Are you new to the business? We miss more than we hit
You boys have no patience
You know how much the company's paying for your futiIe attempts?
I'm not competent and you have no passion
That's why we get nothing
The attitude runs in the genes
Come again?

They're from chemosynthetic ecosystem
Chemo- what?
Korean, pIease
FoIlow me
Let me show you
This is the photosynthetic ecosystem where we Iive in
This is the chemosynthetic ecosystem
where no sunIight reaches
They've come a Iong way How did they end up
Driven by shortage of food, perhaps
Ecosystems apart survival is stilI a bitch
But the environment is compIeteIy different
Must have mutated
Like we adapted to Iiving on this oil rig
Can't you adapt to poor Chi-sun Iike they adapted?
HelIo, Iittle feIla?

It's everyone's faiIure
A faiIure?
FaiIing is not the problem Your giving up is
I'm not going anywhere
Hae-jun
Stubborn as a mule
How come it's always war between you and the captain?
Aren't you tired?
Shut up

He never cared about finding oiI
We're packing because he has no faith
Jeong-man wiII join us to oversee the withdrawaI
Good

My gIorious scar is embedded deep in the heart
When you're exposed to hot seawater of 120'A.
the pressure cracks up your skin
Not something Captain Theory wouId understand
Don't throw cold water on our conversation
She has a taIent for that My taIent is reviving it

I'lI go talk to him
Let him be
Where did she faII from?
Top of the derrick

Considering the circumstances, nothing suggests murder
Draw up a death certificate Suicide as C.O.D.
I'II get the rest of the paperwork
What's the rush? There is a procedure
What are you insinuating?
We shouId notify the police and arrange transfer of the body
Did anyone here have a reason to kiII her?
Did she have a reason to take her own Iife?
They can't get a chopper up in this weather
Let's talk about the report Iater
Wait

CouId this be... semen?
Where the heII is he?
Bastard
What do you want, man?

Hyeon-jeong wanted to teII me something
Where are you going?
Come in
Is that you, captain?
What have you got for me?
Doc is dead
What?
Uncle?
What happened here?
Who would do something Iike this?
Her body's gone, too
He knew that the doc wiII reveaI the truth
He kiIled doc to shut him up
Did you secureIy Iock him up?
I'm sure
Then, how did he kilI doc?
He's gone mad
We need to remain caIm
We gotta kilI him before he gets to us
Psycho murderer
Let's go check on him
Wait It may not be Chi-sun
He's not himseIf anymore He's a psychopath
HeIlo...?

Jong-yun
HelIo? HeIlo?
SatelIite phone is dead
There is nothing
It's not power failure What's the probIem?
How did it go?
Chi-sun was right We gotta get outta here
- What are you saying? - You're not making any sense
Everyone's going insane
What's wrong with you, man?
I saw them with my own eyes
The monster kilIed both Hyeon-jeong and doc
What are you doing?
UncIe
I gotta see for myseIf
If it's true, it must be out hunting for more food
It'lI soon be our turn
I'II come with you
Don't go
We're not going?
The best strategy is to stay in one pIace
Just go with them
If you insist
- It's us - It's us
Copy. Come to us
Okay
Hurry
I had to convince him to come...
I don't have a cIear shot

HoId your breath
- HoId him - I got him
Sounds Iike a sigh of relief
Why did you come back?
What are you taIking about?
I know you volunteered
- You knew something - Stop it
He threw the lighter when the beast's skin ruptured
At the monster's body fluid
The Iiquid was flammabIe
Like petroIeum
You know that beast
Why do you have that Iighter?
It beIongs to Hyeon-jeong
You're hiding something
He can't be UncIe, teII us he's wrong
4 peopIe have died We don't know how many more
It Iasts for over 24 hours
20 years ago, we made an amazing discovery
It's been over 30 hours That tiny thing
Temperature?
Over 1200.'.I, isn't that amazing?
It's the oiI itseIf
We discovered new fueI
Our country couId produce our own fueI
But, it's a Iiving organism
You said you'd do anything to find a drop
But, it's a Iiving organism
This isn't right
Soon after, they caused an accident
Therefore, Sector 7 was shut down
But finding oiI resumed Iast year
started breeding one of them again with Hyeon-jeong
Then something horribIe happened
You created a monster
PeopIe are in danger
It's worth the risk
You're becoming a monster I must teII the others
I'II teII them myseIf when the time comes
Let go of me
Just hear me out
You created that beast?
Instead of driIIing for oiI, you were breeding a monster
I'm sorry. I got them kiIIed
BIood is on my hands
Sector 7 was our dream
Dream of a Iifetime
Hae-jun
PeopIe died because of you I'II never forgive you
I'II pay for what I did
But, we gotta get out of here now
You Ieave! I'II never abandon Sector 7
We gotta go now

Sector 7 is a vast offshore oiI fieId Iocated 8,000 ft beIow sea Ievel
in the southern tip of Jeju Island
and is believed to hoId 100 biIIion barreIs of oiI
In 1978, Korean and Japanese governments signed a 50-year
joint oiI deveIopment program
but with Japan 's withdrawaI in 1986, the project was put on hoId indefiniteIy
If the deveIopment fails to resume by 2028,
Sector 7 wiIl become subject to territoriaI dispute
