How to explain these combined phrases?
These days, I'm always feeling strange about one sentence frequently used. It is:
There are many things need to be done.
I know this sentence could be devided into 2 separate parts:
1) There are many things. 2) The things need to be done
But, I guess there's one word 'that' is omitted in this sentence. The full sentence should be:
There are many things that need to be done.
I'm not quite sure whether there's any grammar error with this sentence. Your help will be appreciated.

I asked my American coworker, shey told me we do need to add the 'that' into that sentence. The fist one without 'that' is wrong.
