My name is Ju Oh-nam.
I like spending time alone.
It's been that way since I was young.
When I was young,
other kids bullied me and made fun of me.
In the world of children, you are ridiculed
just for being short and fat.
Hey, stupid! Look at me!
Hey!
Spin more!
I started middle school, but nothing changed.
No, it's mine.
No, I eat first!
It's mine.
The only way to get along with my peers
was to stay as invisible as possible.
The moment I let myself be seen,
the bullying picked up.
Slowly, I grew afraid of people's eyes on me.
And slowly,
I erased myself away.
No one was around to listen to me.
Except her.
I love you.
I love you too.
MASK GIRL
JU OH-NAM
Thanks, Remi-chan!
What is this?
You even got a present for me?
You didn't have to.
Anyway, thanks, Remi-chan!
It's so cute!
MALE MASTURBATION TOY
Ah shit.
Hi, Mom.
What the hell took you so long to answer?
I called this morning, but you didn't answer.
Do you know what today is?
It's my birth--
Didn't I say I was going to Jeju Island with people from my church today?
Ah, right.
God, what am I gonna do with you?
You know Ms. Yang's son, Du-sik, right?
The one who became a doctor.
He sent over money and bought his mom clothes for the trip!
Do I really have to spell it out for you?
I'm sorry.
My goodness.
Du-sik even got married to a doctor as well.
Apparently, they both look after Du-sik's mom so well.
Everyone says he is the best son,
and I'm sick and tired of hearing it!
Anyway, are you dating anyone yet?
What the heck? Did you just sigh?
It was just a yawn.
God, you're just bullshitting over and over.
I raised you alone, without a husband, and I don't wish for much.
All I want is a grandchild to hold in my arms,
and you can't even do that for me.
I am still alone.
I'm still afraid of people.
In particular,
I'm even more afraid of making eye contact with female humans.
Mr. Ju. Here it is.
DOCUMENT FOR APPROVAL
So I prefer looking at women's hands
instead of their faces.
This female human has moles on both of her hands.
In the exact same spot.
She got her nails done today.
But here,
I am completely different.
Okay, let's take a look at all my cuties.
I will shower you with tons of Heart Pangs.
Out of all of them, I had a favorite.
Mask Girl.
It's a pity that she covers her face, but she provides the best service.
3,000 HEART PANGS
3,000 ONCE UPON A PRINCE
Once Upon A Prince! I'm so touched!
They were in the exact same spot and the same size,
even her nail color too.
That was when
she became special to me.
After hovering around the 10% range,
our performance took a sharp upward turn in 2008.
And in the first half of 2009...
ONCE UPON A PRINCE ENTERED THE CHAT
BITCH MUST LOOK LIKE AN ORC WON'T TAKE IT OFF 'CAUSE SHE'S UGLY
Talking about my face again?
Are you that curious about my face?
TRUE BEAUTY IS INNER BEAUTY
LET'S NOT JUDGE PEOPLE BY THEIR LOOKS
I totally agree with Prince here.
It's all about looks. Gosh, aren't you tired of it?
You're right, Ms. Mo-mi.
I think those who lack in appearance
are indeed more mature on the inside.
Those beautiful assholes never had to feel any kind of discouragement.
I agree. Those who only care about looks are terrible.
Prince, you're really deep.
WHAT ARE YOU TWO DOING?
All right, enough about looks. Do you want to listen to some music?
ARE YOU FAVORING PRINCE? GET A ROOM, YOU TWO
I wonder if you younger ones would know this.
This is my favorite song.
"Dance In The Rhythm" by Kim Wan-sun.
I hope you all like it too.
In the modern rhythm
Visible in the moment
To your new dance moves
I lose my heart
Under the breathtaking light
Your mysterious eyes...
You are beautiful, even without the mask.
I love you, Ms. Mo-mi.
Mr. Ju, I love you.
Milk...
MILK
Yes!
I wore something pretty today. What do I do?
Okay, here I go!
Ah, it's not breaking easily.
It must be because the ice is slippery.
All right, let's all make a toast!
Cheers!
Have a drink, everyone.
Cheers.
I think I like this wine too.
French wine is just our type, right?
Gosh, I think I'm getting drunk already.
Dance to the rhythm
Oh!
Sorry?
Hello.
That's not what I'm saying.
Telling a woman to pour you a glass is just wrong.
Regardless of sex...
Mr. Park feels uncomfortable when female employees pour him drinks.
Is a man touching a woman's chest the same as a woman touching a man's?
Oh, okay.
- I'm just saying. - That's enough.
You know what, boss?
Why did you put them so far away? Jeez.
Kids are out of control these days.
If they do this, people donate Heart Pangs left and right.
It gets really crazy.
It's 100,000 won for 1,000 and a million won for 10,000 Heart Pangs.
Tons of kids are trying to make money this way now.
Wow! Jeez. Young people are just out of their minds.
The hottest one on here is this one.
Mask Girl.
- What's wrong? - I'm sorry.
It's all right.
I moved near Osan Pass, so...
Oh, you did? Sure, get in.
All right, then. Ms. Lee! Let's go for a second round.
- What should we eat? - Mr. Kim?
Oh shit! You scared me, damn it.
How long were you standing there, huh?
You should've said something if you were there. Gosh!
What?
I have a thing at home as well, so...
Sure, go. Bye.
Okay, next is spicy chicken feet!
- Let's go! - Chicken feet!
No, it was totally coincidental.
My place is on the way to his, that's why.
Anyway. On the way, his wife called him, right?
But even though he was in the taxi with me,
he lied to his wife, saying that he was alone.
Why did he do that?
HE JUST COULDN'T BE BOTHERED TO EXPLAIN
- Exactly. That's all it is. - Well, then.
He could've said he was with a coworker whose place was on the way.
MASK GIRL, YOU'RE SO DELUSIONAL
Well done, Brad Pit!
BRAD PIT HAS BEEN KICKED FROM THE CHAT
How about this?
A while back, I told him, "Oh, your cologne smells really nice."
Then he started to only wear that cologne.
But as I'm sure you already know,
I have no feelings whatsoever for him.
IF YOU DATE THAT MAN, I'LL KILL MYSELF
HOW TO CONFESS YOUR LOVE SUCCESSFULLY
I love you, Ms. Mo-mi.
Man, that's not how it's done.
Ms. Mo-mi.
Forget about someone like him. Just come to me--
I'll get going now.
What are you doing, Ju?
Oh...
I...
Why are you still here?
Huh?
Forget it! See you tomorrow. For God's sake.
Do you like that?
Please don't stop
The dance in that rhythm
Please don't stop
- Everyone. -The dance in that...
Everyone.
I had a drink.
Guys.
Do you know what love is?
Oh, drat. Why isn't this working?
Love always hurts.
I know how you feel.
Forget that piece of trash. Experience real love with me.
SHE'S GONNA CAUSE A SCENE TALK HER OUT OF IT?
2,000 BEAR GRILLS
300 ROLL ROLL 123
What? What is she doing?
Get it together, Mo-mi. Stop!
Shit, no!
MASK GIRL! YOU'LL GET SUSPENDED
This is all because of that son of a bitch, Park.
Ms. Mo-mi.
May I speak with you?
Pardon?
Forget it.
Forget what?
Forget about that piece of shit,
that married fucking bastard!
What's gotten into you?
I've watched you all this time.
What? You've watched me?
I mean, not necessarily watching you, but...
What is wrong with him?
I love you, Ms. Mo-mi!
I love you!
What took you so long?
What?
I actually
love you too, Mr. Ju.
You love me?
What are you doing? You okay?
Oh,
my wisdom tooth...
Excuse me.
Yes?
No, it's nothing.
Did you have something you wanted to say?
Oh, that...
There was a slight error in the sales figures
in the data reported to Mr. Park.
- So I... - Oh, really?
- I'm sorry. - I adjusted them before submission.
Thank you.
I'll see you tomorrow, then.
No taxis.
I might as well die.
Wait!
Hey! Taxi!
Sir, please follow that taxi. Quick!
Quickly!
MOTEL

What? What's going on?
Nothing.
Hi, Mom.
Why the hell do you always take so long to answer?
Look. I made some side dishes. When should I come by?
You don't have to bring food. I haven't had time to eat at home lately.
Hell. What kind of stinking company works you to the bone
and pays you an ant's ass worth of money.
Mom, my meeting's starting right now.
I'll call you later. Bye.

MASK GIRL SAYS: HI?
WOW, HEY! IT'S BEEN TOO LONG
I'M SO SAD THAT YOU GOT SUSPENDED
I THINK I MIGHT AS WELL QUIT LIVE STREAMING NOW
WHY? NO!
I don't think I'm a woman who can be loved.
What do you mean?
You're so charming.
Mo-mi, cheer up. I'm here for you.
You'll think differently once you see my face.
Of course not.
I'm not that kind of man.
I would be so good to you.
DO YOU WANT TO MEET UP?
What?
IF I'M ALONE, I MIGHT DIE
YOU'RE MY FRIEND
WHY SAY THAT?
DON'T SAY YOU'RE GOING TO DIE
WHY SAY THAT? DON'T SAY YOU'RE GOING TO DIE

MASK GIRL HAS LOGGED OUT
Gosh, I must be out of my mind.
Damn it. Whatever.
Oh, Ms. Mask Girl!
You're Ms. Mask Girl, right?
Man, I'm so glad to meet you. I'm the Handsome Monk.
Wow. It's such an honor to meet you like this.
Your shows are truly the best.
I think it's so real.
Other camgirls, they know they're pretty.
So they don't have a professional mindset.
But your show, Ms. Mask Girl, it's so honest.
That's what's really awesome.
Oh, sure. Thanks.
Well, then,
should we speak casually now?
Oh, we're the same age.
Oh, sure.
Then can you take off your mask now?
Huh?
I'm not hungry.
No. I can't eat all of this by myself.
Take it off.
Take-- I'm going to say it really loudly.
- Take it off. - Okay! Stop.
- Take it off. - I will. You can stop now.
Stop looking at me. I'm embarrassed.
Wait, hold on.
Why did you hide your face?
You're pretty.
What are you saying?
Are you making fun of me?
Oh, no.
You're really natural and...
What's the Korean word?
Oh, attractive?
Yes! You're attractive!
You're totally attractive.
Did you live in America for a while?
You lived in America for a while?
Yeah. Until I graduated from college.
My family is all in America. I'm in Korea.
Aren't you lonely?
I was a little lonely at first.
When I first came to Korea, I understood nothing.
So I cried.
I was lonely.
I see.
I mean, it's better now.
Mask Girl. If you go to America, you'll be really popular.
Yeah?
Yeah! American guys really like girls with monolid eyes,
and with this...
Cheekbones?
Yeah. They really like girls with high cheekbones.
Oh, really?
I was thinking about getting surgery on my cheekbones.
Mask Girl, you're really attractive.
I'm really against it.
Let's go.
Oh, sorry I took so long.
It's fine.
You want something else?
I'll have what you're having.
Excuse me.

ASSOCIATE MANAGER JU OH-NAM
Hey, it's really loud in here.
You wanna go somewhere quieter?
Sure! Where should we go?
- Shall we go outside and look? - Okay.
Let's go.
To Cheong-dong Food Alley, please.
When I first came to Korea,
I thought Grandma's Bone Hangover Soup
actually had Grandma's bones in it.
Really?
Yeah, so I was super scared.
Well, should we just get some beer and drink in peace here?
Here?
Yeah, let's watch a movie and drink beer.
This is a bit too...
Other places are too noisy though.
Can I rent a room for a few hours?
Not at this time of night.
I did in Bongcheon-dong.
Not here though.
How much for a night?
It's 60,000 won.
Hey, Mask Girl.
I'll go buy some beer. You can go wait in the room.
Oh fuck. I spent so much fucking money.
Man, she could've offered to buy the beer. Damn it.
So fucking annoying.
ASSOCIATE MANAGER JU OH-NAM EIGHT MISSED CALLS
MS. MO-MI, WHERE ARE YOU? CALL ME WHEN YOU GET THIS
What's up with him?
Hey.
I don't think we should drink here.
Oh, all of a sudden? What's wrong?
You said it was fine earlier.
I never said it was fine.
Mask Girl. Wait a second. Just come sit here for a moment.
What? Hey, this is a waterbed? Wow, I've never seen this before.
Come on, Mask Girl.
Come sit down for a moment, yeah?
Come on. Let's just get comfortable,
drink beer here, watch a movie, and talk comfortably.
But this place is too...
You're so pretty.
What are you doing?
Wait. Have I become the bad guy here?
Come on.
We were having a lot of fun, remember?
I'm going to go.
Man, if you weren't up for it, you should've said so sooner.
What a fucking waste of money.
I'll give you the money.
What?
Playing fucking hard to get with a fucking ugly face.
What did you just say?
I said, you play hard to get with such a fucking ugly face, so?
You showed literally everything in your live streams.
So, what's with this acting-uppity bullshit?
I'd let it slide if you were pretty, you know?
But you're fucking ugly, and this is fucking bullshit!
Shit! Are you fucking crazy?
You're fucking pissing me off, you fucking bitch.
Let go, you fucking bastard!
You!
You fucking bitch!
Let go, you son of a bitch!
Hey, wait...
You fucking bastard!
Wait! Oh fuck!
Fucking die! You fucking bastard!
You freaking lied about coming from America.
Didn't you? You son of a bitch!
- Hey, let go! - Fucking die, you fuck!
Fucking die, you son of a bitch!

For fuck's sake.

HE'S GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU!
ASSOCIATE MANAGER JU OH-NAM
Hello?
Ms. Mo-mi!
Are you all right, Ms. Mo-mi?
Is he dead?
I don't know.
This bastard was all, like,
trying to force himself on me, so
I said I didn't want to,
but he kept pushing me.
I should report this, right?
If you report this, you might go to jail.
If I say that it was self-defense,
if I do that...
wouldn't it work out somehow?
But you did come to the motel with this bastard.
Even if it's treated as manslaughter, you can serve a few years at least.
Then what do I do?
You should go home, Mo-mi.
I will handle this.
What do you mean?
I can take care of this.
You need to go. Now.
No, I can't. How can I just leave?
I'm begging you. Please go home.
I don't think it's right.
Please!
Please leave.
I...
Ms. Yoo.
Did something happen to Ms. Kim?
- Mo-mi? I'm not sure. - Yeah.
My goodness.
Well, this morning, I got a message from HR.
Apparently, she said she quit.
What?
I mean, do you quit by phone these days?
I can't believe this. Back in my day, this was just simply unthinkable.
The person...
- Right? - Oh, of course.
- We didn't dare dream of it. - She even has her phone off. What's up?

THIS STREAMER HAS BEEN SUSPENDED
DUE TO A VIOLATION OF RULES AND CONDUCT DURING LIVE STREAMING
Excuse me.
Could I get the home address for Ms. Kim Mo-mi in Sales Management?
For what purpose?
Oh, Ms. Kim quit her job.
She's not answering her phone.
We have to send her stuff to her, but I don't know her address.
Oh. Sure. Hold on, please.
The person you are calling is currently unavailable. Please--
It's been a while, everyone.
This is my last live stream.
Thank you for everything.
SOMETHING'S OFF ABOUT HER AGAIN IS SHE DRUNK?
Ms. Mo-mi, open the door. I know you're inside.
Open the door right now, Mo-mi!
Come in.
Are you going somewhere?
Why did you quit your job?
I can't go to work...
as if nothing's happened when something like that happened.
Ms. Mo-mi.
You must forget about what happened.
Just pretend it never happened.
You know that bastard deserved to die.
He was nothing more than a cockroach.
You are him, right?
Once Upon A Prince.
I thought it was strange...
how you knew that I was meeting that bastard.
Once I collected my thoughts, it became clear.
It's you, isn't it?
The one who sent me that strange email.
Why did you do it?
I said, "Why?"
I didn't do it on purpose.
When I saw you going to a motel with Park, a burst of anger overcame me.
It was the first time I had felt like this toward someone.
I'm sorry.
You're right.
You are right, Mr. Ju.
I'm going to...
erase what happened from my memory.
As you said,
I'm going to think that a cockroach died.
I'm going to start over.
Now the old Kim Mo-mi
is dead.
I'm going to start anew.
Completely
fresh.
Then what about me?
Are you going to erase me too?
Mr. Ju.
What do you want me to do for you?
Huh?
You're like everyone else.
Let go of me!
I have to protect you, Ms. Mo-mi.
I decided that day
that I...
I will protect you from now on.
I love you, Ms. Mo-mi.
What the hell did you do?
You son of a bitch!
