My Man Is Cupid (2023) s01e03 Episode Script
The Nobleman of Fate and the Plum Blossom Man
1
Mr. Superman.
Are you okay?
Are you okay?
-Yes, I'm fine.
-Are you sure you're okay?
Let me see.
You didn't get hurt.
You didn't get hurt at all.
Why didn't you get hurt?
What?
-Was I supposed to get hurt?
-Why is he fine?
Was I not supposed to be fine?
This doesn't make sense.
Your back should have been broken.
-What?
-Your shoulders should have been crushed.
-Your arm must be broken, at least!
-How can you say that?
How about your legs? Are they okay?
You should have enough injuries
to be in hospital for 50 weeks.
What? 50 weeks?
-You mean 12 months? A year?
-Yes.
It's always been like that.
What do you mean?
Men around me
would get struck by lightning
or pass out after choking on cold water.
One even fell and broke his nose.
He lost a lot of blood and went to the ER.
My goodness.
One nearly died from eating pudding.
Pudding?
So why…
You don't even have a scratch on you.
You didn't even bleed a drop.
-Was I supposed to bleed?
-This is a miracle.
Stop looking at me.
Thank you!
Thank you, Mr. Superman.
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
I'm sorry.
What was that all about?
I didn't do anything.
You started hugging me.
So who was that man?
Can't you tell from the fight?
We're not close at all.
Right. So why did you fight
in front of me?
Given the circumstances,
I think I saved you
from being attacked by that man.
Oh, that's right.
I was so glad that you're okay
that I forgot what happened exactly.
Are you sure he's not a stalker?
You seemed popular.
So, that's what he was. A stalker.
Why are you walking around
so late at night?
-I was just passing through.
-Passing here?
You were passing through a dark alley?
I'm meeting someone at a tripe restaurant
nearby, and this is the shortcut.
Otherwise, I have to go around.
My friend is already grilling
four portions of beef tripe.
I'm in a hurry.
Don't put yourself in danger,
just to be a few minutes early.
Take the safe route. Okay?
Okay.
By the way, why are you here?
What brought you to this dark alley?
You could have taken the safe route.
-This is the shortcut.
-Where are you going?
-To the beef tripe restaurant.
-You like beef tripe too?
-Yes.
-Why do we have so much in common?
We met at the makgeolli place.
-Now you're on your way to a tripe place.
-I didn't go there to drink.
Where is your dinner reservation?
Why would you want to know that?
We must be meant to be if we're
going to the same places.
"Meant to be"?
-How are we "meant to be"?
-The makgeolli place and the tripe place.
-If this isn't fate, I don't know what is.
-Just a coincidence.
-A coincidence.
-It's fate.
Where is that beef tripe place?
Wherever it is,
it's not where you are going.
How do you know
which restaurant I'm going to?
-I just have a feeling.
-Do you?
Why don't we go and check together?
Let's see if we're going
to the same place.
Let's go.
-Aren't you coming?
-Do we have to go together?
I want to go by myself.
Why? You think I'll get clingy
if it's the same place?
Let's just check.
EP3. THE NOBLEMAN OF FATE
AND THE PLUM BLOSSOM MAN
WANGSIMNI AUTHENTIC BEEF TRIPE
Come to the authentic one.
REAL BEEF TRIPE
Come to our stall!
Which one is it? Authentic or Real?
Why are there
Wangsimni restaurants in Gugi-dong?
It doesn't matter,
as long as it tastes good.
Which is it?
Wangsimni Authentic or Real Beef Tripe?
-Which one are you going to?
-Authentic Tripe.
Oh, I see.
I'm going to Real Beef Tripe.
-We're meant to be.
-What?
-I'm headed to Real Tripe.
-But you said the other one!
I just lied.
I just lied too.
In fact, I'm headed here.
Really? Me too.
Why do you keep changing?
Why don't you go to the place
you were originally going to?
You're the one who keeps lying.
My friend is waiting for me,
so I can't lie anymore.
So,
go in first.
My gosh.
Welcome!
Are you serious?
No.
Then why are you here?
I had to tell you something.
Tell me what?
Thank you.
You saved me earlier.
Oh, that.
Anyone would've done the same.
Yes, that's probably true.
But I'm grateful it was you, Mr. Superman.
I'm glad that you're safe.
That's what I'm most grateful for.
Enjoy your dinner then. I'm sorry,
but I'm headed to Authentic Beef Tripe.
Bye.
Are you here by yourself?
Can I have it to go?
Welcome.
Did you have an octopus or what?
Why are you limping?
It's the first time that nobody got hurt.
Who didn't get hurt?
He didn't get hurt.
He didn't even have a scratch on him.
He didn't even bleed a drop.
Who? When? Where?
What? How? Why?
Please walk me through it.
On my way here, a stalker followed me.
What? A stalker? Again?
Who was it?
What kind of jerk was it this time?
What poor bastard would stalk you?
Is he okay?
Keep going. What happened?
The stalker followed me
and was about to attack me,
when a man suddenly appeared
like Superman and saved me.
He caught the stalker and punched him.
He punched the stalker twice.
He punched and pushed him.
They were fighting.
Then a big pot fell.
He didn't get hurt.
He didn't?
Yeah, he didn't get hurt.
He didn't get hurt at all.
Supermen don't get hurt
because of small fights.
Drink.
He didn't even have a scratch.
He didn't?
My hard work
is finally starting to pay off.
I guess my prayers in the mountain
are starting to work now.
The light of romance
started to shine on me.
This is the man.
He's the man of my destiny.
WANGSIMNI AUTHENTIC BEEF TRIPE
The man I'm destined
to be with is finally here!
Did you climb up the mountain
a thousand times?
Not yet. Six more to go.
Then he's not your destiny.
You said he'd be there
on the thousandth day.
Maybe they just sent him ahead of time.
-Like a trailer.
-Are you checking samples?
I think you just like him.
Did you fall for Superman?
What would you do if you
and the mountain god have different ideas?
Then what happens?
Let's say they send him to you
on the thousandth day…
My destiny?
No. This can't be happening!
…but he's just not your type.
Then what happens?
Do you have to negotiate
with the mountain god
to get you another guy?
But it's a god.
I'm sure it knows what my ideal type is.
Did you picture your ideal type
when you were hiking?
-No.
-Not even once?
-No.
-Not even a little?
This is bad. It's going to be random.
What do I do now?
For the remaining six times,
picture your ideal type in your head.
Be precise. Clearly tell the god
what your ideal man is like.
Right.
I'll do that.
I'll picture him clearly.
I even know his name.
The police station that got
the first report checked on it.
They couldn't see the umbrella
with the flower print in the picture.
I told them to check again,
but as you can see…
It's impossible to not get off the bus
once you're on it. We missed her.
Let's split up and check.
Detectives Ko and Lee.
From Inwangsan Mountain
to Sungeun Hospital.
-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.
Detective Myung and I will check
from Sungeun Hospital.
Yes, sir.
I don't think she's here.
-She's not here either.
-She isn't here either.
She got off without her umbrella.
What?
But it was snowing the whole time.
She got off without her umbrella.
My goodness.
I love you.
Goodness.
You always kiss people
when you get drunk! Stop!
Hey, did you get
Ddaeng-chil's anal sac treated today?
Don't come near me.
Don't come near me.
Keep that finger away from me!
No!
Cheon Sang-hyuk!
You humiliated me.
You jerk.
Why did you get it treated?
He's already heartbroken over Mi-ja.
She swore at the poor guy.
It will burst
if it's not treated every so often.
-Would you do it instead?
-No.
You don't even have a scratch on you.
There is a scratch.
Thank you so much!
My goodness. It's him!
He must be the one!
He's the one I'm destined to be with!
Six more times to go.
I'm sorry.
Please forgive me.
I'm sorry.
Please forgive me.
I'll tell you my ideal type
because D-day is coming up.
His name is Cheon Sang-hyuk.
Cheon Sang-hyuk!
This is how he looks.
He looks like a fairy.
I should bring a photo of him.
So that there's no confusion.
His photo.
My goodness.
Gosh, how could the place
burn down like this?
-I know.
-Goodness.
She couldn't have made it.
Excuse me. What happened?
Oh, there was a fire last night.
-The owner of this place died.
-What?
How did that happen?
She fell asleep while cooking
Korean pancakes on the stove.
Don't you think it's strange?
She's been selling pancakes for 30 years.
How could she make such a mistake?
-Her children are--
-Oh, no.
I know.
Didn't she say she was going to
install a security camera?
Right. But I don't see it.
She suffocated due to the fire.
OVERDOSE OF SLEEPING PILLS
DETECTED
She either passed out from an overdose.
Or someone drugged her.
DETECTIVE KO
-Detective Ko.
-Sir.
I looked up the number of the
installation technician
who was assigned that day.
It's a burner phone.
-Is it?
-Yes.
He must've contacted someone.
I'll trace his calls.
All right. Keep it up.
I got the sales status of the umbrellas
with the flower patterns.
There are 15 purchases from that area.
Any accidents reported from that area?
None so far.
Let's go and find the flower pattern lady.
-You have this umbrella, right?
-Yes, I do.
You were at Inwangsan Mountain
on December 21st, right?
No.
PEOPLE WHO PURCHASED
A FLOWER-PATTERNED UMBRELLA
SEOUL JONGSEO POLICE STATION
You've done a good job.
-How about a cigarette?
-All right.
By the way, did they find
the other person?
They said it's hard to find him
because there aren't many clues.
Let's wait. They're making progress.
I don't have a photo of him.
Come in.
This is the reservation list for today.
Why don't we have photos of the guardians?
What? Why would we need those?
Well, it's to…
precisely match the pet
with their guardian.
A lot of people will complain
about taking photos.
They won't want to disclose
their personal information.
-Is that so?
-Yes.
I'm going to call Alex's guardian later.
It looks like
he's really going to adopt her.
It's tough for people
when their dogs are sick.
Of course. They have to come
to the hospital a lot too.
You go to the hospital when you're sick.
Hello.
-Hello. It's Oh Baek-ryeon.
-Oh Baek-nyeon?
It's Oh Baek-ryeon.
Gugi-dong Animal Hospital.
Oh, it's you. Dr. Oh Baek-ryeon.
How can I help you?
Well,
how's Ddaeng-chil doing
after his anal sac was treated?
His anal sac?
Is this the best you got?
I think he'll bite me if I check it now.
It's a sensitive area.
It might get infected.
Yes, it's sensitive.
Did you call just to check on that?
It's just that I checked
Ddaeng-chil's medical records.
There's one thing I'm worried about.
He's overweight.
Ddaeng-chil is overweight. He's obese.
Obese?
He likes to eat meat.
He should cut down on meat.
It's all your fault
that the dog is gaining weight.
-Why is that my fault?
-He only eats because you give him food.
-I only give it to him because he asks.
-A dog can't speak.
My dog can talk.
No way.
That's funnier than when
people insist their dogs don't bite.
No, my dog bites.
-He bites me if I don't give him food.
-Speaking of which, could you drop by?
-Drop by the hospital?
-Yes.
He should get a medical checkup.
Obesity is the root of all disease
for people and dogs.
I need to check on him now and then.
Drop by the hospital
when you have the time.
Oh, this was it.
-You want him to get a physical exam.
-What?
I visited only once.
You called me the next morning
to get him a medical checkup.
No, you don't understand.
I'll think about it. I'm hanging up now.
He has to have breakfast.
Mr. Superman.
That's not why I called. Hello?
Hey, come eat!
Come eat!
He thinks I'm a vet
who makes early morning sales calls.
My goodness!
He's going to gossip about me
over breakfast.
My goodness. What do I do?
Are you teasing him or what?
Yesterday, you got his anal sac treated
and today you're feeding it to him?
What are you imagining? It's just food.
But this looks just like that.
We are fairies, remember?
-We don't eat things like this.
-Hey.
You look like someone
who'd love things like this.
Beef tripe for breakfast?
What's gotten into you?
What's that on your forehead?
Did you fight with somebody?
It's nothing. I just fell.
What?
This tastes so good.
This is seriously good.
-It's really delicious!
-It is, right?
They sold it at that restaurant.
Ddaeng-chil,
we're going to the hospital after this.
-Again? Why?
-They said you're obese.
Me?
Hello. This is Seo Jae-hee
of Homicide Unit One.
Hello. I'm calling from
Gugi-dong Animal Hospital.
Am I speaking to Alexandra's guardian?
What? Who?
Right. I'm Alexandra's guardian.
-Yes.
-Alexandra?
-He was so happy to hear from us.
-She met a good guardian, right?
It'll be hard to take care of her though.
Didn't you go to school today?
It's a day off.
-Foundation day?
-No.
There are just days I skip school.
It happens for everyone.
By the way, it looks like
that dog gained some weight.
I'm taking him to the hospital now.
Have a good day.
"Before I called his name,
he was only a gesture.
When I called his name,
he came to me and became a flower."
GUGI-DONG ANIMAL HOSPITAL
-I think I've seen you somewhere before.
-I've never seen you before.
No. You're familiar.
People often say that I look like
that elf in The Lord of the Rings.
I don't think so. That's not you.
Which one are you?
Theft, assault, scam or blackmail?
I'm in charge of murder cases.
Murder cases?
I guess you're an expert.
Even in this lifetime.
What did you say?
Mr. Seo. You can come in.
Okay.
See you later.
I'm sure I'll remember
when I see you again.
Wait.
What's your number?
Let me see your wait number.
I didn't get one.
-What?
-Who does he think he is?
We all have numbers.
WAIT NUMBER 17
It's required here.
So go over there,
take a number and wait in line.
I made an appointment.
An appointment?
You can make appointments here?
If we can do that,
why are we waiting around like idiots?
This is how it works.
You see the vet in the order you arrive.
If your dog is admitted
for a major operation,
then we take appointments.
My dog is recovering from a major surgery.
How's my Alexandra doing today?
-Let's go in.
-Let's go.
A major surgery?
What are you looking at?
Come in.
-Here.
-Okay.
-Thank you.
-You're here.
Yes.
I told you that I'd drop by every day.
Look at them.
-What's going on?
-What's with them?
-What's going on?
-What is it?
-What's happening?
-Are they having a fling?
Goodness, look at him.
Don't tell me they're dating.
Now's the honeymoon stage.
Hey, these dogs are telling me
that those two are going to go out soon.
-Based on what?
-These guys are professionals.
It's not the first time
they've seen their owners dating.
These guys have witnessed so much.
And they can tell that those two
are going to become a couple soon.
I'll be back tomorrow.
Don't push yourself too hard.
Come back when you can.
Okay.
What?
You're here.
Ddaeng-chil can come in.
-Let's go. Come on. Let's go.
-I'm not going.
-I said I'm not going. No!
-Come on.
What makes you think that he's obese?
Well,
the average weight for Labrador Retrievers
is 27 to 36 kilograms.
But Ddaeng-chil is 38 kilograms.
He has to start losing weight.
You need to walk him more.
Cut down on meat.
Control his weight now
if you want to live
a long and happy life with him.
Wait. That scratch.
It's from yesterday, right?
-Let me see.
-No, I'm fine.
Hold on.
Can you come closer?
-I--
-Come here.
I'm glad, though.
You don't need to go to the hospital.
By the way…
do you want to have dinner with me?
I'm finally going to have dinner
with my crush.
How do I make him mine?
You are going to have dinner
with your crush.
How do you make him yours?
Just remember these three things.
LOVE ROOM
Hello.
-May I know the name for your reservation?
-It's Oh Baek-ryeon.
It's Room One.
HISTORY OF THE LOVE ROOM
This way.
This is the room.
MATCHED IN THE LOVE ROOM
It's very nice.
How do you know about this place?
I come here to eat a lot.
First, you pay for the meal today.
Men like girls who pay for the meals.
LOVE ROOM MENU
Why is it so expensive?
Welcome.
Thank you.
Well--
You can order whatever you want.
Order as usual.
-Don't worry about the prices.
-All right, then.
I'll have grilled abalones
and shrimp tartar.
And steamed jumbo shrimp with five-colored
garnish, fried scallops, and japchae.
Don't be too intimidated by the price.
-It's just one meal.
-Lemon juice on top.
She's right. It's just one meal.
I can have ramyeon for the entire month
after having this.
Okay, we'll prepare it for you.
Okay. Thank you.
Oh?
The scratch on your forehead
got all better.
That's because I put on ointment
for you earlier, right?
Wow.
My hand is a healing hand
for you, Mr. Superman.
How can it disappear so quickly
just because of the ointment?
I think we're really meant to be.
Is it your first time here, Baek-ryeon?
-This is a very popular place.
-It is?
Popular for what?
It's where lonely people like you
come for blind dates.
And they leave as couples.
I guess it's a famous place
for blind dates.
Does that mean
that we will leave as a couple today?
We aren't here for a blind date.
Geez, you are pushing me away again.
I saw a lot of wedding photos on the wall.
I guess they got married
after having a blind date here.
Now you know. You should make a wish.
Who knows if Cupid will shoot you
with his arrow?
How much is all this?
I ordered what I usually eat. Is it okay?
Two. Show him that you are listening.
Put on a big smile.
These all look delicious.
He'll imagine what it would be like to be
with you as he sees how positive you are.
Oh, my. This tastes
like heaven.
Goodness.
The food here is so good.
Is it that good?
-Baek-ryeon.
-Yes.
Is there anyone you like among the men
who come to your hospital?
Someone I like?
How about the rich-looking man
who always brings you flowers?
You mean Andre's guardian?
He's not my type.
How about that muscular man
who wears a tank top during winter?
-You mean Bbu-ggu's guardian?
-How about him?
Women like men with muscles.
Men with lean muscles are better.
How about that man
who graduated from that elite college?
You two would have lots to talk about.
We don't. All he did was study.
-How about that tall man?
-Bbo-bbo's guardian?
He's too tall.
He's just too tall.
How about that guy who isn't that tall,
but he has big eyes and facial features?
You mean Pete's guardian.
I don't like men with big eyes,
a high nose, and thick lips.
Baek-ryeon.
There's a reason
you've been single for so long.
Are you sure you want to date someone
from this world?
Your standards are too high!
I can't set it up for you.
Set up what for me?
Well--
You did say that this is
a famous blind date spot.
Do they give a free blind-date coupon
if we eat here?
-No.
-Set up what for me then?
I'm just asking.
So, you don't like any of the men
who come to the hospital?
Three. Show your heart.
That's how you move on to the next step.
I don't form bonds with people.
Especially with women.
Why do you refuse
to form bonds with people?
Don't you want to be in love?
-I don't.
-Why not?
Are you scared that you will get hurt?
Would you still refuse love even if
the right woman comes to you like fate?
-I would refuse.
-Are you sure?
I will never do it.
I doubt it.
Don't say "never."
You don't know what will happen.
If you meet someone you love so much,
she might change your thoughts.
You'll jump into a fiery pit,
forgetting whatever happened earlier.
That's what humans do.
How would you know that?
You said you've never been in love.
I've seen it in TV shows.
There are a lot of people like that
in those shows.
They swear they won't fall in love again.
But they forget about everything
and fall madly in love again.
They give up their lives for their love.
TV shows ruin so many people.
You have no idea.
It gives you a vicarious thrill.
No wonder you're so picky.
There's a reason behind this.
You can just go.
The bill is paid.
All paid?
When? Who?
-He paid in advance.
-What?
Goodbye.
Why did you pay?
I was supposed to treat you.
I saw you trembling
when you were drinking water.
That's because--
I was really thirsty.
I was so happy to see the water.
You think I can't pay for this?
I have a lot of money.
Give me your account number.
I'll transfer you the money.
No, it's all right.
I don't have such a thing.
You don't have such a thing?
Do you have bad credit?
Even if you do,
you should still have a bank account.
You eat here all the time. I can't believe
you don't have a bank account.
You don't want to tell me
your account number.
-What?
-Why don't you want to tell me?
You think I'll ask you out again
because you got the meal?
You don't want a second date with me,
so you paid for the bill.
You're very thorough, aren't you?
You refuse to give me an opening.
-That's not what I meant.
-Whatever.
Why don't we split today's bill?
I feel very uncomfortable
when you treat me to dinner like this.
I'll pay you half via an app.
I don't need your account number.
Bye, then.
What?
But there's one important thing
you need to keep in mind.
First, you pay. Second, you show
that you listen and smile.
Third, show him how you feel.
These three things only work
when the man is interested in you.
If he's not interested in you,
then it won't work at all.
Come to think of it,
he kept asking if I liked any other guys
while we were eating.
He was pushing me away.
He wanted me to look for other guys
instead of liking him.
A way to end your crush?
There is no way.
Why did she get mad at me
when I treated her to an expensive meal?
I'm not going to shoot an arrow for her.
I don't care if you're lonely
or you don't have the red thread of fate.
I won't shoot for you! Ever!
Geez. Damn it!
You have to just let it run its course.
-Damn it!
-Geez!
When you just let it run its course,
there will come a moment when you realize
that you're doing something stupid.
There will be a moment
when you come to your senses.
But until then, no matter how hard
people try to stop you
or try to talk sense into you,
you won't listen. You can't.
You just do it again
even when people tell you not to.
You do it again like an idiot.
It drives you crazy.
You can't stop.
You have to just let it run its course.
What? You're never going to love?
What if I ask the gods
to make you my destiny?
I prayed a thousand times
on top of a cliff
to make my wish come true!
I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
It was my fault. Please forgive me.
Four more times.
Right! His photo.
When can I take his photo?
I have to show the photo soon
to prevent confusion.
A woman?
He went out to have a meal with a woman?
Who was she?
-A vet at the animal hospital.
-What?
Doctor Hwa-ja?
-Of course not.
-But you go to that hospital.
-We switched to another one.
-Where?
Gugi-dong Animal Hospital. It's
right across from Poppy Animal Clinic.
I'm not even obese, but he took me
to the hospital early in the morning.
-Because of the vet?
-Yes. Her name is Oh Baek-ryeon.
That female vet…
she applied ointment
on Sang-hyuk's forehead.
What? Ointment?
Like this.
Like this?
-Something is going on.
-Definitely.
What is it?
What could it be?
I don't know anything.
There was one thing that puzzled me
the most about humans.
-It was inequality.
-Young Master.
How do you make the story sound so fun?
-Is there anything you're bad at?
-I'm just naturally gifted.
It's my turn now.
Do you know what it's called
when a king is in the palace?
"I don't want to go," right?
I can't wait to hear it.
It's called "grumbling."
-Gosh.
-I'm tearing up.
It's my turn now.
Do you know what you say
when a chili smiles?
Gosh, what's with him?
Why chili, though?
It's just a green chili.
Should I have the soldiers take him away?
Here, have a drink.
All right. Let's have a drink.
Bottoms up.
Doesn't it taste nice?
It's nice. You are nice too.
I thought I made a joke too.
I didn't understand why the ladies laughed
only at Dong-chil and Dong-pal's jokes,
while they never bothered
to even smile at me.
You're pretty even when you're eating.
I really did not get it.
It's because you're pretty.
You can't tell the difference?
I can't.
You don't look like them.
You look very different from them.
-Is that the difference?
-Yes, that's it.
Why do women laugh so hard
at their lame jokes?
It's because they're good-looking.
-Is that it?
-That is all.
I was truly shocked.
I couldn't believe looks were
all that mattered to women here.
Hey.
-What are you looking at?
-Sorry?
What are you looking at?
-Why do you keep looking at me?
-I looked at you?
I wasn't looking at you.
You were looking at me.
You've been staring at me.
-I'm telling the truth.
-Don't look at me.
You are getting on my nerves.
Sometimes, I get mad too.
-Excuse me.
-You scared me.
Why are you following me?
You were offended
that I was looking at you?
Yes, I was offended.
I don't feel good at all.
You don't feel good?
You messed with the wrong person.
You're going to regret what you just said.
You're going to fall in love with me!
Are you giving me
the middle finger right now?
What a jerk.
I don't get it.
I really don't get it.
I'm sorry.
I couldn't find anything…
that could be a clue.
My daughter came back after 29 years.
But we can't even figure out
who killed her.
Jeong-ah…
I deeply regret it.
I regret that I have to leave
without catching the culprit.
Cheon Sang-hyuk.
Cheon Sang-hyuk of Gugi-dong.
How can I describe the way he looks?
He looks like…
He looks just like that, like a fairy.
What?
What's going on?
Mr. Superman!
Superman? Who? Where?
Is he wearing the suit?
What brings you here, Mr. Superman?
What brings you here?
I come here a lot. This is my 997th time.
What? How many times?
I was just thinking about you.
Right, I need your photo.
Before I forget.
-What?
-Smile.
I told you to smile. Smile.
Okay.
This one looks better. I got it.
What are you doing?
Can't you see? I'm taking a photo.
So, why are you taking a photo of me?
Well…
-I need it for something.
-You need it for something?
-For what?
-Don't worry.
-It's for something nice.
-I'm not fine with that.
-Delete the photo.
-Goodness.
-I said it's for something nice.
-I'm not okay with it. Delete the photo.
Don't worry.
I'm not posting it on some porn site.
Porn site?
You are unbelievable. Give it to me.
Delete the photo now.
Delete it now.
I'm taking your phone for real.
I mean it.
Just give it to me.
I said give it to me.
Goodness.
You should have just given it to me
when I asked for it.
Excuse me.
Mr. Superman.
Do you want to go for some makgeolli?
The people on this list are the only ones
who had flower-patterned umbrellas.
Why isn't she here?
Why isn't
the flower-patterned lady coming?
Please hurry up and come.
I used to go there a lot,
but as you can see.
Was there a fire?
Yes.
I heard the owner of that place
died.
You mean the lady from that night?
She was a good woman.
You couldn't sleep again last night?
Was it the same dream?
Yes, the same one.
Why don't you get treated?
How about a brain wave test?
I don't think it will help.
I see things covered in blood every day.
It will get better if I quit being a cop.
-Let's go.
-Okay.
When did it start?
I don't really remember.
It started when I was really young.
Then it has nothing to do with your job.
Right.
It's getting clearer lately.
I can almost make out the faces.
What faces?
Based on how they're dressed…
it's the Joseon Dynasty.
Maybe you're seeing your past life
or something.
-My past life?
-Yes.
You don't believe in that?
I do.
You were probably my enemy
in my past life.
That can't be true.
If we were enemies in our past lives,
we would probably be a couple.
Don't even start.
-I hate even the thought of it.
-I hate it too.
-Just go back to eating.
-Okay.
Past life?
I don't know what I did so wrong
in my past life.
They said I'm not meant to be with anyone.
They said that because of what I did,
I'm not meant to be with anyone.
I guess that's why everyone
who tried to get close to me…
They all got hurt.
But I was told that
if I go up this mountain
and hike up to the top of a cliff,
and apologize for what I did
and beg for forgiveness,
then all will be well.
So that's what I've been doing.
You just need to
beg for forgiveness?
Yes.
They said he will come to me…
if I ask for forgiveness a thousand times.
-The one I'm destined to be with.
-The one you're destined to be with?
The man of my destiny.
In order to meet him,
I went up the mountain again and again.
Whether it was raining, snowing, or windy.
As of today…
I've gone up there 997 times.
Why are you so desperate
to be in love?
Why don't you want to be?
It's not that I don't want to.
I just shouldn't.
I don't deserve it.
Who gives you the right?
There are people
who are like that.
-Are you a mama's boy?
-What?
You only date girls
that your mom approves of?
That's not it.
Nobody has the right to approve of anyone.
I make my own destiny.
At one point in time
I used to believe that too.
I was arrogant.
Then what happened?
Then,
I got a cold warning.
They told me not to see her.
So,
did you just give up?
I ignored the warning…
and got hurt badly.
Hello.
I'm at the public parking lot
near Inwangsan Mountain.
You will see me when you get here.
Yes.
Okay.
Sir! There's one more person who bought
that flower-patterned umbrella.
LIMITED EDITION
FLOWER-PATTERNED UMBRELLA
Did you wait a long time?
-No, it's fine.
-Hello.
-Here's the key.
-Thank you.
You can get in the car.
You're that guy
from that night, aren't you?
You're that stalker
from Gugi-dong Food Alley.
I saw this scar on your hand that night.
Subtitle Translation by: Diane Lee
Mr. Superman.
Are you okay?
Are you okay?
-Yes, I'm fine.
-Are you sure you're okay?
Let me see.
You didn't get hurt.
You didn't get hurt at all.
Why didn't you get hurt?
What?
-Was I supposed to get hurt?
-Why is he fine?
Was I not supposed to be fine?
This doesn't make sense.
Your back should have been broken.
-What?
-Your shoulders should have been crushed.
-Your arm must be broken, at least!
-How can you say that?
How about your legs? Are they okay?
You should have enough injuries
to be in hospital for 50 weeks.
What? 50 weeks?
-You mean 12 months? A year?
-Yes.
It's always been like that.
What do you mean?
Men around me
would get struck by lightning
or pass out after choking on cold water.
One even fell and broke his nose.
He lost a lot of blood and went to the ER.
My goodness.
One nearly died from eating pudding.
Pudding?
So why…
You don't even have a scratch on you.
You didn't even bleed a drop.
-Was I supposed to bleed?
-This is a miracle.
Stop looking at me.
Thank you!
Thank you, Mr. Superman.
Thank you so much!
Thank you!
I'm sorry.
What was that all about?
I didn't do anything.
You started hugging me.
So who was that man?
Can't you tell from the fight?
We're not close at all.
Right. So why did you fight
in front of me?
Given the circumstances,
I think I saved you
from being attacked by that man.
Oh, that's right.
I was so glad that you're okay
that I forgot what happened exactly.
Are you sure he's not a stalker?
You seemed popular.
So, that's what he was. A stalker.
Why are you walking around
so late at night?
-I was just passing through.
-Passing here?
You were passing through a dark alley?
I'm meeting someone at a tripe restaurant
nearby, and this is the shortcut.
Otherwise, I have to go around.
My friend is already grilling
four portions of beef tripe.
I'm in a hurry.
Don't put yourself in danger,
just to be a few minutes early.
Take the safe route. Okay?
Okay.
By the way, why are you here?
What brought you to this dark alley?
You could have taken the safe route.
-This is the shortcut.
-Where are you going?
-To the beef tripe restaurant.
-You like beef tripe too?
-Yes.
-Why do we have so much in common?
We met at the makgeolli place.
-Now you're on your way to a tripe place.
-I didn't go there to drink.
Where is your dinner reservation?
Why would you want to know that?
We must be meant to be if we're
going to the same places.
"Meant to be"?
-How are we "meant to be"?
-The makgeolli place and the tripe place.
-If this isn't fate, I don't know what is.
-Just a coincidence.
-A coincidence.
-It's fate.
Where is that beef tripe place?
Wherever it is,
it's not where you are going.
How do you know
which restaurant I'm going to?
-I just have a feeling.
-Do you?
Why don't we go and check together?
Let's see if we're going
to the same place.
Let's go.
-Aren't you coming?
-Do we have to go together?
I want to go by myself.
Why? You think I'll get clingy
if it's the same place?
Let's just check.
EP3. THE NOBLEMAN OF FATE
AND THE PLUM BLOSSOM MAN
WANGSIMNI AUTHENTIC BEEF TRIPE
Come to the authentic one.
REAL BEEF TRIPE
Come to our stall!
Which one is it? Authentic or Real?
Why are there
Wangsimni restaurants in Gugi-dong?
It doesn't matter,
as long as it tastes good.
Which is it?
Wangsimni Authentic or Real Beef Tripe?
-Which one are you going to?
-Authentic Tripe.
Oh, I see.
I'm going to Real Beef Tripe.
-We're meant to be.
-What?
-I'm headed to Real Tripe.
-But you said the other one!
I just lied.
I just lied too.
In fact, I'm headed here.
Really? Me too.
Why do you keep changing?
Why don't you go to the place
you were originally going to?
You're the one who keeps lying.
My friend is waiting for me,
so I can't lie anymore.
So,
go in first.
My gosh.
Welcome!
Are you serious?
No.
Then why are you here?
I had to tell you something.
Tell me what?
Thank you.
You saved me earlier.
Oh, that.
Anyone would've done the same.
Yes, that's probably true.
But I'm grateful it was you, Mr. Superman.
I'm glad that you're safe.
That's what I'm most grateful for.
Enjoy your dinner then. I'm sorry,
but I'm headed to Authentic Beef Tripe.
Bye.
Are you here by yourself?
Can I have it to go?
Welcome.
Did you have an octopus or what?
Why are you limping?
It's the first time that nobody got hurt.
Who didn't get hurt?
He didn't get hurt.
He didn't even have a scratch on him.
He didn't even bleed a drop.
Who? When? Where?
What? How? Why?
Please walk me through it.
On my way here, a stalker followed me.
What? A stalker? Again?
Who was it?
What kind of jerk was it this time?
What poor bastard would stalk you?
Is he okay?
Keep going. What happened?
The stalker followed me
and was about to attack me,
when a man suddenly appeared
like Superman and saved me.
He caught the stalker and punched him.
He punched the stalker twice.
He punched and pushed him.
They were fighting.
Then a big pot fell.
He didn't get hurt.
He didn't?
Yeah, he didn't get hurt.
He didn't get hurt at all.
Supermen don't get hurt
because of small fights.
Drink.
He didn't even have a scratch.
He didn't?
My hard work
is finally starting to pay off.
I guess my prayers in the mountain
are starting to work now.
The light of romance
started to shine on me.
This is the man.
He's the man of my destiny.
WANGSIMNI AUTHENTIC BEEF TRIPE
The man I'm destined
to be with is finally here!
Did you climb up the mountain
a thousand times?
Not yet. Six more to go.
Then he's not your destiny.
You said he'd be there
on the thousandth day.
Maybe they just sent him ahead of time.
-Like a trailer.
-Are you checking samples?
I think you just like him.
Did you fall for Superman?
What would you do if you
and the mountain god have different ideas?
Then what happens?
Let's say they send him to you
on the thousandth day…
My destiny?
No. This can't be happening!
…but he's just not your type.
Then what happens?
Do you have to negotiate
with the mountain god
to get you another guy?
But it's a god.
I'm sure it knows what my ideal type is.
Did you picture your ideal type
when you were hiking?
-No.
-Not even once?
-No.
-Not even a little?
This is bad. It's going to be random.
What do I do now?
For the remaining six times,
picture your ideal type in your head.
Be precise. Clearly tell the god
what your ideal man is like.
Right.
I'll do that.
I'll picture him clearly.
I even know his name.
The police station that got
the first report checked on it.
They couldn't see the umbrella
with the flower print in the picture.
I told them to check again,
but as you can see…
It's impossible to not get off the bus
once you're on it. We missed her.
Let's split up and check.
Detectives Ko and Lee.
From Inwangsan Mountain
to Sungeun Hospital.
-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir.
Detective Myung and I will check
from Sungeun Hospital.
Yes, sir.
I don't think she's here.
-She's not here either.
-She isn't here either.
She got off without her umbrella.
What?
But it was snowing the whole time.
She got off without her umbrella.
My goodness.
I love you.
Goodness.
You always kiss people
when you get drunk! Stop!
Hey, did you get
Ddaeng-chil's anal sac treated today?
Don't come near me.
Don't come near me.
Keep that finger away from me!
No!
Cheon Sang-hyuk!
You humiliated me.
You jerk.
Why did you get it treated?
He's already heartbroken over Mi-ja.
She swore at the poor guy.
It will burst
if it's not treated every so often.
-Would you do it instead?
-No.
You don't even have a scratch on you.
There is a scratch.
Thank you so much!
My goodness. It's him!
He must be the one!
He's the one I'm destined to be with!
Six more times to go.
I'm sorry.
Please forgive me.
I'm sorry.
Please forgive me.
I'll tell you my ideal type
because D-day is coming up.
His name is Cheon Sang-hyuk.
Cheon Sang-hyuk!
This is how he looks.
He looks like a fairy.
I should bring a photo of him.
So that there's no confusion.
His photo.
My goodness.
Gosh, how could the place
burn down like this?
-I know.
-Goodness.
She couldn't have made it.
Excuse me. What happened?
Oh, there was a fire last night.
-The owner of this place died.
-What?
How did that happen?
She fell asleep while cooking
Korean pancakes on the stove.
Don't you think it's strange?
She's been selling pancakes for 30 years.
How could she make such a mistake?
-Her children are--
-Oh, no.
I know.
Didn't she say she was going to
install a security camera?
Right. But I don't see it.
She suffocated due to the fire.
OVERDOSE OF SLEEPING PILLS
DETECTED
She either passed out from an overdose.
Or someone drugged her.
DETECTIVE KO
-Detective Ko.
-Sir.
I looked up the number of the
installation technician
who was assigned that day.
It's a burner phone.
-Is it?
-Yes.
He must've contacted someone.
I'll trace his calls.
All right. Keep it up.
I got the sales status of the umbrellas
with the flower patterns.
There are 15 purchases from that area.
Any accidents reported from that area?
None so far.
Let's go and find the flower pattern lady.
-You have this umbrella, right?
-Yes, I do.
You were at Inwangsan Mountain
on December 21st, right?
No.
PEOPLE WHO PURCHASED
A FLOWER-PATTERNED UMBRELLA
SEOUL JONGSEO POLICE STATION
You've done a good job.
-How about a cigarette?
-All right.
By the way, did they find
the other person?
They said it's hard to find him
because there aren't many clues.
Let's wait. They're making progress.
I don't have a photo of him.
Come in.
This is the reservation list for today.
Why don't we have photos of the guardians?
What? Why would we need those?
Well, it's to…
precisely match the pet
with their guardian.
A lot of people will complain
about taking photos.
They won't want to disclose
their personal information.
-Is that so?
-Yes.
I'm going to call Alex's guardian later.
It looks like
he's really going to adopt her.
It's tough for people
when their dogs are sick.
Of course. They have to come
to the hospital a lot too.
You go to the hospital when you're sick.
Hello.
-Hello. It's Oh Baek-ryeon.
-Oh Baek-nyeon?
It's Oh Baek-ryeon.
Gugi-dong Animal Hospital.
Oh, it's you. Dr. Oh Baek-ryeon.
How can I help you?
Well,
how's Ddaeng-chil doing
after his anal sac was treated?
His anal sac?
Is this the best you got?
I think he'll bite me if I check it now.
It's a sensitive area.
It might get infected.
Yes, it's sensitive.
Did you call just to check on that?
It's just that I checked
Ddaeng-chil's medical records.
There's one thing I'm worried about.
He's overweight.
Ddaeng-chil is overweight. He's obese.
Obese?
He likes to eat meat.
He should cut down on meat.
It's all your fault
that the dog is gaining weight.
-Why is that my fault?
-He only eats because you give him food.
-I only give it to him because he asks.
-A dog can't speak.
My dog can talk.
No way.
That's funnier than when
people insist their dogs don't bite.
No, my dog bites.
-He bites me if I don't give him food.
-Speaking of which, could you drop by?
-Drop by the hospital?
-Yes.
He should get a medical checkup.
Obesity is the root of all disease
for people and dogs.
I need to check on him now and then.
Drop by the hospital
when you have the time.
Oh, this was it.
-You want him to get a physical exam.
-What?
I visited only once.
You called me the next morning
to get him a medical checkup.
No, you don't understand.
I'll think about it. I'm hanging up now.
He has to have breakfast.
Mr. Superman.
That's not why I called. Hello?
Hey, come eat!
Come eat!
He thinks I'm a vet
who makes early morning sales calls.
My goodness!
He's going to gossip about me
over breakfast.
My goodness. What do I do?
Are you teasing him or what?
Yesterday, you got his anal sac treated
and today you're feeding it to him?
What are you imagining? It's just food.
But this looks just like that.
We are fairies, remember?
-We don't eat things like this.
-Hey.
You look like someone
who'd love things like this.
Beef tripe for breakfast?
What's gotten into you?
What's that on your forehead?
Did you fight with somebody?
It's nothing. I just fell.
What?
This tastes so good.
This is seriously good.
-It's really delicious!
-It is, right?
They sold it at that restaurant.
Ddaeng-chil,
we're going to the hospital after this.
-Again? Why?
-They said you're obese.
Me?
Hello. This is Seo Jae-hee
of Homicide Unit One.
Hello. I'm calling from
Gugi-dong Animal Hospital.
Am I speaking to Alexandra's guardian?
What? Who?
Right. I'm Alexandra's guardian.
-Yes.
-Alexandra?
-He was so happy to hear from us.
-She met a good guardian, right?
It'll be hard to take care of her though.
Didn't you go to school today?
It's a day off.
-Foundation day?
-No.
There are just days I skip school.
It happens for everyone.
By the way, it looks like
that dog gained some weight.
I'm taking him to the hospital now.
Have a good day.
"Before I called his name,
he was only a gesture.
When I called his name,
he came to me and became a flower."
GUGI-DONG ANIMAL HOSPITAL
-I think I've seen you somewhere before.
-I've never seen you before.
No. You're familiar.
People often say that I look like
that elf in The Lord of the Rings.
I don't think so. That's not you.
Which one are you?
Theft, assault, scam or blackmail?
I'm in charge of murder cases.
Murder cases?
I guess you're an expert.
Even in this lifetime.
What did you say?
Mr. Seo. You can come in.
Okay.
See you later.
I'm sure I'll remember
when I see you again.
Wait.
What's your number?
Let me see your wait number.
I didn't get one.
-What?
-Who does he think he is?
We all have numbers.
WAIT NUMBER 17
It's required here.
So go over there,
take a number and wait in line.
I made an appointment.
An appointment?
You can make appointments here?
If we can do that,
why are we waiting around like idiots?
This is how it works.
You see the vet in the order you arrive.
If your dog is admitted
for a major operation,
then we take appointments.
My dog is recovering from a major surgery.
How's my Alexandra doing today?
-Let's go in.
-Let's go.
A major surgery?
What are you looking at?
Come in.
-Here.
-Okay.
-Thank you.
-You're here.
Yes.
I told you that I'd drop by every day.
Look at them.
-What's going on?
-What's with them?
-What's going on?
-What is it?
-What's happening?
-Are they having a fling?
Goodness, look at him.
Don't tell me they're dating.
Now's the honeymoon stage.
Hey, these dogs are telling me
that those two are going to go out soon.
-Based on what?
-These guys are professionals.
It's not the first time
they've seen their owners dating.
These guys have witnessed so much.
And they can tell that those two
are going to become a couple soon.
I'll be back tomorrow.
Don't push yourself too hard.
Come back when you can.
Okay.
What?
You're here.
Ddaeng-chil can come in.
-Let's go. Come on. Let's go.
-I'm not going.
-I said I'm not going. No!
-Come on.
What makes you think that he's obese?
Well,
the average weight for Labrador Retrievers
is 27 to 36 kilograms.
But Ddaeng-chil is 38 kilograms.
He has to start losing weight.
You need to walk him more.
Cut down on meat.
Control his weight now
if you want to live
a long and happy life with him.
Wait. That scratch.
It's from yesterday, right?
-Let me see.
-No, I'm fine.
Hold on.
Can you come closer?
-I--
-Come here.
I'm glad, though.
You don't need to go to the hospital.
By the way…
do you want to have dinner with me?
I'm finally going to have dinner
with my crush.
How do I make him mine?
You are going to have dinner
with your crush.
How do you make him yours?
Just remember these three things.
LOVE ROOM
Hello.
-May I know the name for your reservation?
-It's Oh Baek-ryeon.
It's Room One.
HISTORY OF THE LOVE ROOM
This way.
This is the room.
MATCHED IN THE LOVE ROOM
It's very nice.
How do you know about this place?
I come here to eat a lot.
First, you pay for the meal today.
Men like girls who pay for the meals.
LOVE ROOM MENU
Why is it so expensive?
Welcome.
Thank you.
Well--
You can order whatever you want.
Order as usual.
-Don't worry about the prices.
-All right, then.
I'll have grilled abalones
and shrimp tartar.
And steamed jumbo shrimp with five-colored
garnish, fried scallops, and japchae.
Don't be too intimidated by the price.
-It's just one meal.
-Lemon juice on top.
She's right. It's just one meal.
I can have ramyeon for the entire month
after having this.
Okay, we'll prepare it for you.
Okay. Thank you.
Oh?
The scratch on your forehead
got all better.
That's because I put on ointment
for you earlier, right?
Wow.
My hand is a healing hand
for you, Mr. Superman.
How can it disappear so quickly
just because of the ointment?
I think we're really meant to be.
Is it your first time here, Baek-ryeon?
-This is a very popular place.
-It is?
Popular for what?
It's where lonely people like you
come for blind dates.
And they leave as couples.
I guess it's a famous place
for blind dates.
Does that mean
that we will leave as a couple today?
We aren't here for a blind date.
Geez, you are pushing me away again.
I saw a lot of wedding photos on the wall.
I guess they got married
after having a blind date here.
Now you know. You should make a wish.
Who knows if Cupid will shoot you
with his arrow?
How much is all this?
I ordered what I usually eat. Is it okay?
Two. Show him that you are listening.
Put on a big smile.
These all look delicious.
He'll imagine what it would be like to be
with you as he sees how positive you are.
Oh, my. This tastes
like heaven.
Goodness.
The food here is so good.
Is it that good?
-Baek-ryeon.
-Yes.
Is there anyone you like among the men
who come to your hospital?
Someone I like?
How about the rich-looking man
who always brings you flowers?
You mean Andre's guardian?
He's not my type.
How about that muscular man
who wears a tank top during winter?
-You mean Bbu-ggu's guardian?
-How about him?
Women like men with muscles.
Men with lean muscles are better.
How about that man
who graduated from that elite college?
You two would have lots to talk about.
We don't. All he did was study.
-How about that tall man?
-Bbo-bbo's guardian?
He's too tall.
He's just too tall.
How about that guy who isn't that tall,
but he has big eyes and facial features?
You mean Pete's guardian.
I don't like men with big eyes,
a high nose, and thick lips.
Baek-ryeon.
There's a reason
you've been single for so long.
Are you sure you want to date someone
from this world?
Your standards are too high!
I can't set it up for you.
Set up what for me?
Well--
You did say that this is
a famous blind date spot.
Do they give a free blind-date coupon
if we eat here?
-No.
-Set up what for me then?
I'm just asking.
So, you don't like any of the men
who come to the hospital?
Three. Show your heart.
That's how you move on to the next step.
I don't form bonds with people.
Especially with women.
Why do you refuse
to form bonds with people?
Don't you want to be in love?
-I don't.
-Why not?
Are you scared that you will get hurt?
Would you still refuse love even if
the right woman comes to you like fate?
-I would refuse.
-Are you sure?
I will never do it.
I doubt it.
Don't say "never."
You don't know what will happen.
If you meet someone you love so much,
she might change your thoughts.
You'll jump into a fiery pit,
forgetting whatever happened earlier.
That's what humans do.
How would you know that?
You said you've never been in love.
I've seen it in TV shows.
There are a lot of people like that
in those shows.
They swear they won't fall in love again.
But they forget about everything
and fall madly in love again.
They give up their lives for their love.
TV shows ruin so many people.
You have no idea.
It gives you a vicarious thrill.
No wonder you're so picky.
There's a reason behind this.
You can just go.
The bill is paid.
All paid?
When? Who?
-He paid in advance.
-What?
Goodbye.
Why did you pay?
I was supposed to treat you.
I saw you trembling
when you were drinking water.
That's because--
I was really thirsty.
I was so happy to see the water.
You think I can't pay for this?
I have a lot of money.
Give me your account number.
I'll transfer you the money.
No, it's all right.
I don't have such a thing.
You don't have such a thing?
Do you have bad credit?
Even if you do,
you should still have a bank account.
You eat here all the time. I can't believe
you don't have a bank account.
You don't want to tell me
your account number.
-What?
-Why don't you want to tell me?
You think I'll ask you out again
because you got the meal?
You don't want a second date with me,
so you paid for the bill.
You're very thorough, aren't you?
You refuse to give me an opening.
-That's not what I meant.
-Whatever.
Why don't we split today's bill?
I feel very uncomfortable
when you treat me to dinner like this.
I'll pay you half via an app.
I don't need your account number.
Bye, then.
What?
But there's one important thing
you need to keep in mind.
First, you pay. Second, you show
that you listen and smile.
Third, show him how you feel.
These three things only work
when the man is interested in you.
If he's not interested in you,
then it won't work at all.
Come to think of it,
he kept asking if I liked any other guys
while we were eating.
He was pushing me away.
He wanted me to look for other guys
instead of liking him.
A way to end your crush?
There is no way.
Why did she get mad at me
when I treated her to an expensive meal?
I'm not going to shoot an arrow for her.
I don't care if you're lonely
or you don't have the red thread of fate.
I won't shoot for you! Ever!
Geez. Damn it!
You have to just let it run its course.
-Damn it!
-Geez!
When you just let it run its course,
there will come a moment when you realize
that you're doing something stupid.
There will be a moment
when you come to your senses.
But until then, no matter how hard
people try to stop you
or try to talk sense into you,
you won't listen. You can't.
You just do it again
even when people tell you not to.
You do it again like an idiot.
It drives you crazy.
You can't stop.
You have to just let it run its course.
What? You're never going to love?
What if I ask the gods
to make you my destiny?
I prayed a thousand times
on top of a cliff
to make my wish come true!
I'm sorry. Please forgive me.
It was my fault. Please forgive me.
Four more times.
Right! His photo.
When can I take his photo?
I have to show the photo soon
to prevent confusion.
A woman?
He went out to have a meal with a woman?
Who was she?
-A vet at the animal hospital.
-What?
Doctor Hwa-ja?
-Of course not.
-But you go to that hospital.
-We switched to another one.
-Where?
Gugi-dong Animal Hospital. It's
right across from Poppy Animal Clinic.
I'm not even obese, but he took me
to the hospital early in the morning.
-Because of the vet?
-Yes. Her name is Oh Baek-ryeon.
That female vet…
she applied ointment
on Sang-hyuk's forehead.
What? Ointment?
Like this.
Like this?
-Something is going on.
-Definitely.
What is it?
What could it be?
I don't know anything.
There was one thing that puzzled me
the most about humans.
-It was inequality.
-Young Master.
How do you make the story sound so fun?
-Is there anything you're bad at?
-I'm just naturally gifted.
It's my turn now.
Do you know what it's called
when a king is in the palace?
"I don't want to go," right?
I can't wait to hear it.
It's called "grumbling."
-Gosh.
-I'm tearing up.
It's my turn now.
Do you know what you say
when a chili smiles?
Gosh, what's with him?
Why chili, though?
It's just a green chili.
Should I have the soldiers take him away?
Here, have a drink.
All right. Let's have a drink.
Bottoms up.
Doesn't it taste nice?
It's nice. You are nice too.
I thought I made a joke too.
I didn't understand why the ladies laughed
only at Dong-chil and Dong-pal's jokes,
while they never bothered
to even smile at me.
You're pretty even when you're eating.
I really did not get it.
It's because you're pretty.
You can't tell the difference?
I can't.
You don't look like them.
You look very different from them.
-Is that the difference?
-Yes, that's it.
Why do women laugh so hard
at their lame jokes?
It's because they're good-looking.
-Is that it?
-That is all.
I was truly shocked.
I couldn't believe looks were
all that mattered to women here.
Hey.
-What are you looking at?
-Sorry?
What are you looking at?
-Why do you keep looking at me?
-I looked at you?
I wasn't looking at you.
You were looking at me.
You've been staring at me.
-I'm telling the truth.
-Don't look at me.
You are getting on my nerves.
Sometimes, I get mad too.
-Excuse me.
-You scared me.
Why are you following me?
You were offended
that I was looking at you?
Yes, I was offended.
I don't feel good at all.
You don't feel good?
You messed with the wrong person.
You're going to regret what you just said.
You're going to fall in love with me!
Are you giving me
the middle finger right now?
What a jerk.
I don't get it.
I really don't get it.
I'm sorry.
I couldn't find anything…
that could be a clue.
My daughter came back after 29 years.
But we can't even figure out
who killed her.
Jeong-ah…
I deeply regret it.
I regret that I have to leave
without catching the culprit.
Cheon Sang-hyuk.
Cheon Sang-hyuk of Gugi-dong.
How can I describe the way he looks?
He looks like…
He looks just like that, like a fairy.
What?
What's going on?
Mr. Superman!
Superman? Who? Where?
Is he wearing the suit?
What brings you here, Mr. Superman?
What brings you here?
I come here a lot. This is my 997th time.
What? How many times?
I was just thinking about you.
Right, I need your photo.
Before I forget.
-What?
-Smile.
I told you to smile. Smile.
Okay.
This one looks better. I got it.
What are you doing?
Can't you see? I'm taking a photo.
So, why are you taking a photo of me?
Well…
-I need it for something.
-You need it for something?
-For what?
-Don't worry.
-It's for something nice.
-I'm not fine with that.
-Delete the photo.
-Goodness.
-I said it's for something nice.
-I'm not okay with it. Delete the photo.
Don't worry.
I'm not posting it on some porn site.
Porn site?
You are unbelievable. Give it to me.
Delete the photo now.
Delete it now.
I'm taking your phone for real.
I mean it.
Just give it to me.
I said give it to me.
Goodness.
You should have just given it to me
when I asked for it.
Excuse me.
Mr. Superman.
Do you want to go for some makgeolli?
The people on this list are the only ones
who had flower-patterned umbrellas.
Why isn't she here?
Why isn't
the flower-patterned lady coming?
Please hurry up and come.
I used to go there a lot,
but as you can see.
Was there a fire?
Yes.
I heard the owner of that place
died.
You mean the lady from that night?
She was a good woman.
You couldn't sleep again last night?
Was it the same dream?
Yes, the same one.
Why don't you get treated?
How about a brain wave test?
I don't think it will help.
I see things covered in blood every day.
It will get better if I quit being a cop.
-Let's go.
-Okay.
When did it start?
I don't really remember.
It started when I was really young.
Then it has nothing to do with your job.
Right.
It's getting clearer lately.
I can almost make out the faces.
What faces?
Based on how they're dressed…
it's the Joseon Dynasty.
Maybe you're seeing your past life
or something.
-My past life?
-Yes.
You don't believe in that?
I do.
You were probably my enemy
in my past life.
That can't be true.
If we were enemies in our past lives,
we would probably be a couple.
Don't even start.
-I hate even the thought of it.
-I hate it too.
-Just go back to eating.
-Okay.
Past life?
I don't know what I did so wrong
in my past life.
They said I'm not meant to be with anyone.
They said that because of what I did,
I'm not meant to be with anyone.
I guess that's why everyone
who tried to get close to me…
They all got hurt.
But I was told that
if I go up this mountain
and hike up to the top of a cliff,
and apologize for what I did
and beg for forgiveness,
then all will be well.
So that's what I've been doing.
You just need to
beg for forgiveness?
Yes.
They said he will come to me…
if I ask for forgiveness a thousand times.
-The one I'm destined to be with.
-The one you're destined to be with?
The man of my destiny.
In order to meet him,
I went up the mountain again and again.
Whether it was raining, snowing, or windy.
As of today…
I've gone up there 997 times.
Why are you so desperate
to be in love?
Why don't you want to be?
It's not that I don't want to.
I just shouldn't.
I don't deserve it.
Who gives you the right?
There are people
who are like that.
-Are you a mama's boy?
-What?
You only date girls
that your mom approves of?
That's not it.
Nobody has the right to approve of anyone.
I make my own destiny.
At one point in time
I used to believe that too.
I was arrogant.
Then what happened?
Then,
I got a cold warning.
They told me not to see her.
So,
did you just give up?
I ignored the warning…
and got hurt badly.
Hello.
I'm at the public parking lot
near Inwangsan Mountain.
You will see me when you get here.
Yes.
Okay.
Sir! There's one more person who bought
that flower-patterned umbrella.
LIMITED EDITION
FLOWER-PATTERNED UMBRELLA
Did you wait a long time?
-No, it's fine.
-Hello.
-Here's the key.
-Thank you.
You can get in the car.
You're that guy
from that night, aren't you?
You're that stalker
from Gugi-dong Food Alley.
I saw this scar on your hand that night.
