[sighs]

[sighs]

You need to stick around for centuries more

and keep protecting the innocent.

You're an angel, after all.

Although it's a secret only I know.

[sighs]

[Mirr] Chief, look at this. Bangwool would love it, right?

[trader] Take a look around.

-Buy a pair of beoseon. -[Taesan] Right.

Come on. You barely even looked.

I did. They are pretty.

Since Bangwool sleeps most of the winter and hardly goes outside,

I thought I would get her one.

Can you not help me out?

Sure, but I do not think those are earrings.

Get that one. There, I helped.

Get her that one.

[scoffs, sighs] Forget it. You are terrible at this.

[Taesan] What do you mean?

I have been out here shopping for hours because of you.

-Help me pick one. -[grunts]

[villager] Goodness, no!

-[Mirr] What is going on? -What is that?

-[bandit] It is not here either. -[clamoring]

[Mirr] What is going on?

[clamoring continues]

[Mirr] Is there a fight or what?

[breathing shakily] Please spare my life.

I will give you whatever you want.

Money is what I want. Bring me everything you made today!

-Enough, you goons! -[bandit] I got dirt on my shoes.

-What now? -That is my hard-earned money.

If you want it, you will have to kill me first.

[laughs]

I like you better than that weakling.

I did not know there were still bandits left in Hanyang.

Chief, they might get hurt.

-We should intervene. -Stop.

You are not to get involved. I will handle this.

Hold these and hang back.

-We will not give you a single penny. -[bandit] Seriously, lady?

Okay, fine.

I should drag your pretty ass with me instead.

-Get over here. -You cannot!

-[Taesan] You scoundrels! -What?

"Scoundrels"?

[breathing shakily]

What now?

Move along if you do not want to get hurt.

Who are you, Gilgamesh?

Gilgamesh, my foot.

Do not Gilga-mess with me.

You deserve a good punch.

Boys, get him.

[♪ dramatic music plays]

-[grunts] -[groans]

Quit standing around. They deserve a good beating.

Those bastards!

-Hold on. -Do not push!

[grunts]

-What? -What was that?

[breathing heavily]

[grunts, groaning]

That hurts! [groans]

[Taesan] It will hurt more on that side since that is where the liver is.

Keep causing trouble like this,

and you will cross paths with me again.

-Of course. I will be kind from now on. -Get lost.

Goodness, my liver.

[villager] Who is that lady?

[villager 2] What was that?

A gust of wind shot out from her hands.

[villager 2] How did they get sent flying?

I told you to stay put.

[villagers] How did she do that? Was that her?

-Goodness me. -Hurry.

-Come on. -[villager] I cannot believe it.

[Taesan] Pick these up.

Let us go. Come on.

[owl hoots]

[Wonseung] What brings you here so late?

We were so thankful for your help today, so we brought some food and drinks.

-Hmm? -[Wonseung] Ah.

Where is Chief?

He is with Marok in the guest room.

-Let us call him out. -Chief, come out here!

Chief, we have guests!

What is this about?

This way, please.

We brought you some food and drinks.

It is not much, but please accept it

as our token of gratitude.

We are good, so please enjoy it yourselves.

-We are grateful, that is all. -He is right.

Please accept it, if only for us.

[groans] We even brought some fancy booze.

Goodness.

It is their way of showing gratitude. Accept it already.

He is right. It is fine to accept this much.

-Chief. -[Taesan breathes deeply]

-[chuckles, sighs] -[sighs]

-All right. We will accept with gratitude. -[Marok] Good thinking.

-Thank you, my goodness. -What did you bring us?

Chief, I will quickly set the table!

-[Malsook] Please come this way. -[villager] Thank you.

[Jwidol] It is this way. Let me take that.

[owl hooting]

[snoring]

[groaning]

[snoring continues]

[Taesan] Huh?

Guys.

What happened?

[breathes heavily]

[villagers] She must be killed. We need to move fast.

-I saw her shooting wind from her hand. -[Taesan] What?

I saw it with my own two eyes.

She is a fiend for sure.

-Something shot from her hands. -Exactly!

-I saw it too. -Same here!

She must be some kind of fiend with magical powers.

-The others are with her for sure. -Yes.

We have to kill the rest too.

She will charm us under the guise of protecting us,

-then kill us all. -[villagers whimpering]

We must kill the fiend first.

-Let us kill her. -Yes, let us kill her.

-Kill her. -Kill the fiend.

Guys, wake up!

Come on!

[groaning]

[Wonseung] Guys, are you all right?

-The liquor. -The liquor?

I think someone spiked the liquor.

-Where is Mirr? -Mirr?

Mirr…

[villager] The fiend should die.

[Taesan panting]

-[grunts] -[villagers exclaim]

Move!

[clamoring]

Mirr, wake up. Come on!

[villager] Who tied the knot so loose?

-Why did you tie her up so loosely? -[whimpers]

-[villager] We can't let her go. -Go on. Get going.

[villagers] Should we not stop her? We should grab her.

[groans]

-Oh, my. -He pulled it out.

-[villagers clamor] -[grunts]

[villagers scream]

-Go. -Run!

[villagers screaming]

[villager] Do not push.

-Move! -Hurry!

That is what humans are really like.

[♪ ominous music plays]

They have been that way for thousands of years.

As long as we live…

we will not get involved with humans ever again.

[sighs deeply]

TWELVE

[♪ dramatic music plays]

-[rocks cracking] -[rumbling]

For thousands of years,

I have scoured the world for you,

Ogwi.

[exhales softly]

The boredom almost killed me.

You've been looking for me for thousands of years?

Maybe you never really wanted to wake me.

[choking]

I'm right, aren't I?

Look at what's become of me.

I risked my life to awaken you.

[grunts]

Help me.

I need your powers.

Taesan and Marok.

The angels are still alive.

[grunts]

Now that's music to my ears.

[♪ upbeat music plays]

[bicycle bell dings]

[breathes deeply]

[grunting]

[panting]

Are you tired already?

How can you be wiped out before we've even started?

Get up already.

[grunting]

[sighs] I'm not quite feeling like myself today.

-[scoffs] That's ridiculous. -[chuckles]

It's your first time working out with us.

Seriously, this is why I kept telling you to exercise regularly.

Your body's giving up since it's not used to physical activity.

Don't worry, Kangji. Well begun is half done.

I warmed up today, so I'll run with you tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Are you saying you're leaving?

Yes. Why?

Then you'll have woken up early for nothing.

It's fine.

I can have early breakfast. Early breakfast is the best.

I haven't been to the Han River in a while, so I'll get some ramyeon.

[Malsook] He sure does live up to his name.

[grunting]

Seriously?

Why don't you just join me for some ramyeon too?

You can work out later if you want.

We didn't come here to eat.

Malsook, why are you so snappy?

Because you keep muttering nonsense.

It must be because you're hungry.

-All the more reason to have ramyeon. -[sighs]

Just go.

Leave without saying another word.

Kangji, I'll be at the convenience store eating ramyeon,

so come by if you get hungry.

[chuckles] Sure. I'll meet you there after the run, so enjoy for now.

Kangji, hurry up!

-Let's not waste time. -Got it.

Bye, see you later.

Sure, see you later.

[sighs]

[yells]

Ah. Remember, running isn't supposed to be work.

Let's keep it light today.

Don't be a baby like Doni.

Also, take that off when running.

That doesn't even work.

How can I, when I've had this with me forever?

I know why you're wearing it.

You're wearing it in case something happens to humans.

But the Hellmouth was sealed ages ago.

Don't forget why we live in these human forms.

And stop dwelling on negative thoughts.

Let's pick up the pace.

What?

Already? Hey!

Not yet. I haven't even warmed up.

[Malsook] We're not out for a stroll.

-Get moving! -[Kangji yelps]

Let's take it easy, Malsook, come on!

Horoscopes never get it right.

"BE CAREFUL TODAY!"

How could I have bad blood with someone when I've never been disliked?

Bangwool and I

have probably cured a million humans.

[dog panting]

[Doni] Don't be tempted by human food.

Sticking to dog food is how you live a long life.

-[dog whines] -Why am I eating this

when I'm a pig, you ask? Listen up.

A pig's body fat percentage is only about 13 to 15%.

By human standards,

pigs are lean and muscular. Got it?

[dog barking]

What was that?

Contrary to what I believe, calluses on my toes don't count as muscle?

Look, what I have is 100% fat.

What do you think that means?

It means I'm not a pig.

God just gave me the abilities of a pig.

I'm not a pig, but an angel.

[dog growls, barking]

Are my wings buried in all this fat, you ask?

You want me to stop oinking and give you a piece of the sundae?

Enough with your barking nonsense!

-[dog whimpers, growls] -Why you…

-[Doni barks] -Hey!

What do you think you're doing?

Your dog's been barking at me for some sundae,

calling me a pig.

What? Do you even hear yourself?

I have the ability to read minds, you see.

Stop barking nonsense!

Say that again, why don't you? Bark at me!

-Go on! -What's he doing over there?

What are you doing? Just get lost, mister.

Why are you yelling at my precious dog?

-It barked nonsense at me. -Leave it!

We're so sorry.

We're really sorry. Please accept our apology.

-I know that was frightening. -He has special needs, doesn't he?

[chuckles]

You see,

my friend sometimes snaps when he's hungry.

What?

We brought you here to run, not to cause trouble.

[Doni] I didn't cause any trouble.

Zip it and come with me.

[chuckles]

We're sorry he ruined your peaceful day out.

So sorry.

You get it, right?

You know we'd lose if we went up against a pig.

I'm so sorry.

-[dog barking] -Let's get out of here.

[Kangji] You've got to be kidding me.

Unbelievable!

Doni, Chief said not to interact with humans.

I'm not the one who actively interacted with a human.

That dog pushed my buttons.

It's true that dogs have it best these days.

[sighs] What a mess.

I thought you were having ramyeon.

You're having pork belly and sundae for breakfast?

Is having a hearty breakfast a crime?

You're the ones who should stay out of my life.

You know nothing.

I'll eat all of this and leave nothing behind.

I'm polishing off this sundae!

[chuckles]

Geez.

ANCIENT ART EXHIBITION: A JOURNEY INTO MYSTERY

[horns honking]

-[groans] -[high-pitched ringing]

[sighs]

[ringing fades]

[sighs]

It's total chaos.

After I finish, I'll be back at the museum before lunch.

Okay, bye.

[phone disconnects]

Hmm…

[sighs]

[sighs]

[sighs]

[bird cawing]

[evil spirit] I need your powers.

Taesan and Marok.

The angels are still alive.

[person] You will be sealed in Hell for eternity,

and you'll be neither dead nor alive.

[Taesan] You defied God and brought ruin to the world.

[sighs]

[♪ lively music plays]

-Isn't it good? -It is.

What about Chief? Is he not coming?

Of course, he's not.

He said we should go easy on the human cosplay.

We don't have birthdays.

He's not wrong.

Except for the chief,

we were all born on the same day at the same time.

But since time hadn't been conceptualized back then,

we wouldn't know our date of birth.

[Jwidol] Where's Mirr?

The exhibition's been keeping her late at work.

She said it was related to us.

Probably legends about us created by humans.

What?

The years we've lived could never be put into words.

So anyway, whose birthday is it?

[Jwidol] Wait, is it Bangwool's birthday?

"RESIDENT REGISTRATION CARD"

Is that your ID card?

Goodness.

-Let's see it. -[Doni] You still have that?

What era is this even from?

-Let me see. -I'll get you a new one tomorrow.

[Wonseung] Give it here.

[scoffs]

She needs to take a new photo first.

This is what I see.

In this photo,

she looks like a country bumpkin snapping her first picture in the city.

Right? Don't you agree?

[laughing]

Bangwool, come on.

Huh?

Oh…

What did she say?

-[Doni] You're to stop by the clinic. -Why?

There's a strong medicinal herb that can blind you and numb your tongue.

[gasping]

[chuckling]

Here.

[clears throat]

Wonseung, as if you're any different.

-Check this out. -What?

-What is it? Let me see. -[laughing]

[Malsook] He looks like a total clown!

How so? That's decent enough.

That's actually pretty recent.

-[Wonseung] Hey! -Check these out.

[Kangji] That's nasty.

Come on!

-Seriously? -Stop it!

That's enough.

[♪ ethereal music plays]

[ethereal whispering]

[gasps]

[indistinct whispering]

Hi, there.

[sighs]

Are you here by yourself?

From across the room, you looked so sexy sipping that wine.

I'd love to drink with you. What do you say?

[chuckles]

I'm not a dangerous person.

[sighs]

Are you a dog person?

At my table, there's someone who turns into one when he's drunk.

Want to go watch?

Leave.

Just go.

[chuckles]

Well, I mean…

[inhales sharply]

[chuckles]

My friend, you're killing me.

Couldn't you be smoother? It's clear what she's after.

Excuse me.

[inhales sharply]

These lights are a little too bright,

so how about a cozy drink back at my place?

I've got expensive booze at home. Let's go.

You in?

Let's go. Come on.

Sweet. [chuckles]

[grunts]

[sighs]

[scoffs]

[sirens wailing in distance]

Humans built all this?

Samin.

What were you doing while humans were flourishing?

Did you just toss aside your mission

to turn the world into hell?

My hands were tied.

After Haetae died and the Hellmouth closed,

I lost all my powers.

I clung to life with everything I had

to look for you.

Of course. As if a high priest would actually have any real power.

So?

What do you want from me?

The world should return to being a hell of death and curses.

[sighs]

I need your help, Ogwi.

You said the angels were still alive.

Even I can't take them on.

The angels lost their powers and now live in human forms.

Besides, I'll give you power even greater than what you already have.

[scoffs]

How?

You can sense Haetae's energy.

I saw it with my own eyes.

The day Haetae was killed by Taesan and the angels,

he left behind three soul stones.

Once you gather the soul stones

and feed their energy into the Dragon Soul,

which oversees the energy of angels and demons,

you can revive Haetae's power.

That power…

will be yours, Ogwi.

Hmm…

But, Samin…

you're slier than a snake.

So how can I believe you?

You can trust me.

This is also my last shot at becoming immortal.

[chuckles]

So that's what you're after.

[sighs]

If you try anything stupid…

I'll rip your head from your body.

60CHICKEN

Thanks for this.

Why did you order so much? I'm not having any.

Why not?

Dalgi appeared in my dream yesterday,

and Dalgi's chicken friends rushed into my arms.

I'm skipping chicken today because it makes me think of Dalgi.

Cut the crap, will you?

You eat pork belly and sundae just fine.

She's right. Just eat what's here and don't complain

about being hungry later.

Got it.

Where's Chief? Should we be eating while he works?

Maybe we should get him some. He's looking thinner these days.

-What? -Probably only from your standards.

He eats just fine, so leave him alone.

Where's Chief gone?

-To collect from the used car shop owner. -Why didn't he take me with him?

I'd love to knock the hell out of those thugs.

He'll be bringing in loads today alone.

What's the point when he doesn't spend any?

Wouldn't it be nice to help those in need?

[grunting]

[server] Here's your fried chicken.

-[Jwidol] Let's eat. -[server] Enjoy.

[Kangji] Thank you.

I'm sure Dalgi wouldn't mind me eating a drumstick.

There will still be one left.

[Malsook scoffs] I knew it.

Mmm! It's nice and crunchy.

Try the sauce. It's good.

-That's it. -Like this?

[sighs]

[moans]

This is really good.

CAR MASTER ELDI MOTORS

[Taesan] That's 37, 38, 39, and 40.

Okay.

Would it kill you to pay up when you've got the money?

What's the point of an IOU? It's a promise.

Yes, of course.

It's not like I enjoy flexing my muscles.

I apologize.

Your boys don't really pack a punch.

[grunts]

Here. Take what's left.

Geez, thank you.

We're all done here.

Call me if you need another loan.

I think I'll be fine.

Have a nice day, sir!

[sighs]

Darn it.

[line ringing]

Hello?

You see, my condition started getting worse last night.

Could you fit me in today?

I didn't make an appointment, but I'm out of medication.

All right, I'm heading over now.

Thanks.

[sighs]

KIM SEONGHWAN MENTAL HEALTH CLINIC

Mr. Taesan's here to see you.

-Please let him in. -Sure.

You're here.

I ran out of medication.

My chest feels tight, and I'm struggling to breathe.

I'm out of medication.

[exhales deeply]

[footsteps approaching]

[sighs]

Let's start with a brief consultation.

Your complexion looks much better.

My sessions and follow-ups must be working.

Right.

No, they're completely useless.

Still, sessions with me will help improve--

-No, I haven't gotten better. -Not even a little bit?

None at all.

You need time to battle depression--

I need medication.

Sir.

If you're still not improving under the care

of a talented doctor like me,

it means you don't fully trust me, your doctor.

I'll prescribe a two-month supply, as usual. Please relax and wait here.

[grunts]

Should I dim the lights for you?

Sure.

[grunts]

[door closes]

[match strikes]

You can trust me.

This is also my last shot at becoming immortal.

So that's what you're after.

[sighs]

If you

try anything stupid…

I'll rip your head from your body.

It's still not too late to get rid of Ogwi.

Do you want to die before we even open the Hellmouth?

Ogwi's the only one who can find the soul stones.

We'll change the plan.

MIRR CALLING

[Marok] Please pick up.

The long journey of five months has finally concluded.

-[phone buzzes] -[chuckles]

The exhibition, which showcased relics that were previously not shown to public

and artifacts with high preservation value,

attracted greater interest than usual.

[chuckles]

Ms. Mirr, who dedicated so much time to the exhibition,

along with the team members, you all did a fantastic job.

Nice work, everyone.

-[worker] Good job. -[worker 2] Nicely done.

[line ringing]

No way. It can't be, right?

[chuckles]

No way.

How does this make sense?

Evil spirits rising after thousands of years?

I just talked to Marok. He's on his way.

Where's Chief?

-I'm calling him. -[line ringing]

What if this is for real?

We're no different from any other humans. How are we supposed to fight them?

[scoffs]

He's not picking up.

I have a location. We'll know more when we get there.

Will we be okay? Chief will have our heads for this.

If this is real, getting scolded is the least of our worries.

Let's get going.

Sure.
