My Man Is Cupid (2023) s01e12 Episode Script

1
Just like that,
as wild grass,
a wild flower,
a bug
and a butterfly…
you were on your way to me.
Without resting.
With everything you have.
You can refuse me 100 times.
I'll just confess 101 times.
-You smell nice.
-You smell nice.
-Buy me the wheat flour tteokbokki I like.
-Bought me wheat tteokbokki.
-An angel with wings.
-I saw him when I counted to three.
Who was that? Was it Dong-gu again?
Detective Seo?
Listen to me carefully.
I know it's hard to believe,
but you have to.
-What's wrong? You're scaring me.
-Oh Baek-ryeon.
I have to protect you.
WITNESS TESTIMONY
(OH BAEK-RYEON)
SAW THE WINGS OF AN ANGEL
What are you looking at?
What? Is it Sang-hyuk's diary?
What is this?
Sang-hyuk is not human.
-This man is--
-He said that was his father.
EVIDENCE NUMBER ONE
I didn't believe it at first,
but I saw it with my own eyes.
The deep scar on his finger disappeared
in just a few minutes.
And his hands turned transparent.
It was a split second, but I saw it.
If he's not human…
I'll find out what he really is.
So until then…
You're here.
I put this month's bills
and rent on your desk.
Okay.
What's wrong with her?
Then, what I saw that day was real?
If he's not human, then…
Mr. Superman.
You don't even have a scratch on you.
You didn't even bleed a drop.
Then the reason
he hasn't gotten hurt so far…
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.
…is because he's not human?
I put the bills up there.
There.
Okay.
This is my 997th time.
Excuse me.
I didn't go all the way up that day.
I'm short by one.
So from now on, keep your distance.
-When Sang-hyuk comes--
-What are you talking about?
I have no idea what you're talking about.
I don't think I should keep listening
to you. I'm going back in.
Do you think I'm joking?
Keep your distance
until we figure out what he is!
He could be dangerous!
Did he hurt me?
He's been protecting me all along.
-Where is Oh Baek-ryeon?
-Baek-ryeon went out.
Where did she go? Damn it.
One thousand.
Baek-ryeon!
Baek-ryeon!
How did you find me?
I heard today was the thousandth time.
Thank you
for showing up.
So you're the one who interfered
with the threads of fate I set up.
You're the one they call courage.
That court lady is destined
to be with someone else.
She's linked to another
by a red thread of fate I set up.
Today is her thousandth, right?
You played a cute prank.
But they can't be together.
A fairy can't be with a human
because I won't let it happen.
The time that court lady and the fairy
accumulated themselves…
A thousand times.
500 years.
And the biggest variable,
that even you can't change,
a fairy who isn't a human.
It's Cheon Sang-hyuk.
Isn't the only reason
you instilled fear in the fairy
for thousands of years
because of that fate?
He will soon enter into metamorphosis.
He cannot settle in the world of humans.
Sir.
These lotus flowers also took root
in a very unsavory piece of land.
Beautifully.
EP12. THE REASON YOU ARE
IN FRONT OF ME NOW
That vet was the court lady, Lee So-hee,
and the high school student, Yoo Jeong-ah?
So the reason she was fine until now
is because they are meant to be together?
Don't be ridiculous.
-Sang-hyuk isn't human.
-Then what is he?
How else would you explain
why they met like this?
The last metamorphosis will begin soon.
It doesn't matter if they're meant to
be together. They don't have time.
Why did it have to happen now
right before the end?
-There's one thing Sang-hyuk doesn't know.
-What is it?
I'll never tell him
because he's reckless.
We met too late.
We haven't known each other for 500 years.
Why didn't we meet sooner?
Could there be a more tragic encounter?
They always reduce it
when I make it bigger. Damn it.
Because I don't need any other reason.
You're the only one I see.
But why?
Gentle gaze.
How come? For what reason?
This is so uncomfortable.
It's really awkward.
Why is my student into me of all people?
People who have never dated
fall in love so randomly
for no good reason.
How many lessons do I have left?
TEACH AT ACADEMY
Gentle gaze.
Oh, my gosh!
-You should go inside.
-Okay.
You should really go in now.
Okay. I'll really go in now.
Wait.
-I want to make sure of something.
-About what?
We're on the same page, right?
What do you mean?
I mean, we can call each other
"honey" now, right?
Well…
Yes, that's right.
Well, there was no motorcycle
at the cliff.
You ran all the way there.
If you change your mind the next day,
that would make you a jerk.
All right. Fine.
Don't worry, and go home.
Honey.
All right, honey.
-Good night.
-One more thing.
-You're not an alien, are you?
-Alien?
You're not a ghost
or anything like that either, right?
-What are you talking about?
-I mean, Detective Seo said
he saw something.
He said your hands turned transparent.
Actually, I saw it too.
-You did?
-When I was in the hospital.
I had just woken up and opened my eyes.
And I saw this turn transparent.
I must've been seeing things
due to my head injury.
Did Detective Seo hurt his head too?
He must've gotten hurt
fighting the criminal
in that abandoned factory, just like me.
Right. That must be it.
But he was really serious.
I think…
he likes me a lot.
-How did you reach that conclusion?
-Does he want to separate us that badly?
Even so, how can he call you an alien?
Now I get why Do-ra reacted that way
when I insisted I was an angel.
But don't worry.
No matter what anyone says…
my heart belongs here.
In my honey's heart.
Go on in.
RELIABLE POLICE, SAFE COUNTRY
WITNESS TESTIMONY REPOR
GIVEN UNDER HYPNOSIS
-You want to know who I am?
-It's a matter of time until I find out.
If you confess,
I may take it into consideration.
I'll tell you one thing.
That person…
It is me.
CHEON SANG-HYUK
An alien, a monster, a ghost.
I wonder which one would apply to me.
-Are you messing with--
-I like Baek-ryeon.
Geez.
You're picking a fight with me.
I also want to know who you are
and why we met again.
I saw a guy
who looks like Prince Lee Seon.
At the vet clinic.
Find them. Search every corner of Joseon
if you have to.
My love!
My love!
Stay here for a second.
Prince Lee Seon who was tenaciously after
the court lady and Sang-hyuk.
The vet clinic?
-Where the vet Oh Baek-ryeon works?
-Yes.
I feel uneasy.
What happens
if the last metamorphosis goes wrong?
You know, don't you?
What is it?
What happens?
WITNESS TESTIMONY
(OH BAEK-RYEON)
She came to me.
-And now she's right in front of me.
-So?
You want to catch up with her
for the times you missed?
You don't have time for that!
I'm going to stay by her side.
And
I'll protect her.
You'll be going through
the last metamorphosis soon.
I know that.
I'm going to stay with her
until the day I disappear.
If that's what she wants.
We don't have time.
I don't have much time either.
Do you think humans are
the only intelligent life form?
The US military claims there are no UFOs,
but the evidence is pouring in.
What do you all think?
Hey, Detective Myung.
-I need your help.
-What is it?
-Do I look crazy?
-No, sir.
I was the only one to witness it,
so it's driving me crazy.
That's why I need one more person.
You know I adore you a lot, right?
But why do you want to reveal
who he really is?
Hey. What if he's a really harmful alien
to humans?
Who's going to protect humans?
The police.
That punk is staying close to Ms. Oh.
I understand what you mean.
You know that
I care a lot about you, right?
-Yes, thank you.
-Yeah.
I'm sure he'll transform at one point.
-We must capture the moment.
-Yes, sir.
Right.
Hello, Detective Seo.
You must've been startled earlier.
I was a bit flustered, but I'm okay.
I'm worried about you, Ms. Oh.
I'm worried,
and I feel uneasy.
I don't think it's anything
to worry about.
Still…
I'll worry about you.
That's up to me, isn't it?
-You're an amazing person, but--
-Can you not finish that sentence?
Let me worry about you, at least.
You could, right?
This must be the place.
CHEON SANG-HYUK
I slept well.
Am I a dog again?
What's going on?
What? Why am I leashed?
What's going on?
What on earth? Why are these on my hands?
My back…
Who's there? Who are you?
Starting today, I'll give you
breakfast, lunch and dinner only.
-What?
-Just eat your meals and stay in here.
Have you lost it? What are you doing?
What do you mean?
I'm paying you back
for what you did to me.
I'll do exactly what you did to me.
Go through the humiliation
of relieving yourself there.
Hey. Cheon Dong-gu.
Cheon Dong-gu!
Geez.
Gosh.
What's with all this noise?
Hey, Sang-hyuk. Get this thing off of me.
Get it off.
-Cheon Dong-gu!
-What's wrong with him?
Sang-hyuk.
Can you unlock these for me?
What's with those chains?
I thought you and I had an understanding.
What?
Right.
No.
I'm sorry.
Hey, hey.
Sang-hyuk!
Sang-hyuk! Dong-gu!
Whose dog is that?
That's why they should've been nice.
Please just make sure
they don't make too much noise.
-I trust you, my friend.
-See you later.
17 - JEONG-AH'S BIRTHDAY
21 - VERNAL EQUINOX
Who told you to dress up so nicely?
What if everyone falls in love with you?
Next time, don't dress up so nicely.
Everyone is staring at you.
They'll bore a hole in your face.
My goodness. We don't want that to happen.
-Should I not put on makeup tomorrow?
-You'd be even more beautiful then.
This won't do. Get in the car.
I should hide you
so no one else can see you.
There.
So what if he's an alien
when I like him so much?
When was your birthday again?
My birthday?
The day you entered the orphanage?
When was it?
The day it snowed. December 29.
I see. It's still far away.
Where is the orphanage?
Where did you grow up
to look so beautiful?
Do you want to go there?
Really?
Thank you. Drive safe.
I'll come pick you up when you're done.
See you later. Go on in.
I'm so jealous.
I'm lonely.
You must be happy.
It's nice to have a boyfriend.
-Doctor!
-Doctor!
-Our Soon-yi…
-Soon-yi…
We removed her tumor
through surgery last time,
but it was too malignant
and it had already spread to her organs.
She's been holding out through chemo.
But now, she can only take painkillers.
I suggested that she stay here
because she couldn't breathe well.
They'll just have to come here every day.
She's 19, so she's like their daughter.
Hello.
How can I help you?
This way, please.
Would you like to go through
the adoption process?
They didn't forget again.
Who could it be?
Is someone I've been waiting for
going to come today?
My goodness.
Oh, my. Who are you? Why are you here?
Goodness. Come here.
Goodness.
It's okay.
Whose dog is this?
It's okay.
Goodness.
Is the owner not around?
My goodness.
Let's go inside.
How many years will I serve
if I say that I killed her?
Did you?
What if I say I did?
What do you mean?
I…
I went there that day.
I met Ms. Song that day.
What do you do?
I'm a desk consultant at an academy.
-Do you have siblings?
-I have a younger brother.
What are your hobbies?
-Spacing out at home.
-Who's your favorite celebrity?
My favorite celebrity?
I like Jennie.
Jennie.
Should I go?
No.
Il-yong.
Don't just keep asking questions.
Listen to her answer
and find topics to talk about.
Topics to continue the conversation.
You need to find things in common
to become curious about each other.
Yong-bok, ask some questions.
Next. Dong-gu.
I think it's the person who called
about a consultation earlier.
I'll get going then.
Good job.
Dong-gu, what's your hobby?
You, Do-ra.
-Your hobby is me?
-I want to get to know you.
Because you are interesting, Do-ra.
You're the worst of the three.
I'm the worst?
If you tell your blind date
she's your hobby when you just met her,
you think it'd make her heart race?
Not at all.
It's scary. It's creepy.
How can your hobby be her?
You'd only just met her.
I have a question.
What if Zo In-sung said the same thing?
Let's say the blind date was Zo In-sung.
What if he says his hobby is you, Do-ra?
That'd make my heart flutter.
But you're not Zo In-sung.
I'm flabbergasted.
-I'm totally flabbergasted.
-I'm totally flabbergasted.
What does Zo In-sung have that I don't?
I'm just like Zo In-sung.
I'm handsome with strong features.
Anyway, you're definitely not Zo In-sung.
Guys, I'm not Kim Tae-hee either.
We're not an exception who can be
forgiven for whatever we say.
We need to have a conversation
that suits the situation and the mood.
That way--
-Yes, Dong-gu?
-Ms. Ahn.
You're prettier than Kim Tae-hee.
To me, that is.
What is up with this man?
He keeps coming on to me.
ANGEL ORPHANAGE
-You're here.
-Hi. It's been so long.
-There.
-How have you been?
You look great.
You've become even prettier.
Hello.
Wait, he is…
Do you know each other?
I came here once with Detective Seo.
With Detective Seo? What for?
Well…
-Baek-ryeon!
-Baek-ryeon!
-Baek-ryeon!
-Baek-ryeon!
Hi!
-How have you been?
-Baek-ryeon!
-Did you bring gifts?
-Baek-ryeon!
-The gifts!
-Did you bring them?
You didn't even greet me,
and you're asking for gifts.
I'm hurt.
But I still brought gifts.
Follow me.
-Yes!
-Let's see.
Step back. Watch out.
Take it one by one.
Be careful.
Take them one by one in order.
Red light, green light.
You should come here.
The one with their hands up.
Red light, green light.
Red light, green--
Run!
What is this? No.
-I got it! Soccer!
-That's right!
Aren't your feet cold?
I'm good. What about you?
I'm good too.
Do a better job.
We shouldn't play around. We should hurry.
Should I try to do it faster?
CAPTAIN SEO JAE-HEE
Yes, Captain Seo.
I'm looking at them now.
But do I have to keep looking?
Why? Is something wrong?
I can't bear to watch them.
-I'm sure it's from here.
-Are you sure?
I'm sure it's this place.
The dog barks are coming
from your unit, right?
No, it's not us.
-I'm sure it's them.
-Yes.
I clearly heard it.
-It's them.
-Why are you lying?
Yes, you're right. It is our dog.
If you can't manage, then don't raise one.
I don't want to raise him either.
Would you like to take him?
What kind of nonsense is that?
You're so rude.
Stop with your nonsense.
Sorry. I'll be careful.
How ridiculous.
Seriously.
Dong-chil.
-Dong-gu. Get this off me right now.
-Dong-chil.
Release me. Hey.
Dong-chil, are you a good boy?
What? What's wrong?
Hey…
I told you to stay quiet.
Gosh. Darn it.
I told you both to stay quiet.
Just let me use the bathroom.
I relieved myself there too.
How can I relieve myself there?
If I can, then you can too!
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry,
so please don't do this, my friend.
My friend.
My dear friend.
The moment you put a chamber pot
in my room,
our friendship ended.
Dong-gu…
Dong-gu.
Shock therapy.
She needs shock therapy at this stage.
How?
You should make a confession,
then forget about her.
Forget about her?
Then why would I confess?
She's been walking the tightrope between
a lover and a friend for ten years.
It means she's enjoying it.
Do you think she doesn't know
how you feel about her?
She does. She definitely does.
And she's making full use of it.
She calls you when she needs to,
but she wouldn't date you.
She'd give you hope,
so you wouldn't leave her.
Will you keep living like that?
Why waste your 20s like that?
Because I like her.
You've wasted ten years already.
Just tell her how you feel.
That leaves two options.
She'll either hold on to you
or let you go.
If she holds on to you,
then you can date her.
If she lets you go,
then you'll stop wasting time on her.
How should I confess to her?
From now on, I'll only look at you.
I won't look at other women.
That crazy jerk…
Sorry? Did you say I was crazy?
You told me to confess my feelings.
No, that's not it.
Say whatever you want
from the bottom of your heart.
Ms. Ahn.
You're prettier than Kim Tae-hee.
Then…
she'll know that you're being sincere.
Come to think of it,
it was shock therapy.
Dong-gu, what's your hobby?
You, Do-ra.
Dong-gu, this guy…
He knows how to leave a good impression.
Gentle gaze.
He pretended like
he's never dated anyone before
but he may actually be a player.

1. NOT SAY HELLO
2. SLEEP IN
3. EAT LATE
4. NOT DO HOMEWORK
5. TALK BACK
6. NOT CLEAN
7. COMPLAIN
I killed her.
I thought he looked
a lot like the police officer from 1994.
So, he was his father.
I thought he was a bachelor.
A bachelor?
By the way,
what's your relationship with him?
Is he your boyfriend?
You must be happy.
It feels like a dream.
The fact that I can spend warm moments
with someone I like.
I'm sure it will be even warmer than now.
You'll be even happier.
Thank you.
About this…
ANGEL ORPHANAGE
OUR HOME FULL OF LOVE AND HOPE
Director Hong Ae-kyeong made it herself.
The director who went missing in 1993?
Yes, that's right.
She disappeared on the night
a fire broke out.
Director Hong hit the kids.
Quite a lot.
She hit them
for getting up five minutes late.
She hit them for
leaving a bit of food behind.
She even hit them for not smiling nicely.
Did she make them write
self-reflection essays too?
In a red notebook?
We tried reporting her in secret,
but nothing changed.
And she took that anger out on the kids.
I don't think it was 1993.
He probably wasn't a little kid back then.
At what age do kids
usually leave the orphanage?
19 years old.
When we turn 19 years old.
What about the kids
who left the orphanage?
Due to the fire in 1993,
the previous records were all burned.
ANGEL ORPHANAGE CHARITY EVEN
I had some business around here.
Is Kim Myeong-sik an orphan?
Kim Myeong-sik?
No, his parents live
in the same apartment complex.
Why would he be an orphan?
What is it?
Let's go to the detention center
where he is. Right now.
SEVEN SINS
CHILDREN SHOULD NEVER COMMI
Mr. Kim.
Mr. Kim!
Did you really kill Ms. Go Eun-seo?
If you confessed you did when you didn't,
you're committing a grave sin.
You're allowing the real culprit
to roam around freely.
-It's a puppy!
-A puppy!
How old is it?
How old is it?
-It's so cute.
-So cute.
-Let's go, kids.
-No, I don't want to!
It's time to go.
Let's go.
How adorable.
There's still one more case.
Jealousy.
That last case won't happen.
Because I'm in here.
What did you say?
Huh?
This place is…
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.
My goodness.
-My gosh.
-Here.
I called a cab, so it'll be here soon.
My goodness. I hope it comes soon.
SERVICE AND INFORMATION CENTER
He was a short guy.
So why did he…
That last case won't happen.
Because I'm in here.
He knows about the Seven Sins for Women.
What could he have meant?
An accomplice.
He's the accomplice. The short guy
Ms. Oh saw at the parking lot.
That jerk who was seen
at the convenience store.
He's an accomplice,
but Kim Myeong-sik made a confession.
Is he trying to take all the blame?
So why?
DISEASE
JEALOUSY
Jealousy.
If it's for that last one…
OH BAEK-RYEON
For the last one remaining…
I'll get going first.
Where are you going?
-I'm here.
-Hey.
Hello.
Dr. Lee, thank you for your hard work.
Thank you.
GUGI-DONG ANIMAL HOSPITAL
Dr. Oh.
Dr. Oh, what should we have for a snack?
What do you want to eat?
Do you crave anything?
I'm craving pizza.
But we had it yesterday.
Welcome.
Is it your first time here?
Good job.
Potato's guardian?
MY MAN
The number you have dialed…
Ah-rom.
Hang in there. My goodness.
My poor baby.
-It will be okay.
-There, there.
Detective Cheon Yeong-jae?
-My goodness!
-Jeong-ah!
Jeong-ah!
My daughter! My poor girl! My poor baby!
CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR
APPOINTMENT AS POLICE OFFICERS
I'll…
I'll catch him no matter what.
