EPISODE 12
This is the end of the valley,
but I don't see Ok Eul-tae.
Maybe he's already left the mountain.
This was my chance to kill him,
but I made a mistake from the start.
I shouldn't have lost him
when we fell into the water.
Let's search again.
Let's go.
This won't do.
You'll collapse before we even find him.
Sit down. Let's rest.
Come on.
Let me see the wound.
I'm okay. We're running out of time.
This is our chance to get him.
He's probably weak from the blood loss.
What will you do with him?
I'll kill him.
That means you'll die as well.
How do you know that?
Si-ho looked into my past life
and heard Kim Hwa-yeon say so.
She said in order to kill Ok Eul-tae,
you have to die as well.
So even if you do find him,
don't kill him.
Lock him up in that well.
Let's find him first.
Don't change the subject.
Promise me.
Tell me you won't die with him.
Why won't you answer?
Fine.
It's Si-ho.
Hey, Si-ho.
Hey, how did it go? Did you find Hwal?
Yes. He's with me right now.
-Then come home right now.
-We can't go right now.
I can't tell you the details.
I won't. You understand, right?
Anyway, we're both okay.
Sang-un, you do understand
what Kim Hwa-yeon said, right?
You shouldn't trust Hwal either.
You know that, right?
I do. Don't worry.
Is everything okay there?
Yes. Everything's fine.
Don't worry about us.
Okay.
What is it?
Is something wrong over there?
No, she just called to check up on us.
How did it go?
She won't tell me the details.
She just said Hwal was okay.
What a load of nonsense.
I bet he was beaten to a pulp.
Why did Sang-un go there?
Ok Eul-tae could have taken her.
She found a way to kill him.
-She did?
-What is it?
Well, it's…
Tell us already. What is it?
Both Bulgasals have to die
at the same time.
They're the swords
that can kill each other.
So in order to kill Ok Eul-tae,
Hwal needs to die as well?
Don't be ridiculous.
Elaborate. Is he right?
Please calm down.
Sang-un went there to dissuade Hwal.
So that he wouldn't die with Ok Eul-tae.
What are you talking about?
Hwal has to die?
1,000 YEARS AGO
Try getting up.
Please tell me.
I have always wanted to become like you.
I have been waiting all this time.
Even those of low birth live well.
So how could someone as noble as me
remain sickly until the day he dies?
Isn't that too unfair?
So please tell me.
What do I have to do to become like you?
What?
Gosh, what are you doing?
What? We should stay together.
Ok Eul-tae could come at any moment.
No, thank you. I'll be fine.
Where are you going?
I mean…
This isn't the only room in this house.
Don't you know that men and women
should keep some distance at night?
Wasn't that the norm back in your day?
That was ages ago.
I'm doing this for my convenience.
Or would you feel better if I stayed
outside your door like I did before?
Stop tossing around and go to sleep.
Is it because of your nightmares?
No. That's not why.
I just feel a bit uncomfortable.
Why? Because of me?
Isn't that obvious?
We've slept together before.
You better not say that to anyone else.
We didn't sleep together.
We just slept in the same room.
Sharing a room sounds weirder.
It does if you say it like that!
I'm going to sleep now.
I feel more tired after talking with you.
I smell instant noodles.
-But have you ever made that before?
-No.
Aren't these the instructions?
That's right.
I could have cooked instead, you know?
I don't want you to burn down the house.
You know what?
It's nice that someone's cooking for me.
That's a lot of water.
Thank you.
Why are you staring at me?
It's good.
Do you have something to say?
I'm bothered by what you said
back at the mountain.
Do you have feelings for me?
That was out of the blue.
What are you suddenly talking about?
You said you didn't want me to die.
You wanted Ok Eul-tae to die,
but you were scared that I'd die too.
What else did you say?
That I was more important
than your revenge.
That everything was ruined.
Is that how you interpreted it?
Well, I guess you're right then.
Why did you fall for me?
I'm not sure.
Since when?
I don't know!
Is this something
I should be interrogated about?
That's because…
there's no way you'd ever like me.
-Why not?
-I don't know.
So tell me the reason why you do.
Well…
If you want a reason…
Right.
Because you helped me.
I was going to kill you.
But you didn't.
I told you I temporarily spared
your life because of my soul.
Still, I know you hesitated
from time to time.
Because deep down, you have a good heart.
Maybe that's why I like you. Happy?
No. I still don't get it.
No one ever said
I was good-hearted either.
And I'm not.
You're the good-hearted one.
You care about those around you.
But that doesn't make me like you.
Well…
Okay.
Can we please stop talking about this?
Goodness. I'd like to eat.
I think I might get indigestion.
But did something happen to you
during the past 600 years?
I said I liked you, but you started
interrogating and suspecting me.
It's just that
no one has ever liked me before.
Even my own wife disliked me.
That's because of your temper.
You're right.
What are you doing?
I don't know why I like you,
but I know one thing for sure.
I don't want you to die.
So let's go back to our old selves.
I'll return your soul
and become Bulgasal again.
Why all of a sudden?
I know once you find Ok Eul-tae
you're planning to die with him.
But I won't allow that.
Then will you turn into Bulgasal
and die with him instead?
I'd rather do that.
Because I was Bulgasal to begin with.
So you don't need to sacrifice yourself.
I never thought of it that way.
It's something I have to do.
You, Si-ho, and Do-yun
can't live in hiding forever.
I don't want to live
if it means you have to die.
No one…
wants that.
I'll handle Ok Eul-tae on my own.
Let's go back to our old selves.
I'm sorry…
for dragging you
into this mess I have with Ok Eul-tae
and for making you suffer
for the past 600 years.
I'm truly sorry.
Live an ordinary life
with the son you had lost.
I don't know how to live
as a human anymore.
So how can I become one again?
-But--
-You took my soul as you wished,
so I'll do the same.
What will happen to Si-ho if you die?
Then if you die,
what will happen to Do-yun?
Enough of this nonsense.
Let's get some rest.
No. I'll protect you two.
I will. Who are you?
Do-yun.
Why are you up so late
when you still need to recover?
That's refreshing.
I need protein after working out.
I'm rejuvenated now.
All right, so just hurry and get better.
Why are you here at this hour?
And what's all that?
Hey, I'm going to sleep here tonight.
That's okay, right?
Sure. Suit yourself.
What's wrong? Is something bothering you?
Well…
I couldn't sleep
and I had things on my mind.
Like what?
Well…
Do you think Hwal will really
kill himself with Ok Eul-tae?
How can I sleep
when he's going through that?
Do you like him?
What?
Well, I guess he can be likable.
Gosh, he's won your heart.
The spy has fallen in love.
Whatever. You're the one who asked.
But why did you ask?
Do you not like him?
I don't dislike him.
But I don't like him either. I don't know.
Every time I look at him,
I feel uneasy.
It feels like something bad will happen.
It was for you.
I did it for you!
To turn you into Bulgasal.
You asked me to turn you into Bulgasal
a thousand years ago.
What are you doing here?
I keep thinking about
what Ok Eul-tae said to me.
What did he say this time?
Don't think about it. Just ignore him.
You can't trust him.
He even blamed me for killing your family.
So don't listen to anything he says.
I know.
But he's the only one
who remembers everything.
What happened 600 years ago
and even before that.
I often dreamed
about you stabbing my hand.
But I think it's actually a memory.
And when I found you
at that laundry plant,
I recalled something else.
I'm certain it was a memory.
Ok Eul-tae also said
that it all began, not 600 years ago,
but 1,000 years ago.
There's something that we can't recall.
I need to find out why
you gave me Bulgasal's curse,
how our ill-fated relationship
began 1,000 years ago,
and what kind of person I really was.
Why the long faces?
It's a sunny day.
We were basking in the sun.
Sero…
Something.
We heard it's good for depression.
Are you okay?
I'm okay.
I think Ms. Lee is more upset than I am.
She's very upset with Hwal.
But none of you have to worry.
Hwal won't die that easily.
Why not?
As you know,
Ok Eul-tae is extremely cunning.
He won't get caught that easily
which means Hwal will be safe too.
I see. You're right.
They're jagangducheon!
JAGANGDUCHEON: SHORT FOR
TWO CONCEITED BATTLING GENIUSES
What? Jagangducheon?
No, this isn't something
to be happy about.
Can I have a word with you?
Over there.
What?
What is it? I want to hear it too.
Forget it.
What is it? What's wrong?
Well…
I recall you saying
that Bulgasal were scary beings.
That's right.
Does that mean Hwal could also turn
into something scary like Ok Eul-tae?
Why are you asking me this
all of a sudden?
I'm just anxious.
I don't know if I can trust him.
I'm not sure if he's a good person.
You also said before
that you couldn't trust him.
Well, that was because…
What?
What's going on? Are you back for good?
No, we're just stopping by.
I have a favor to ask.
A favor?
Hwal!
Over here!
Hwal.
We need to talk.
What? What is it?
What's your plan?
I wouldn't have let you go alone
had I known about your outrageous plan.
What do you mean?
I know what you need
to do to kill Ok Eul-tae.
Turn Sang-un back
into Bulgasal this instant.
-What?
-She was Bulgasal to begin with.
Let them sort this matter out themselves.
You stay out of it!
I can't do that.
-Why not?
-Because…
Your original plan was
to retrieve your soul from her.
So take it back right now
and never see her again. Okay?
Don't tell me…
you're going to sacrifice
your life for her.
Has living together made her grow on you?
What's gotten into you?
That's not why. She's…
Dan Sol's only family.
Sol will be heartbroken if she dies.
Is that your excuse?
Then what about me?
You're my family.
I may have been harsh on you but…
When I was little,
I considered you my father.
As I grew older…
you became an uncle,
and then an older brother.
And now that I'm older than you,
I think of you as my son.
So don't die in her place.
Call me cold-hearted for all I care.
You're my one and only family.
Mr. Dan…
Mr. Dan.
Please don't die.
Please don't die, Mr. Dan.
You want to retrieve your memory
from 1,000 years ago?
Yes. Since you can read a soul's memory,
maybe you can read that far back too.
Well, I've never gone that far before.
But why?
Hwal wants to check something.
He said we also met 1,000 years ago.
And that was when it all began.
If it's too much to handle,
you don't need to do it.
No. I want to give it a try.
I'm curious too.
I want to know
why Kim Hwa-yeon wanted to kill him.
Hey, you're here.
Is Ms. Lee very upset?
No, it was nothing serious.
Sang-un told me that you want to know
what happened 1,000 years ago.
Do you think you can do it?
It could take a toll on your body.
It's okay. I'll give it a try.
I have to kill both Bulgasals.
I have to kill them.
Are you okay? Let me see.
Who are you?
What? It's Hwa-yeon.
Come on. Let's go inside.
Don't look.
You shouldn't look at past lives.
Hye-seok, what are you talking about?
Go back!
What are you doing? Let go of her.
You shouldn't look at
this soul's past lives.
Everyone will die if you do.
Once the memories are recalled,
everyone will die.
So go back and never come here again!
Leave!
Si-ho.
She told me to go back.
She said I shouldn't look at the past.
Who said that?
Ms. Lee.
That little girl you saved
from the fire told me
that once we retrieved the memories,
everyone would die.
Si-ho. Your hand.
You're already leaving again?
What a waste of gas.
You know I have to go.
Why are you so quiet?
You were worried sick about him.
What?
When was I worried sick?
You're always overreacting, you know that?
What is it? Do you have something to say?
Can we go back to the old house with you?
No.
He's right. You'll only get in the way.
Come on. You're so harsh.
Am I a burden or something?
Look. Is there anything I can do?
It feels suffocating to stay here.
-Maybe I should come--
-No.
He's right. You'll also get in the way.
You little brat. I was lenient with you
because you were injured
and even cut you some slack
when you were a spy.
This is really upsetting.
What? Upsetting?
Do you even know how that feels?
No, I don't. So?
-I knew it.
-So what?
Where's Hye-seok?
She doesn't want to see you,
so she won't come out.
You should be lying down.
I'm okay.
I was only dizzy for a little bit.
But do you have to go too?
I should keep an eye on him
so he won't do anything reckless.
Don't worry.
How could I not
when you're acting like this?
You always say that.
Here.
What is this?
Side dishes. I know there's no food there.
They're from Ms. Lee.
And she said she's sorry.
What? For what?
I don't know either.
Tell her I said thank you.
Ms. Lee, what are you doing?
Hwal and Sang-un have left.
Right. She thanked you
for the side dishes.
Did you and Hwal argue?
You still should've seen them off.
Ms. Lee, what are you wiping?
Let me do it.
They should not have crossed paths again.
-They should not have met again.
-What?
They shouldn't have met.
It's starting again.
It will happen once more.
What do you mean?
They should not have crossed paths again.
-It's starting again.
-Ms. Lee.
-Ms. Lee!
-Yes? What?
You mumbled something odd.
I did? I was wiping the floor.
You said they shouldn't have met
and that it would start again.
What did you mean?
I thought Si-ho
would have been able to see.
But we failed.
-I guess so.
-But are you really not going to tell me?
About what?
About what Ok Eul-tae said.
You're shaken by what he said.
You're so tight-lipped.
How stubborn.
Then what's your plan now?
We don't know
what happened 1,000 years ago.
There's still another way.
Be quiet and I'll spare you.
Yes, sir.
Where is Ok Eul-tae?
He's not here.
He hasn't returned since yesterday.
DAN HWAL
He's still at the mountain?
I'm certain he's still there.
He's lost too much blood to get away.
I'm sure he's there.
This is our opportunity to get him.
You know what to do, right? Wait here.
OK EUL-TAE
I guess Bulgasal can be pretty weak too.
The terrifying and immortal Bulgasal
looks like a corpse now.
That's because I'm only half Bulgasal.
Are you here to end me?
Yes.
But I have a question before that.
Depending on your answer,
you could end up in the well alone,
or I, the root of all this,
could die with you right here.
I came here to make that decision.
So tell me everything you know.
What kind of person was I 1,000 years ago?
Why did I ask you
to turn me into Bulgasal?
Why did Min Sang-un
give me Bulgasal's curse?
Then kill her for me.
What?
I'll tell you everything
after you kill her.
I'll tell you everything you don't know.
Kill her and bring her body to me.
You're not in your right mind.
You're still obsessed with her
despite being on the brink of death.
She's been running away from us
for the past 600 years.
It's time to let her go now.
You're the one
who's not in your right mind.
What is she to you?
Do you even know what she did to you
a thousand years ago?
I don't care.
I may have wanted
to kill her when she was Bulgasal,
but I want to save the person she is now.
You made the same choice 1,000 years ago.
And after all that she's done to you,
here you are again.
Your damned one-sided love.
Aren't you sick of it?
What are you talking about?
In the end, she will end you for good.
She will ruin everything for you.
Fine.
I won't expect anything from you anymore.
Since you have chosen her over me,
I will take everything you have
the next time we meet.
Even your son, your father, and your wife.
I will kill everyone you cherish.
Okay. Do as you wish.
Stab my heart or cut it out if you want.
But you better hurry.
There's not much time left.
No. I have plenty of time.
You're wrong.
You're running out of time.
You're not allowed to park here.
Oh, really? I won't be here for long.
I'll leave soon.
Please step out of the car
and show me your ID card.
Why? I wasn't going to stay here for long.
Then I'll just leave right now.
You're Min Sang-un, aren't you?
I'm running out of time? What do you mean?
I called one of my men.
I thought you'd come back
with Min Sang-un,
the woman you never leave behind.
Who are you?
I said I'd kill everyone you cherished.
Don't go.
Don't go.
Don't go.
Just…
Just…
let her go.
Focus on me.
Focus on me.
This is your chance to kill me.
I'll tell you everything you want to know.
So let go of her and come to me.
Please don't go.
Let go of her and come to me.
Don't go…
Don't go…
Are you okay?
You were stabbed.
It's not that serious.
I'm okay.
You bled a lot.
This isn't my blood.
I think I stabbed…
someone.
He's gone.
He left me behind.
He abandoned me.
Chairman Ok.
What about Min Sang-un?
Is she dead?
No, sir.
She attacked me.
You were attacked?
She suddenly became strong.
She wasn't herself.
Is that so?
I'm sorry, sir.
I see.
Come here and help me up.
Hurry.
It's okay.
Help me up right now.
Come on.
I may have wanted
to kill her when she was Bulgasal,
but I want to save the person she is now.
Let me see.
Are you okay?
Are you really not going to the hospital?
If I do,
I'll have to go with Detective Kwon.
Then Si-ho will find out.
I don't want her to worry.
And this isn't that bad anyway.
We need to stitch it up
to stop the bleeding.
Can you do it?
I've done all sorts of things
for the past 600 years.
But I can't guarantee
that it'll look pretty.
That's okay.
I have no one to show it to anyway.
Do you think
that cop will be okay?
Don't feel guilty about it.
It was self-defense.
But I stabbed a man.
He attacked you first. You could've died.
I did it involuntarily.
What do you mean?
I don't remember much
after getting stabbed.
When I came to…
I was holding the knife.
This happened once before.
I felt like a lunatic.
You did well.
I don't care if you went crazy.
Just don't die.
I would've put Ok Eul-tae in the well
if I knew this would happen.
Did you see him?
I thought you didn't.
Why didn't you do it?
I don't know.
I couldn't think straight.
Because I was worried you might die.
Let's treat your wound first.
I don't know why I like you,
but I know one thing for sure.
I don't want you to die.
I'm sorry…
for dragging you
into this mess I have with Ok Eul-tae
and for making you suffer
for the past 600 years.
I'm truly sorry.
SI-HO
Sang-un?
It's me, Hwal.
I see. Where's my sister?
She wasn't feeling well,
so she went to bed.
What? How is she not feeling well?
I'll tell her to call when she wakes up.
How are you guys doing?
Not good.
We're safe here,
so that makes us
more worried about you two.
You may be worried, but I'm at ease.
So stay there for now.
-What?
-I'm hanging up.
Wait.
Please take good care…
of Sang-un.
Why are you suddenly--
Please don't betray her.
Keep her safe until the end.
And take care…
of yourself too.
I wanted to tell you that.
I'll hang up now.
Did you speak with Sang-un?
No.
She wasn't feeling well,
so she went to bed early.
I wonder what's wrong. It's worrying me.
-Detective Kwon--
-No.
I refuse.
I didn't even ask yet.
You obviously want to go there.
Ok Eul-tae is still alive and well.
You'll only get in the way.
Come on. We'll make sure
we don't get in the way.
Why are you coming?
You should stay here.
It's too dangerous for you.
Gosh, what a traitor.
-You're going there alone?
-Of course.
Don't be ridiculous.
Hwal told me to make sure
no one left this house.
I see. So you're his henchman?
What did you say?
Sang-un isn't feeling well.
Instead of staying here and worrying,
let me just go there.
Come on.
They wouldn't like that.
No. This won't do.
-I can't do this anymore.
-What's wrong with her?
Wait.
She's prophesying like she did before.
I can't do this.
-Ms. Lee, are you okay?
-I can't.
I can't do this.
Damn it, I just can't!
I'm feeling suffocated in here.
I'm not the type to sit still and worry.
Plus, there's no TV here.
All I see are trees and mountains.
Everything is so green.
Who cares about Ok Eul-tae?
I'm getting out of here. Pack up.
Hey, let's go.
Awesome.
-She's amazing.
-Hey.
-Hey, guys.
-She's so my type.
She's my role model.
Are you up?
How long was I asleep?
About three to four hours.
Sleep more if you want to get better soon.
I'm thirsty.
Hold on.
Here.
Thank you.
What is it?
You don't have a fever.
You know, you did the same thing
when Do-yun got hurt too.
You treat us well when we're injured.
I should get hurt more often.
I'll treat you well
even if you're not injured.
So don't get hurt.
Okay. I was just teasing you.
Did you wipe the blood off my body?
Yes. Just where I could see.
I'm still wearing the same clothes.
What's wrong? What is it?
Why are you following me?
Let me help you change.
It won't be easy to do it alone.
It's okay. I can do it myself.
Stay here.
What are you doing?
There's blood in my hair.
I want to wash it off
but I'm having trouble.
You can do that later.
It's blood. It feels unpleasant.
Okay. Sit here.
What are you going to do?
I can do it.
Stay still. I know it hurts to move.
Let me see.
By the way,
I'm sorry you lost Ok Eul-tae.
What a shame. It was your chance.
I can catch him again.
Did you ask him
about what happened 1,000 years ago?
I did.
What did he say?
He said you'd end me.
That you'd ruin everything for me.
I'd do that? But why?
I don't know.
And?
What else did he say?
He said I…
It's nothing. It was all nonsense.
Like you said…
I don't think I should listen to him.
I'll only be shaken.
I'm just going to rely on what I remember.
Good. I think that's right.
I'm going to do the same.
I'll judge the situation for what it is.
I won't be swayed
by what Kim Hwa-yeon said.
What is it? Did she say something else?
Well…
When Si-ho looked into my past,
Kim Hwa-yeon said
that you and Ok Eul-tae
had to die at the same time.
She told me not to trust you.
Well…
She might be right.
Don't be absurd.
You're the only one I can trust right now.
You and I may have been enemies
in our past lives.
And Kim Hwa-yeon may have wanted you dead.
But you're the only one
who has been helping my sister and me.
So how can I not trust you?
Should we get up now?
Okay. Wait here.
I'll dress your wound again.
What?
It's in the same spot
as Sang-yeon's scar.
I will be born again
with this scar that you have given me.
What's wrong? Are you okay?
What's going on?
Why did you…
do that?
Who are you?
Who…
Who exactly are you?
BULGASAL: IMMORTAL SOULS
Subtitle translation by: Soo-ji Kim
It's different from the dreams
I had when I was young.
You were the one standing
among the dead bodies.
Why did you come back here?
Now, I will destroy him completely.
We received a report that
a murder suspect was here.
-Arrest them!
-No!
-Why are you doing this?
-Let go of me!
Where are they right now?
Where they are is not what's important.
You should be asking why I took them.
If you lay even a finger on them
I'm going to kill you all.

EPISODE 12
This is the end of the valley,
but I don't see Ok Eul-tae.
Maybe he's already left the mountain.
This was my chance to kill him,
but I made a mistake from the start.
I shouldn't have lost him
when we fell into the water.
Let's search again.
Let's go.
This won't do.
You'll collapse before we even find him.
Sit down. Let's rest.
Come on.
Let me see the wound.
I'm okay. We're running out of time.
This is our chance to get him.
He's probably weak from the blood loss.
What will you do with him?
I'll kill him.
That means you'll die as well.
How do you know that?
Si-ho looked into my past life
and heard Kim Hwa-yeon say so.
She said in order to kill Ok Eul-tae,
you have to die as well.
So even if you do find him,
don't kill him.
Lock him up in that well.
Let's find him first.
Don't change the subject.
Promise me.
Tell me you won't die with him.
Why won't you answer?
Fine.
It's Si-ho.
Hey, Si-ho.
Hey, how did it go? Did you find Hwal?
Yes. He's with me right now.
-Then come home right now.
-We can't go right now.
I can't tell you the details.
I won't. You understand, right?
Anyway, we're both okay.
Sang-un, you do understand
what Kim Hwa-yeon said, right?
You shouldn't trust Hwal either.
You know that, right?
I do. Don't worry.
Is everything okay there?
Yes. Everything's fine.
Don't worry about us.
Okay.
What is it?
Is something wrong over there?
No, she just called to check up on us.
How did it go?
She won't tell me the details.
She just said Hwal was okay.
What a load of nonsense.
I bet he was beaten to a pulp.
Why did Sang-un go there?
Ok Eul-tae could have taken her.
She found a way to kill him.
-She did?
-What is it?
Well, it's…
Tell us already. What is it?
Both Bulgasals have to die
at the same time.
They're the swords
that can kill each other.
So in order to kill Ok Eul-tae,
Hwal needs to die as well?
Don't be ridiculous.
Elaborate. Is he right?
Please calm down.
Sang-un went there to dissuade Hwal.
So that he wouldn't die with Ok Eul-tae.
What are you talking about?
Hwal has to die?
1,000 YEARS AGO
Try getting up.
Please tell me.
I have always wanted to become like you.
I have been waiting all this time.
Even those of low birth live well.
So how could someone as noble as me
remain sickly until the day he dies?
Isn't that too unfair?
So please tell me.
What do I have to do to become like you?
What?
Gosh, what are you doing?
What? We should stay together.
Ok Eul-tae could come at any moment.
No, thank you. I'll be fine.
Where are you going?
I mean…
This isn't the only room in this house.
Don't you know that men and women
should keep some distance at night?
Wasn't that the norm back in your day?
That was ages ago.
I'm doing this for my convenience.
Or would you feel better if I stayed
outside your door like I did before?
Stop tossing around and go to sleep.
Is it because of your nightmares?
No. That's not why.
I just feel a bit uncomfortable.
Why? Because of me?
Isn't that obvious?
We've slept together before.
You better not say that to anyone else.
We didn't sleep together.
We just slept in the same room.
Sharing a room sounds weirder.
It does if you say it like that!
I'm going to sleep now.
I feel more tired after talking with you.
I smell instant noodles.
-But have you ever made that before?
-No.
Aren't these the instructions?
That's right.
I could have cooked instead, you know?
I don't want you to burn down the house.
You know what?
It's nice that someone's cooking for me.
That's a lot of water.
Thank you.
Why are you staring at me?
It's good.
Do you have something to say?
I'm bothered by what you said
back at the mountain.
Do you have feelings for me?
That was out of the blue.
What are you suddenly talking about?
You said you didn't want me to die.
You wanted Ok Eul-tae to die,
but you were scared that I'd die too.
What else did you say?
That I was more important
than your revenge.
That everything was ruined.
Is that how you interpreted it?
Well, I guess you're right then.
Why did you fall for me?
I'm not sure.
Since when?
I don't know!
Is this something
I should be interrogated about?
That's because…
there's no way you'd ever like me.
-Why not?
-I don't know.
So tell me the reason why you do.
Well…
If you want a reason…
Right.
Because you helped me.
I was going to kill you.
But you didn't.
I told you I temporarily spared
your life because of my soul.
Still, I know you hesitated
from time to time.
Because deep down, you have a good heart.
Maybe that's why I like you. Happy?
No. I still don't get it.
No one ever said
I was good-hearted either.
And I'm not.
You're the good-hearted one.
You care about those around you.
But that doesn't make me like you.
Well…
Okay.
Can we please stop talking about this?
Goodness. I'd like to eat.
I think I might get indigestion.
But did something happen to you
during the past 600 years?
I said I liked you, but you started
interrogating and suspecting me.
It's just that
no one has ever liked me before.
Even my own wife disliked me.
That's because of your temper.
You're right.
What are you doing?
I don't know why I like you,
but I know one thing for sure.
I don't want you to die.
So let's go back to our old selves.
I'll return your soul
and become Bulgasal again.
Why all of a sudden?
I know once you find Ok Eul-tae
you're planning to die with him.
But I won't allow that.
Then will you turn into Bulgasal
and die with him instead?
I'd rather do that.
Because I was Bulgasal to begin with.
So you don't need to sacrifice yourself.
I never thought of it that way.
It's something I have to do.
You, Si-ho, and Do-yun
can't live in hiding forever.
I don't want to live
if it means you have to die.
No one…
wants that.
I'll handle Ok Eul-tae on my own.
Let's go back to our old selves.
I'm sorry…
for dragging you
into this mess I have with Ok Eul-tae
and for making you suffer
for the past 600 years.
I'm truly sorry.
Live an ordinary life
with the son you had lost.
I don't know how to live
as a human anymore.
So how can I become one again?
-But--
-You took my soul as you wished,
so I'll do the same.
What will happen to Si-ho if you die?
Then if you die,
what will happen to Do-yun?
Enough of this nonsense.
Let's get some rest.
No. I'll protect you two.
I will. Who are you?
Do-yun.
Why are you up so late
when you still need to recover?
That's refreshing.
I need protein after working out.
I'm rejuvenated now.
All right, so just hurry and get better.
Why are you here at this hour?
And what's all that?
Hey, I'm going to sleep here tonight.
That's okay, right?
Sure. Suit yourself.
What's wrong? Is something bothering you?
Well…
I couldn't sleep
and I had things on my mind.
Like what?
Well…
Do you think Hwal will really
kill himself with Ok Eul-tae?
How can I sleep
when he's going through that?
Do you like him?
What?
Well, I guess he can be likable.
Gosh, he's won your heart.
The spy has fallen in love.
Whatever. You're the one who asked.
But why did you ask?
Do you not like him?
I don't dislike him.
But I don't like him either. I don't know.
Every time I look at him,
I feel uneasy.
It feels like something bad will happen.
It was for you.
I did it for you!
To turn you into Bulgasal.
You asked me to turn you into Bulgasal
a thousand years ago.
What are you doing here?
I keep thinking about
what Ok Eul-tae said to me.
What did he say this time?
Don't think about it. Just ignore him.
You can't trust him.
He even blamed me for killing your family.
So don't listen to anything he says.
I know.
But he's the only one
who remembers everything.
What happened 600 years ago
and even before that.
I often dreamed
about you stabbing my hand.
But I think it's actually a memory.
And when I found you
at that laundry plant,
I recalled something else.
I'm certain it was a memory.
Ok Eul-tae also said
that it all began, not 600 years ago,
but 1,000 years ago.
There's something that we can't recall.
I need to find out why
you gave me Bulgasal's curse,
how our ill-fated relationship
began 1,000 years ago,
and what kind of person I really was.
Why the long faces?
It's a sunny day.
We were basking in the sun.
Sero…
Something.
We heard it's good for depression.
Are you okay?
I'm okay.
I think Ms. Lee is more upset than I am.
She's very upset with Hwal.
But none of you have to worry.
Hwal won't die that easily.
Why not?
As you know,
Ok Eul-tae is extremely cunning.
He won't get caught that easily
which means Hwal will be safe too.
I see. You're right.
They're jagangducheon!
JAGANGDUCHEON: SHORT FOR
TWO CONCEITED BATTLING GENIUSES
What? Jagangducheon?
No, this isn't something
to be happy about.
Can I have a word with you?
Over there.
What?
What is it? I want to hear it too.
Forget it.
What is it? What's wrong?
Well…
I recall you saying
that Bulgasal were scary beings.
That's right.
Does that mean Hwal could also turn
into something scary like Ok Eul-tae?
Why are you asking me this
all of a sudden?
I'm just anxious.
I don't know if I can trust him.
I'm not sure if he's a good person.
You also said before
that you couldn't trust him.
Well, that was because…
What?
What's going on? Are you back for good?
No, we're just stopping by.
I have a favor to ask.
A favor?
Hwal!
Over here!
Hwal.
We need to talk.
What? What is it?
What's your plan?
I wouldn't have let you go alone
had I known about your outrageous plan.
What do you mean?
I know what you need
to do to kill Ok Eul-tae.
Turn Sang-un back
into Bulgasal this instant.
-What?
-She was Bulgasal to begin with.
Let them sort this matter out themselves.
You stay out of it!
I can't do that.
-Why not?
-Because…
Your original plan was
to retrieve your soul from her.
So take it back right now
and never see her again. Okay?
Don't tell me…
you're going to sacrifice
your life for her.
Has living together made her grow on you?
What's gotten into you?
That's not why. She's…
Dan Sol's only family.
Sol will be heartbroken if she dies.
Is that your excuse?
Then what about me?
You're my family.
I may have been harsh on you but…
When I was little,
I considered you my father.
As I grew older…
you became an uncle,
and then an older brother.
And now that I'm older than you,
I think of you as my son.
So don't die in her place.
Call me cold-hearted for all I care.
You're my one and only family.
Mr. Dan…
Mr. Dan.
Please don't die.
Please don't die, Mr. Dan.
You want to retrieve your memory
from 1,000 years ago?
Yes. Since you can read a soul's memory,
maybe you can read that far back too.
Well, I've never gone that far before.
But why?
Hwal wants to check something.
He said we also met 1,000 years ago.
And that was when it all began.
If it's too much to handle,
you don't need to do it.
No. I want to give it a try.
I'm curious too.
I want to know
why Kim Hwa-yeon wanted to kill him.
Hey, you're here.
Is Ms. Lee very upset?
No, it was nothing serious.
Sang-un told me that you want to know
what happened 1,000 years ago.
Do you think you can do it?
It could take a toll on your body.
It's okay. I'll give it a try.
I have to kill both Bulgasals.
I have to kill them.
Are you okay? Let me see.
Who are you?
What? It's Hwa-yeon.
Come on. Let's go inside.
Don't look.
You shouldn't look at past lives.
Hye-seok, what are you talking about?
Go back!
What are you doing? Let go of her.
You shouldn't look at
this soul's past lives.
Everyone will die if you do.
Once the memories are recalled,
everyone will die.
So go back and never come here again!
Leave!
Si-ho.
She told me to go back.
She said I shouldn't look at the past.
Who said that?
Ms. Lee.
That little girl you saved
from the fire told me
that once we retrieved the memories,
everyone would die.
Si-ho. Your hand.
You're already leaving again?
What a waste of gas.
You know I have to go.
Why are you so quiet?
You were worried sick about him.
What?
When was I worried sick?
You're always overreacting, you know that?
What is it? Do you have something to say?
Can we go back to the old house with you?
No.
He's right. You'll only get in the way.
Come on. You're so harsh.
Am I a burden or something?
Look. Is there anything I can do?
It feels suffocating to stay here.
-Maybe I should come--
-No.
He's right. You'll also get in the way.
You little brat. I was lenient with you
because you were injured
and even cut you some slack
when you were a spy.
This is really upsetting.
What? Upsetting?
Do you even know how that feels?
No, I don't. So?
-I knew it.
-So what?
Where's Hye-seok?
She doesn't want to see you,
so she won't come out.
You should be lying down.
I'm okay.
I was only dizzy for a little bit.
But do you have to go too?
I should keep an eye on him
so he won't do anything reckless.
Don't worry.
How could I not
when you're acting like this?
You always say that.
Here.
What is this?
Side dishes. I know there's no food there.
They're from Ms. Lee.
And she said she's sorry.
What? For what?
I don't know either.
Tell her I said thank you.
Ms. Lee, what are you doing?
Hwal and Sang-un have left.
Right. She thanked you
for the side dishes.
Did you and Hwal argue?
You still should've seen them off.
Ms. Lee, what are you wiping?
Let me do it.
They should not have crossed paths again.
-They should not have met again.
-What?
They shouldn't have met.
It's starting again.
It will happen once more.
What do you mean?
They should not have crossed paths again.
-It's starting again.
-Ms. Lee.
-Ms. Lee!
-Yes? What?
You mumbled something odd.
I did? I was wiping the floor.
You said they shouldn't have met
and that it would start again.
What did you mean?
I thought Si-ho
would have been able to see.
But we failed.
-I guess so.
-But are you really not going to tell me?
About what?
About what Ok Eul-tae said.
You're shaken by what he said.
You're so tight-lipped.
How stubborn.
Then what's your plan now?
We don't know
what happened 1,000 years ago.
There's still another way.
Be quiet and I'll spare you.
Yes, sir.
Where is Ok Eul-tae?
He's not here.
He hasn't returned since yesterday.
DAN HWAL
He's still at the mountain?
I'm certain he's still there.
He's lost too much blood to get away.
I'm sure he's there.
This is our opportunity to get him.
You know what to do, right? Wait here.
OK EUL-TAE
I guess Bulgasal can be pretty weak too.
The terrifying and immortal Bulgasal
looks like a corpse now.
That's because I'm only half Bulgasal.
Are you here to end me?
Yes.
But I have a question before that.
Depending on your answer,
you could end up in the well alone,
or I, the root of all this,
could die with you right here.
I came here to make that decision.
So tell me everything you know.
What kind of person was I 1,000 years ago?
Why did I ask you
to turn me into Bulgasal?
Why did Min Sang-un
give me Bulgasal's curse?
Then kill her for me.
What?
I'll tell you everything
after you kill her.
I'll tell you everything you don't know.
Kill her and bring her body to me.
You're not in your right mind.
You're still obsessed with her
despite being on the brink of death.
She's been running away from us
for the past 600 years.
It's time to let her go now.
You're the one
who's not in your right mind.
What is she to you?
Do you even know what she did to you
a thousand years ago?
I don't care.
I may have wanted
to kill her when she was Bulgasal,
but I want to save the person she is now.
You made the same choice 1,000 years ago.
And after all that she's done to you,
here you are again.
Your damned one-sided love.
Aren't you sick of it?
What are you talking about?
In the end, she will end you for good.
She will ruin everything for you.
Fine.
I won't expect anything from you anymore.
Since you have chosen her over me,
I will take everything you have
the next time we meet.
Even your son, your father, and your wife.
I will kill everyone you cherish.
Okay. Do as you wish.
Stab my heart or cut it out if you want.
But you better hurry.
There's not much time left.
No. I have plenty of time.
You're wrong.
You're running out of time.
You're not allowed to park here.
Oh, really? I won't be here for long.
I'll leave soon.
Please step out of the car
and show me your ID card.
Why? I wasn't going to stay here for long.
Then I'll just leave right now.
You're Min Sang-un, aren't you?
I'm running out of time? What do you mean?
I called one of my men.
I thought you'd come back
with Min Sang-un,
the woman you never leave behind.
Who are you?
I said I'd kill everyone you cherished.
Don't go.
Don't go.
Don't go.
Just…
Just…
let her go.
Focus on me.
Focus on me.
This is your chance to kill me.
I'll tell you everything you want to know.
So let go of her and come to me.
Please don't go.
Let go of her and come to me.
Don't go…
Don't go…
Are you okay?
You were stabbed.
It's not that serious.
I'm okay.
You bled a lot.
This isn't my blood.
I think I stabbed…
someone.
He's gone.
He left me behind.
He abandoned me.
Chairman Ok.
What about Min Sang-un?
Is she dead?
No, sir.
She attacked me.
You were attacked?
She suddenly became strong.
She wasn't herself.
Is that so?
I'm sorry, sir.
I see.
Come here and help me up.
Hurry.
It's okay.
Help me up right now.
Come on.
I may have wanted
to kill her when she was Bulgasal,
but I want to save the person she is now.
Let me see.
Are you okay?
Are you really not going to the hospital?
If I do,
I'll have to go with Detective Kwon.
Then Si-ho will find out.
I don't want her to worry.
And this isn't that bad anyway.
We need to stitch it up
to stop the bleeding.
Can you do it?
I've done all sorts of things
for the past 600 years.
But I can't guarantee
that it'll look pretty.
That's okay.
I have no one to show it to anyway.
Do you think
that cop will be okay?
Don't feel guilty about it.
It was self-defense.
But I stabbed a man.
He attacked you first. You could've died.
I did it involuntarily.
What do you mean?
I don't remember much
after getting stabbed.
When I came to…
I was holding the knife.
This happened once before.
I felt like a lunatic.
You did well.
I don't care if you went crazy.
Just don't die.
I would've put Ok Eul-tae in the well
if I knew this would happen.
Did you see him?
I thought you didn't.
Why didn't you do it?
I don't know.
I couldn't think straight.
Because I was worried you might die.
Let's treat your wound first.
I don't know why I like you,
but I know one thing for sure.
I don't want you to die.
I'm sorry…
for dragging you
into this mess I have with Ok Eul-tae
and for making you suffer
for the past 600 years.
I'm truly sorry.
SI-HO
Sang-un?
It's me, Hwal.
I see. Where's my sister?
She wasn't feeling well,
so she went to bed.
What? How is she not feeling well?
I'll tell her to call when she wakes up.
How are you guys doing?
Not good.
We're safe here,
so that makes us
more worried about you two.
You may be worried, but I'm at ease.
So stay there for now.
-What?
-I'm hanging up.
Wait.
Please take good care…
of Sang-un.
Why are you suddenly--
Please don't betray her.
Keep her safe until the end.
And take care…
of yourself too.
I wanted to tell you that.
I'll hang up now.
Did you speak with Sang-un?
No.
She wasn't feeling well,
so she went to bed early.
I wonder what's wrong. It's worrying me.
-Detective Kwon--
-No.
I refuse.
I didn't even ask yet.
You obviously want to go there.
Ok Eul-tae is still alive and well.
You'll only get in the way.
Come on. We'll make sure
we don't get in the way.
Why are you coming?
You should stay here.
It's too dangerous for you.
Gosh, what a traitor.
-You're going there alone?
-Of course.
Don't be ridiculous.
Hwal told me to make sure
no one left this house.
I see. So you're his henchman?
What did you say?
Sang-un isn't feeling well.
Instead of staying here and worrying,
let me just go there.
Come on.
They wouldn't like that.
No. This won't do.
-I can't do this anymore.
-What's wrong with her?
Wait.
She's prophesying like she did before.
I can't do this.
-Ms. Lee, are you okay?
-I can't.
I can't do this.
Damn it, I just can't!
I'm feeling suffocated in here.
I'm not the type to sit still and worry.
Plus, there's no TV here.
All I see are trees and mountains.
Everything is so green.
Who cares about Ok Eul-tae?
I'm getting out of here. Pack up.
Hey, let's go.
Awesome.
-She's amazing.
-Hey.
-Hey, guys.
-She's so my type.
She's my role model.
Are you up?
How long was I asleep?
About three to four hours.
Sleep more if you want to get better soon.
I'm thirsty.
Hold on.
Here.
Thank you.
What is it?
You don't have a fever.
You know, you did the same thing
when Do-yun got hurt too.
You treat us well when we're injured.
I should get hurt more often.
I'll treat you well
even if you're not injured.
So don't get hurt.
Okay. I was just teasing you.
Did you wipe the blood off my body?
Yes. Just where I could see.
I'm still wearing the same clothes.
What's wrong? What is it?
Why are you following me?
Let me help you change.
It won't be easy to do it alone.
It's okay. I can do it myself.
Stay here.
What are you doing?
There's blood in my hair.
I want to wash it off
but I'm having trouble.
You can do that later.
It's blood. It feels unpleasant.
Okay. Sit here.
What are you going to do?
I can do it.
Stay still. I know it hurts to move.
Let me see.
By the way,
I'm sorry you lost Ok Eul-tae.
What a shame. It was your chance.
I can catch him again.
Did you ask him
about what happened 1,000 years ago?
I did.
What did he say?
He said you'd end me.
That you'd ruin everything for me.
I'd do that? But why?
I don't know.
And?
What else did he say?
He said I…
It's nothing. It was all nonsense.
Like you said…
I don't think I should listen to him.
I'll only be shaken.
I'm just going to rely on what I remember.
Good. I think that's right.
I'm going to do the same.
I'll judge the situation for what it is.
I won't be swayed
by what Kim Hwa-yeon said.
What is it? Did she say something else?
Well…
When Si-ho looked into my past,
Kim Hwa-yeon said
that you and Ok Eul-tae
had to die at the same time.
She told me not to trust you.
Well…
She might be right.
Don't be absurd.
You're the only one I can trust right now.
You and I may have been enemies
in our past lives.
And Kim Hwa-yeon may have wanted you dead.
But you're the only one
who has been helping my sister and me.
So how can I not trust you?
Should we get up now?
Okay. Wait here.
I'll dress your wound again.
What?
It's in the same spot
as Sang-yeon's scar.
I will be born again
with this scar that you have given me.
What's wrong? Are you okay?
What's going on?
Why did you…
do that?
Who are you?
Who…
Who exactly are you?
BULGASAL: IMMORTAL SOULS
Subtitle translation by: Soo-ji Kim
It's different from the dreams
I had when I was young.
You were the one standing
among the dead bodies.
Why did you come back here?
Now, I will destroy him completely.
We received a report that
a murder suspect was here.
-Arrest them!
-No!
-Why are you doing this?
-Let go of me!
Where are they right now?
Where they are is not what's important.
You should be asking why I took them.
If you lay even a finger on them
I'm going to kill you all.
