GENIE, MAKE A WISH

"Make sure you are punished too, spirit."

That was already 20 years ago.

But no matter how long I wait, the punishment just doesn't come.

You should still be careful.

And watch what you say and do.

Quiet, you.

Why should I be careful?

I am the almighty Genie, after all.

Man, this is stressful.

The smell of this clay.

What the… You're that…

You're still alive?

Who are you?

How do you know the language of Goryeo? Are you from Goryeo?

Don't you remember me?

It's definitely you. You've been alive all this time?

I clearly remember seeing you die. Your breath just…

I'm sure of it.

Seeing those bite marks, it is you. Gee, you're a mess.

You're being rude.

I'm just really curious.

I'm actually a genie.

And we've met before. 20 years ago.

Back then, your final wish was my punishment.

But I'm just fine. What do you think?

Don't remember that either?

Dates for sale! Buy some dates!

Dates for sale!

Oh no.

My dates.

Oh dear.

You're bleeding.

You're more hurt than those dates.

What a thing to say!

You tripped me, didn't you?

What are you going to do about these?

What shall I do about this?

Do I fully corrupt her, seeing as she's survived?

Oh my, what a waste.

I asked what you're going to do about all these.

How about this? Payment for the dates.

These are on the house.

I hope you enjoy them.

Dates for sale!

Buy some dates!

Just look at you. You're well on your way to corruption.

You're already corrupt. Great, let's just push a little harder.

Dates for sale! Buy some dates!

I'm already having so much fun. Where do you live?

Where is my money?

My money's gone!

Take this.

Eat this.

I got very lucky today.

Please eat.

Thank you.

Be careful.

Don't touch me, you filthy slave girl.

I can't hear any of those words.

It's all so difficult.

I can't understand a word.

My goodness!

You live here?

How did you find your way here?

Go away. I'll get cast out if anyone sees.

Don't worry. Only you can see me.

Besides, no one seems to care about you at all.

Humans sure are shallow, aren't they?

They'll ostracize and judge you even if you're just a tad bit different.

Don't bad-mouth them.

They gave me work to do and a place to sleep.

Just hurry and get out of here before you get caught.

I'm just intrigued.

A human who used all her wishes for others.

One who even dared to mention me in her final wish.

Wow.

That's what my punishment was!

With no humans to corrupt for 20 years, I almost died of boredom.

That was my punishment!

You lived, so I never found a new master!

What are you talking about?

I told you I've never made wishes.

Well, well, playing dumb, are we?

You're in this foreign land with that face of a foreigner.

You may act resolute now, but you will eventually show your true colors.

Then you'll be corrupt in no time.

Did you say only I can see you?

Yes.

It's one of my main magical…

But why aren't you surprised?

Most humans are.

You said you're a ji-ne. We have centipedes in Goryeo too.

The elders said that a thousand-year-old centipede could wield magic.

I'm a genie, not a ji-ne.

So why did you ask if only you could see me?

It just seems like a shame.

You're so striking when you smile.

"Striking"?

That must be the highest of compliments in Goryeo.

Why did you come here?

Why else would I come to a camel market?

I'm here to buy a camel.

Why are you buying a camel?

So I can return

to Goryeo.

Are you looking for a camel? All the good ones are over there.

Stay here and don't interfere.

No! My gold coins! No!

Stop!

It's Shaytan! The Devil!

It's Shaytan!

Here.

You… really are Shaytan.

How could you kill a person?

He took your coins.

This only happened

because I was being too greedy in the first place.

I was paid too much for the dates.

I never want to see you again.

I returned the coins to their original owner.

And that jerk really did deserve to die.

You weren't the only one he wronged. I'm sure the other humans would be

happy.

Probably.

Hey, what am I supposed to do when that's how I am? I'm Shaytan.

When will you be

going to Goryeo?

Perhaps it would be faster to cross the Gobi Desert.

Want me to take you?

Do you

know the way?

Somewhat.

I once blocked the path.

I'll find out, so stop being mad.

Really?

Then I'll start saving for a camel again.

Please show me the way.

Why do you live like this anyway? Doesn't it make you angry?

I died and came back to life,

though I don't remember it.

I must have gained the scars on my body then.

There must be a reason I was kept alive in this world.

And so, I should live life to the fullest.

How foolish.

There's no such thing as the right wish.

To gain something, something else must be lost.

For someone to live, another must die.

Sade!

Khalid.

I bought this from a Khitan merchant.

He told me it was good for coughs.

Boil it and drink the water.

So you care for all the young and old?

Don't.

Humans betray those closest to them and never learn gratitude.

Isn't that right?

I see you are half human and half spirit.

Apparently, his father sings.

Are you Shadi's son?

You are sick and weak because you were born with a human body.

You're Iblis, aren't you?

Are you not the leader of spirits? Could you please make me better?

Please make me a complete spirit.

I know you can do anything.

This thread can bind spirits.

I will gladly give this to you as an offering.

I don't need it.

We may be related, but I simply cannot fulfill your request.

Let's go.

Hey, lie down to sleep. Why are you sleeping like this?

I told you to let me know before showing up.

Hey, how much clearer could I have let you know…

What are you making every night anyway? While losing sleep too.

Hanbok.

To wear on my journey back to Goryeo.

But I need to work during the day.

It's dark as night in here.

Follow me.

This is where you live?

Wow, it's like a palace.

You've never been in a palace.

Hey. I'm from Gaegyeong.

There are so many magnificent palaces there.

Just standing at the gates and seeing them from a distance, you know?

Their presence is just, you know?

So you've never been inside.

I got close enough to be practically inside.

What else is there?

How does it differ from here?

Goryeo has

four distinct seasons.

The summers are hot like it is here, but in fall, the leaves change color.

And in winter, white snow falls from the sky.

When the plum blossoms bloom through those snowflakes,

it's spring.

And when the plum blossoms wither,

the cherry blossoms bloom.

Cherry blossoms are really pretty.

Back in Goryeo,

we wrote our wishes and sent them out on boats down small streams.

We believed that the wishes would come true

if the boat reached the ocean.

Consider it the ocean at night. How far shall I send them for you?

Far, far away.

Beyond the place where the land meets the sky.

Far away.

All the way to Goryeo.

What did you write on those boats anyway?

Never you mind.

It looks like

it's raining stars.

PLEASE DO NOT LET THIS WANDERER STARVE

PLEASE DO NOT LET ANYONE FALL VICTIM TO THIS WANDERER'S STRIKING LOOKS

PLEASE LET ME RETURN TO GORYEO

It is Ejllael! He has come to take my soul.

I will guide your soul with these sacred wings.

Did you say you will guide my soul

with those sacred wings of yours?

Your soul will…

Ouch ouchy!

He says my soul will go ouch ouchy!

Ouch ouchy!

Hey, you could just ask nicely!

Why would you just pluck my feathers?

You, who came from Goryeo, were living as a slave. Serves you right.

They say, in Goryeo, there is a centipede that wields magic.

I shall go up against it when I get to Goryeo.

You wish upon stars.

She used up all her wishes on others and now makes wishes on silly stars.

She even wished for my sake.

To think that she is concerned for my body and my meals.

Why should a fleeting moment matter to one who is immortal?

While Iblis was tied to that girl's final wish…

he was more interested in her than in corrupting humans.

Strangely, he seemed far more excited

pondering what to feed her and how to make her smile

than when he was scheming how to corrupt

another human soul.

I know.

It's just so sad, Master.

I'm talking about how much of a damn fool Iblis was.

What am I to do if you find this upsetting?

I was too busy crying to see that, Master.

Would you please repeat yourself?

Look carefully.

Get out!

Can't you find us some good clams?

You keep bringing ones full of these rocks.

Just throw it out.

That's hot.

When will you complete that garment? The Goryeo one.

It's not easy to find the right fabric.

-But I've almost finished. -Can't you make it on the way?

Let's leave after eating.

Really? Can we really go now?

What about your lamp?

I'll pray that he hurls it with all his power to Goryeo.

You who are singular and omnipotent.

You are benevolent and noble.

You are also merciful

and wise, and, well…

You're also…

You look incredibly desperate.

Hey, you're…

You're glowing.

It's a new master. But how?

You were my last master,

and I should still be tied to your final wish.

How is it I have a new master?

I'm not quite sure, but isn't this a good thing?

You said you were really bored with no new master in 20 years.

Maybe you're right.

Well, then, I'll quickly go and corrupt them.

We meet at last, Iblis.

Because of you, I have lived the past two decades

as an oppressed foreigner.

It's Iblis! It's Shaytan!

Where are you going? Cast the Goryeo bitch aside too!

-Run! -Help!

So it seems I missed one.

I wish to possess more than anyone born of this land.

So my first wish

is for you to make me the richest person in the world.

How predictable.

Your wish has been fulfilled.

You called me?

I have decided on my second wish, Genie.

Kill all those who looked down on me. Let them die in agony.

You really are Shaytan.

How could you kill a person?

Your wish has been fulfilled.

Dates for sale! Buy some dates!

Dates for sale! Buy some dates!

Dates for sale!

Are you…

I got very lucky today.

Please eat.

Thank you.

Yes, it is I. Do you remember me?

You gave me the sweetest of dates.

Now I will give you everything you want.

Garments and precious jewels. A big house and countless servants.

What do you say?

I do not want anything

I did not earn by my own effort.

And I will soon be leaving for my hometown.

You don't want it? And you're leaving, you say?

Now that I am looking down at you, it is crystal clear.

You are that slave girl I bought to use as animal feed.

And you dared to take pity on me?

How does it look?

It's beautiful.

I had already finished making it.

But I figured there was a chance you couldn't leave this place.

Because of the wishes.

I don't know the way, and I couldn't just leave you behind.

It's Muttalib's final wish.

That means

we really are leaving tonight, right?

For Goryeo.

Yes. Let's go.

I shall go to see the four seasons of Goryeo,

where spring arrives when winter snowflakes melt

and the cherry and plum blossoms bloom.

If you can't find me, just call my name.

The name for you to call me

is Iblis.

Iblis.

Is your surname "Lee"?

Is that a good thing?

Let's say it is, then.

So let's hear it. Your final wish.

After claiming revenge and wealth beyond measure,

I have found that some things remain priceless.

My last wish is her complete submission.

Make that bitch stay by my side for the rest of her life.

Your wish has been fulfilled.

A heart that won't bow for all the gold in the world?

I'd like to see who this is.

Why are you…

Why are you here?

Why the hell are you here?

I see. You have come crawling back!

Of course, who could resist all the world's riches?

Bring her to me right now!

Why is Shaytan…

Stop him! Stop Shaytan!

What is this thing? Take it off! Take it off me right now!

Since you refused my kindness, I am proving my thread's worth.

This is my thread's…

use and power.

Hunbish?

You're still alive?

So the boy who owned this body was named Hunbish?

Khalid.

You're Khalid.

How come you're…

How can this be?

Look! I've bound Shaytan!

And this foreign girl loves another man.

She loves Shaytan!

What?

You didn't come for me.

You came for him!

Get the bitch to her feet!

Let go of me.

Let go!

Make that bitch stay by my side for the rest of her life.

So this was the wish that I granted.

No.

I'm coming. I'll come to you.

If I can't have her, no one can!

No!

No!

I'm coming.

No.

Please, you can't.

In Goryeo…

No.

Everyone has four lives.

Whichever life it may be…

come and visit me in one of them.

No, please. Just hang in there. Wait.

Just hold on.

I am Genie, the lamp spirit.

I shall grant you three wishes.

Please, I request any of you to become my master

and use one of your wishes to save this girl.

I beg you!

Whatever it is you desire,

I will fulfill your second and third wishes.

I will do it.

Make me the richest man in the world.

Richer than Muttalib!

Please, no.

All right. Now, please.

Before this girl takes her last breath…

Please!

It works. It really works!

-But this is not enough. -No.

I want more gold. More!

No, this can't be.

Please. This is your final wish.

Please use your last wish to save this girl.

Please!

I want more gold, Genie.

Fill this entire city with gold!

No, this can't be. Please.

We want gold too!

Shower us with gold!

This can't be.

I'm sorry…

for leaving you all alone.

No!

This can't be! No, please!

Please, no!

No!

No, this can't be!

This can't be. Bring her back!

Bring her back now! Please!

No!

Do you realize now how arrogant you were?

At long last…

that girl's

final wish…

was fulfilled.

This…

was my punishment.

I was almost sentenced to an eternal life,

but thankfully, faced death in another body.

Then I became a wandering soul

until I found you and my sister.

Your punishment has not yet come to an end,

and you two are bound, even in this life, by three wishes.

That was…

That was my doing yet again.

And so, I return this sad and beautiful story to you.

Let your punishment for saving me be this.

Whatever her final wish may be, protect her,

the one who was born to be wicked yet still remains righteous.

It is well overdue, but I apologize.

You were also one of the more admirable humans that I've ever met.

May your soul…

find its way to peace.

Whatever the punishment, I will take it.

I will accept it willingly.

I hope with all I have.

Deliver whatever punishment you see fit for my arrogance.

I hope and plead.

Of all I possess,

take away anything you see as more than I deserve.

I hope against hope.

Just once.

Please, just once.

Allow me to visit one of her lives.

Deliver whatever punishment you must,

and take away whatever you must.

But just once…

Please, just once, in whichever of her lives…

Whatever the punishment, I will take it.

I will accept it willingly.

Deliver whatever punishment you see fit for my arrogance.

Of all I possess…

What are you saying? Pan-geum came where?

She didn't come from anywhere.

She never went to Hawaii in the first place!

Yes, is that you, Chang-sik?

Hurry over to Pan-geum's house!

Just come when I tell you to!

Follow me!

-What is going on? -Where are we going?

Oh my! What happened? What's all the fuss about?

-Welcome. -Welcome.

Grand…

Mi-ju.

What is it? Why are you crying?

Has something happened?

My wisdom tooth just hurts so much.

I'll take a look at her.

You absolute witch!

Mrs. Park.

Mrs. Park!

Hey! Where have you run off to?

Oh Pan-geum! Come out here right now!

If you have nothing to hide, come out this instant and say so!

Heung-rye, please.

Goodness me!

What in the world did you sacrifice to get that way?

What in the world did you sacrifice to get so young all on your own?

-Come on. -Mrs. Park!

Nobody's even home! What's gotten into you?

-Let go of me! -Please just try to calm down!

Let go of me!

I'm telling you, Oh Pan-geum must be using witchcraft or something

because she's become a young lady. You hear?

Hey! I want to be young again too! Me too, okay?

-No one's getting younger! -Get out of there.

-Let go of me! -You're not making any sense.

Deacon An, just stay back. Please, it's dangerous.

Deacon? Is there even a god?

If there is, there is no way that he would let me become so miserable!

My old age makes me miserable!

Goodness me, I got so damn old in the blink of an eye!

Lord have mercy!

Right, this bitch. That's where she'll be.

-The fields! -Where are you going now?

Don't get out.

-I'll deal with the witch myself! -Chang-sik, please get up!

She'll be in the onion field!

You'll get yourself hurt!

Calm down. Please calm down!

Pan-geum is in Hawaii. Why would she be in the onion field?

Shut up!

Heung-rye.

You damn bastard! Get out!

Get out of the car!

-Get out! -Get out!

Get out of the car!

What the hell are you doing, punk?

Get out--

Is this the police?

I've just run someone over.

Ishrun. You know what to do, right?

I think she's dead.

We're just outside

Ms. Ki Ka-young's house.
