Jong-goo, policier dans la petite ville de Gok-seong, est confronté à des meurtres très violents commis par des personnes qui, après une soudaine éruption cutanée, sont soudainement prises de démence avant de devenir catatoniques. Au fil de ses investigations, la rumeur le conduit à soupçonner un Japonais qui vit isolé dans la forêt. Pour l'interroger, il fait appel à un diacre parlant japonais et, avec un collègue, ils fouillent sa cabane en son absence. L'autre policier trouve des photos des villageois infectés et assassinés et certaines de leurs affaires mais est trop choqué pour dire quoi que ce soit aux autres. Le chien de garde de l'étranger attaque le diacre et Jong-goo. Le Japonais arrive et apaise le chien, et les trois autres partent.
