GOKOK: SOUL
Why did you do it?
Why did you have to kill
my innocent wife and son?
You could have killed only me.
Tell me why.
Tell me why!
This was all your doing.
What have you done?
You have created more bad karma.
And you have brought upon
another retribution.
I despise you.
I truly
despise you.
What do you mean?
I will be born again
with this scar
that you have given me.
Bulgasal is dead.
You killed that which cannot be killed.
But how?
A sword in his body…
Bulgasal…
Has he become a Monster himself?
Commander.
He is a Monster.
He has turned into Bulgasal.
He is Bulgasal.
He will kill us. He will kill us all!
EPISODE 2
He was not a human, my lord.
We should not have trusted someone
who was of ominous birth.
He sacrificed his family
and subordinates to become Bulgasal.
Where are the bodies
of my daughter and grandson?
He must have taken them with him.
He looked like a beast
as he stared at his dead son.
The Royal Court has ordered Hwal,
who has become Bulgasal, to be killed.
If he cannot be killed,
he must be buried alive
and sealed in the ground.
Tell the Royal Court
that I, Dan Geuk, will do it myself.
There are no traces of him.
The sun will set soon,
and Bulgasal will be rampant.
Where is the General?
Due to his arm, he decided to stay
at the foot of the mountain.
I knew you would come
to find me once I was alone.
Is it true that you have become Bulgasal?
Answer me.
Did you sacrifice your men
and become an evil spirit?
Did you really kill Sol
and A-chan with your own hands?
Please kill me.
What?
I cannot die.
I jumped off a cliff
and stabbed myself with a sword,
but I did not die.
I have
truly become…
an immortal Monster.
I have become an evil spirit…
who feeds off human blood.
So it is true.
The Royal Court wants you dead.
If you cannot die,
I will cut you into pieces
and seal you shut at the bottom of a well.
I will ask you one last time.
Did you really kill Sol and A-chan
with your own hands?
I did.
I dragged them into this,
promising that I would break the curse.
So I led them to their deaths.
I was not able to forget how Bulgasal
had saved me when I was little.
So I let it go
and that has led to their deaths.
Their necks were torn.
And as they lay dying
with their eyes still open,
I could not do anything.
So I am the one who killed them.
Go.
Flee from the humans and live in hiding.
Do not harm them.
Why are you doing this?
I am Bulgasal who feeds off their blood.
You are not a Monster.
You were born a human and lived as one.
You have the heart of a human.
So live no matter what.
Kill it!
Behead it!
I saw everything.
That man… No.
That evil spirit wishes to die.
Behead it and put it in the well.
He used to be a human,
so he will not hurt them.
Will you disobey a Royal order?
Monsters must be killed.
He was our comrade
who also sacrificed his life.
He saved our lives many--
I told you not to trust anyone
who was of lowly and ominous birth.
I will tell the Royal Court
that you died while fighting Bulgasal.
Kill it! Kill Bulgasal!
No!
Do you truly wish…
to become a Monster?
Let's go.
Come with me.
Come.
You need to be treated right away.
Let me take you to the village.
It is too late.
Worry about yourself.
Since I have failed,
the Royal Court will send
someone else to do the deed.
It is not too late. Please get up.
Promise me…
that you will never feed off human blood.
Answer me.
Answer me out loud.
Yes, Father.
No matter how many centuries go by,
you must remain a human.
Yes, Father.
Good.
Now…
I would like to rest.
Take me to my daughter.
I must ask her for forgiveness.
All my life,
I have been neglectful of Sol.
I avoided her.
Her abnormal power
of reading people's pasts…
Everyone talked behind her back.
I considered her a strange being myself.
I should have treated her better.
I should have embraced her
when she lost her mother…
and her daughter.
Father…
What you said came true.
Those who were
by my side have all perished
due to Bulgasal's grudge against me.
Is there more to the curse
that you have yet to tell me?
Oh, Bulgasal.
Please let your anger subside.
Please put an end to this cycle of death.
Please put an end
to this bloody carnage.
Why have I become Bulgasal?
Bulgasal is immortal
because it has no soul.
The former Bulgasal took yours.
That is why you have become Bulgasal.
Then what has happened to that woman?
She died as a human.
And she will reincarnate as a human.
She became a human
and will reincarnate as one?
I will be born again
with this scar that you have given me.
You murdered my family
and made me immortal by stealing my soul.
You threw me into this agony.
Then it is my turn to hunt her.
I will let you know
how agonizing it is
to be chased by Bulgasal.
No matter how many times
you are reincarnated,
I will make sure
to find you and get my revenge.
YEAR 1593, JOSEON
JAPANESE INVASION
Let's go!
Stop right there!
Stay still!
Let me go!
Do you want to die?
It is a Monster!
Run!
Promise me that you will never
feed off human blood.
No matter
how many centuries go by,
you must remain a human.
3 YEARS LATER
Have you seen this woman before?
I have seen a drawing
of the same woman.
How did you know about my drawing?
I spotted this woman
passing by the village.
I could not forget
the sight of her so I drew this.
Where did she go?
I killed her.
How long ago was it?
I felt the desire to kill
as soon as I saw her.
It felt like I was born to kill her.
I never felt this way when killing others.
Strangely enough, there was
another man who looked for her.
Who was it?
A young man with a dark emptiness.
He said he was after her soul.
That was when I realized
that I, alongside many others,
was after her soul.
You will pay for this.
I will remember your soul
and I will get my revenge.
I know now.
The soul you are after is actually mine.
You desire to take revenge on me, not her.
You were a Monster
in your previous life and I killed you.
You should not have reincarnated
as a human,
but here you are.
That was also what the man
with the dark emptiness said.
He said I was a murderer
because I was a Monster
in my previous life.
Why was I born like this?
Does this mean I am not human?
Kill me with that sword of yours.
Please…
You are not a human, are you?
I knew it.
Seeing how you do not die,
you must be Bulgasal.
You have no soul so you live forever.
I envy you.
I wonder how that feels.
How does it feel?
I feel endless pain,
so how could you envy me?
This is the underworld.
This is hell!
Take this old man's soul, dear Bulgasal!
Or will I also turn into Bulgasal
if I ate your flesh?
If you go after that woman again
in your next life,
I will…
kill you then as well.
What should I do now?
Things have gotten quite complicated.
You finally became a human
after taking my soul.
But you also took my karma.
Hang in there.
Before a reincarnated Monster gets to you,
I will find you first.
YEAR 2006
You startled me.
My goodness. I thought you were a ghost.
Why are you so startled?
I mean, you suddenly came out of nowhere.
I have a weak heart,
so even the slightest scare
gets it racing.
Maybe I died
after seeing a ghost in my previous life.
That's understandable.
You were at that village after all.
Sorry?
Hey.
Take this and leave.
Stay away from the village for now.
Something terrible has happened!
By the way, you could have come
to the detective agency.
Why do we have
to always meet in spooky places?
It's quiet as a grave.
I don't like meeting people.
I have a social phobia.
You're looking
for a woman and a girl?
These are quite old.
They're the same person.
Please look for her.
What? But these are so old. How--
She probably hasn't changed.
YEAR 2006, SANGYONG CITY
Hey, what's wrong?
That car has been following me
ever since I left school.
No. Don't look.
Why not? Why is it following you?
Beats me.
That car followed me all the way here.
I even memorized the license plate.
It's 3847.
That's so pathetic.
You've been talking nonsense these days.
You remind me of your sister.
Hey, I agree
that Sang-yeon is a bit strange.
But I'm not like her.
We're totally different.
That's true. She was a top student.
Unlike you.
Are you kidding me?
I can do well if I want to.
I just don't.
But is she really
not coming back to school?
What does she do at home?
I don't know.
She stays in her room all day long.
She doesn't even clean or do the laundry.
When our mom's off to work,
I have to do everything at home.
She's so annoying.
But there's one thing she always tells me.
"If a stranger follows you,
run away as fast as you can."
What? He just left.
Seriously, that's so pathetic.
JEON BOUTIQUE
33G 3847
Dad, Grandma bought me these socks.
Sang-un, what's wrong?
A strange man was following me.
A strange man?
He was tailing me with his car,
so I ran away.
Did you see his face?
What did he look like?
I don't know.
He was wearing a hoodie. It was dark too.
I told you to always wear a mask outside.
It's suffocating.
Did he see your face?
Yes.
He got out of the car
and asked to see my shoulder.
He must have been some pervert.
Sang-yeon, what's wrong?
He…
BULGASAL
He's here.
I'm home.
Sorry for being late.
Work ended late.
Did you have cup noodles for dinner again?
Where are your sisters?
They left me here…
and went somewhere.
Where did they go?
Where are we going?
Bulgasal knows where we live.
We need to go where he can't find us.
Where is that?
And shouldn't we at least tell Mom?
She'd be worried.
Sang-yeon.
Sang-yeon.
-What is it?
-It feels like
a cockroach is crawling all over my body.
I'm getting goosebumps,
and my hands are trembling.
Look.
Sang-yeon, that bus driver
keeps following us.
Don't look at him.
Keep walking.
Don't follow us.
Sang-yeon.
I think I know you.
-I think I do.
-Keep following, and I'll kill you.
The smell of your soul.
The smell of your soul.
-Who are you?
-Sir.
-Why are you doing this? Go away!
-Who are you?
Hey, Han-su!
What's going on?
Hey.
-What are you doing?
-Stop it.
-Hey!
-Let me go!
-Get a grip!
-Get a hold of yourself!
Who was that man?
-Do you guys know each other?
-He wasn't human.
He may have reincarnated as a human,
but he used to be a Monster.
A Monster?
He's after my soul.
Your hands trembled
and you got goosebumps in the bus, right?
Yes. What was that about?
It means you recognize them as well.
You recognize those Monsters
from the past.
This won't be the last time you meet one.
-Next time--
-Have you always had
that knife with you?
Can't we report whatever it is
that's looking for you to the police?
The police are useless.
We can't trust them either.
Why is it looking for you?
It holds a grudge
from the past.
Specifically, from its previous life.
Previous life?
Are you still on about that?
I told you I remember.
But you don't believe me.
You know what?
Let's just go home.
We can't. It'll hunt us down.
That man you just saw
is nothing compared to it.
The most frightening thing
is Bulgasal.
Bulgasal? I don't care.
I'm going to call Mom
and ask her to pick us up!
That's why I told you not to go outside.
I told you to wear a mask.
Since we look the same,
you'd grab their attention.
If Bulgasal spots you, we'll both be dead!
Do you think I wanted to be your twin?
I never asked for this!
I didn't do anything,
so why should I run away as well?
I agree with my friends.
You're so strange.
I think you're insane!
Everything including Bulgasal is made up!
How much longer do we need to walk?
I'm hungry.
We're almost there. It's that house.
Whose house is this?
A longtime friend's.
She'll help us.
I told you I'd be back.
Is it you, sister?
Is it you?
It's…
It's you!
Sister?
Hey, are you done talking?
Can we leave now?
Stay here for the time being.
I have somewhere to go.
Are you telling me
to stay here without you?
Why?
Can't I just tag along?
That'll only put both of us in danger.
So listen carefully
to what I'm about to say.
I don't want to hear it.
I'm going with you. Where's my bag?
Listen to me. Don't call our house.
You can never go back there.
If you don't listen to me,
your family will die because of you.
They're all going to die?
What do you mean by "your family"?
They're your family too.
Promise me you'll do as I say.
Promise me you won't go back there.
Answer me!
Fine. I promise.
It won't take long, right?
Be a good girl.
Where are you going?
I need to go back
and put an end to this karma.
This is my final chance.
I need to find the sword
that can kill Bulgasal.
The same sword…
that killed me 600 years ago.
She shouldn't have reincarnated like this.
Sang-un, where are you?
Are you okay?
Yes. I'm okay.
Is Sang-yeon with you?
No.
Not anymore.
She's not with me.
She said I shouldn't go back home.
She said our entire family would die
if I did.
I don't know what to do.
I'm scared.
Where are you?
I'll come pick you up, okay?
Where are you?
You can't go! Come back here.
Hurry up. Good grief. Come, now.
She told you not to go back home.
She said you'd die if you did.
You…
HAYONG BUS TERMINAL
33G 3847
Gosh, they're under construction again.
Let's go.
Where's Si-ho?
She's at her friend's.
You look after her tomorrow.
I'll look for Sang-yeon
first thing in the morning.
Okay.
APARTMENT STAIRS UNDER CONSTRUCTION
-Sang-yeon!
-Sang-yeon!
I told you not to come here.
Sang-yeon, look--
We have no time. Go somewhere else.
What's going on?
Tell me. I'll--
Stop it!
I'm not your daughter.
-Sang-yeon.
-Get out of here if you want to live.
Mom.
What is that sound?
Run.
Go.
Hello? There's…
There's something strange
in our apartment.
Well, I don't think it's a person.
If it comes in here,
go next door through this.
-Sang-yeon.
-What is it?
I have something to say.
I…
Well…
Who are you?
It's trying to get inside my apartment.
Please hurry!
Is it a dead end? What should we do?
Stop that!
Listen. I'll grab onto it
and buy you some time.
-Run away with your mom.
-What about you?
I'm done for. This was my final chance.
Final chance for what?
I won't reincarnate anymore.
Stop that! The police are coming!
Go hide in that room
while I buy you some time.
No. I'll protect you two.
I will.
So go hide in your room.
Hide in here. Hurry.
No.
We have no time.
Don't come out of there.
I don't want to be alone.
Listen carefully. You have to live.
Live in hiding, and don't trust anyone.
And…
look for a way to kill Bulgasal.
How? How do I look for it?
You'll recognize it.
It's…
Get out of my house!
Get out!
Sang-yeon!
Sang-yeon!
Run.
How could something like this happen?
-The police are here.
-It happened up there?
She's alive.
One of them is alive!
Where is your younger sister?
Can you tell me
what happened?
Excuse me.
Min Sang-un.
Do you remember the culprit's face?
Mom.
Sang-yeon.
Listen carefully. You have to live.
Live in hiding, and don't trust anyone.
And look for a way to kill Bulgasal.
PATIENT NAME: MIN SANG-UN
Please…
let us live here.
15 YEARS LATER, PRESENT DAY
Who are you?
Oh, I'm looking for someone.
Didn't two sisters live here?
-The older sister's name is Min Sang-un.
-Min Sang-un?
I don't recognize that name.
But two sisters did live here
with their grandma.
Where are they now?
All three of them vanished into thin air.
They ran away in the middle of the night
as if loan sharks were after them.
By the way, who are you?
Why are you--
Sang-un is someone I know very well.
I've known her for a long time.
How was she?
She was…
Hyeon-ju.
That's your name, right?
You should take a breather.
I'm all done.
I heard you're a laundry plant rookie.
Isn't it tough?
Geez. This is a cakewalk.
I've worked all sorts of jobs,
and this is nothing.
Goodness.
She's incredible.
Come join us.
Coming.
Gosh, it's hot.
Do you live in Sangyong City?
I do. I recently moved here.
I must have itchy feet.
I move around a lot.
Are you married?
Goodness. Of course. I must look young.
Then what does your husband do?
Why are you here?
All husbands are the same.
He's jobless and at home.
Is he?
I guess all husbands, no matter their age,
are a pain in the neck.
I agree. He may look like a grown-up,
but he's still a kid.
Who eats a lot.
And likes to spend money.
Oh, right. I'd like to take
today's night shift off.
Would that be okay?
What's gotten into you?
You always worked day in, day out.
I need to head home early today.
What for?
Is it your wedding anniversary?
I guess they're still newlyweds.
Right!
Not really.
Today's just a special day.
What kind of a special day?
She's piqued my curiosity.
Gosh, you're always curious
about things. I just don't get it.
I just want to know what today is.
WE DEMAND A CLEAR RELOCATION PLAN
FROM THE CONSTRUCTOR!
EUNBAEK APARTMENT IS OFF LIMITS
DUE TO DEMOLITION WORK
Hide in here. Hurry.
No.
We have no time.
No. I'll protect you two.
I will.
Stop that! The police are coming!
Sang-un, don't forget what I told you.
Sang-yeon!
Sang-yeon!
-Sang-yeon.
-What is it?
I have something to say.
I couldn't tell you…
that I was sorry…
for not believing you.
You're so strange. I think you're insane!
I'm sorry for calling you insane.
I wanted to come one last time
before they demolished this place.
Today's the day you and Mom died.
I'm sorry, Sang-yeon.
It took me…
fifteen years to come back here.
I'm sorry.
I've been doing as you told me to.
Listen carefully. You have to live.
Live in hiding.
I survived.
And I'm still living in hiding.
And don't trust anyone.
I don't trust anyone.
And look for a way to kill Bulgasal.
But Sang-yeon…
You'll recognize it. It's…
I don't remember what you said after that.
It must have been important.
But I can't remember.
I'm sorry.
BULGASAL: IMMORTAL SOULS
Subtitle translation by: Soo-ji Kim
What in the world is Bulgasal?
Why have you been searching
for Min Sang-un for the past 15 years?
Why are you Monsters
trying so hard to kill me?
It was you, wasn't it?
Stay away, you murderer!
Where are you going?
I finally found you.

It felt like I was born to kill her.
I never felt this way when killing others.
Strangely enough, there was
another man who looked for her.
Who was it?
A young man with a dark emptiness.
He said he was after her soul.
That was when I realized
that I, alongside many others,
was after her soul.
You will pay for this.
I will remember your soul
and I will get my revenge.
I know now.
The soul you are after is actually mine.
You desire to take revenge on me, not her.
You were a Monster
in your previous life and I killed you.
You should not have reincarnated
as a human,
but here you are.
That was also what the man
with the dark emptiness said.
He said I was a murderer
because I was a Monster
in my previous life.
Why was I born like this?
Does this mean I am not human?
Kill me with that sword of yours.
Please…
You are not a human, are you?
I knew it.
Seeing how you do not die,
you must be Bulgasal.
You have no soul so you live forever.
I envy you.
I wonder how that feels.
How does it feel?
I feel endless pain,
so how could you envy me?
This is the underworld.
This is hell!
Take this old man's soul, dear Bulgasal!
Or will I also turn into Bulgasal
if I ate your flesh?
If you go after that woman again
in your next life,
I will…
kill you then as well.
What should I do now?
Things have gotten quite complicated.
You finally became a human
after taking my soul.
But you also took my karma.
Hang in there.
Before a reincarnated Monster gets to you,
I will find you first.
YEAR 2006
You startled me.
My goodness. I thought you were a ghost.
Why are you so startled?
I mean, you suddenly came out of nowhere.
I have a weak heart,
so even the slightest scare
gets it racing.
Maybe I died
after seeing a ghost in my previous life.
That's understandable.
You were at that village after all.
Sorry?
Hey.
Take this and leave.
Stay away from the village for now.
Something terrible has happened!
By the way, you could have come
to the detective agency.
Why do we have
to always meet in spooky places?
It's quiet as a grave.
I don't like meeting people.
I have a social phobia.
You're looking
for a woman and a girl?
These are quite old.
They're the same person.
Please look for her.
What? But these are so old. How--
She probably hasn't changed.
YEAR 2006, SANGYONG CITY
Hey, what's wrong?
That car has been following me
ever since I left school.
No. Don't look.
Why not? Why is it following you?
Beats me.
That car followed me all the way here.
I even memorized the license plate.
It's 3847.
That's so pathetic.
You've been talking nonsense these days.
You remind me of your sister.
Hey, I agree
that Sang-yeon is a bit strange.
But I'm not like her.
We're totally different.
That's true. She was a top student.
Unlike you.
Are you kidding me?
I can do well if I want to.
I just don't.
But is she really
not coming back to school?
What does she do at home?
I don't know.
She stays in her room all day long.
She doesn't even clean or do the laundry.
When our mom's off to work,
I have to do everything at home.
She's so annoying.
But there's one thing she always tells me.
"If a stranger follows you,
run away as fast as you can."
What? He just left.
Seriously, that's so pathetic.
JEON BOUTIQUE
33G 3847
Dad, Grandma bought me these socks.
Sang-un, what's wrong?
A strange man was following me.
A strange man?
He was tailing me with his car,
so I ran away.
Did you see his face?
What did he look like?
I don't know.
He was wearing a hoodie. It was dark too.
I told you to always wear a mask outside.
It's suffocating.
Did he see your face?
Yes.
He got out of the car
and asked to see my shoulder.
He must have been some pervert.
Sang-yeon, what's wrong?
He…
BULGASAL
He's here.
I'm home.
Sorry for being late.
Work ended late.
Did you have cup noodles for dinner again?
Where are your sisters?
They left me here…
and went somewhere.
Where did they go?
Where are we going?
Bulgasal knows where we live.
We need to go where he can't find us.
Where is that?
And shouldn't we at least tell Mom?
She'd be worried.
Sang-yeon.
Sang-yeon.
-What is it?
-It feels like
a cockroach is crawling all over my body.
I'm getting goosebumps,
and my hands are trembling.
Look.
Sang-yeon, that bus driver
keeps following us.
Don't look at him.
Keep walking.
Don't follow us.
Sang-yeon.
I think I know you.
-I think I do.
-Keep following, and I'll kill you.
The smell of your soul.
The smell of your soul.
-Who are you?
-Sir.
-Why are you doing this? Go away!
-Who are you?
Hey, Han-su!
What's going on?
Hey.
-What are you doing?
-Stop it.
-Hey!
-Let me go!
-Get a grip!
-Get a hold of yourself!
Who was that man?
-Do you guys know each other?
-He wasn't human.
He may have reincarnated as a human,
but he used to be a Monster.
A Monster?
He's after my soul.
Your hands trembled
and you got goosebumps in the bus, right?
Yes. What was that about?
It means you recognize them as well.
You recognize those Monsters
from the past.
This won't be the last time you meet one.
-Next time--
-Have you always had
that knife with you?
Can't we report whatever it is
that's looking for you to the police?
The police are useless.
We can't trust them either.
Why is it looking for you?
It holds a grudge
from the past.
Specifically, from its previous life.
Previous life?
Are you still on about that?
I told you I remember.
But you don't believe me.
You know what?
Let's just go home.
We can't. It'll hunt us down.
That man you just saw
is nothing compared to it.
The most frightening thing
is Bulgasal.
Bulgasal? I don't care.
I'm going to call Mom
and ask her to pick us up!
That's why I told you not to go outside.
I told you to wear a mask.
Since we look the same,
you'd grab their attention.
If Bulgasal spots you, we'll both be dead!
Do you think I wanted to be your twin?
I never asked for this!
I didn't do anything,
so why should I run away as well?
I agree with my friends.
You're so strange.
I think you're insane!
Everything including Bulgasal is made up!
How much longer do we need to walk?
I'm hungry.
We're almost there. It's that house.
Whose house is this?
A longtime friend's.
She'll help us.
I told you I'd be back.
Is it you, sister?
Is it you?
It's…
It's you!
Sister?
Hey, are you done talking?
Can we leave now?
Stay here for the time being.
I have somewhere to go.
Are you telling me
to stay here without you?
Why?
Can't I just tag along?
That'll only put both of us in danger.
So listen carefully
to what I'm about to say.
I don't want to hear it.
I'm going with you. Where's my bag?
Listen to me. Don't call our house.
You can never go back there.
If you don't listen to me,
your family will die because of you.
They're all going to die?
What do you mean by "your family"?
They're your family too.
Promise me you'll do as I say.
Promise me you won't go back there.
Answer me!
Fine. I promise.
It won't take long, right?
Be a good girl.
Where are you going?
I need to go back
and put an end to this karma.
This is my final chance.
I need to find the sword
that can kill Bulgasal.
The same sword…
that killed me 600 years ago.
She shouldn't have reincarnated like this.
Sang-un, where are you?
Are you okay?
Yes. I'm okay.
Is Sang-yeon with you?
No.
Not anymore.
She's not with me.
She said I shouldn't go back home.
She said our entire family would die
if I did.
I don't know what to do.
I'm scared.
Where are you?
I'll come pick you up, okay?
Where are you?
You can't go! Come back here.
Hurry up. Good grief. Come, now.
She told you not to go back home.
She said you'd die if you did.
You…
HAYONG BUS TERMINAL
33G 3847
Gosh, they're under construction again.
Let's go.
Where's Si-ho?
She's at her friend's.
You look after her tomorrow.
I'll look for Sang-yeon
first thing in the morning.
Okay.
APARTMENT STAIRS UNDER CONSTRUCTION
-Sang-yeon!
-Sang-yeon!
I told you not to come here.
Sang-yeon, look--
We have no time. Go somewhere else.
What's going on?
Tell me. I'll--
Stop it!
I'm not your daughter.
-Sang-yeon.
-Get out of here if you want to live.
Mom.
What is that sound?
Run.
Go.
Hello? There's…
There's something strange
in our apartment.
Well, I don't think it's a person.
If it comes in here,
go next door through this.
-Sang-yeon.
-What is it?
I have something to say.
I…
Well…
Who are you?
It's trying to get inside my apartment.
Please hurry!
Is it a dead end? What should we do?
Stop that!
Listen. I'll grab onto it
and buy you some time.
-Run away with your mom.
-What about you?
I'm done for. This was my final chance.
Final chance for what?
I won't reincarnate anymore.
Stop that! The police are coming!
Go hide in that room
while I buy you some time.
No. I'll protect you two.
I will.
So go hide in your room.
Hide in here. Hurry.
No.
We have no time.
Don't come out of there.
I don't want to be alone.
Listen carefully. You have to live.
Live in hiding, and don't trust anyone.
And…
look for a way to kill Bulgasal.
How? How do I look for it?
You'll recognize it.
It's…
Get out of my house!
Get out!
Sang-yeon!
Sang-yeon!
Run.
How could something like this happen?
-The police are here.
-It happened up there?
She's alive.
One of them is alive!
Where is your younger sister?
Can you tell me
what happened?
Excuse me.
Min Sang-un.
Do you remember the culprit's face?
Mom.
Sang-yeon.
Listen carefully. You have to live.
Live in hiding, and don't trust anyone.
And look for a way to kill Bulgasal.
PATIENT NAME: MIN SANG-UN
Please…
let us live here.
15 YEARS LATER, PRESENT DAY
Who are you?
Oh, I'm looking for someone.
Didn't two sisters live here?
-The older sister's name is Min Sang-un.
-Min Sang-un?
I don't recognize that name.
But two sisters did live here
with their grandma.
Where are they now?
All three of them vanished into thin air.
They ran away in the middle of the night
as if loan sharks were after them.
By the way, who are you?
Why are you--
Sang-un is someone I know very well.
I've known her for a long time.
How was she?
She was…
Hyeon-ju.
That's your name, right?
You should take a breather.
I'm all done.
I heard you're a laundry plant rookie.
Isn't it tough?
Geez. This is a cakewalk.
I've worked all sorts of jobs,
and this is nothing.
Goodness.
She's incredible.
Come join us.
Coming.
Gosh, it's hot.
Do you live in Sangyong City?
I do. I recently moved here.
I must have itchy feet.
I move around a lot.
Are you married?
Goodness. Of course. I must look young.
Then what does your husband do?
Why are you here?
All husbands are the same.
He's jobless and at home.
Is he?
I guess all husbands, no matter their age,
are a pain in the neck.
I agree. He may look like a grown-up,
but he's still a kid.
Who eats a lot.
And likes to spend money.
Oh, right. I'd like to take
today's night shift off.
Would that be okay?
What's gotten into you?
You always worked day in, day out.
I need to head home early today.
What for?
Is it your wedding anniversary?
I guess they're still newlyweds.
Right!
Not really.
Today's just a special day.
What kind of a special day?
She's piqued my curiosity.
Gosh, you're always curious
about things. I just don't get it.
I just want to know what today is.
WE DEMAND A CLEAR RELOCATION PLAN
FROM THE CONSTRUCTOR!
EUNBAEK APARTMENT IS OFF LIMITS
DUE TO DEMOLITION WORK
Hide in here. Hurry.
No.
We have no time.
No. I'll protect you two.
I will.
Stop that! The police are coming!
Sang-un, don't forget what I told you.
Sang-yeon!
Sang-yeon!
-Sang-yeon.
-What is it?
I have something to say.
I couldn't tell you…
that I was sorry…
for not believing you.
You're so strange. I think you're insane!
I'm sorry for calling you insane.
I wanted to come one last time
before they demolished this place.
Today's the day you and Mom died.
I'm sorry, Sang-yeon.
It took me…
fifteen years to come back here.
I'm sorry.
I've been doing as you told me to.
Listen carefully. You have to live.
Live in hiding.
I survived.
And I'm still living in hiding.
And don't trust anyone.
I don't trust anyone.
And look for a way to kill Bulgasal.
But Sang-yeon…
You'll recognize it. It's…
I don't remember what you said after that.
It must have been important.
But I can't remember.
I'm sorry.
BULGASAL: IMMORTAL SOULS
Subtitle translation by: Soo-ji Kim
What in the world is Bulgasal?
Why have you been searching
for Min Sang-un for the past 15 years?
Why are you Monsters
trying so hard to kill me?
It was you, wasn't it?
Stay away, you murderer!
Where are you going?
I finally found you.
