Hey! What's up!
Did you get may money?
Oh, money?
Oh, I did. I did like two days ago right?
Yeah, OK. Uh, my boat and my shop would be ok, right?
Don't worry man. I'm taking great care of her.
You just have worry about the rest, OK?
No, no problem. I will be ready soon.
All right, Listen! The boat owner he is a *** jerk man.
You have to send the rest on time.
You must send the rest on time.
If not,
you might lose everything you've sent so far. OK?
Did you get yourself the ticket?
I'm leaving next week!
Round trip?
One way ticket!
Good boy! See you in Palau.
See you in Palau.
Hidden cards.
I'll raise another two grand.
Five grand altogether.
Made is ten thousand.
Give the last winning to the boy as a tip.
If you're going to fold, do it quietly.
Things just got interesting.
Good luck to you.
What's the full betting amount?
Twenty seven thousand, sir.
I'll make it that.
Sign here, please.
You must have some hand.
Are you reading my cards or something?
You got me.
Why don't you just drop dead.
I'll call your twenty seven.
I knew just the guy like you. He ended up chopping his own fingers
and ate them right there and then.
Swearing he'll never play again.
What's the pot now?
Fifty four grand in total.
Let's play.
He swore 'never again' He swore and swore.
But people just don't change.
He turned up at the gambling house
before his fingers were fully digested
with the wound still dripping blood.
He played again. And lost all he had... again
Is that the end of the story?
Then the punk opens up his other hand.
He realized that fingers are not to blame.
It's the eyes' fault. What the eyes see begets greed.
The moment he realized that. He pushed his fingers into the eyes.
If you're gonna peep at other's cards, do it right.
Don't blame it on the eyes.
I'll call.
Total pot is 153 grand
plus 10% interest
and handling fee of 5%.
The total principal is 189,200. Please confirm
Correct.
Showdown?
Yes.
I read you.
You got an ace two pair, right?
If I couldn't beat that, I wouldn't have raised.
You're still young Remember the story I told you.
Can I help?
She had a company.
She's still asleep. We drank till morning.
Are you her boyfriend?
I don't know that yet. We only met last night.
Do you have a message her?
No. That's okay.
Long time.
What brings you here?
I can't see you unless I visit.
Where could I possibly go?
You should eat better.
You look gaunt.
Hang on.
It's maxed out.
Come to my office.
Give me another one now.
Come see me in the office. We need to talk.
Was that your sugar daddy? He smelt like money.
Shut up, punk.
Man, it's muggy in here.
Long time no see. You have a good job.
You scrub people?
You're gonna kill me with a stare?
I'll pay back, you ***!
Don't sweat it!
With your heart, liver, kidneys and eye balls, you can save six people.
You ratted us out, didn't you?
What?
You got wound up about losing So you went to the cops, right?
I don't know what you're talking about!
I expected you to say that, too. Hold his legs!
Let go!
Damn it.
Let him go.
You heard me.
What brings you here?
We need his body, too.
You think you can just ask nicely and get what you want?
I'm busy right now.
I'm not saying. I'll take him for free.
You're embarrassing me in front of my boys.
I'm asking nicely.
And if I said 'no'?
Get the hell out of here.
Get him.
- How many? - Two.
Get out.
Kill them!
***!
Hurry Now. They might just be able to sew them back on.
As for you, we need to talk.
Me?
Don't kill me!
If I was gonna kill you, would I have saved you?
Are you a good swimmer?
Get him out in five minutes.
He'll die, too.
Let's go for three.
Four minutes sounds right.
Man, you're loud even gagged.
Gambler.
Womanizer.
Gambler.
Womanizer.
Two of a kind, aren't you? Say hi to each other.
Look.
Where does this number come from?
Accumulated interest and the finger price.
Rubbish! I wanna talk to your boss.
What's this punk doing here?
So I can take care of them together.
Take care of who?!
I told you to find out about him, not to take care of him!
I'm sorry, sir
Let him go,
Consider this a bad mix-up,
Let's not see each other again.
I knew that bit was cursed!
Are you playing godfather?
I won't touch that *** again even if you begged.
What do you think life is?
Life is a process of decaying.
You don't know that when you're young.
That's why money and dignity is important. You're a swimming instructor?
Pardon? Ye... yes.
How much can you pay up a month?
I'll pay up. All of it!
You'll be sixty by the time you've paid up the interest.
We met on money terms
but we can talk as man to man.
What is it you want to say?
I can forget about the repayment if you do me a simple favor.
Favor? What favor?
Rule no. 1, only I get to ask questions.
Two, you'll obey unconditionally.
Three, betrayal means death.
But... I'm not a gangster
Should we talk about repayment terms?
Do I have a choice here?
Choice?
You don't know why you lost money, do you?
Choice belongs to the winner.
If the winner presents you with a choice, it means you don't have one.
I won't sell myself for sex.
I won't buy it.
Or my kidneys or eye balls, for that matter.
I have my own.
I don't kill.
I haven't either for a long time.
Until this one.
The dope is encased in plastic
and swallowed.
Sometime the couriers get seasick,
the disgorged stuff would be over 10 meters long.
Some of them died
of an overdose.
Then we preferred jusing the back passage.
Starve the boys for a day and clean out the intestines.
If you fill up the guts, you can insert a sizable amount.
But after the dope is taken out
the hole remains open the whole time like a damn drainage.
*** leaks out anywhere.
Quite a sight that is.
This tastes good
When they get caught
they jumped into the sea without hesitation
Most of them never made it back
when we hear the news about man-eating shark
we assume that's what took their lives
those sharks have a taste for dope
rather than for human flesh
The couriers were called Marine Boys
now it's tricky for one man to carry a big mount
the beauty of this plan is no customs
'Snout' would make things easier
Is he still not reachable?
We don't need him
Have you found a new Marine Boy?
Yes, we have.
Yeah?
Where is he now?
By now...
he'll be at the airport.
Who are you?
You're under arrest for illegal gambling.
Arrest me? For what? Who are you?
This is a mistake.
Please look me up.
He's right. You are banned from leaving the country.
There's gotta be a mistake!
Come on, let's go.
I'm the victim. I lost everything.
Is that a crime?
It's not. But when we raid a gambling house.
We make sure that some of the regulars are
sent away to set an example.
You've gotta be grateful that you're in my hands.
But you're from Narcotics.
I don't discriminate crime. Why were you running?
I just got fed up with this country.
You sure are Korean.
What I'm asking is, why did you
want to run after meeting with KANG?
I'm not interested in you. What did KANG say to you?
I don't know about anything else.
He asked me to do a delivery.
Yeah? KANG's been meeting Yakuzas
involved with some sort of new drug.
How can you be sure that the delivery goods is drugs?
You don't have to see to believe.
All you gotta do is to play along.
I'll get his *** this time,
no matter what.
I'm screwed.
Just this one job and I no longer owe you?
I'm a business man, not a con man
How will you guarantee that?
How about you?
How will you guarantee that I can trust you?
I'm young. I don't want to spend the rest of my life on the run.
Good thinking.
I have a company. Wait outside.
I'm busy.
I have something to talk to you about, too.
I'll call you.
Maybe I should...
Sit.
Yes, sir.
PIN number is the same.
Mind your own business.
What should I do now?
Get used to the sea water. I can't help you with that.
Excuse me,
Miss CHOI.
We're from the police.
Yes?
We have some questions for you LEE Ji-ho was found dead this morning.
Who is this man? Your chauffeur?
Nobody.
Please come with us. It won't take long
I should get going...
Hang on a sec.
Pardon?
Oh, thank you.
You'll wait for me, right?
Yes?
I'm here to see the manager.
How can I help you?
Do you know a girl called Yuri?
She used her card here til it maxed up.
Please have a seat. What would you like to drink?
If you intend to keep running this place, don't sell her drugs.
You can't do that?
If I knew that the card was yours, I wouldn't have sold anything to her.
You know me?
A little.
What did you give her?
Benzodiazepine.
Pricey for a nervine.
She can get it anywhere even if I don't sell it to her.
It'll be difficult without cash.
You monitor her statement?
You know nothing about women.
You have a nice place.
Where are you now?
Long story. I won't be much longer. I just need to give the keys to the owner.
Ladies from your class are all asking for you.
It's a girl, isn't it? I'm sweating here trying to cover your ***.
Hello?
Are you ignoring me?
- Hey! - What?
- Please just cover me for a bit more. - What?
- I gotta go. - Hello?
- My battery's running out. - Well, charge it up!
No manners...
Shouldn't you at least pretend you're sorry?
Why should I?
Because of you,
some poor punk got beaten to death with a frozen sausage.
What?
Do you take me for KANG's ***?
Are you his daughter, then?
How can you go behind the man.
Who pays for your fancy car and house...
Damn it.
Come up and clean up if you want.
It's apartment 510.
Why didn't you call me?
I would have if your phone was on.
Please send a cleaning lady for 510.
She should at least say sorry.
510, was it?
I'll see you tomorrow, then.
Why?
You know why. I'll pick you up in the morning.
Does the new card work?
I haven't used it yet. You know that.
Take it.
You should have some cash on you.
I'll see you tomorrow.
How much is the rent for a place like this?
You owe me your life.
Let's call it even. I'll leave once bleeding stops.
Don't assume that you know me. I'm not anybody's woman.
And I'm not anybody's button man either.
Why did you hide then?
Me? Hide?
The door opened in front of me. That's all...
What are you doing here?
You gave me your keys to drive you home.
You don't remember that?
Why didn't you say no?
If I said no...
oh, forget it...
What the hell am I doing here?
I'm supposed to be in Palau by now.
Got any aspirin?
I got a headache.
You talk a lot. You won't be bored on a desert island.
Palau is not a deserted island. You don't know where it is, do you?
I'll show you,
Come on.
Right here are the Palau islands.
The largest island is called Babelthuap.
Babelthuap is the dream island
for scuba divers all over the world.
It must be pretty
Not just pretty.
They look so tiny on the map.
But from above, these tiny islands
look like group of little blobs.
Some describe it
as droplets of green mercury
dispersed on clear blue glass.
It's done.
Excused me?
The bleeding.
You look prettier with you shades off.
They all say that. I look better with anything off.
Yuri's father got killed when his business was at its peak.
Mr. KANG brought her up since Even paid for her to study in the States.
But he dragged her back to Korea right after high school.
Why?
She had become a druggie.
After he brought her back from the States she didn't eat, starving herself to skin and bones
But for some reason, she only ate at that restaurant.
Mr. KANG owns that restaurant?
And so, Mr. KANG bought it.
She must have eaten well since.
She has never set her foot there once.
It's totally one-sided.
It will become a two-way thing one day, no?
- Mr. CHO? - What?
You can go home now. I'm not going anywhere.
You won't say hello to your father?
Don't wanna mess up my dress.
Pardon?
I said I prayed.
It's me.
I'll go into the town first then
meet you at the restaurant, Cheon-soo.
I'll go to the restaurant with you.
I'm hungry.
Why are you telling me to meet KANG? I have no business with him.
Make up an excuse.
Get close to him, like a family.
Family, my ***. He won't let me ask a question.
He likes well-dressed people. You look good today.
Excuse me?
What happened to your nose?
I ran into some thugs.
Thugs? Did you see their faces?
No. It happened so suddenly. I've never seen such a sneaky punk before.
Did you see a doctor?
Nothing wrong with the bone but.
I was told to keep off water for a while.
I'm sorry, sir.
I need to make a phone call.
Your body is not yours any more.
"Your body is not yours anymore."
Don't laugh! Or I'll tell him the truth.
Are you two lovers?
Why is he so concerned about your nose?
Because it's a serious injury!
You think it's nothing?
Drugs, isn't it? That's what he does.
That's his business. I have nothing to do with it.
Why don't you bet your life on it, too?
Excuse me?
You know where I live.
I'll be going to Japan for a few days. Be ready while I'm gone.
Are you getting yourself used to the sea water?
It's not as easy as it sounds...
Did you think it would be easy?
There is a saying that 'In other man's money, is a knife'.
A gambler should know that expression.
Deep inside the heart. Where is your heart?
Sir, you seem to like old sayings...
I mean, well-read or something...
It comes with the age.
Let me tell you something. This is the rendezvous point.
Right here?
What are you doing? Going in the water
with an open wound?
It's good to me out. We should do this every week.
Every week? Did you take
a butane tank instead of O²?
Come on.
There is a whale down there. I'll catch it and take off for good.
What the hell are you talking about?
Honey!
Oil boy at your service!
It's definitely there.
Excuse me, sir!
Yes?
Where are you headed?
I'm here to see someone.
I didn't know he was your guest.
He's my boyfriend.
You busy?
What are you so late?
Sorry, mate. You should say hi.
Hi to who? To you?
Will you give us a ride?
Oh... of course!
Why didn't you call me if you were going to be late.
Here we go.
Okay.
Two, three.
I'll buy this boat and this shop.
Is this Palau?
Where do you want to be?
Anywhere but here.
Let's go out! Two unfortunate kids.
Good to see you!
What happened to the other guy?
He's dead. This is Cheon? Soo.
Nice to meet you.
Be careful with her. She's dangerous.
I can only die once.
Have you heard her sing?
No.
You should hear it before you die.
Before I die?
That won't happen.
I don't sing in front of just anybody.
Anybody?
Excuse me.
That's the last.
What are you talking about?
The card holder came by.
I can see why you're depressed.
I'm so fed up.
I'll do anything to get out of here.
Good thinking.
What are we toasting on?
Palau, of course! For our dream!
It's not my dream.
What's your dream?
I don't remember.
Come with me.
Only if we never come back.
Are you crazy?
There is no whale here!
Mark the point where we were today.
Don't go too far out.
You have an incoming call.
Hello.
How's the preparation going?
I'm out in the sea right now.
We have a date.
All we need is a good weather.
But... hello? Hello?
What is this?
That's what you'll be delivering.
You can keep it for a souvenir.
It's a new stuff.
How much if diluted?
At least a container load smuggled in by one man.
Are you surprised?
This is big. KANG is an evil man.
You're the good, then?
12 years ago, KANG's dope was found
in a Narcotics cop's car.
KANG and his partner CHOI and
'Snout,' the cop were a dream team.
Then one night, CHOI got shot dead
and 'Snout’ arrested red-handed.
It was obvious that KANG sold out his partners to save himself
but he was let off on insufficient evidence.
Did KANG tell you about Marine Boys?
No, why?
That's what the Yakuzas call the boys that transport drugs.
Why didn't he tell you about Marine Boys?
Because they play such a huge role? No,
because all Marine Boys are killed
once the job is done.
Marine Boys are not the secret of the organization
but a potential threat that could expose their secret.
You'll come ashore over there? That's all?
What if... What if I don't go there?
What?
What if you waited for me here.
We wouldn't be running away.
But just disappear into thin air.
I'll wait for you here.
I'll wait for you here.
Come back alive.
Hello? Hello?
You gotta get on the boat midway.
I go on a boat?
Were you gonna swim all the way back from Japan, then?
No.
If you miss the boat, then you'll have to.
Should I go to your office?
You don't know Yuri's place, do you?
I'll tell you where it is.
Yes, sir.
Here you go.
Get a cab.
I have money.
You don't have to pay it back.
Sleep well. Tomorrow, you're a free man.
I'm sorry. I overslept. Where's Cheon-soo?
He's away on business... He'll be back tomorrow.
He's gone to Japan for a day?
But how do you know that?
I saw the flight ticket on Mr. KANG's desk.
Excuse me.
Which do you think looks better?
Stripe... works for me.
You think so, too, huh? Why did he go to Japan? For dope?
What dope? What are you talking about?
It's supposed to be a secret from me?
Did Mr. KANG say something to you?
