-[Na-ra] Where's JENNIE? -[Se-chan] JENNIE's outfit is cute today.
How cute is JENNIE today?
Gosh, she startled me. She's dressed like a cheerleader.
[JENNIE] Hello.
-JENNIE. What's this? -[Tae-hyun] You look like a freshman.
[Jae-seok] It's the 2010s.
What are you wearing?
[Se-chan] Today, I stand out too much even from afar.
[Tae-hyun] Did you dress up as yourself today?
[Na-ra] That looks so tacky.
-This jacket was hard to get. -[Na-ra laughs]
That's right.
What's this, JENNIE?
JENNIE, why is your face so puffy?
-JENNIE, did you just wake up? -[Na-ra] You should've brought your eyes.
JENNIE isn't looking up.
I wore glasses. My face is a bit puffy today.
-[Na-ra] Bring your eyes next time, okay? -Okay.
All right. She's so cute.
-What are you? Ginyu Force? -Today…
Are you Ginyu Force from Dragon Ball?
I'm certain she's Ginyu Force.
Go, "Ginyu Force!"
Ginyu Force!
-Why did we come to a university today? -Seriously.
The incident will happen at a university.
It seems that way.
Hold on. In 2011,
-JENNIE was in middle school. -I was 15. That's right.
I was in seventh grade.
-Really? -Yes.
I remember 2011 clearly.
-I was in the army. -I see.
-In 2011, I… Hold on. -I was a soldier.
I think I remember what I did.
I trained for rowing on Infinite Challenge.
-I see. -I see.
-How do you remember everything? -Rowing.
I trained for rowing in 2011.
What did I do in 2011?
[Na-ra] What did I do in 2011?
[Na-ra exclaims] They must be having a welcoming ceremony.
They're recruiting students for clubs.
What's this?
[Na-ra] I want to join a club.
[Jae-seok] Are we freshmen?
-Shouldn't we join a club? -[Na-ra] We should.
[reporter] The university campus is bustling with students.
The clubs have set out to recruit new students.
[reporter 2] On a university campus, blue tents that promote clubs
are lined up.
I'm looking forward to joining a club. It's exciting.
[student] It's fun to watch students run the booths enthusiastically.
It's an opportunity to make different kinds of friends.
[Jung-ha] I feel like a university student.
-[Jung-ha laughs] -Really?
[Jae-seok laughs]
You know, they move differently.
-I know. -The movement of youth.
-They're energetic. -Yes. It shows in their movements.
-They're healthy. -It's different.
[Na-ra] We can move like that.
Listen. You can open a business too.
-[exclaims] -[JENNIE laughs]
-The extras always ignore us. -They ignore us.
They carry on by themselves.
-They can't see us. -Seriously. Can't you see us?
Can't you see us?
Welcome, freshmen!
They're welcoming us. We must be freshmen.
-Yes. -Hello.
Hello.
We're freshmen.
-[chanting] Renaissance! -Renaissance!
-Come on! -Hip-hop!
I'm scared.
-Hip-hop! -I guess we need to join a club.
Hip-hop.
-Hipster. -Yes, hip-hop.
-Say, "Ho!" -Ho!
♪ The man who took the scene by storm ♪
-Yes. -Is this a hip-hop club?
University is all about freedom.
-Find freedom at Nakwon University. -Freedom. Yes.
-Yo, freedom. -Yo, freedom.
Boots and cats and boots and cats!
-Boots and cats and boots and cats! -Hip-hop!
You don't move like a university student.
-What do I move like? -A senior citizen.
You didn't move like a university student.
I moved like a hip-hop musician. Boots and cats.
JENNIE, let's join a club today.
-It's a movie I starred in. -Tae-hyun.
My goodness, this is incredible.
Is this a movie club?
Yes, it is.
[JENNIE] Se-chan, all of this must be a clue.
[Se-chan] That's right. It must be.
-What could it be? Seriously. -There must be something.
I can't do anything because everything seems suspicious.
[Jae-seok] What?
-What's this? -Are you interested in entrepreneurship?
-Let's build connections… -Yes.
…study, and open a business so that we can succeed in life.
If you join Fly Together,
you can get information
and study ways to better yourselves by talking about entrepreneurship.
If this is 2011, you should invest in stocks or Bitcoin.
-We should hurry up. -We should hurry up and buy Bitcoin.
Invest in Bitcoin. You'll make it big.
If you invest in Bitcoin, you'll be able to buy all of these buildings.
-If it's 2011, invest in Bitcoin. -[Se-chan] Buy anything.
It isn't too late. Invest in Bitcoin.
I'm from the future.
Buy anything. I'm telling you this.
[JENNIE] You gave him advice.
-Renaissance! -Renaissance!
You can be the next Picasso!
-Renaissance! -You said nothing when we were here.
What if we can't?
You suddenly started when we came here.
-Freshmen, show us your skills. -Show us your skills.
-Renaissance! -Renaissance!
This is me.
I'll draw your portrait.
-A portrait. -I'll draw your portrait.
-Go ahead. -Then please draw his portrait.
Whenever I do this, they exaggerate my protruding mouth.
[student] Please show me a big smile.
-What? -She told me to smile.
You're smiling.
Is it going well?
Ta-da.
What's this?
-What's this? -It looks exactly like you.
It looks exactly like you.
-What's this? -Renaissance!
-What's this? -What's this?
-Are you kidding me? -This is…
-You wasted our time. -What's this?
I thought he'd be good at drawing.
-It's a mess. -What was that?
[Jae-seok] This club is the most ridiculous.
-[Se-chan] It's a mess. It's the worst. -This club…
-This club is the worst. -Art Club is the worst.
We shouldn't get sidetracked.
That's right. We need to find the clues.
Are you making ramyeon?
-Yes. -Gosh.
-Please give us a bite. -Please.
[Se-chan] JENNIE got lured by ramyeon.
-Ramyeon. -It's Lee Kyung-kyu's ramyeon.
-It came out in 2011. -That's right.
-My goodness. -JENNIE, is it tasty?
I'll join this club.
Chicken Michelin.
[Tae-hyun] Can I have one too?
Is this for us to eat?
[music starts playing]
What's going on? Hold on. Look at that.
They're suddenly going somewhere.
-What? -Why? What's going on?
[Jae-seok] What?
-[Se-chan] You were making ramyeon. -What?
Why is everyone leaving?
-What's going on? -You're joking.
-[Jung-ha] Really? -Is it a flash mob?
-[Se-chan] My goodness. -[JENNIE] What?
-What? -[Se-chan] I have goose bumps.
-My goodness. -What?
-I have goose bumps.
What?
-What? -I have goose bumps.
What's this? Look at that. Look at the way young people move.
-[Na-ra] Is it different? -Yes.
-It's different. -Isn't that a popular dance?
But they're an art club.
-[Na-ra] What are they doing? -[Jae-seok] What are they doing?
-Are they cheerleaders? -[Na-ra] This is very sudden.
[Jae-seok] I know this song.
♪ Even if you push me away I'll come back to you ♪
-♪ Roly-poly, roly, roly ♪ -♪ Roly-poly, roly, roly ♪

-How sudden. -Why did you dance?
Where are they going?
-Is it over? -It's as if nothing happened.
-Flash mob. -Yes.
I see. Flash mob.
-It was cool. -Amazing.
-Back in 2011, flash mobs were trendy. -That's right.
[Tae-hyun] Hold on.
They began dancing in the middle of making ramyeon.
[person] Catch him!
What's going on? What?
[screaming]
-[person] Catch him! -What?
[screaming, clamoring]
[Na-ra] Oh, no.
What?
[JENNIE screams]
[in English] Oh, my God.
[siren wailing]
Oh, my God.
-[in Korean] What's happening? -It's dangerous.
-What's happening?
-It's dangerous.
-My goodness. -It's dangerous.
Mister, slow down.
[Se-chan] Mister, slow down.
Be careful.
[screaming, clamoring]
Oh, no! It's an actual crash!
Seriously?
-Seriously? -Oh, no.
-Why…
-He spun. -I know.
-Is he okay? -It was an actual crash.
Should we listen to what the police say?
-I didn't hear what they said. -I mean…
-Is he okay? -The police.
[police officer] You have the right to remain silent.
Anything you say can and will be used against you.
-You jerk. -You have the right to an attorney. Okay?
You serial robbing punk, you should've stopped already.
-He's a culprit. -"Serial robbing punk."
He's a serial robber.
A robber. A serial robber.
[Na-ra] He got arrested.
They're detectives, right?
-Their performance was so realistic. -It was no joke.
It was really-- My goodness.
-[JENNIE] What happened? -[Na-ra] What about the motorcycle?
-What? -They left.
Isn't the speed limit 15 km per hour on campus?
[laughter]
Isn't the speed limit 15 km per hour on campus?
I know. They went over the speed limit.
-A serial robber? -A serial robber.
-I'm already scared. -I know.
Why…
"Serial robbing punk." What's going on?
So the case is set in 2011.
I was alive back then.
[Na-ra] Of course, you were alive.
-We were alive back then. -We were alive.
[Jae-seok] You're right.
You're right.
-[Na-ra] Congratulations. -We might know.
That's right.
[Jae-seok] What happened on a university campus back in 2011?
[Tae-hyun] Serial robbery on a university campus?
-It's Woo-il. -Woo-il.
-Hello.
-You look like a senior. -Woo-il.
Are you guys this year's incoming freshmen?
-Yes. -Yes.
-What are you supposed to be? -I'm Im Woo-il,
the legendary returning student of 2009.
How cool.
-You're the security guard. -I know.
-No. -The security guard.
-No. -You're the security guard.
-No. -No?
You'll become a security guard later.
-You are. -You'll become one.
-Just you wait. -You'll become one.
-Do I become
a security guard?
I saw it in the future.
-Do I become one in the future? -Yes.
-It's in the past, not the future. -The past.
-Really? -Yes.
In any case, it's nice to meet you.
Each one of you joined a club.
-Really? -When did I do that?
-We just looked around. -I didn't.
-Didn't you join a club? -No.
-Your parents did it for you yesterday. -Excuse me?
-We're in university. -Parents?
-We're in university. -They signed you guys up.
In the Band Club are
Tae-hyun, Na-ra, and Jung-ha.
Jae-seok, Se-chan, and JENNIE are in the Dance Club.
All right. This is promotional matrimony on the school.
-Captains, here. -You mean "material."
Material.
What even is "promotional matrimony"?
-The legendary returning student of 2009. -Is he a Pokémon?
-I'm Woo-il. -Woo-il.
-"Promotional matrimony." -Captains, take this.
Make sure you don't "loose" it.
WELCOME TO NAKWON UNIVERSITY

Captains, take this. Make sure you don't "loose" it.
-"Loose"? -You mean "lose."
You mean "lose."
Hey!
I'm the legendary returning student, Woo-il.
All right, Woo-il.
-Go to your respective club rooms. -Shall we do that?
Hurry up and move.
There are handwritten posters.
-Woo-il, can we read them? -Go ahead.
A tuition increase.
[Tae-hyun] "My blood is boiling."
[Na-ra] "How could they increase the tuition?" It's about tuition.
PLEASE KEEP YOUR PROMISE ABOUT CUTTING TUITION IN HALF!
The six university representatives of the Korea College Students' Union
held a press conference at Gwanghwamun Square
and asked the government to keep its promise of cutting tuition in half.
The attendees criticized the government
for tormenting the students with high tuition.
That's right. While movies and songs were incredibly popular back then,
there was a social conflict over the issue of half-price tuition.
Tuition was an issue. That's right.
-Tuition. -For students…
-Yes. -For students, tuition is daunting.
-It's expensive. -Parents struggled.
Let's go inside.
-Shall we go? -Okay.
-This university seems to have a problem. -I know.
Every place we visit has a problem.
-Let's go inside. -Okay.
[Jung-ha] Woo-il, you're handsome.
-[Woo-il] Thank you. I hear that a lot. -[Jung-ha laughs]
I'm sick and tired of it.
[JENNIE] Seriously.
When did they put up these banners?
-This is incredible. -Right?
WELCOME, YOU DON'T NEED TO HIDE ANYMORE
WELCOMING THE INCOMING STUDENTS OF 2011
When did they put up these banners?
-This is incredible. -Right?
Oh, yes.
Do you think they're accomplices? Jae-seok, it's the same jacket.
-What? -Look at them.
He was wearing that jacket.
[screaming, clamoring]
[Tae-hyun] The police.
You serial robbing punk…
-A serial robber? -A serial robber.
[Na-ra] He got arrested.
Do you think they're accomplices? Jae-seok, it's the same jacket.
-He was wearing that jacket. -Robbers.
-What? -What?
-Robbers. -What?
They were wearing the same jacket as the robber we saw.
What's up with them? What's this?
-What? -What?
SET UP YOUR USERNAME: I WON'T CRY ANYMORE
What's this?
"How big is the harvest?"
-"I don't have it either." -"Eun-jung got exposed."
"Senior Eun-jung got exposed."
"The senior line"? What's this?
"I don't have money."
"How about the freshman? Is the freshman okay?"
What's this?
-"Answer me, freshman." -You don't use messaging apps.
-It's us. -Jae-seok.
-"Answer me, freshman." -You don't use messaging apps.
-It's us. -Jae-seok, can you type?
-Of course. -You don't use messengers. He doesn't.
Jae-seok, send a reply. Write something.
-Jae-seok. -"Answer me, freshman."
"I'm sorry."
-"What?" -What are you doing?
-Shall I type? -What are you doing? What did you type?
The hunt-and-peck typing isn't going to cut it.
They'll know that you aren't a freshman.
-"What?" -"What?"
-Why didn't you add a question mark? -That's enough.
-"What." -They'll understand.
-They replied. -My goodness.
"Who are you?"
[Na-ra] "Who are you?"
"The freshman."
[laughter]
"The freshman."
[laughter]
-That's too casual. -"The freshman."
-Too casual. -"No, you're not."
"No, you're not." You got caught.
Maybe a freshman among us should type.
Se-chan, go ahead.
I'm not a freshman. These two are.
"Who are you?"
-Go ahead. You know how to type. -Reveal your name.
-Type, "JENNIE." -Can you type fast?
Can you type fast?
I'M JENNIE
-That was so fast. -You can type fast.
-I should practice typing. -What?
-You're busy already. -You should.
I should practice typing.
What if I get arrested for revealing my name?
-He left. -He left.
-The name is Kim Kwang-won. -He left.
-Leader Kim Kwang-won. -Kim Kwang-won?
[Se-chan] He was wearing that jacket.
Leader Kim Kwang-won must be up to something.
What's this? Is it a crime ring?
It must be a crime ring. The freshman.
-You know that I like you a lot. -It's you.
It's you, Se-chan.
Don't suspect me because of my outfit. It isn't me.
What's the story?
-[JENNIE] It's this way. -[Jae-seok] This way?
There are so many clubs.
-What's going on today? -[JENNIE] I have no clue.
[Woo-il] This is the Dance Club.
It's the Dance Club room. Go on in.

-Shall we wear a pair each? -Shall we?
-What? There are no socks. -No?
-Socks would be perfect. -There are no socks.
-It'd be nice to wear them. -Yes. They envelop your feet.
[Jae-seok] What? There's something here.
What? There's something here.
-What? -Is there something?
"Tuition Rises by 30% in 5 Years, Which Is Twice the Inflation Rate."
Is there a story about tuition?
"From 2005 to 2010,
educational expenses rose by 22.8%."
[Tae-hyun] "My blood is boiling."
[Na-ra] "How could they increase the tuition?" It's about tuition.
[police officer] You serial robbing punk, you should've stopped already.
What's this?
-Someone's at the door. -A clue…
What?
-What? -Aiki.
-It's Aiki. -Aiki. What are you doing?
-What are you doing? You just got here. -[Jae-seok] Seriously. You just got here.

Let's get started.
We need to perform.
-What? -What?
You want me to perform in this state?
Would you be okay with that?
-I already made up my mind. -Okay.
We'll give a performance of the hottest song,
"Heartbeat" by 2PM.
-"Heartbeat." -Can you feel my heartbeat?
-[song starts playing] -[JENNIE vocalizing]
-I called over some seniors. -Really?
-Seniors. -It'd be funny
-if 2PM came. -The best dancers.
[Aiki] Welcome.
-They're here. -What?
-Earlier, they were with the Hip-Hop Club. -Didn't they do hip-hop?
He was rapping terribly earlier.
Find freedom at Nakwon University.
Here comes the first move.
-Pound your chest. -[song playing]
This dance is very well-known.
Pound your chest. The second move.
Run plaintively.
That's right. You need to act like you're going somewhere.
Run like this.
Run.
Are you doing the grasshopper dance? That's what it looks like.
[Aiki] I've seen it somewhere.
-I got it. -Good.
[Se-chan] JENNIE, we'll dance behind you.
Okay.
[Aiki] Become self-absorbed.
[in English] Let's go.

It's this way.
-You didn't teach us this move. -This move.
How are we supposed to dance?
-Here it comes. -Here it comes.
-Run. Let's go. -Here it comes.
How cool.
Se-chan.
Now, show us 2PM.
That was perfect.
You need to succeed in doing the human pyramid
for us to give a good performance.
Okay.
What a puzzling day.
-There must be something more. -I know.
What's this?
-Now, the saddle position. -The human pyramid.
-[Aiki] Let's see the human pyramid. -Hey.
[JENNIE exclaims]
-It was perfect. -It was perfect.
It was perfect, right?
What was the meaning of that?
I'm sure the human pyramid means something.
I think so.
-[Woo-il] You hear the sound. -[Na-ra] Yes, we do.
Yes. My body is twitching already.
[Na-ra cheering]
That's right.
-Aren't they the DICKPUNKS? -From Superstar K?
-Who are you guys? -Hello.
-We're the Band Club. -The Band Club, N.O.B.

By the way, you have the same name as me.
Oh, yes.
Tae-hyuns can sing well.
-That's right. -Yes.
Tae-hyun, do you know a song titled "The Two Line Bridge"?
…do you know a song titled "The Two Line Bridge"?
I've heard of it.
I have a feeling that you'll sing that song well.
I'm getting that same feeling.
-Come here and sing. -Thank you.
I have a bad cold,
-but I'll give it a go. -What's that?
Is that a prompter? Do you have bad eyesight?

-In the back? -No.
Isn't that Lee Yong-jin?
I was mistaken. I'm sorry.

Let's go and take a look.
-Room 1403. -Room 1403.
Let's go.

Room 1403.
Why are there so many club rooms?
-There must be something. -The club rooms…
What's going on today?
What's the story today?
What is it?
Room 1403.
I'm wearing skinny jeans for the first time in years.
-What? -Right. Skinny jeans.
It has been years.
-Skinny jeans used to be popular. -In the 2010s…
They call colorful skinny jeans mom jeans now.

Sit at the front.
I'm Teaching Assistant Im
of criminology.
He became a teaching assistant.
Isn't he a security guard?
Today's presentation is very important.
You should know
that I'll show it only once.
-Only once. -It must be a clue.
Please listen to the lecture.
What's criminology?
-"Susuland" defined it… -Excuse me?
-Sir. -Who defined it?
Did you say "shoes"? What was that?
Please repeat yourself.
-What did he say? -Please repeat yourself.
SUTHERLAND'S DEFINITION
-"Criminology versus criminal justice." -What?
-Please read the English words. -"The study of making laws, breaking laws,
and reacting to the breaking of laws."
That must be it.
These days, you can easily find
university students who take a semester off.
These days, many students attend university for five years.
College students left their schools
and turned to robbery.
-Why? -Students in their 20s…
Students in their 20s who were attending local universities…
Having run out of money,
they hit a drunken man in his 50s and stole his wallet
in the early morning hours of December 31
in Bongcheon-dong.
Are you serious?
-Goodness. -Gosh.
At one convenience store in Gangnam after 2 a.m.,
a masked man entered.
He suddenly took out a knife and began to threaten the female employee.
Oh, my God.
All college students.
Since last November, Mr. Jung, a college student…
After losing ten million won and squandering the rest,
he turned to crime.
-What could it be? -Well…
I'm out of college. I graduated.
That's what I think.
I was tired of working part-time while pursuing a college education.
Three youths were arrested on robbery charges.
Regretting their actions now won't help them.
ROBBERY CASES RESULTING IN BODILY INJURY
Is it a serial robbery case?
CHECK OUT THE CLUB ROOMS: ART, PHOTOGRAPHY, GARDENING
-Club rooms. -Club rooms?
-Art, Photography, Gardening. -Art, Photography, Gardening.
Art, Photography, Gardening.
What did you think of the video?
What?
-Where are the students? -Where are they?
-That startled me. -What?

-Where did they go? -Where did they go?
-I can't believe it. -No way. When did they disappear?
-Why does the scale keep getting bigger? -What?
No way.
-Is this magic? -Where did they go?
-My goodness.
Art, Photography, and Gardening?
What was the missing information?
Since last November, Mr. Jung…
After losing ten million won and squandering the rest,
he turned to crime.
What was the reason why he lost ten million won?
-Did he gamble? -That could be the case.
We should go to those club rooms.
My goodness.
Art, Photography, and Gardening.
[Jung-ha] Shall we check out the clue?
Yes, let's check out the clue. Is this it?
-Here. -Is there a clue inside? [gasps]
"Check out the club rooms: Art Club, Photography Club, and Gardening Club."
Art, Photography, and Gardening.
-Now? -Shall we check them out first?
-Let's do that. -Let's go.
The other team must've gotten a better clue.
That's right.
Art Club, Photography Club…
-Here's the Art Club. -Art Club.
Let's go inside.
-They're painting something. -She's the senior we saw earlier.
Guys. Have you seen Min-su?
Why are you painting the canvas black? What are you painting?
-My future. -[Na-ra gasps]
-What? -What did she say?
She's painting her future.
Is there only this bit of hope?
-We have to finish it by today. -You have to finish it by today?
They have to finish it by today.
Her future.
They have to finish it by today. What do they need to finish?
Look at these.
They're all dark.
-They're black. -They're black.
-Is this a puzzle? -Seriously.
How do we put them together?
The paintings…
One is entirely black. One was painted diagonally.
Why are they different?
I'm really bad at things like this. My brain doesn't work.
-[Na-ra] Photography Club. -Right.
Art, Photography, Gardening.
[Na-ra] The Dance Club is coming.
What should we do?
We didn't figure anything out.
What's in there?
There are people inside.
-Photography Club. -Jae-seok, Photography Club.
Art, Photography, Gardening.
Shall we find the clue?
Back then… Yes. DSLR.
Back then, phone photos weren't high-resolution like they are now.
That's right.
Back then, people carried cameras.
DSLR.
Photos.
Jae-seok, the photos must mean something.
What could they mean?
Photos or drawings usually contain clues.
Yes.
Cat. Tiger.
Animals.
It's a photo of the Louvre Museum.
The Louvre.
-That's the Eiffel Tower. -Paris.
-I see a lot of French scenery. -France.
-Let's visit other club rooms too. -Okay.
-Why the photo of the Louvre? -Good question.
-Why the photos of Europe? -Paris.
There are animal photos.
[Na-ra] Three dogs.
[Tae-hyun] The Louvre.
What's this photo?
What is it?
Am I stupid? Why can't I figure anything out?
Let's go to the room next door.
We'll be able to find the common denominator.
Gardening Club.
This room is full of greenery.
Na-ra, the blueberry juice looks good.
-What is it? -I don't know. Can we drink it?
The blueberry juice is out of place.
This room has nothing in common with the other rooms.
-It's here. -Here.
What? There are students inside.
What? Why…
What could these be?
[Jae-seok] There are numbers.
[JENNIE] There are so many.
This is number 17.
Jae-seok, let's take all of them.
-Yes. -We should take all of them.
What? I think the students are making similar paintings.
They're painting the paper black.
Shall we go somewhere more spacious and put these together?
-Shall we do that? -Yes.
Let's look for a hint.
Jae-seok, this is number one.
-Number two. -Number two.
-Which way should I lay it? -Hold on.
Here.
-Number three. -It's missing.
Number 13.
-Twenty-two-- -Here's number three.
Give me number three.
-What? -Jae-seok, this is it.
It's a triangle.
Why am I always clueless?
What are we supposed to look at?
A triangle.
-[Jung-ha] You're right. -A triangle.
-It's that way. -[JENNIE] That way.
There should be another one in the middle.
What case is related to triangles?
-You're right. -A triangle.
A case that's related to triangles.
-Here. -That's right.
Here.
[reporter] Having run out of money,
they hit a drunken man in his 50s and stole his wallet
in the early morning hours of December 31
in Bongcheon-dong.
"How big is the harvest?"
-I know what it is. -What?
A pyramid.
-A pyramid? No way. -A pyramid.
-It's a pyramid.
A case that's related to triangles.
-A pyramid. -A pyramid.
-It must be a pyramid. -A pyramid case.
-Pyramid scheme. -You're right.
Come to think of it,
Nakwon University's symbol is a pyramid.
You're right. The school symbol.
-The school symbol is a pyramid. -The symbol.
That's incredible.
It's a pyramid.
Is "pyramid scheme" today's key word?
I think I vaguely remember a case involving students.
Their family members gave information to news outlets and whatnot.
With the new school year upon us,
illegal pyramid schemes targeting college students are becoming prevalent.
The blueberry juice looks good.
The blueberry juice is out of place.
[reporter 3] Health food items were sold at ten times the production cost.
[interviewee 1] I looked for a job in order to earn money.
[interviewee 2] They said I could make ten million won a month.
There are handwritten posters.
-"My blood is boiling." -"How could they increase the tuition?"
PYRAMID
[reporter 4] College students who joined a company running a pyramid scheme
turned to robbery when they couldn't meet the quota.
You serial robbing punk…
-He's a culprit. -"Serial robbing punk."
[interviewee 3] I went there thinking that it was a job fair.
They drew a pyramid and said…
-♪ Do ♪ -♪ Do ♪
-♪ Mi ♪ -♪ Mi ♪
-♪ La ♪ -♪ La ♪
♪ Fi ♪
What are they doing? A flash mob?
[JENNIE] The shape of the Louvre.
-[Tae-hyun] The Louvre Pyramid. -[Se-chan] Pyramid.
I see.
[JENNIE] There's a photo of a vanishing point.
We know the pyramid scheme has a leader.
That's right.
-We need to find Min-su. -Min-su.
Min-su. That's right.
Let's put these away.
[Se-chan] Find Min-su.
[Jae-seok] What's going on today?
-Did you find anything? -Why didn't you go to eat?
-Is it a packed lunch? -Gimbap.
I see. That sounds good.
It contains protein.
It's nice. It isn't half bad.
Did you find anything?
Find what?
-I don't know anything. -Your shoulders tell me that you do.
-Do my shoulders hold a clue? -Your shoulders. Lend them to me later.
Do my shoulders hold a clue?
Which one of us is it today?
There's something, right?
We don't know if a spy is among us or not.
-What? -It's a cafeteria.
It is. I bet it'll be great.
Cafeteria.
What about us?
-I love cafeterias. -I see.
-I'm a huge fan. What? -What?
What? What is it?
Peekaboo.
-What? My goodness. -What?
Just how much do they pay you?
Woo-il, are you trying to get rich?
Woo-il is here again?
Does Woo-il get paid per scene?
Who is he this time? Auntie Woo-il?
Woo-il.
-It isn't easy to make a living. -Auntie Woo-il.
You're like a chameleon.
-Put your meal ticket here. -Okay.
-I feel like I'm at school. -I know.
It's stir-fried pork.
This kimchi looks delicious.
Gosh, this is great. There's rice.
I'll put the stir-fried pork over rice.
-Thank you. -Enjoy the food.
I'll enjoy the food.
-I haven't had this milk in a while. -Take one.
-I haven't had this milk in a while. -Thank you for the food.
Enjoy the food.
-I'm so happy. -Why?
-I have food. -Right.
-I feel like a student. -Enjoy the food.
This is a taste I absolutely love.
-It's tasty. -It's tasty.
It's tasty.
Jung-ha.
It's tasty.
It's definitely a pyramid scheme.
-How do you know? -Look over there.
Pizza. Ramyeon.
Miyeokguk or seaweed soup. Dressed salad.
PYRAMID
The milk is shaped like a pyramid too.
-It's a triangle. -That's right.
You're right.
Jae-seok, they don't know about the key word,
-pyramid. -They do.
-Do they? -Jung-ha came to me and asked.
-Can you share information? -I figured it out.
-I figured it out too. -Really?
Does it have three syllables?
The next key word has one syllable.
-Is it right? -Yes.
-I think they only have a vague idea. -Yes.
A vague idea.
Hold on. I feel like people are disappearing one by one.
Why do people keep leaving in the middle of eating?
Aren't they leaving since they finished eating?
-Right? -Yes. That has to be the case.
Gosh, they don't let up even during mealtime.
Jung-ha.
Yes, Jae-seok?
You shouldn't get up before an elder finishes eating.
-I'm sorry. -Come here.
Thank you.
Why are you questioning everything during mealtime?
-Aren't you going to make deductions? -What?
Aren't you going to make deductions? You aren't here to eat.
The culprit will get caught by the time we finish filming.
Don't worry.
The culprit will get caught by the time we're done.
You have a point.
Today is finally the day Jae-seok has a role.
Why does he keep whispering?
-They all left. -Yes. They all disappeared.
What does it mean?
They left since they were done eating. They couldn't stay here all day.
You have a point.
-Right? -Yes.
Thank you for the food.
Do I put it in here?
I think you can leave it there.
Thank you for the food.
What?
There's no exit over here. How did the students leave?
TRAY RETURN
Their food trays are here, but they disappeared.
I just find it so strange.
Why did they disappear?
What?
-Where did they go? -There's no door.
-Jae-seok, there must be a secret. -Seriously.
Finding the door must be our mission.
Today, we must receive the second crucial clue.
We must win the second game.
You'll now play a game for the second crucial clue.
That sounds good.
All right.
We must win this clue.
It's the Dance Club versus the Band Club.
Please decide on your team chant.
The team chant should be short.
Ours will be JENNIE.
JENNIE.
-Yes. JENNIE. -JENNIE.
-JENNIE is perfect. -JENNIE.
-Bong-seok? -Bong-seok.
The game you'll play this time is Say Two Things Each.
Two things?
Saying one thing is hard enough.
For example, Name two three-syllable foods each.
Bong-seok. Tonkatsu. Seaweed soup.
-Jjajangmyeon. -You need to go faster.
JENNIE. Tonkatsu, jjajangmyeon.
Seaweed soup, fried dumplings.

-Cha Tae-hyun, Jung-hyun. -All right.
Jung-hyun.
-Hurry up. -Here.
Yes. Here.
Jang Hyuk, Jang Hyuk, Jang Hyuk. What am I doing?
Jang Hyuk. What am I doing?
For goodness' sake.
JENNIE. Cha In-pyo, Cha Bum-kun. That came out wrong.
Cha In-pyo, Cha Bum-kun. That came out wrong.
Hold on.
Cha In-pyo, Cha Bum-kun. That came out wrong.
-Go, Na-ra. -Okay.
Jung-ha.

Right. Bong-seok.

Why just "Jung-ha"?
-It's Lee Jung-ha. -It's Lee Jung-ha.
-Jung-ha. -It's Jung-ha.
It's Jung-ha. Okay.

You get flustered.
Let's begin.
Capitals.

Seoul, North Korea.
-My goodness. -North Korea?
Where did North Korea come from?
-Hey. -North Korea?
-Tae-hyun said it too. -Pyongyang.
-Pyongyang.
Where did North Korea come from?
We're really bad at this.
We're bad at games like this.
Let's begin.
This is hard. I can't think of them quickly.
-Name two female idol groups each. -Bong-seok.
Bong-seok.
Fin.K.L, Girls' Generation.

We're good at this.
-We're young. -This is good.
For goodness' sake. Why are we so bad at this game?
Hey, Bong-seok.
Tae-hyun hasn't gotten to open his mouth once.
Let's begin.
Name two song titles each with a color in them.
Songs with a color in the title?
-Songs with a color in the title? -This one is hard.
Let's wait and steal their answers.
JENNIE.
"Yellow Balloon," "Red Balloon."
Those have to be actual songs.
"Yellow Balloon" isn't a song title.
JENNIE.
That's not a song? Then I don't have anything.
Let's begin. Bong-seok.
"Yellow Sky." Hold on.
Let's begin. Bong-seok.
-"Yellow Sky." Hold on. -"Yellow Sky."
JENNIE.
"Violet Fragrance," "Blue Land."
"Red Flavor," "Blue Flavor."
-I don't know. -What a rhyme.
"Red Flavor" works.
I almost let it pass. I almost said "Green Flavor."
"Blue Land."
-Bong-seok. -Bong-seok.
They're done. JENNIE.
"Pink Venom," "Red Flavor."
"Violet Fragrance," "Blue Land."
"Red Sunset Glow," "Red Shoes."
"Red Shoes"?
-"Red Shoes" by SeeYa. -"Red Shoes."
-It's an actual song. -It is.
-It's an actual song. -It's incorrect.
-They were too slow. -Incorrect.
-"Red Shoes" by SeeYa. -Incorrect.
Isn't it "Red Shoes"? Is it "Shoes"?
It's "Shoes." Incorrect.
-All right. Ready, go. -For goodness' sake.
"Shoes."
Bong-seok. "Pink Venom," "Red Flavor."
"Violet Fragrance," "White Magnolia."
"Sky Blue Balloon," "Man in a Yellow T-Shirt."

"Red Flavor," "Pink Venom."
"Red Sunset Glow," "Blue."
-"Blue." -"Blue."
-It counts.
-My goodness. -Okay.
Isn't "Man in a Yellow T-Shirt" a song?
-It's "Shirt." -It's "Shirt"?
It's "Shirt"? "A Yellow Shirt"?
The Dance Club won.
Oh, no. We needed to win.
-We fought well. -We did well.
-This is for the losing team. -We get one too.
The losing team gets something.
-Na-ra is hilarious. -For goodness' sake.
Shall I drink a cup of cold water?
Go ahead, Jung-ha.
Bong-seok.
Ta-da. How do you want it?
As for me, I like it rich.
It's important to add the right amount of water.
-You'll be surprised. -Why?
This was developed by the Entrepreneurship Club.
-It features a new technology. -What is it?
Hi.
I want 180 ml of water.
Pouring 180 ml of water.
The machine measures it itself.
As you can see, the measurement is precise.
-It must be great for cooking. -Very nice.
This would help kids develop math skills.
What's 120 plus 180?
-It's 300. -It's 300.
Cheers.
Both teams can move freely now.
Se-chan and Jung-ha, you'll film something first.
Let me know what you find. I'll join you afterward.
What is it?

GO TO THE GYM - GO TO THE GYM
-"Go to the gym." -The gym.
Let's go.
Jae-seok, is it you?
-It isn't me. -It's you.
Why don't you come clean since it's just us two here?
-I'll help you. -It isn't me.
-Here it is. Number two. -Where?
-We were at number three, so… -Straight ahead?
Is this the gym? Yes, it is.
Where did Jae-seok and JENNIE go?
Na-ra, let's follow them.
-Let's go this way. -The gym.
Yes.
The gym looks very sleek.
What? There's a camcorder.
-I guess we can use it to watch the tape. -That's right.
The gym.
What?
What about Jung-ha?
Who?
-Jung-ha. -It's Se-chan.
I promised to relay the information.
It can't be helped.
Besides, only two people can use the earphones.
That's right.
Can we check this out without Jung-ha?
He doesn't have a separate mission, does he?
-Let's go, Jung-ha. -What was that?
Let's go.
-It's playing. -Yes.
-In Songpa-gu, Seoul… -[electrical interference crackles]
college students involved in pyramid schemes
are called…
What are they called?
The police caught pyramid scheme employees
who lured college students with a promise of employment
only to force purchases and lock them up.
They forced purchases and locked them up.
[reporter] Late one night,
we visited a dormitory in Seoul used by people running a pyramid scam.
When we entered, a male student
was washing his hair at the kitchen sink.
Over ten male and female students
were getting trained in a small room.
[student 1] They told us to follow their orders
if we wanted to make money.
[student 2] After the training session ended,
we ate ramyeon together in a cramped room.
What are they forcing the students to do?
They run a pyramid scheme.
[student 3] These are the items we have to sell.
[student 4] I had no way to run away. I didn't have a phone.
Even when I used the restroom, two people followed me.
They went that far?
That's right. I remember this incident.
[reporter 2] Over 5,000 college students who signed with the company
were watched and controlled rigorously.
They had to live in a substandard dormitory
where they couldn't even watch TV or read newspapers.
The college students who signed with the company
even turned to robbery due to extreme financial hardships.
According to them, many college students are still locked up
at a secret location.
[reporter 3] In Songpa-gu, Seoul…
a crime ring that forced 5,000 college students to live in a dorm
and participate in an illegal pyramid scheme got caught.
-Where are they? -That startled me.
What?
-Where are they? -Where?
-Where are they? -There's no door.
Where did they go?
There's no door.
There's no exit over here. How did the students leave?
There's no door.
-Where did they go? -What?
What?
"Find the students and members who disappeared."
Jung-ha and Se-chan disappeared.
What? Did they stay back on purpose?
Were they acting?
A crime ring that forced college students
to live in a dormitory and participate in a pyramid scheme…
[reporter 4] Saying that to sell a product they must use them,
they forced the students to buy the products.
Na-ra, the blueberry juice looks good.
-Don't touch it. -Can't I touch it?
-Shall we wear a pair each? -Shall we?
Even when I used the restroom, two people followed me.
Today, I have this feeling.
What? Did they stay back on purpose?
Were they acting?
We need to find the members.
-You're right. -Yes.
[loud knocking]
My goodness.
-Are we on the same team? -[loud knocking]
Are we on the same team?
My goodness.
What is it?
Who is it?
-Is there something? -What?
The ones who got locked up…
What is it? What?
What?
This is the place.
That was why people kept disappearing.
-My goodness. -It's so chilling.
What's this?
[reporter 4]This company running the pyramid scheme told the students
that they could earn ten million won a month
and find a job at a big company.
They lured college students who were struggling
due to the low employment rate and expensive tuition.
-My goodness. -It's so chilling.
What's this? I actually have goose bumps.
-They're the missing students. -I guess so.
They're the missing students.
We need to find these people as well as the members.
-Gosh. -Were they a team? Jung-ha and Se-chan?
Jung-ha and Se-chan?
I'm sorry. I suspected you.
Na-ra. For goodness' sake.
What? What's that?
What? Why are their photos here?
-I see. They got kidnapped. -Right.
-They got kidnapped.
-They got kidnapped. We must find them. -That's right.
There wasn't a hint that made someone look suspicious.
What was it?
Our hint? Pyramid.
-That's right. -Was that what you got?
We found out that it was a pyramid scheme.
Gosh, you startled me. What are you doing?
Gosh, you startled me.
My goodness.
Why are you doing this?
My goodness.
-It isn't me. -You startled me.
Why are you taking me?
-I don't like this. -I was so startled.
Stop it.
-Jung-ha. -It isn't me.
It isn't me. Why…
-Are you serious? -A blindfold.
Are you serious? I can't see anything.
Where are you taking me? Help!
This is an announcement.
Se-chan and Jung-ha have been kidnapped…
…and are locked up somewhere on campus.
The first team to find and rescue their teammate
by 4 p.m. today will be today's winners.
-It isn't me. -You startled me.
It isn't me!
Let's go.
Let's go outside.
-Hold on. -I'm ready.
-Jae-seok, what does this mean? -"The back right corner of the structure"?
"The back right corner of the structure"?
What?
"The back right…"
What does this mean?
-I don't think I'll remember it. -Take a photo.
-Jae-seok, what does this mean? -"The back right corner of the structure"?
THE WINNING TEAM'S HINT: 3-2-1-3-4-1
THE BACK RIGHT CORNER OF THE STRUCTURE
We don't know anything.
-I found them. -[panting]
That isn't it. That's an electric car.
-Isn't this it? -It's currently 2011.
Jung-ha.
Where did they go?
-[JENNIE] Jung-ha! -[Jae-seok] Se-chan!
Jae-seok.
…promotional matrimony on the school. Captains, take this.
Make sure you don't "loose" it.
"The back right corner of the structure"?
"The back right corner"?
[JENNIE] I don't understand what it means.
[Jae-seok] What does it mean?
-Three, two, one… -Three, four…
Three, four, one.
So the buildings make this shape.
What's this shape?
It's a pyramid.
"The back right corner"?
It must be the right side from our perspective. In that case…
-Then the back right corner… -The back right corner.
-Number four. -Then it's number four.
"The back right corner of the structure."
This is the spot.
We'll save you guys.
[panting] Please.
-Come here. -Please.
My goodness.
-Come here, JENNIE. -No catching.
Let's go back to the apartment.
-Gosh. -Come here.
[Tae-hyun] How are we supposed to find them?
How?
We didn't get any hints.
Na-ra, why don't we make it simple by calling them?
[ringtone plays]
-[Jung-ha] Hello? -Hey.
-Where are you? -Where are you?
Tae-hyun, I got kidnapped and put in a shipping container.
Many other people are locked up here.
What are you guys doing?
My future.
…a crime ring that forced 5,000 college students to live in a dorm
and participate in an illegal pyramid scheme got caught.
[reporter 2] A room measuring ten pyeong was shared by ten victims.
They were even watched by the perpetrators.
[reporter 3] Saying that to sell a product they must use them,
they forced the students to buy the products.
Students who had no money were even forced to take out loans.
Please save me!
Anyone!
[Na-ra] Which way?
[Jung-ha, on phone] I couldn't see anything since I was blindfolded.
Which way did you go?
Where is Se-chan? Se-chan.
-Which way? To the right? -Tae-hyun, save me.
On my way here,
I heard someone say, "Your kindness can help other people."
I don't like this. Please let me go.
Where are you taking me? Please save me.
[bell ringing]
[bell ringer] Your kindness can help other people.
"Your kindness can help other people."
After that, I think I heard a violin playing.
I hear a violin.
I also heard the sound of samulnori.
-Samulnori? -Samulnori?
What's that sound? Drums?
-I'm so scared. Please save me. -Okay.
Hang in there. I'll find you.
-What? Hold on. -There it is.
He heard that sound.
Show kindness to your neighbors.
Jung-ha!
He went that way.
This is sudden.
It's the violin. It's this way.
-That's sudden. Bravo. She's good. -I mean…
I'm too full to run.
Samulnori.
Where is he?
Na-ra.
-Is he nearby? -He heard this sound.
Hey, Se-chan.
-Number four. -Back right corner. Number four.
It's here.
-Here. -There?
-There. -There.
-Jae-seok. -Se-chan.
Se-chan.
-Jae-seok. -There.
Jae-seok.
Se-chan.
-Hurry up and open the door. -Hey.
-Se-chan. -There's a lock.
-Where? -Here.
-There's a lock. -Where?
Here.
Don't you know the passcode?
Se-chan.
How do I open it?
Is the place big or small?
Is it big?
It's narrow. It's a single shipping container.
It's this one. The shipping container.
Hey.
Jung-ha.
You're in here, right?
-Jung-ha, are you inside? -What?
-My goodness. -Is it open?
-Gosh, this isn't it. -Come on.
This isn't it.
There must be a shipping container like this one.
A shipping container.
-Over there. -[Jung-ha] Na-ra, I'm here.
-There it is. -Okay.
-I'm locked in. -Jung-ha, I'm coming.
Tae-hyun, save me.
Jung-ha, I'll save you.
My junior, Jung-ha.
Hurry up and open the door.
Hold on. How do I open this?
-He's here. Jung-ha. -Jung-ha.
-Tae-hyun, there's a passcode. -He's here.
What? I don't know the passcode.
The team that rescues their teammate first wins.
-There's nothing inside? -[Se-chan] There's nothing.
There are socks.
-[JENNIE] You're really locked in. -Yes.
Blueberry juice.
Jung-ha, are there any clues to the passcode inside?
Tae-hyun, I think I found a clue to the passcode.
"It starts in Osan and ends in Incheon."
IT STARTS IN OSAN AND ENDS IN INCHEON
"It starts in Osan and ends in Incheon."
-"It starts in Osan and ends in Incheon"? -Yes. "It starts in Osan."
What does that mean?
"It starts in Osan and ends in Incheon."
Osan. What's the area code?
-Gyeonggi Province's area code is 031. -Osan, so…
You don't know the area code for Osan.
I don't know it.
Hey, try 031032.
It ends in Incheon. It starts in Osan.
IT STARTS IN OSAN AND ENDS IN INCHEON
-Tae-hyun, try 5427. -Osan.
Incheon. Five, four. Incheon.
I'll try 5427.
-It isn't 5427. -This is driving me crazy.
Is there anything else? Look for a clue.
[Jae-seok] Hurry up. Hurry up and look for a clue.
There's nothing.
-There's nothing. -[Jae-seok] Everyone is here.
They're here.
Look carefully.
What's that? Hold on. What's this?
-Hold on. -Is there a clue?
-What's this? -[Jae-seok] There's a clue.
Let's see it. Show me the clue you found.
-What's that? -[Jae-seok] A question mark?
[both] "Sad Cohabitation of 'Blank' Students."
What?
Hold on. "Reportage."
"Sad Cohabitation of 'Blank' Students."
What?
What's the number?
[Jae-seok] Five thousand.
In Songpa-gu, Seoul…
a crime ring that forced 5,000 college students to live in a dorm
and participate in an illegal pyramid scheme got caught.
"It starts in Osan and ends in Incheon."
-It's 5,000. -Five thousand?
-[Na-ra] It opened! Jung-ha! -[Se-chan] It opened!
[Na-ra] I don't know. We opened it at the same time.
-[Woo-il] Come on out. -Okay.
[Woo-il] The team that escaped first is…
The Band Club.
-For goodness' sake. -How did it happen?
We got you out first.
-It's open! Jung-ha! -Hey!
It's Jung-ha.
-Jung-ha! -Hey!
Seniors.
-What's that? -What? Are you serious?
The winning team will get a special prize.
I'll eat it for a lifetime.
[JENNIE] I'm jealous.
[Jae-seok] For goodness' sake.
[Jung-ha] Did we escape first?
-Really? Did we escape first? -That's right.
I remember this incident.
In 2010 and 2011, over 5,000 college students got locked up
-due to a pyramid scheme. -Yes.
-They got locked up? -So the passcode was 5000.
Although years have passed,
-it's still a heartbreaking incident. -I agree.
It was a big incident that shocked society.
For the pyramid scheme that amounted to one trillion won,
the CEO and executives of Husstem Korea were brought to trial.
The prosecution estimates there to be over 100,000 victims.
In the past five years, the most common form of fraud involved
pyramid schemes that encouraged investments in cryptocurrency.
-We're late. -We're late.
-Get down. -Come on, Mr. Im.
Gosh.
We're high schoolers.
Stop acting out.
-That's YEONJUN. -YEONJUN is fighting.
Is this a school?
How is this possible in a school?
Are they students?
-It's a bit scary. -Is it a laboratory?
-Hey, lock the door. -Why?
-What are you doing? No. -What's going on?
Bring the teacher.
-What? -What's going on?
Things are quite loud at the school.
Please find it, Jae-seok.
Why are so many things happening?
