Jeong-mi visits the Gusi Mansion apartment complex to conduct a survey on child welfare, where she meets siblings Jun-hui and Jun-seo. The young brother and sister claim that their parents will be back soon, but they sound like they are reciting lines they were made to memorize.

The children ask Jeong-mi to go down the manhole.
