GENIE, MAKE A WISH

So your point is?

I know what I want.

I've thought of something I don't want taken from me. Especially by death.

Death?

I'll make my second wish.

Hold your horses.

Think about it before you make your wish.

Take a calm, hard look at your deepest desires.

Do you really want it enough to sell your soul?

Make my grandma young.

The same age as me.

This

is my second wish.

But not right away because the cremation's tomorrow.

So make it happen

exactly 72 hours from now.

You're scheduling your wish?

Hawaii?

Yes. Let's go to Hawaii together.

In three days. For a change of scenery.

Three days? But if we're traveling so far, we'd need--

I've made all the preparations. You just need to show up.

I've already bought the tickets. Non-refundable.

Already? Oh my.

Then I'd better…

Well, we wouldn't want these to go to waste.

We have no choice but to go.

Goodness me.

Is this real or just a dream?

So go and brag to all the other grannies.

Tell everyone in the village, okay?

All right.

CHEONGPUNG VILLAGE HALL

Hawaii?

Yes.

I insisted it wasn't necessary,

but my Ka-young had already bought the tickets.

She said I needed a change of scenery.

I couldn't exactly say no.

Surely she can't be making that much money from an auto shop.

I guess she saved everything she could.

Oh boy.

You must be cashing in all your luck late in life.

I'm so jealous.

So when do you leave?

You'll need to pack some kimchi and side dishes.

The day after tomorrow.

I was actually thinking of heading to the market today to make preparations.

Do you need any groceries or anything?

She's actually going to Seoul later today.

For your doctor's appointment, remember?

You're always telling me to go to the doctor.

None of you kids ever mention Hawaii.

All right.

Let's get started with today's class.

All together now. Stretch it out, nice and long.

Stretch.

To the right.

To the right.

Branch Manager Kang.

Hello, Manager Kang.

Apparently, Ka-young is taking Pan-geum to Hawaii.

She's had a tough life, but her later years are treating her well.

If you want to go, you could go with your son.

Goodness, there's no need.

I shouldn't waste what little money he earns.

I'll prepare for the rites with your sister-in-law,

so don't you worry.

All right.

I can't attend anyway.

I have to go to Seoul to see Jeong-hwa.

Why? Did something happen to her?

Where are you?

Where else would I be? I'm at the college exam prep academy.

I'm at your place right now. Do you really think I didn't check there?

I'm canceling your lease. Did you keep me away just to start this crap?

Do you know what the hell I just found here?

You're such a pain!

Who are you to snoop around my room?

I'm your mom.

Do you even go to class?

Right, I wanted to talk to you about that.

I'm not taking the college exams or going to college.

You're not going to college?

What could you do without a degree?

Tell me.

What is it? Go on, tell me!

I can make it big without a degree!

Do you even realize just how much of a miracle this is--

I'm hanging up!

Hello?

Yoo Jeong-hwa!

Why is this happening?

Seriously…

We used to be so close…

when I was a supermarket cashier.

My daughter and I.

If you miss those times, simply go back.

You still have one last wish.

I'm saying you can take it all back.

I can't use it like that.

It'd be a waste.

I know.

1,247 seconds, 1,248 seconds,

1,249 seconds, 1,250 seconds.

What the… Why isn't he showing up?

What is he doing?

Can't you tell the time? Ever heard of being punctual?

Ten seconds to go for my wish. Is it done or not?

Can't you tell the time?

We still have three seconds.

Your second wish has also been fulfilled.

Grandma?

Gosh, what time is it? Is it already time to go to the airport?

I haven't even finished packing yet.

What's this? How did this come undone?

We should take some gochujang and kimchi, right?

Grandma.

You were this pretty?

What are you saying?

I'm all puffy because I crashed right after eating.

What's with my voice?

You're so much prettier than I imagined you'd be.

It's too early for that.

Who do you think you got those looks from? You got them from me.

Let's see.

Shouldn't we at least boil some eggs to eat before we go?

Goodness me.

Who is that? Is she a friend of yours?

No. You know Min-ji's my only friend.

Then who is that?

I swear I recognize her from…

She looks so familiar…

What the…

Is…

Is this a dream?

Something like that.

Do you know who it is now?

I know who this is.

This sprightly little thing is…

If you're going to faint, fall to your left.

This young lady, who once pranced around with the whole town at her fingertips, is…

If I wore some designer clothes from Ka-young's wardrobe

and some of her pointy heels…

Goodness gracious. Dear Lord. Buddha.

Gods of heaven and earth. Virgin Mary.

Thank you.

It wasn't any of them.

Think more Middle East.

I've figured it out. It was that thing.

Your notebook. Those wishes.

-That's right. -Really?

So there's no going back, right?

What do you want with my room?

Which one is Chanel?

Really?

So a lot happened overnight in this tiny village.

Is it me, or have you been working out unusually hard these days?

It seems I'll be spreading my wings more often.

They keep tearing my clothes.

So you intend to fly naked?

7,000 liters of water go into making one garment.

So you're actually going to fly naked?

Well? Do you have something to report?

Ms. Ki Ka-young has now made her second wish.

A righteous one at that.

Congratulations.

Good intentions don't always lead to good outcomes.

We can't let our guard down.

Where is Iblis?

Yeah, what?

Making her grandma young?

What about it? You call that righteous?

It's fine.

Don't sweat the small stuff.

Just look at Kang Im-seon's eyes. Perfectly wicked.

Hey.

You're the best.

But why do you keep sitting like this?

My damn back.

Why are you intruding on someone else's lamp?

Did you make an appointment when you crashed my rooftop?

So Irem sang like a canary again.

Hey. I get you're excited that Ki Ka-young made a righteous wish,

but her first wish was enough for me to slit her throat.

So, one who was born on Wednesday,

don't interrupt my precious contemplation and get lost, will you?

Contemplation, my ass. You were rattled and talking to yourself.

Satan, who was born on Thursday.

Rattled? Me?

You don't have a clue. Once you see Gu Bo-gyeong and Eom Sang-tae…

It's written all over their faces. They will be corrupted.

Oh, and the mutt?

Come on, you already know.

I said stop disrupting the human world.

If a dog becomes a man, is that the end of it?

What about people's memories if someone becomes young overnight?

Gold and riches? You know it won't work.

You can't deposit over ten million without providing a source!

Your methods? They're so old-school.

You no longer have a use in this world.

Even so,

how could you say such…

You're gassing me, you know.

"Gaslighting."

Sade, that jerk!

What will you do if I prove that I do have a use?

Mr. Genie?

Where are you?

Do your best to prove it, then.

Everyone will start seeking you out now.

As long as you're not seeking me out.

Yes, I'm coming, Mutt.

Where are you right now?

Help me live like an actual person.

I look like a person.

But as for what I can do…

I can't do anything.

That's your second wish?

It's the same as your first.

What's with the manner of speech? Is it a shtick?

My dad

was a foreign dog.

Anyway,

I need money. And ID.

I must have money and ID.

I also find modern society so hard.

And I suddenly have five wish-makers.

I'm just as baffled as you.

All right. How about this?

I'll turn you into someone who doesn't need ID.

What kind of person would that be?

The kind of person who pays

to hire people who do have IDs.

GOBLIN STATIONERY

The key here is wet hair.

A man who'd rather boil to death in a suit steps out of the driver's seat.

And you?

You're in the back seat.

Hey. Look over there.

-Where? -Damn.

Looks like the fucking top dog.

How did that motherfucker end up with a car like that?

I'm damn jealous.

He probably worked like a dog.

I wish I had a dogshit ton of money to flaunt too.

He's coming this way.

Hey, you punks.

You once kicked a dog in this alleyway, didn't you?

Are you familiar with cocker spaniels?

You mean one of the top three unhinged breeds?

So what if we are? Oh, are you that dog?

Then I guess you know why I'm doing this too?

The hell?

Hey, are you okay?

-This motherfucker! -You crazy fuck!

Hey, you son of a bitch!

For your troubles.

And don't ever mess with dogs again.

I'll be watching you.

Hey. The money. Pick up the money.

Just pick it up already.

Damn it.

I can't believe your passcode is actually 1004.

Damn it.

Iblis, you satanic asshole!

Grandma?

Grandma?

A leather jacket in this heat?

Chanel.

Grandm…

I'm not out of breath. Not even close to exhausted.

My hip is like new.

Grandma, watch out!

You good, son?

You should respect your elders, young lady.

"Young lady"?

"Young lady"?

"Young lady"!

Grandma's going to need some rules too.

Aren't you hot?

No way.

I'm at the perfect temperature. Why?

Everything I say now is a rule you must follow, no matter what.

First, never answer this phone.

Never. Not with this new nightingale voice of mine.

I won't answer.

New cell phone, okay. What else?

By the way…

Second, if anyone asks why you're here?

For a six-month countryside stay.

Third. From where?

-Hadong? -Hey, Ki Ka-young?

But Hadong's out in the country too.

Say you're from Cheongdam, Seoul. And your name…

I already picked one.

Lee Mi-ju. Suits me, doesn't it?

Great. Fourth. Drop that dialect from now on.

This is between him, you, and me.

So you need to stick to the rules and not get caught. Got it?

Come on, now. Do you think I'm some nitwit?

When I was young…

Hold up, I am young now.

The thing is, I just want to know what's on the menu for dinner tonight--

You don't even need to eat. Why are you pigging out?

Grandma. Use a Seoul dialect.

Goodness gracious!

That scared the daylights out of me!

Oh, sorry. That freaks me out every time.

Anyway, when I was young,

I was also pretty chic and had big dreams.

Do you still need to go to the salon to enter the Miss Korea pageant?

You have a monolid. You wouldn't make the cut.

Don't think about anything else. Just go and do something about your hair.

Shouldn't I get eyelid surgery first?

So stingy about food.

I don't even eat that much.

Gosh, this young man sure got here early.

He looks strong too. He'll probably get picked first.

Move over a little. Scooch over.

-Thanks. -Go on, scooch over.

There you go. That's it.

-Wait, I… -Just a little more. That's it.

They'll fall off.

Okay, I need people to work the cabbage patch.

First 15.

-Me! -Hey, me!

What are you doing? Are you all uncomfortable?

Me too!

I'm very uncomfortable. Me!

Here, me!

I'm extremely uncomfortable!

Come and have your meals!

Enjoy your meals.

-I know, right? -Did someone go buy rice wine?

-He's on his way to buy it. -Right away?

He's off to get it.

Wow, this is…

-Goodness, thank you. -Oh, thank you.

Eating without paying? Seriously?

Thanks to you, we can call it a day now.

Here.

-What is this? -Your pay for the day.

I get paid too?

-Thank you. -Incredible!

I thought I was going to die.

You here? Go on, sit.

Scooch over. Come on.

-Hey. -You're here again!

Hi, Mr. Kim.

What is this?

What a fucking pain in the ass.

You should have just died.

Who are you?

Where did you come…

Did you see that?

Yes, I saw it all. But that's not important.

I am Genie, the lamp spirit. I shall grant you three wishes.

No reviving or going to the future.

Anything besides that, your wish is my command.

Mister, are you drunk or something?

Just go on your merry way.

And know you're only alive because you're a guy.

You can see me?

Man, I was in a rush and came as myself!

I was first in line too. Now hurry, what's your first wish?

What a joke.

Who the fuck let this moron out this early?

You're a genie?

Then bring this back to life.

Thank you so much for your prompt wish.

It's possible because it's still breathing.

Look at it go.

Shall we keep it rolling and get to your second wish?

Fuck!

This is real?

That's seriously fucked up!

You should have told me that it was real!

I just blew a wish on nothing, you motherfucker!

You fucking moron.

If you're a genie, that makes me your master.

Treat me like it, damn it!

Why should I? That's a misconception.

I may grant wishes, but I can also have a nasty temper.

Like this.

Just a moment. Please.

So that means I have two wishes left, right?

Wait, where did the lamp go? Why can't I see it?

The lamp will appear when you desire something enough to wish for it.

Give it careful thought before summoning me.

And don't bother trying to control me, you lowly human.

And there's no point trying to remember my face.

I'll look different to you anyway.

Fucking piece of shit!

Good morning, Homies!

We're up early today to plant some lettuce.

A lot of you struggle with insomnia, don't you?

I have bad insomnia too.

So I'll grow these and "roar!"

Gobble them all up.

All right, lettuce seedlings need to be planted 20 centimeters apart.

Let's plant one here, and…

Another one over here.

One here.

YOU'RE GOING TO KEEP ME UP AT NIGHT! YOU'RE KILLING ME! - ZOOM IN MORE!

I think we'll end today's live here. See you again when the lettuce has grown!

Hey, what? Why are you…

What was that? They were loving it!

-You zoomed in again, didn't you? -What?

Well, you know, you leaned over, and I was just filming.

What did you say? You sick bastard.

Here. I present to you my left cheek.

Come on, they say to love thy enemies.

-You sly dog. You deserve a smack! -Hey, come on. Quit it!

I've looked into it, and you know that sleazy guy?

This country has a university that's really good in terms of science.

That's where the two met.

Really? What did they do?

They were in the waltz club.

What?

Waltz?

How unexpected.

I didn't think you'd be into waltzing.

I wasn't interested at first,

but a hometown friend of mine suggested it,

saying it's better to break down beats than heads.

You sure are quirky.

By the way, I saw you turned down the President's Scholarship again.

Thanks to you, I get to study abroad. Maybe a research lab in the Arab League.

Thanks.

Don't mention it.

I'm loaded, so I could pay for the trip myself.

Didn't you say you were from a small town somewhere in Chungcheong-do?

Our chili crops are booming.

Man, you're so…

-I'm the best here, right? -Yeah.

-Are you okay? -There's nothing there.

-What's with you? -Damn it.

What's wrong?

You sure did fall over in a very quirky manner.

-What's gotten into you? -What is it?

Is your face okay?

That's where you fell, right?

Who is this bastard--

Come on, you're hurt. Don't bother trying to answer.

Does it hurt a lot? Did you break this bone here?

We have guests.

What's with this savage place?

Will you even get a word in?

It sure seems like… How should I put it?

Not like an ordinary home.

Right. It really does draw you in.

Don't be a scaredy pants.

Right.

You sure have a large family.

What? Are you all brothers?

How patriotic of your parents. Are we still waiting on the adults?

Can I help you?

Right, I guess introductions are a little overdue.

I'm the chief of Cheongpung Village--

I asked if I can help you.

Well, we heard you'd moved in,

but you haven't shown your face.

You need to complete resident forms, but we didn't bring enough.

We didn't know your family was so large.

Local village news is posted regularly on the Band channel,

so make sure you're subscribed.

Punch your number in.

Goodness, I'm so forgetful. I almost waited to ask you next year.

-Your name is? -It's Jung Jun-u.

Hey, give him your number.

I wasn't done talking over here…

What was that?

What are you doing?

Protecting Grandma.

It all rides on keeping this quiet. See if the screen's getting an image.

Is that your third wish?

If you're not going to help, piss off.

Is that your third wish?

Why are you on about wishes again?

I grew up to be so pretty with no scars.

When I was eight, you told me not to get hurt.

Haven't you heard of white lies?

All lies are bad. They steal chances to grow.

Is that why you're working so hard to install security cameras?

Because you're so honest, Ki Ka-young?

Hey, why aren't you barking at me? Huh?

I swear this is the spot. Where is it?

Darn it.

The money isn't there.

It hasn't been for ten years.

You startled me, you brat.

I nearly had a heart attack.

Unlikely. Your heart's young now.

I dug up all the money you buried and donated it.

What?

How did you know about it?

Wait. All of it? There was so much.

-Just the starting amount. -Just the starting amount?

So you made some money off it?

Hand it over. Let's split it 50-50.

Even grandparents get paid to babysit these days, you know.

Half would be way too much.

I've made a killing with it in stocks.

Stocks?

That thing you had me sign?

Aggressive investing as a mere high schooler?

I saw all the stocks you bought skyrocketing

and thought you were possessed or something.

But then you used that money to pay my college tuition,

and you became a god-like figure to my mom.

I thought to myself, "You're actually someone's god."

"How awesome."

"I'm finally escaping this town. How exciting!"

Are you done eating?

It just came out, so of course not. Not by a long shot.

What are you staring at anyway? Is something going on?

I want to hurry home.

Why?

Because of that jerk?

I told you not to get too serious with some jerk you don't know.

Hey, what are you doing here?

Didn't you go to Hawaii with Pan-geum?

Something came up, so I couldn't go,

but Grandma didn't want to waste the ticket.

She went on her own so she wouldn't waste the swimsuit she'd bought.

Alone?

And why isn't she answering her phone?

It's a long flight, a different time zone, and with no roaming, no news is good news.

Grandma went to Hawaii? Alone?

Goodness, she's always so damn tactless.

You could've given me the spare ticket.

What use is an unused ticket?

Pack up a large to go for me.

That one's just incapable of thinking about others.

No wonder no one speaks well of you.

Right. To go.

I'll get the rest of this to go.

-I'll eat this at home. -Then what about me?

I'm still eating.

SOYEON SALON

Move!

Hey, watch out!

Hey, jackass! It's illegal to ride scooters on sidewalks!

I saw your face, you know.

Are you all right?

Goodness me, young lady!

Min-ji, you really take no nonsense…

do you, miss?

Do you know me?

You own the dental clinic over there.

You're quite famous.

I'm Lee Mi-ju, and I'm here for a six-month countryside stay.

I read Smile Dental Clinic's a must when visiting Cheongpung,

so I was just thinking about when to go.

You were?

Please do. Come whenever.

But judging by that smile just now, you don't have any teeth to fix.

Holy smokes. My teeth must have gotten younger too.

You must be from Gyeongsang-do.

Where are you staying?

Well, I…

I'm sure we'll bump into each other again, don't you think?

If fate would have it.

Well, sure.

And if you're going to get your hair done…

You have an excellent jawline,

so a simple blowout could add some character

while keeping your volume.

A blowout? Does she realize how much that costs?

I could do that myself at home. Why would I come to a salon?

Shall we, then?

I heard you have something to say.

It's nothing major.

You were classmates with Ms. Ki Ka-young, right?

We weren't close, so…

What's for lunch today?

You may not have been close, but you're not complete strangers, right?

Must I really spell it out?

Do I really need to be doing this? I should be home by now.

All right, look. You know our new pension package?

The only VIP we have who can comfortably afford that package

is Ms. Ki Ka-young, you know?

You could go and see her and do some… you know?

Can't you take some initiative for a change?

I'll think about it.

Now is not the time to say you'll think about it!

I've already done all the thinking for you.

Work it out over the weekend, all right?

A kettle?

Who the hell used this thing that's a bitch to clean?

What is this?

Is this micro dust or what?

I am Genie, the lamp spirit.

I shall grant you three wishes. Make them.

No bringing back the dead.

No traveling to the future.

-Anything besides that-- -A genie?

Wait, I'm not quite done explain…

I honestly had faith, you know.

I truly believed that a day like this would come.

I haven't had such a quick response in some time.

I'll make a wish.

For my first wish…

Ki Ka-young, she runs an auto shop.

And?

GU BO-GYEONG JUNE 20, 2024

MADE HER FIRST WISH

All right. What was Gu Bo-gyeong's wish?

Tell me quick. I need to go get a refund.

-I'm even dressed for the occasion. -Dressed for a refund?

I got a used spanner set, but the fourth one's missing.

I really like the number four.

I won't allow it.

Blood on white clothes. Now that'd be pretty.

So hurry up and tell me.

What did Gu Bo-gyeong wish for?

Give me all the money that's in Ki Ka-young's account.

You want to be rich like Ki Ka-young?

No. That's not it.

I want all the money that's in Ki Ka-young's account.

Every last cent.

I see.

You want Ki Ka-young's misfortune.

What should I do?

It is done.

Really?

DEPOSIT, KI KA-YOUNG 10,000,000 WON

And your second wish?

Wait, just a moment.

I don't have to make it right away, do I?

For now…

I just want to cherish this moment.

Ki Ka-young, who said humans are kind, has appeared in another's wish.

Still believe in humans?

It does make me angry how she singled me out.

But a bet is still a bet.

Kang Im-seon, Eom Sang-tae, and Gu Bo-gyeong.

I think I'll be winning this bet.

WANTED EVERYTHING IN KI KA-YOUNG'S ACCOUNT, EVERY LAST CENT

Yes.

It does seem to be heading that way.

So just stay still.

What are you doing?

You asked to be taken care of. So I'm doing just that.

I can't do this if I lose.

Boy, my dear Lee Beul-li is warm.

My darling Satan sure is warm.

My dear Iblis is so warm.

I've been curious for a while.

Why doesn't that hourglass flow? Doesn't that mean it has no purpose?

Because it's a coffin, not a clock.

That's you in there. I was locked up with a handful of you.

A coffin?

So a coffin can actually be this tiny.

Damn, I got mine down to a size five Korea Post box.

We were so warm just now.

Are you seriously flash-freezing me out?

Did you hold ancestral rites for me?

Cast the Goryeo bitch aside too!

Please.

What is it?

So it really was me.

The laughing girl in my dreams.

I've dreamed about this place.

The decor is a little different,

but it was definitely here.

I was laughing here.

What are you talking about?

You've never been in here. Not once in the past.

Then did I see the future?

It was definitely me.

I was smiling. Like this.

That creepily?

Where did you hide my toolbox?

You should've taken it in.

Even if there are issues, I'll need to order parts, so I can't fix it right away.

It's all right. Just do a regular checkup.

Wait here. I need to go to the bank quickly.

Look away. I don't like it when people watch me.

Is it okay for an adult to speak so harshly to a child?

You think being young gives you a pass?

Go sit over there and read your book.

I've already finished it.

HISTORY OF GORYEO

In Goryeo times, Arabia was called Abbasid, and the two had close ties.

But the exchanges stopped after the year 1040.

I wonder why.

Did someone block the path?

It wasn't me.

Do you know "Twin Flower Shop"? The Goryeo-era song?

They say the foreign man in the song was actually an Arabian merchant.

If he came all the way to Goryeo from Arabia,

there must be people who traveled from Goryeo to Arabia, right?

Ask the Internet, not the auto shop.

What is it now?

Hey, part-timer!

Did you call me?

Watch the shop for a bit.

Those are some of my favorite heels!

Wait.

Let's see.

Come on. What's wrong with this thing?

If you're getting coffee, this one's good.

So we did run into each other. Like fate.

It's such a small town.

You go first.

So you weren't wondering what to drink. Haven't you used a kiosk before?

Well, about that…

So you always had someone to do it for you?

Who were the jerks who did it all for you?

This coffee tastes better with an extra shot.

Why are you laughing?

Because I'm grateful, and you're cute.

That's a pretty dangerous thing to say.

You straightened your hair. It's pretty.

It's not pretty at all.

It's… Oh!

Maybe it's because my clothes are doing all the work.

Your clothes

are a no.

What?

Oh gosh.

What are you doing?

Keeping an eye on Grandma.

But she keeps laughing.

Look.

True joy.

Why is that?

They grow up so fast.

Damn it.

She should just live with Min-ji, then.

By the way,

about that thing where you show me care.

What are the rules for that?

Is it the time, the place,

the day, or the outfit?

Does it matter?

I feel like trash, so don't talk to me.

Come on.

No, that's not it!

Seriously.

That's not it!

Iblis!

Why aren't they coming out?

You, come with me.

You completely emptied my safe

and gave that huge amount of money

to that mutt.

You told me to consider modern systems.

That was the only money that was free from modern-day systems.

And he's not a mutt.

His dad's actually from England and has quite the pedigree.

Why gouge out the angels' eyes?

Isn't that how the painting was originally?

Originally? Originally!

You know what it took to restore it?

I can't take it anymore.

Deary me.

Iblis!

Please.

What could it be? The sword?

-Please. -The reaping hook?

-Please. -The axe?

Please.

I must have asked for a sword that can cut a head clean off. Yes.

Why would you come to my house?

Don't tell me you came for my grandma.

If so, you're dead.

You may be the lamp's master, but you can't kill me.

-And I'm here to see you. -Me?

So I'm dying?

Don't worry about that.

Not for today, at least.

I know you made your second wish.

What does that have to do with you?

I thought I might help you

decide on your final wish.

Do you know the reason Iblis

wants to kill you?

Because I locked him up in his lamp.

So he wants to get revenge.

That's right.

Then what might be the reason you died?

Aren't you curious…

about what happened?

Won't you come with me…

to the moment you died?
