MISSED CALLS

WE CAN'T DIE

INSIDE COLLAPSING APARTMENT!

This is Detective Kim

from Northern Police Station.

Is your sister Ms. Seo Ju-hee?

Her company reported her missing

after they couldn't reach her

for four days.

When was the last time you talked to her?

We haven't been in touch

since I live in my work dormitory.

I'll check and let you know.

Sure. Please check and get back to me.

I'M BEGGIN YOU, PLEASE BE QUITE.

CANT LIVE LIKE THIS.

CALL LOG

JU-HEE

The phone you're dialing is turned off.

Please leave a message after a beep.

Just stop it!

I'm not going to let it slide this time.

Seo Ju-hee, stop it.

I said stop!

Didn't you hear it?

They're stomping around now!

It's got to be on purpose!

Yes, it's on purpose.

I'm going to get some evidence this time.

What evidence?

Did you hear that?

You heard that, right?

This apartment is weird!

Stop it!

Seo Ju-hee!

I can't hear anything.

Please stop.

This is our home now.

Adapt and accept it.

Don't cause a scene.

Do you not hear it

or do you refuse to hear it?

She's not home and won't answer my calls.

She's not someone who'd just disappear.

Sure.

Could I talk to someone

who was close to her?

So, even you don't know

where she could be?

No.

What was she like recently?

She asked me if I heard weird sounds

whenever we chatted on the phone.

Weird sounds?

Yes, but I didn't hear anything.

If you remember anything,

here's my contact.

Okay, I will.

Thank you.

Where did she go without her phone?

Who is it?

Could you open the door?

Who are you?

So, you are her sister.

- Do you know my sister?

- Hello. I live downstairs.

Could you be quiet in the evening?

Are you the one

who put the note on my door?

No one's been home for the past few days.

So the noises you heard weren't--

Please do me a favor, okay?

Before I rip your mouth off.

She complained about the noise,

and then disappeared a few days ago?

I haven't seen her in a while either.

And two days ago,

the man downstairs acted

like he'd k*ll me over the noise.

You really don't know anything?

Your sister

She tore through

the whole apartment building,

saying she had to find

the source of the noise.

I understood her pain,

but it's impossible to locate.

Nobody would say it was them.

Especially because she lives in Unit 604,

everyone's being extra cautious.

What about Unit 604?

What's wrong with my home?

A few months ago

Sir, could you explain

what's going on in the basement?

- Oh, my

- Gosh.

What

I always wondered

where the stench came from.

What's all this?

ill*gal dumping that's been piling up

for the past ten years.

I locked the door

so no one could dump there anymore,

but some people still threw garbage

through the window.

They've got no shame.

So you didn't do anything?

No one here has a nose?

Why didn't you file a report

at the district office?

- Well--

- You think we want to let that sit here?

Gosh, Chairwoman.

They refuse to clean private property

with taxpayer money,

and the cleanup is estimated to cost

hundreds of millions of won!

So do we just live

on top of this trash pile?

You have no right to complain.

Who do you think did that?

Would homeowners do this?

It was renters like you!

Because it's not your home.

Excuse me.

I only moved here a week ago,

and I didn't know anything.

Of course, I have the right to complain.

And how are you so sure it was the renters

unless you actually

caught them in the act?

Isn't it obvious?

For goodness' sake.

Who'd want to own a home

in this rundown sh*thole?

Renting's better.

Gosh!

- Mister!

- Yes?

Lock it up, please.

- Sir?

- Yes?

What we were talking about earlier

What happened in Unit 604?

Well--

- Get a move on.

- Yes.

Here I come, ma'am.

You want to take more days off?

Ju-young, we've been working together

for years.

How could you screw me like this?

Something happened to my sister.

I hired you despite your deafness,

and even got you a dorm because

you didn't want to live with your sister.

SPEECH RECOGNITION MODE

Don't you feel bad?

You can't just shove a notice

in my face like that.

You know how things are here.

Even one person off the line

can cause a devastating delay.

YOU'RE NOISE IS CAUSIN ME SO MUCH PAIN.

DO I SOUND LIKE A JOKE?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, JU-YOUNG

HOW TO USE HEARING AID

It's so awkward to record like this.

Anyways, happy birthday.

I was going to write a letter,

but then I heard this new hearing aid

can record

and even play music through Bluetooth.

I know you haven't replaced

your hearing aid in so long,

so I worked hard to save up for you.

I made your favorite dish, japchae, too.

I guess you're home for your birthday.

Ju-young

Don't hate me so much.

By the time you're listening to this,

we'll be face-to-face.

It must be extra awkward.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

How is that sound possible?

Shut the f*ck up, assholes!

Be quiet or I'll k*ll you!

Be quiet, for God's sake!

Hear that?

Who is it?

Who's there?

Ju-young, it's me. Open the door, hurry.

Ju-hee?

Ju-young, it's me. Open the door, hurry.

Ju-young, it's me. Open the door, hurry.

Did you forget the passcode?

Ju-hee.

What's wrong, Ju-hee?

You're

not Ju-hee, right?

A person went missing,

and her sister is unreachable.

- Shouldn't you be worried as her neighbor?

- I'll poke your eyes out!

Can't you be a little more understanding?

Like I said, just get lost

if she doesn't answer,

not bang on the damn door

and bother the whole neighborhood.

If knocking on this door is that noisy,

maybe your ears have a problem.

Whether I knock on the door

or ring the bell, why do you care?

Can you shut your ears?

They're wide open. Look.

Are you about to swing or what?

You were home?

You were home.

What's going on?

He's been knocking around

and causing a ruckus here.

Where the hell have you been?

Are you deaf or something?

Just shut the hell up!

I'm really sorry.

No, not at all.

I'm her sister,

and I didn't know she had a boyfriend.

Well, we haven't been dating that long.

But it has been tough recently.

She stopped answering my calls.

I thought she was ghosting me.

Then she wouldn't answer

her work phone either,

and now you came over.

I'm not sure what's happening with

JU-HEE'S LAST CALLER

Hello?

Why did you ask for a callback?

What are you so curious about?

I'm sorry, but who is this?

She called out of the blue,

and asked about her unit.

What did she ask?

She asked if

The thing is

She asked if a person died there.

It must be that either this young lady

can feel the spirits,

or there really is a ghost.

She'll eventually find out, so I told her.

- A few months ago--

- In my unit?

Yes. A lady who lived in Unit 604

had an unfortunate incident.

She would always complain

that she heard noises.

Then she said

she saw a ghost in the building.

I don't think she was sane.

Then, one day,

we stopped hearing from her.

I thought

I was finally getting some peace.

But then we started to smell a bad stench.

A rotting stench.

No way!

She

hung herself.

Where, in my unit?

Gosh.

I'LL k*ll YOU.

I CAN HEAR YOU MOAN, PISS

It has to be the man from Unit 504.

I told him it wasn't my home.

He seems a bit off. Should I talk to him?

No, please don't.

LOOKING FOR MY SISTER

May I use the washroom?

Sure.

Ki-hoon

Please walk softly.

Right, I'm sorry.

Yes, I unlocked her phone.

No, there isn't anything special.

Must a person die before you investigate?

You know that's not what I'm saying.

The man in Unit 504

is acting suspiciously.

He's been posting threatening notes

on my door, knowing that I'm her sister.

He said he'd rip my mouth off.

Did you see him posting them yourself?

We already questioned everyone

and checked the security cameras.

Security cameras?

Then, did you see her leave?

It's an old apartment,

so there's only one at the entrance.

She wasn't in it,

nor on the roadside cameras nearby.

She wasn't captured at all

on the day of her disappearance.

She left her wallet and cell phone too.

There aren't any traces

of her leaving the apartment.

She could have used another exit.

All the more reason to look into Unit 504.

Yeah?

"Did you write threatening notes?"

Should we go and ask him that?

That's not what I meant.

Ju-young, I understand

what you're going through.

But you can't ask for things

that don't make sense.

LOOKING FOR MY SISTER

Thank you for today.

Not at all.

He's the Unit 504 tenant.

I'll talk to him.

What do you want at this hour?

You're being rude.

Two people.

I'll say this for the final time.

Please be quiet at night, I'm begging you.

So? How was he?

- Weird, right?

- Don't even open the door next time.

I think he was hiding something

in his hand.

LOOKING FOR MY SISTER

What are you doing?

Is something there?

Kiddo, are you okay?

What are you doing there?

I'm sorry. I didn't mean to startle you.

- Here.

- Thanks.

If any of my family disappeared,

I'd post flyers too.

But this would upset

the resident association's chairwoman.

There's a rally for a reconstruction

resolution in two days.

What's that got to do

with finding my sister?

Well

Ms. Seo

Would you live in a place

where people died or went missing?

It'd be tough to get approval

for reconstruction with grim rumors.

Even if we get approval

for reconstruction,

if nobody signs the pre-construction deal,

it'll be a bust.

No wonder she doesn't like

what you're doing.

When your sister caused a scene,

looking for the source of the noise,

she even yanked her hair.

Be careful.

If the reconstruction proposal

gets rejected,

someone might end up dying.

Ju-young.

LOOKING FOR MY SISTER

I see you're finally back home.

Ju-hee.

Are you okay? What happened?

Stop it, you're not even

remotely interested in me.

You're wondering why

the girl you hate came back, right?

I actually really missed you,

and I was so scared.

Ju-hee

Ju-hee!

Wait, no!

Please be quiet, okay?

Sons of b*tches

Why are you doing this to me?

Who's there?

Who is it?

I can't live like this.

Why would a resident from the fifth floor

jump off the seventh?

You can't go in there.

Ms. Seo?

Are you okay?

Detective, that's the man from Unit 504.

He's the one who has been threatening me.

Ju-hee could be in his unit.

We must search his place.

Are you inside Unit 504?

Did you find anyone inside?

No one, sir.

Copy.

It could be a simple accident.

We can't jump to

any conclusions right now, so

Does that look like an accident?

I understand you're having a hard time,

but you can't make false accusations

based on suspicion.

That's not how this works.

I heard her calling for me

through the sewage pipe.

Look at her, talking crazy.

What did you say?

Hearing voices through pipes?

That doesn't sound crazy to you?

Kidnapping?

Are you trying to screw everyone over?

Why can't you just stay quiet?

Why do you have to get in everyone's way?

You're the ones who are getting in my way.

- What?

- What the

It's not like you'll help.

- Look at this girl talk back.

- She must be crazy.

Maybe Unit 604 is really cursed.

Everyone who lived there was weird.

I know!

The man from before,

and the crazy b*tch upstairs.

This girl and her sister.

The man and the crazy b*tch?

Who are you talking about?

Did something else happen in that unit?

If you stir up trouble again,

I won't let it slide.

Got that?

Who is it?

Hi, I'm from Unit 604.

Could I speak to you for a moment?

Make yourself at home.

Thank you.

It's my daughter.

Sorry for poking around.

She's adorable.

What did you want to talk about?

The chairwoman--

She lives next door.

You have to be careful.

Everyone can hear each other here.

She mentioned "a man in unit 604"

and "a crazy b*tch."

I guess they're previous tenants.

Do you know who they are?

RESIDENT ASSOCIATION

2022 GENERAL ASSEMBLY

The former chairwoman.

She lived in Unit 704 a year ago.

How many times do I have to tell you?

Didn't I tell you to be careful?

If you continue to be noisy,

I'll make sure you can't renew your lease.

I'm sorry.

She was so sensitive to noise,

so I tried to be careful.

But she would still come up frequently

to complain about my child's footsteps.

Be quiet!

You're driving me crazy!

It's not my fault, I was quiet.

I'll shut you up

It's noisy for you too, right?

I told you I won't stay quiet--

Shut up!

Too loud!

Keep quiet, I said!

The man in Unit 604, just below her,

who was also suffering from the noise,

k*lled her.

- Please be quiet!

- God damn it!

She tapped the wall and floor for help

until she died,

but the residents ignored it,

thinking it was just noise.

All the residents

agreed to keep silent about it

fearing it would affect

the reconstruction approval.

What happened to him?

He disappeared.

No one could find him afterward.

So he's still not caught?

Ju-young, that man from Unit 504

who died today

Why do you think he died?

Some people said they saw that k*ller man

around the apartment,

while others said

he could've been k*lled by another tenant.

This place is like

a spider web of grudges.

So, who lives above me in Unit 704?

It's noisy every night, strange noises.

Unit 704 is vacant right now.

Vacant?

Ki-hoon

I heard there was a m*rder in Unit 704.

Could you look into it?

SEO JU-YOUNG

Residents of Samil Apartments,

it's truly unfortunate!

With poor materials

and creaking facilities,

we're slowly withering away,

enduring daily noise between floors.

We've done nothing wrong!

Due to this aging

and ailing apartment facility,

Mr. Park Geun-bae from Unit 504

in Building Five has passed away.

This isn't an accident.

It's m*rder by the city,

ignoring the need for reconstruction!

Everything happening right now

is so tragic and heartbreaking.

At times like this,

we need to stick together even more!

Unite with one goal!

What is she doing?

What's wrong with her?

So, this upsets you

and my missing sister doesn't?

You all know she disappeared!

Are you out of your mind?

This is an important rally!

Do you want to see what crazy looks like?

Screw your reconstruction!

Should I let the world know

how people have been dying here?

Did you really go mad?

You've gone crazy over the reconstruction,

and you don't even care

if people die or go missing!

My sister!

I'm sure that k*ller took her!

She is somewhere inside this apartment!

I heard her voice!

Ju-young!

- Calm down.

- Let go of me!

What's with you?

Please calm down!

Let go!

Calm down, Ju-young!

One moment, please.

- Let's go.

- Let go

Come on. Let's go.

LOOKING FOR MY SISTER

The k*ller that you mentioned yesterday

could still be somewhere in the apartment.

I looked into the m*rder in Unit 704.

They issued a search warrant

and even put out an APB on him,

but still couldn't find him

The security cameras were only installed

in front of the elevator and the entrance.

This is the last time he was captured.

m*rder SUSPECT WANTED

He was never captured on

outside security cameras.

It means he disappeared

within this apartment complex.

No traces of leaving

the apartment complex,

just like Ju-hee.

What if there is a space here

that we haven't searched,

that's tucked away from people

You'll go inside now?

We should inform the police--

You heard our phone conversation.

I told them I was getting death threats,

and even heard her voice

through the pipes,

but they said

there was nothing to investigate.

Look.

No one cares.

I'm the only one

who can find her.

Look, Ju-young.

There's a door here too.

There are two paths.

I think we should split up.

We need to hurry. It'll be night soon.

DAD, LITTLE SISTER, BIG SISTER, MOM

It's your fault.

Where am I

sh*t!

m*rder SUSPECT WANTED

Ki-hoon?

Ki-hoon?

I think there's more space over here.

I think we should take a look inside.

Everyone's noisy, except me.

Ki-hoon, what are you doing?

It's not my fault. I was quiet.

I'll shut you up

Ki-hoon?

Ki-hoon!

What's wrong?

Ju-young!

Hey, there.

Are you alone here?

Can you hear me?

Hey.

Can you hear me?

Congenital hearing loss.

The hearing aid must be uncomfortable.

He takes it off.

Yeon-woo, where did you hide

the hearing aid this time?

Honey, the hearing aid.

Excuse me

What happened?

You were babbling on about

finding someone in the basement.

So I called the police,

and they're searching it.

Get some rest. Your body must be in shock.

What on earth were you doing in there?

- You're lucky I was there to save you.

- Thank you.

By the way

the only kids I've seen here

are your son

and the daughter of the lady in Unit 804.

Did the lady in Unit 804

say she had a daughter?

Yes.

Why do you ask?

Her daughter died on the spot

when a delivery van hit her.

A few years ago.

That lunatic. She's still at it.

Where is it?

Why does he keep taking

the hearing aid off?

It's because you heard something

you shouldn't have.

If you hear it more,

you'll die.

Did you also hear something

in the basement?

I'm looking for someone.

Don't go there.

DETECTIVE KIM

Ki-hoon. Let me through

- Ki-hoon

- You can't go in there!

Let me through!

This camcorder can save files

to a phone via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

Though the camcorder was damaged,

the phone was unlocked,

so we could check the saved videos,

despite some corrupted footage.

Ms. Seo

So, the two of you went to the basement

to look for your sister,

split up and someone started chasing you?

And you don't remember anything afterward?

Yes.

That means someone else was there.

There was a steel door inside,

and another space beyond that.

I need to check that space out--

Ms. Seo, there is no steel door.

We went there and checked every corner.

I'm telling you I saw it.

If I don't go and find Ju-hee--

You saw what happened to Ki-hoon!

Stop causing trouble you can't handle!

You may end up on the suspect list

if you keep this up!

You said you live

in a work dormitory, right?

Why don't you stay there for a few days

It's your fault.

Where is it?

I'm going to record evidence this time.

Is it here?

What is all this?

Don't worry, Ye-na.

No one will hurt you or Mommy now.

Mommy will live here with you forever.

What is it?

The lady next door keeps bothering you?

It's okay.

I can k*ll her like the lady downstairs.

Did you hear what I said?

What were you doing alone?

You did more than just listen.

Ju-young.

Ju-hee.

Ju-hee?

Ju-hee.

Ju-hee.

Ju-hee.

Ju-hee, please.

Are you okay?

It's okay. Everything's okay.

Let's get out of here.

Let's go.

Found you.

Ju-young?

Ju-young.

Open this door.

Hide in here.

I'll lure her deeper inside.

You escape through that door.

Open this door!

It's dangerous here. You have to get out.

That woman was still alive, wasn't she?

I heard what you said at home.

I thought I destroyed this.

How did you watch that?

You said she tapped the wall for help.

You saw it with your eyes.

That's how you know.

That woman

kept trying to separate me

from my daughter.

I really had no choice.

I couldn't

let her live.

Are you insane?

Your daughter is dead.

Who said my daughter's dead?

You saw her when you came to my place.

You're just like me.

SPEECH RECOGNITION MODE

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Because of people complaining

about Ye-na running at home,

I let Ye-na play outside.

I should have protected her.

She went outside and

She was run over by that huge truck.

It's all your fault.

She died because of the noise made

by all of you!

Why?

What did I do wrong?

Why did that b*tch

and your sister mess with us?

Crazy b*stards

I'm sorry!

I didn't want to k*ll them!

What are you saying?

My sister is alive.

What's with you?

Help me, please!

Help!

Help!

Please help!

It's nothing. It's okay.

Don't listen.

Good afternoon.

I moved into the unit above you

a few days ago.

Hello.

Do you live alone?

With my sister.

Right. I brought this for you.

I'LL BE A GOOD NEIGHBOR

I'll try to be as quiet as possible,

but if you hear any noise,

feel free to let me know.

The unit above me

was really noisy at night.

I don't know how people can be so noisy

day and night--

You have to be careful.

Everyone can hear each other here.
