One day in 1988, an ordinary man named OH Dae-su, who lives
with his wife and adorable daughter, is kidnapped and later
wakes up to find himself in a private makeshift prison. Dae-su
makes numerous attempts to escape and to commit suicide, but
they all end up in failure. All the while Dae-su asks himself
what made a man hate him so much enough to imprison him without
any reason. While suffering from his debacle, Dae-su becomes
shocked when he watches the news and hears that his beloved
wife was brutally murdered. At this very moment, Dae-su swears
to take revenge on the man who destroyed his happy life.
Fifteen years have passed and Dae-su is released with a wallet
filled with money and a mobile phone. An unknown man calls
Dae-su and asks him to figure out why he was imprisoned. In
front of bewildered Dae-su, a girl named Mido appears and
she promises to help him seek vengeance after hearing about
his 15 years in confinement. With Mido¡¯s help, Dae-su begins
to trace the guy and finally encounters the private prison
where he discovers a cassette tape, which only says... "OH
Dae-su talks too much¡¦¡± While Dae-su and Mido¡¯s search goes
on, Dae-su finally runs face to face with his kidnapper. The
culprit says there will be no way to find out the reason of
his imprisonment if Dae-su kills him now. Instead, he proposes
a game. He tells Dae-su that if he discovers the reason for
his imprisonment in five days, then he will kill himself.
If not, he will kill Mido. Only five days are given to Dae-su
to find out the reason behind the guy¡¯s grudge against Dae-su.
While doing so, hidden secrets about Dae-su and Mido's relationship
are revealed.
