Episode 296 – Room 204, Mission Room – ‘Hotel Cinema’ (18)
– Kim Muk-seong
As soon as I left the strange kitchen, I met Park Sang-ho.
“hmm? “Why are you out there?”
“what? “No, yes?”
Park Sang-ho frowned in an instant and looked toward the kitchen.
“Surely they made you do something?”
“no. I just went in to see if there was anything I could do to help, but my mother told me to go to my room and rest since it was okay… .”
Park Sang-ho’s expression softened slightly after hearing what I said.
“I see. “You too, you have such a kind heart!”
“… Oh my~!”
Oh fuck! Do you really need to say this line?
As if the heated conversation wasn’t enough, Park Sang-ho came over and took my hand. Really, my whole body is shaking every moment.
“You don’t need a drop of water on your hands! know? Just go to your room and rest. “Who in the world wipes dirt with flowers?”
Is this a 90’s vibe? In fact, isn’t that a bit of a bitch statement even by the standards of the 90s? It’s good that you’re newly married and your wife’s love is through the roof, but if kitchen work is a menial task that involves digging in the dirt, why don’t you ask your mother and sister to do it too!
After that, there was nothing else to do. As soon as I come out of the room, everyone is telling me to go in and rest, so what can I do? After eating a dinner so delicious that I wondered if it had been prepared in the countryside, I did nothing until the sun set.
*
It was late at night, and as night approached, there was one thing that gave me goosebumps. Seriously, there was something 10 times more creepy than the monsters that might come out in the future and all. Surely your ‘husband’ isn’t trying to do something like that?
I’m sorry, but I can’t stand it anymore. Even if I endure it, it’s clear that my Abras warrior arms won’t be able to endure it.
Fortunately, Park Sang-ho calmly fell asleep next to me, as if he had no intention of doing something loud like that in a country house with poor soundproofing, and I have been unable to fall asleep until dawn, fearing that this bastard will do something.
…
— Sigh!
What? Is this just the beginning? As I slowly turned my eyes towards the poorly made door covered with Korean paper, I saw ‘someone’ peeking into the room.
Who is it? A murderer? monster? Strange country people?
I need to check, but I’m a little nervous about going. What if I get close and suddenly stab myself with a knife? okay. Such dangerous tasks should be done by men.
— Tuk!
“Yes… . what -”
“Shh! “There’s someone outside.”
Park Sang-ho’s eyes widened and he looked towards the door. Unlike me, who couldn’t recognize who the other person was, Park Sang-ho knew as soon as he saw him.
“No, that bastard is real!”
My careful announcement became meaningless. Park Sang-ho immediately stood up and ran outside, shouting loudly through the dark night. The sound of someone being caught and beaten while running away in a panic was heard.
“You bastard, why are you being such a dick?”
“Keuuuuuuu!”
For a long time, the sound of someone being beaten was heard. Meanwhile, I was confused.
Doesn’t it seem a little strange? Wasn’t the feeling just now clearly ‘crisis’? Shouldn’t that guy have been attacked with a knife? So smoothly –
— Boom!
The next moment, something truly unimaginable happened. Suddenly, the ‘wall’ flipped over and a strong hand came out from behind!
I never imagined that there would be such mischief in a country house. Just give strength to the warrior’s arms –
Giving strength? What should I do with my strength? Crush the limbs of the tribe that’s trying to kidnap me? If it goes on like that, won’t it be criticized as a sick development?
This worry itself led me into a trap. The cloth covering my mouth was soaked with a strong sleeping pill, and I lost consciousness in less than a minute.
… I realized it in my fading consciousness.
This is why Elena suffered in romance movies. But even if she realized, she couldn’t quite figure out how to deal with it.
*
— Wow!
“baby! “Get up now!”
I thought about this as soon as I woke up with a glass of cold water. The movie unfolds incredibly quickly.
This is not to say that physical time passed quickly. Because those ‘benefits’ have disappeared. However, it is clear that most of the events I have experienced so far will be summarized in the movie within 10 minutes at most.
At the beginning, after a conversation with my husband, we decided to go to the market.
After arriving at the city and receiving a warm welcome, I experienced something unusual in the kitchen.
While I was sleeping at night, I woke up feeling strange gazes and was kidnapped.
It’s really just three lines. The reason it moves so bizarrely fast is probably because the four short stories make up one movie.
“Dosi baby, are you awake now?”
When I opened my eyes, I saw my in-laws who had been acting strangely since yesterday. My body was hanging on the wall with both hands tied in chains, and my mother-in-law was sharpening a knife.
— Sreung!
“… It’s quite an amazing experience.”
“Oh my, I thought you would scream as soon as you woke up! “How about taking a look to the right?”
When I turned my head, I burst into laughter. This was because human skin was hanging from the ceiling.
… By the way, this damn hotel is the worst for children’s education.
“Sangho too, I don’t know how you brought such a beautiful child.”
“haha! Aren’t you too scared? If a city baby poops like this, are you going to clean it up?”
“Oh my, what are you saying and drawing like that? baby! Don’t be too scared. Tonight is going to be a very long night. “It will be useful to see with your own eyes what is under the skin.”
At some point, I just closed my ears. The two in-laws were busy telling cruel stories and talking about who was captured in the past.
He probably wanted to hear me crying and begging for his life. Instead of telling them what they wanted, I thought about it carefully.
Where on earth did the ‘mistake’ come from?
Let’s go back to the beginning of the movie. ‘Sumi Park’, the owner of this memory, escaped alive and well and came all the way to her coffee shop. What does this mean?
The story is that this is a scenario in which a woman in her 20s without any special superpowers can escape. The reason why I am now with my arms tied and a toy for an old couple crazy about torturing and killing must be because I missed something.
“I don’t know.”
“Your eyeballs – what?”
“You don’t know, you dementia-stricken bitch!”
“This, this!”
“hey! Are you listening? “I’m just going to pass it on as a matter of fact, so study it among yourselves and figure it out smartly.”
“Suddenly what-”
— Rumbling! Clap!
The chain ‘teared’ along with the sound of the stone wall behind bursting open. I told this to the elderly couple whose mouths were gaping at the surreal sight.
“There’s not much of an age difference between me and you, but from earlier, baby, baby! And what? Apply your skin? Sashimi alive? These idiots are just living their lives… .”
“W-what on earth is this-”
Unlike the mother-in-law, who rolled around on the floor in shock, the father-in-law attacked her with a knife, saying he was a man. Just looking at the movements makes me laugh. Just by looking at him, he looks like an idiot who has never punched properly in his life.
The warrior stretched out his arm and grabbed the sword, and when he applied too much force, the sword fell into three pieces.
“Father, the knife is dangerous, so put it down.”
Next, he grabbed the old man’s shoulder and applied ‘slight’ force, and the old man’s arm bent to an angle he had never seen before in his life.
“Kwaaaaak!”
“Father, are you cool? “I’m that good at massage.”
Since I’m tired of the usual plot anyway, shall I turn it this way? Come to think of it, aren’t there quite a few movies these days where the victim takes revenge on the killer?
When the old man’s ear was torn off to the right, the skin was torn and white cartilage was scattered. At this point, the old man had already fainted, his blood foaming at his mouth.
“Your snout is fluttering loudly, why is it so weak? “Mom, would you please come here too?”
“Huh, huh! “You monster!”
“Now that I think about it, where is Sang-ho?”
The mother-in-law was already distraught and started crying. Even the moment I approached and grabbed the old woman’s head, she still couldn’t come to her senses.
As I slowly twisted my head and wondered if the hotel would accept me for this, I heard a voice from outside.
“Soo, Sumi!”
“…”
If you’re talking about a horror movie, that person is like a co-worker who behaves without a clue in the beginning and gets attacked by the killer… . The story was twisted randomly and ended up like this.
So I just explained it randomly.
“Mr. Sangho. Do you see those human skins next to me?”
The man looked around with a completely mesmerized expression.
“Your ‘peculiar’ family were probably cannibals. So, well, I have no choice but to kill them all.”
“you… . you. how… .”
“Agent of a secret organization?”
Isn’t there an organization similar to the management bureau here?
“Oh, the Vatican that I only heard about!”
“cardinal.”
“Cardinal? After all, you’re 23 now!”
“Hey, cardinals are not selected based on age, but based on ability. I guess that’s roughly the case. And you’re so stupid that you don’t even know what your family does?”
“Soo, is it Sumi?”
“Why don’t you be quiet?”
After that, it was pretty rough.
To be honest, I felt like I was already exhausted, so I lost all my strength and no motivation to act properly. When I came out and thought it wasn’t my body anyway, I puffed on a cigarette and looked up at the sky, and the space started to shake.
*
“In the end, I beat my mother-in-law and father-in-law to death and escaped with my husband.”
“yes? “Suddenly?”
“yes. “In fact, I am a cardinal of the Vatican.”
“yes?”
“The Cardinals are ranked in order of merit.”
“Oh, no… . “I was hoping you would show a more serious attitude.”
“Writer, didn’t you say you wouldn’t argue after hearing our story?”
“… sorry. Still, this story feels like it was told too haphazardly. “Let’s try again later.”
When we returned to the coffee shop, a funny thing happened. Park Soo-mi described the exact same development that I had done.
Writer Do In-ho couldn’t hide his embarrassment at the absurd claim that out of nowhere, a murderous old couple was beaten to death with force, and that the only reason this was possible was because I was a cardinal of the Vatican.
As expected, this is a failure. The words ‘Let’s try again later’ sound meaningful as they come out of the author’s mouth.
At that time, Han Yu-ri, a beautiful young woman in her 20s who was waiting for her turn, opened her mouth.
“That can happen. We are people who have experienced such amazing things, right? Author, may I speak now?”
“of course. “Miss Yuri, would you please tell me?”
“This story is a memory from my high school days. that… . I’m embarrassed to say it with my own mouth. “I was quite popular during my school days.”
“It seems so. Actually, aren’t you still popular now?”
“The writer too! Anyway, when I went to school, it was normal for my shoe cabinet to be full of confession letters. But, that day was a bit unusual.”
Space began to warp.

– Second story, Demonic Girl
— Ding! dong! Dang! dong!
I sighed as I heard the high school lunch bell ringing everywhere. Yes, this is already the second time. Let’s not talk about the female student’s body again.
“Yuri! Are you free tomorrow? “I got tickets to the Black Eye concert this time -”
Next to me, a girl named Saerom eagerly suggested that we go see the performance tomorrow together. It looks like he is a friend, but the genre of the movie is horror.
“… Don’t stick too close to me.”
“huh?”
“I won’t live long.”
“what?”
The starting location was near the shoe cabinet. A girl who receives a lot of confessions. Her location is a shoe closet. Honestly, I know this too. What do you kids cram so much into here?
When I opened the shoe cabinet, as expected, it was filled with paper. There were five pieces of white paper stuffed in, and there were some rather absurd items in between.
“What’s this? jelly?”
The girl next to me, Saerom, reacted in bewilderment.
“Is it slime? “How did they put something like this in?”
It was a huge jelly-like toy, and I wonder where a high school student, not a kindergartener, could get something like this. Let alone what you got, how did you put it in the shoe cabinet?
Embarrassed, I pulled it out and stretched it out, and inside was a piece of paper with ‘I love you’ written on it.
“You really are an idiot. “Your shoe cabinet is a mess because you put something like this in it!”
“That’s it! At first glance, he’s a sick idiot. “Yuri, just throw this away.”
I know roughly what you were thinking. Since so many people put confession letters in their shoe racks, he probably thought that if he just put a paper letter in, it would get buried among the letters.
So, after thinking about adding something that would definitely attract attention unlike paper, we decided to add this crazy slime.
… It caught people’s attention. Since I committed a jelly attack, I feel like reporting it to the police.
“Haaa… . Is this the confession of today’s generation? “Anyway, he’s not an idiot who’s never even looked into a woman’s eyes. Who would confess to such a terrorist act?”
— Boom!
A heavy piece of metal hit my head.
“Don’t make fun of me! What about you? What the hell are you doing! Why are you making fun of me? My, how hard it was for me to make that!”
That was my last memory of a horror movie.

When Kim Muk-seong died a minute after the second story began, the theater was filled with silence. Ari, who was unusually drooling from her mouth, came to her senses late.
“Well, did Mukseong just die after being hit with a fire extinguisher? So, did you beat me to death because I refused to confess? “Are all kids this scared these days?”
The ‘kids these days’ who heard Ari’s words all fell silent.
