My Man Is Cupid (2023) s01e09 Episode Script

1
Don't move.
Why did I see that?
Why
did I see this place?
Why is my heart beating so fast?
You.
Who are you?
Who's the man in the photo?
I told you last time.
He's my father.
This is the report
from the Digital Analysis Division at NFS.
Based on their eyes,
corners of their mouths,
ear lobes, forehead shapes
and the eyebrow shapes,
they're the same person.
The man in the photo is you.
Step away from the rifle.
I said step away from the rifle!
What do you want me to say?
Don't tell me you think I'm a ghost,
a monster or an alien.
Do you think I'm all that?
You're smiling?
How can you smile
after seeing this report?
If I were you, I would have first checked
who sent this photo.
-What?
-Have you checked who sent this?
This happened in the past too.
The police doubted each other
and pointed fingers at each other.
-They fought among themselves.
-That is none of your concern.
You.
Where did you get the rifle?
You have a sniper rifle
in the middle of the city.
Come and look if you're curious.
See what kind of rifle it is.
YOO JEONG-HO
Who are you?
Well…
Your house is so pretty.
The wall is very pretty.
Thank you.
Are you from around here?
No.
I was just passing by.
Thank you.
Goodbye.
What is this?
Goodness.
My gosh! That scared me.
You punk! Are you a pervert?
A pervert? What are you talking about?
Look at them. Those two.
That.
You're watching that kind of stuff
through a rifle on a rooftop?
No, that's not what I was doing.
What's wrong with you? What a pervert!
I think there's been
a huge misunderstanding.
This isn't that kind of rifle.
I'm not a pervert!
You are a pervert.
Goodness!
EP 9. THINGS THAT DO NOT CHANGE
EVEN IF YOU ARE REINCARNATED
Sir. I checked it.
The person at this address
said they never sent this.
And the courier number
on the entry log doesn't exist.
-It doesn't exist?
-No.
Detective Seo. You have a delivery.
BULLET DELIVERY SERVICE
Sir.
And
you have a guest.
If she's alive,
you should know where she is.
If she's dead, you should have found
her dead body by now.
I am sorry.
We're doing our best to find her.
My wife cheated on me with Kim Myeong-sik.
Everything about him is very suspicious.
Why haven't you been able to arrest him?
There are definitely several things
about him that make him look suspicious,
but it's only circumstantial evidence.
But you found blood in his car.
Those bloodstains
cannot serve as direct evidence
that he killed her.
So you're saying…
that you need to find her body.
If she is dead…
yes.
The world is so unfair.
It already breaks my heart
to know that my missing wife
has been cheating on me for years,
but you can't charge the man
who has been cheating with my wife
when there are so many
suspicious things about him.
I don't know if this is more unfair
for my dead wife
or me for having trusted my wife
and tried my best for my family
for decades.
It's very unfair
that the person left behind has to be
the one to experience this heartbreak.
I'm sorry.
The media mentioned a witness.
Would it be possible for me to meet her?
The witness?
I'm sorry, but you can't.
We can't pressure the witness.
The culprit targets people around him.
He targets women he has been watching
who meet the criteria
for the "Seven Sins for Women".

Good work.
AIN DRUG STORE
This is for six days.
Have it 30 minutes after every meal.
-Morning, afternoon and night.
-Okay.
-Sir.
-Ms. Song.
Are you sick?
I feel like I'm coming down with a cold.
You are?
You have to treat it at an early stage.
Take your medicine.
-See you tomorrow.
-See you.
Get home safely, sir.
Hey, can't you just walk next to me?
Captain Seo told me to watch you
from a distance.
Wouldn't it be safer
for you to watch me right next to me?
You are right.
-By the way…
-Yes.
…is Sang-hyuk still coming
to the police station these days?
Yes. He's working on some stuff
with Detective Seo, as a team.
Does he seem a little different to you?
-Different?
-Yes.
For instance…
does he seem restless?
There is one thing
that's different about him.
What is it?
He seemed a bit irritated.
He-- He seemed irritated? Why?
-Someone must have upset him.
-Who?
What? Me? What did I do?
Gosh, you scared me.
Why are you getting mad at me?
I was just thinking.
Geez.
Wait.
Geez.
What did I do?
I'll be with you again tomorrow.
Thank you. Bye.
Bye.
Then trust me.
I trust you.
From now on,
I'm going to fight against my destiny.
My dear friend.
You are in love.
I can already see
under your vest
that your heart's on fire.
Have you ever seen it?
Have you seen what happens
if you resist the last metamorphosis?
You'll lose your last chance.
-Have you checked?
-You scared me!
-Did you find out what you did that night?
-What did I do?
You're flustered.
You didn't just give him a peck.
You actually kissed him.
How did you know? Did you see me?
Which one is it?
Is it the detective or Superman?
So it's Superman.
You pretended like you knew nothing,
but you kissed the guy
while you were drunk.
I know what you did with him
I know what you did with him
I know what you did
So, how was it?
That edgy first kiss of yours.
Edgy?
I can't even remember it.
I can't remember the entire thing.
This is not how I wanted
my first kiss to happen.
What kind of first kiss did you want?
I told you to go slow.
Geez!
Goodness.
You are a naughty girl.
You stare at each other,
wanting each other.
It doesn't matter who goes first.
You step closer to each other
to see how you feel about one another.
A romantic kiss
where you would hear bells ring.
But I forced myself on him.
I forced him.
I kissed him by force!
Goodness, Do-ra.
He keeps avoiding me.
Maybe he was offended.
You forced yourself on him, so I guess
he didn't hear any bells ringing.
I guess he felt violated.
Do-ra.
How was your first kiss?
Me? Didn't I tell you?
It happened so fast.
A guy I had absolutely no feelings for
suddenly kissed me and ran away.
Goodness, I wonder where
and what that jerk is doing now.
He ran away after stealing my first kiss.
I'll break his legs if I see him again.
That was my first kiss.
APPEAL
When you spent 3,500,000 won
for an intensive three-month course,
I'm sure you wanted to learn
some amazing skills.
Am I right?
How do you get a girl's phone number?
How do you date a girl?
How do you
have physical intimacy with a girl?
But I have no intention
of teaching you any skills.
Wh-- What do you mean?
Then how are guys like us supposed to
date a girl when we know nothing?
You can learn the skills
and probably take a girl out on a date.
If you're lucky,
you might end up as a couple.
But there's no guarantee of next time.
It's different when you share
your true feelings with someone.
My lecture isn't about those skills.
It's about finding
your own personal appeal.
What makes me attractive?
How will I discover and showcase
my personal appeal?
Once you become appealing,
girls will naturally come after you.
It shouldn't be about someone else.
It should be about you.
You get into a relationship
so that you become happy.
All right.
Stand up.
Let's get changed first.
Aren't you going to get up?
Why do I have to get changed?
This is a designer brand.
I thought it was fake.
I thought it was fake too.
Fake?
The whole suit cost me 6,270,000 won!
It's a designer brand
that costs 6,270,000 won.
But the problem is that
your styling makes it look fake.
Do you know why?
-Why?
-It doesn't suit you.
Let's go out to find what suits you.
I don't like women who approach me just
because I'm wearing expensive clothes.
That means
they like the expensive clothes, not me.
Basically, they like men who are rich.
Okay.
Your appearance, the school you went to,
your family, your salary.
How would a girl like you
without asking you all that?
Why would a girl like you?
Your appearance shows that
you take good care of yourself.
It's evidence of your diligence.
Your school?
It show that you studied hard and went to
a good college when others partied.
So it means you're hardworking.
Your family?
I'll pass
since I'm not covering it in my lecture.
Your salary.
It proves that you got good results
from competing against others.
It shows that you try hard all the time.
If you don't fall under any of these,
how would a girl like you?
Is it your personality?
Are you sure yours is good?
An emotionally guarded man
isn't attractive.
Clothes are the most basic means
of respecting yourself.
When you wear something that suits you,
you feel good, to start with.
So let's go out
to find something nice to wear.
Let's go out!
I don't think this suits you.
-It doesn't?
-You should try another one.
You should never wear this.
Dong-gu.
What if we leave this one open?
Yes, it's much better.
You look great.
Goodness, it looks nice on you.
So you tucked in the shirt.
Nice.
You look good. Come here.
The sleeves are too long.
Let's fold them a little.
This side too.
Let's put them on.
You're set.
You look great.
Hold on.
Let's tuck the collar in.
It's my first time
feeling a human woman's touch.
Goodness.
Thumbs up.
It's my first time
having a human woman smile at me.
How is it?
It looks cleaner and more refined.
You're getting to know more
about yourself.
You're discovering new things
about yourself.
I told you, it's nice.
I'm glad you like it.
Yes, I love it.
-Excuse me--
-Ah-ram!
That surprised me.
What's wrong with him?
Oh, my gosh.
I kissed a girl.
Then promise me you won't ever lie again.
Of course.
Is that a kiss?
Is that what you call a kiss?
MYEONGIN HOSPITAL
Hold on.
Oh, it's here.
Mr. Kim Myeong-sik got physical therapy
from March 2019 to July 2021.
The nurse in charge was Ms. Go Eun-seo.
Kim Myeong-sik seduced Go Eun-seo.
Then, he condemned her for adultery.
None of the people
related to the five victims overlap.
There has to be one though.
-Enjoy your meal.
-Thank you.
Let's eat first.
LEE HO-JIN
Yes?
What about Ms. Oh? Did she eat?
What did she have?
She had something horrible.
Tell her to have something delicious
from now on.
All right. Take good care of her.
Make sure she gets home safe after work.
Okay.
Why do you like Baek-ryeon?
-She's pretty.
-That's all?
Well, isn't there…
-You should think some more.
-Do I need to?
The only reason you like her
is because she's pretty?
When a woman asks you,
"Why do you like me?"
If a man answers,
"You are a good and diligent individual
who is respectful to your elders,
you have a house, a car and a pension,"
the girl will break up with him
right away.
Why?
He hasn't said the most important thing.
He didn't say it's because she's pretty.
It's simple.
"You are pretty." That's all it takes.
"You're the most beautiful woman to me."
You tell her, "You are prettier
than Yuna Kim, Jennie or aespa."
Even though she knows she's not,
she'll be very happy.
I started liking her
because she was pretty.
But…
I realized that she was cool as well.
Witnesses of murder cases
don't really cooperate
because they're scared.
It's especially true
for this missing person case
because the witnesses died
in suspicious accidents.
She must have been
more scared than anyone,
but she did her best until the end.
I found it very brave.
She's pretty and cool.
How can you not fall for her?
So,
what can you do for her?
I'll protect her. It's what I'm good at.
And you?
Do you like her?
That's the difference between you and me.
I'm not a coward who hides his feelings.
She's gotten much better.
I'm glad.
Don't forget to use the eyedrops.
What should I do?
I made a big mistake, right?
He didn't call you after that?
-He didn't come to see you? Not even once?
-No.
Snacks. What did you eat
with the drinks that night?
-Snacks?
-Come on. Think.
What did you eat
with your drinks that night?
One moon snail salad, please!
-Moon snail.
-Okay!
-One bossam, please!
-Okay.
It's spicy.
One dried squid, please.
Okay.
Can it all fit into your mouth?
-Squid.
-Goodness.
Dried squid and grilled squid.
You are good.
Look, it's shrinking.
Don't I look like a grilled squid?
So that's what it was.
Dr. Oh, just give up.
What do I do?
Why do people kiss?
Did you see?
-See? See what?
-What?
-I mean--
-I saw something just now.
-Was that a kiss?
-What did he see?
It looked disgusting.
Why would you do that?
A light peck on lips.
That's more pure and romantic.
That way, you can see
how you feel about one another.
You do that then.
-Did you see?
-See what?
-Don't tell me.
-No way.
Did you?
No.
Why would people
want to use their tongues?
It's disgusting.
What if she had cheonggukjang?
What if she chewed on a squid?
Then just don't kiss her.
Why would you get upset over that?
I'll kiss someone someday.
-Someday?
-You?
Just you wait and see.
In three months, I'll be in love too.
-Who cares if you do?
-Or if you don't.
When a man and a woman fall in love,
do they really need to kiss?
They can't help but want to kiss?
If you don't like that,
you can just be platonic.
Be platonic?
You don't want to be erotic.
You would want to touch, hug and kiss her.
Then you would want each other's bodies.
Want each other's bodies?
-Do people do that when they're in love?
-It all starts with a kiss.
It starts with a kiss?
How?
You should try. Then you will know.
Hey, why is your face so red?
Is it?
Gosh, hey.
This gochujang jjigae is so spicy.
You're right. I guess I made it
a bit spicy today. I'm sorry.
Hey, drink some water.
Okay.
GUGI-DONG ANIMAL HOSPITAL
Why is he here?
I'm Eun-seo's husband.
To be honest,
I saw you at the police station.
The police said no when I asked
if I could meet you. So I'm here.
I'm sorry I had to come like this.
It's all right. You can talk.
I heard
that you were with my wife that night.
What did my wife say?
What do you think love is, Eun-seo?
Fate.
Something that always finds you.
I didn't do anything wrong.
It's not a sin.
INWANGSAN MOUNTAIN
MISSING WOMAN
MISSING WOMAN
WAS HAVING AN AFFAIR
I met my wife 29 years ago.
I was injured badly and she treated me.
She was an angel who became a nurse…
just to save me.
Before her, the world felt icy cold.
She was the first woman
who taught me what it's like to be warm.
I've been living my life for her
since then.
I was working in the countryside
the night she went missing.
WIFE
That night…
when you talked with her…
was I the last person she spoke about…
or was it the man
she was having an affair with?
I understand.
I told you to walk beside me.
What's going on? Where did Lee Ho-jin go?
I sent him home.
That man is Seong Hyun-cheol.
Ms. Go Eun-seo's husband, right?
You saw him?
How long have you been watching me?
-I saw you when I was just passing by.
-You saw me while you were passing by?
Your place isn't this way.
I had something to do here.
Anyway, why was he here?
What did he say to you?
Did he pressure you? Or corner you?
Did he threaten you by any chance?
He didn't threaten me.
He just wanted to know
what his wife was like
before she went missing.
However,
I didn't say anything.
No, I couldn't.
This is why
the police wouldn't let him speak to you.
Why did he burden you with that?
They spent so much time together
but, ultimately, their love didn't last.
I feel bad for Eun-seo who's missing.
But I also feel bad for her husband
because he's been left alone.
He can't get as sad as he wants.
He can't hate her as much as he wants.
I hate you!
I'm sorry.
We should make a detour.
Baek-ryeon.
If she hates him, why is she kissing him?
I'm sorry.
What?
I didn't mean to startle you
the other night.
The other night?
Right.
I'm sorry. I drank a lot that night.
But it wasn't a mistake
just because I drank a lot.
I wouldn't just do that to any guy
because I was drunk.
Okay. Let me be honest.
I kissed you because I wasn't brave enough
to do it sober.
What I mean is…
I meant it.
It wasn't a mistake.
So…
is it okay if I don't apologize…
for what happened?
It was my first time
having physical contact with a woman.
All I used to get was a slap.
How dare you touch me!
She's the woman who reached out to me.
Until now,
every women has looked at me with…
Gosh, what the hell?
…annoyance and disdain.
-What are you looking at?
-Sorry?
All I used to get
was disgust and wry smiles.
Let's put them on. Goodness.
Thumbs up.
She gave me a genuine smile.
It's my first time.
I kept my lips pure
for the past 500 years.
My lips…
What did she do to your lips?
I don't know.
Something's going on.
Why do people kiss?
-Did you see?
-He crossed the line for sure.
But
-with who, though?
-Who do you think?
-It's that vet at the animal hospital.
-The vet?
I was talking about Dong-gu.
Dong-gu?
-What about him?
-He has a girl.
What? A girl? Dong-gu?
That's ridiculous.
I think he got a girlfriend
through that weird dating academy.
He said she reached out to him.
He said she smiled at him.
And his lips…
What about his lips?
I didn't hear the rest of the story.
Who cares what he does with his lips?
He's not the problem right now.
It's Sang-hyuk.
I think he's seriously crossing the line.
It isn't Sang-hyuk.
Dong-gu is in a more serious condition.
If he's in love right now,
it's his first love.
It's his first love in 500 years.
Don't you remember?
You know how our first love ended.
I've never heard of such lame excuses
in my entire life!
You want to break up with me
because you're a dog now.
Break up because you're a dog?
Well, I become a dog when I get drunk too!
Come out, you coward!
Remember how they held such mean grudges?
I hope he doesn't burn anything too.
Come on. He'll never do that.
He's such a coward.
He didn't want to touch
the arrow back then.
But he forced himself
to touch the corner of it.
Then he got stuck with us by accident.
Yes, you're right.
Sang-hyuk crossed the line.
If my gut is right…
But don't you think it's strange?
What is?
He said it would be a tragedy
once he opened up his heart.
He definitely opened up to her.
So, why is he safe?
RELIABLE POLICE - SAFE COUNTRY
-What is this?
-Which one?
Hey, don't overreact.
So, what can you do for her?
I'll protect her. It's what I'm good at.
Hey, you two.
Was she talking to us?
I don't think I know her.
Hey, you two.
She wants you to follow her.
Are you two scared?
Good. I dressed up to scare you.
How is it?
If anyone touches me, they'll die.
Don't you think?
Your…
This ring on your nose,
it has nothing to do
with attacking anyone.
But this is the whole point.
Having it makes a huge difference.
Look.
This is me with it and then without it.
-I look different.
-Well,
let's remove this.
Be honest. You're both scared, right?
I'll remove this then. Let's go.
Where?
Let's go.
We have somewhere to go together.
-Where?
-Wherever I tell you.
You think the missing woman from
the convenience store was killed here?
-But she lives in Gugi-dong.
-No.
It's here.
I think something happened here.
I don't know how it happened.
But she keeps showing up in my dreams.
She shows me this place in my dreams.
This is where…
the culprit attacked her.
And…
he buried her
in the mountain.
In the mountain?
I don't know which mountain it was
but I'm sure it was a mountain.
He buried her in the mountain.
Ms. Oh.
Did you watch a horror movie last night?
Was it about kidnapping
and burying someone in the mountain?
Why would that missing woman
from the convenience store
show up in your dream?
It's because I'm helping her.
I got hypnotized for her.
I try to remember things for a long time,
so she thinks I'm on her side.
That's why she's in my dreams.
She wants me to come to this place.
And the neighborhood felt different
from how it feels now.
There's one more person.
-She looked like a high school student.
-Let's go.
We can't waste our time here.
You think I'm doing this
because I have time?
I'm busy too.
-I'm busy but we need to find the culprit.
-This is the place.
This is where
the fourth missing person lived.
The people who went missing,
Ms. Song Da-hee
and Ms. Yoo Jeong-ah
used to live in this neighborhood.
What?
Who?
The fourth victims?
There are four victims? Not two?
Let me explain.
I mean…
Hey, girls.
-Yes.
-Yes?
Hey!
-What the heck?
-Where do you think you're going?
Let me go!
-Die! You pervert.
-I'm sorry.
You psycho!
-You're a jerk!
-I won't flash people again!
I have a bad habit.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I won't ever strip naked again.
So this is where they lived?
Yoo Jeong-ah and Song Da-hee,
the fourth victims, used to live here?
Yes.
This is where
Ms. Yoo Jeong-ah used to live.
Goodness, my little girl.
Have fun at school!
All right. I'll have fun at school.
Don't go anywhere else.
It's a plum tree.
It's 45 years old.
How do you know?
This used to be my place.
Who are you?
Nobody lives here.
I'm a police officer.
I'm just looking around.
Do you know this neighborhood?
I've been living here for 40 years,
I know pretty much everything.
A child went missing in that house
a long time ago.
No one lives here now.
They moved.
It's been over 20 years.
Four good-looking guys
used to live in that house.
No, it was three.
One of them wasn't good-looking.
Anyway, they looked like fairies.
-Fairies?
-Yes.
They looked like fairies.
My girl was after one of the guys.
She gave me such a hard time.
She wasn't the only one.
There were so many high school girls
who were after them.
Right! I have photos.
-You want to see them?
-Yes.
I'll bring them out.
Oh, aren't these frogs?
He's just like me.
I guess we both like frogs.
My daughter had a huge crush
on this young man.
Was he single? He wasn't married?
What are you talking about?
My daughter
wouldn't have gone after a married guy.
All three were single.
-I'm sure.
-Single?
Wait! This dog is--
This dog? This was their dog.
What was his name?
Right.
It was Ddaeng-chil.
Ddaeng-chil.
-Let's go.
-Who's the man in the photo?
I told you before.
He's my father.
I guess your father used to fold
origami frogs too. I do that too.
I do origami
when I feel upset or insecure.
I feel at peace
when I fold about 20 frogs.
Isn't it funny?
Smile.
Come on. Smile.
Could you smile?
Give me a smile.
Look at me and smile.
No, I…
I just wanted you to smile.
What's going on?
Ms. Oh.
From now on,
stay away from Cheon Sang-hyuk.
What? What do you mean?
-Why?
-Let me get you home first.
But…
I guess we both like frogs.
I guess we both like frogs.
-Why did you stop laughing?
-Why did you stop laughing?
You look pretty when you laugh.
Remember.
The moment you open up your heart
to a lady,
it will end in tragedy.
You already know the answer to that.
That thing you have.
One shot of that will do.
Why?
I'll explain later.
I'll explain everything next time.
Just trust me for now.
Let's get out of here right now.
What? It's a flowerpot.
It seems like they're not cared for
but they're still alive.
Those aren't important right now.
What are you doing?
The wall is pretty.
It's sweet and romantic.
Come on.
The breeze feels nice.
Do you want to come up too?
Come up.
Come up and cool down.
Oh Baek-ryeon.
The one that should stay by your side is…
I'll protect her. It's what I'm good at.
