Original subtitles

Did you find her?

You're not hurt, right?

I missed you.

Flowers in this world have unique meanings.

Do you know the meaning of this one?

What is it?

Something you have, but I don't.

Memories.

Are you saying that the two of them went in together?

Yes, sir.

Okay. Do your work.

It turned out for the best.

Now that the evil omen has penetrated the village,

all we need is the disasters to start.

That's right.

Then... what should I start with?

How dare you! Let go!

-How dare you! -You bastard!

How dare you block him.

Come on in.

What is a guest of the inn doing here so late?

Were you bothered in any way at the inn?

Look, no matter how I think about it, it's just too much.

Because you have a permission paper, you bound our merchant's ship.

I can barely pay the high rate you're charging at the inn.

It's been 20 days! We also need to make a living!

My dear guest!

you have yet to promise us

exclusive broker rights for the cargo.

Therefore, the days are just get longer.

Damn it! You miserable thief!

Stop blocking street corners to rob people.

We are not traveling 1000 li... No, 10,000 li to satisfy your greed!

I will reveal your atrocities to the whole world!

Go safely.

Hurry up!

We'll get a lot of fish.

-Isn't that a person? -Wait.

He's dead! Report to the post!

-He's dead! -The man is dead!

EPISODE 5

-What happened? -Someone's died.

He is approximately five feet six.

His hair is about 24 inches long.

There are no signs of a beating or strangulation.

-What about poison? -We put a silver hairpin in his mouth,

but it did not change color.

And he didn't have any previous illness.

A death with no identifiable cause,

Rumors have it that a mermaid cast some type of curse on him.

People are trembling in fear.

Please inspect the body swiftly and bury it in a nice, warm spot.

I think it's best to quiet down the panic-stricken rumors.

Whether this was caused by a mermaid's curse

or...

someone's crafty scheme to cause fear, we don't know yet.

Until I conclusively find the truth about this death,

we will not hold a funeral service.

I am having the judicial officer, physician, and undertaker

-do their best in the examination. -Yes, sir.

Catch the mermaid!

-She must be captured! -Capture the mermaid!

Who's this? Hong-nan!

What brings you here?

Elder...

she is the head shamaness from Mt. Geumman.

According to her, an evil mermaid is hiding in the government office.

What on earth?

What kind of nonsense is that?

You don't believe it?

Then may we search the place?

Are you crazy?

You can't. The town leader is not here.

Will the town leader...

last longer than my mister?

Sir! Town leader!

People are gathered at the office right now.

They're searching everywhere and it's--

I came to tell you,! How ungrateful! Let's go together!

I have dreams.

In the dreams, I'm living in a strange world.

And...

you are also there.

I painted you and me from my dream.

Whether it's a dream or hallucination...

or if I'm just seeing the future of another world...

I don't know.

But one thing is certain.

You shouldn't do this.

Kill her!

Whatever is happening now...

will also happen then.

Even so, strangely enough...

this incident is happening again.

I'm here to ask about the murder in house 22-4.

May I come in for a minute?

Who are you?

Is this how you investigate? There are normally two guys.

Show me your ID.

You don't have a radio.

Are you really a police officer?

Where are you going?

I don't think he's a cop. He's suspicious. Follow him.

Sir, you're in no situation to report others.

You were not compliant at the police checkpoint

and sped away. Why did you do that?

Oh, that...

I heard there was a murder in this area.

My girlfriend was alone here. I was worried.

She gets scared easily.

No, I don't.

Yes, you do.

-I do? -You do!

-I do? -You do!

-Right, I do. -Okay. Let me see your ID

-Can you show me? -Oh, yes.

-I request an ID check. -Here.

The name is Kim Hyun-sung.

ID number 870521...

What is this?

Isn't he the guy who escaped after ramming through the checkpoint?

I think so.

I've seen him somewhere before.

Listen!

We heard someone's seen Ma Dae-young near Oksoo-dong.

-Where in Oksoo-dong? -Let's go.

Request backup from the Oksoo-dong patrol.

I haven't made prank calls

to the police and fire station since I was nine years old.

Now, Heo Joon-jae is making me do these illegal things again.

Jeez, Heo Joon-jae!

He has no criminal record and the address checks out. There's nothing wrong.

Anyway, since you disobeyed our instructions,

you have to pay a penalty pursuant to Traffic Law Article Five.

Of course, I'll pay it. Sure.

Once you get the notice, you must pay within 60 days.

Yes, sir. You really are working hard in this cold weather.

We'll be going inside now.

Let's go in. You were shocked, right?

No, not really.

Yes, you were really shocked. Come on, let's go inside.

Where have I seen that guy?

-Do you know him? -No, it's not that.

But I don't like him.

You know when you meet a person and for some reason you don't like them?

I just don't like him.

What happened?

Does it hurt?

Hey, why do open the door to just anyone?

I opened it because someone...

Because it's not a shark.

Why would a shark come here?

And humans are more dangerous than sharks.

Humans are more dangerous? Why?

Less than five sharks kill humans every year.

But tens of thousands of humans are killing sharks. Who's more dangerous?

-Humans? -That's right.

That's how dangerous humans are. So when someone you don't know knocks,

-never open the-- -Heo Joon-jae...

doesn't your hand hurt?

I told you.

You should only protect others after you protect yourself.

The same goes for worrying.

Before you worry about others, worry about yourself.

Take care of you first!

Seriously, what am I doing?

I'm acting weird.

Heo Joon-jae, I'm curious about something.

Now what?

Where did the small people inside there go?

What?

Are they in here? Can you tell them to come out?

Come out? From there?

Yes. Earlier...

"Your real father is..."

And then it ended with "until next time."

I'm so curious about who the father is.

-Are you very curious? -Yes.

Should I try asking them?

Really? Do you know those people?

Of course. They are tenants in my house.

-They live in there! -Really?

I'll call them and ask.

Hello?

Are you okay?

Oh, yeah. I'm the landlord.

What? What landlord?

-How can you go inside like that? -Inside where?

Shouldn't you finish what you were going to say?

Finish what?

Why do you shamefully stop in the middle of saying something?

What? Are you out of your mind?

Say it.

Who is your real father?

Father?

You just hit my weak spot. I'm an orphan, remember?

Yes, I got it. Wow!

-What did they say? -You first.

What?

Tell me how we met in Spain, what we did, and why I can't remember anything.

Tell me the truth.

Can't you just talk?

Of course not. Why?

The world is "give and take."

Give... and... take.

Without "give," there is no "take."

Even if there's no "give," can't there just be "take"?

No. The world doesn't work like that.

Then, I'll just wait until next time.

I'm good at waiting.

You may be good at waiting,

but I'm not. I can't wait.

Listen carefully.

For you, "next time" is tomorrow.

If you don't say anything by tomorrow, you must leave this place.

Tomorrow.

What happened?

The Haewon-dong incident. It's your doing, isn't it?

It doesn't matter if you believe me, but I didn't do it.

Don't complicate things. Just do what I say.

You know what card I have in my hand.

Did you find Joon-jae?

Send me his address.

Mother, what are you doing?

-Why aren't you sleeping? -I got hungry while doing some work.

-Is there anything to eat? -Of course. I'll make you something.

Thank you.

-Oh, I want you to make me a sandwich. -Really?

I'll see if I have stuff to make it.

ENTER PASSWORD

29 ROAD 4, SOGONG-RO, JOONG-GU

-Do you have what you need? -Yes. It'll be ready in a minute.

Just wait.

Oh, your phone was ringing.

Oh, my! Hey!

It... must've broken..

-You should be more careful. -I'm sorry.

Why don't you get a new phone?

Who uses a flip phone anyway?

I'll get you the latest phone, okay?

Hey, what are you doing?

You saw me?

Don't mind me. I just wanted to look at you.

Hey, put your head back in. Go on.

Go back inside!

So immature.

Why aren't your friends home?

They're not coming home tonight.

So it's just the two of us?

Hey, you're even scarier when you smile like that.

Go back in. Are you a ghost?

Sorry, but don't be concerned about me.

I'm doing this because it's fun. Want to see?

Close your eyes. You won't see me.

Dang it! This isn't a summer horror movie.

How can I keep my eyes closed when you keep doing that?

You don't like it?

Then should I come down? Next to you?

Okay.

Now, I have to come down.

Yes, come down.

Come down, so you can leave.

You can leave today or tomorrow. Whatever, it's fine.

Come down. Hey!

Close that all the way.

She scares me.

It'd be nice if tomorrow wouldn't come.

-Why are you here? -And you're still here.

Is Joon-jae inside?

He told me not to open the door for strangers.

I'm not a stranger.

What are you doing?

You're a stranger to me.

Is this your house?

I came here to see Heo Joon-jae!

I see.

Come in. Why are you on the ground?

That little...

Where is Joon-jae?

He went out for a jog.

What about Nam-doo and Tae-oh?

They didn't come home. Unfortunately, just for last night.

I wish it could be forever.

So... just the two of you were here yesterday?

Yes.

Cheong, listen to what I'm about to say.

To be honest, Joon-jae and I are going to get married.

-What does that mean? -Marriage!

When a man and a woman live together and love and care for each other.

You mean what Joon-jae and I are doing now?

No. What you are doing now isn't marriage.

-All you're doing is being a parasite. -What does that mean?

That means mooching off a person.

Marriage is something you choose to do. That's the difference.

Did Joon-jae say he wanted to live with you?

No. Being here when the other person doesn't want you to,

that's what mooching is, like a parasite sucking someone's blood.

I didn't suck any blood!

I didn't.

No.

I'm not saying you actually sucked his blood.

You can't understand if I say it politely. So I will be direct.

Just get out.

Don't stay here like a queen parasite.

Get out!

What is wrong with you?

It hurts!

Are you a crazy dog?

Why did you bite her?

Don't be too hard on her.

I screamed earlier because I was surprised.

It doesn't hurt that bad.

What are you looking at?

Cha Si-ah told me to get out.

-No, I just-- -Are you not going to leave?

You're leaving today if you don't tell me.

Tell you what?

What didn't she tell?

Something. Get up. Can you drive?

-I'm taking a taxi. -Let's go. I'll get you a taxi.

You better get ready to get out.

I'll come back for my car when my finger is better.

Oh, did I tell you what I've been working on?

In the sea of Yangyang,

a several hundred-year-old wreck was discovered.

The relics found there are very unusual. Would you like to see?

Get in.

WINTER LOVERS

Did you know?

If you confess your love

on the first day of snow, that love will come true.

Really? I didn't know that.

So that's how it is!

She was having fun, watching racy stuff.

Come here.

Come eat.

It's hot. Blow on it first.

Now stop blowing and eat.

Are you done?

Your hand.

This is a cellphone. You know what a cellphone is, right?

Watch. Here.

If you press here, you will hear my voice.

Like this.

Don't press it whenever.

Just press it when you're ready to tell me everything.

Only then.

And here's a public transportation card.

That's it.

Now leave.

Go.

Is this our "until next time"?

Yeah.

You promised me yesterday. Do you know what promises are for?

What's a promise for?

It's to be kept.

That's right!

It's to be kept.

Exactly.

If you have nothing else to say, take that and leave.

So promise me something.

Why should I?

Remember "give... and take."

What do you want me to promise?

Let our "until next time" be on the day it first snows.

Why would we need to do that?

Because I want to tell you something on the day it first snows.

What is it? Tell me now.

Right now?

I can't say it right now.

Our "until next time"...

There.

What?

Namsan?

Yeah. Let's meet there.

I don't want to. Do you know how crowded it gets when it snows?

Not to mention the traffic. I don't go outside on snow days.

I need to tell you something on that day.

If you promise me, I'll leave.

Fine. All right.

Now leave.

Why aren't you leaving?

Move!

I'm going to find out

where you're going, who you're meeting, and why you're here.

Go! I said move!

SASHIMI RESTAURANT

CHAMBADA SASHIMI

Don't be scared. I won't eat you.

How did you all get here?

Oh, really?

I've been there before.

The water was nice. There were lots of dolphins.

You think it's unfair? More unfair than what I'm going through?

I traveled very far for a guy.

I'm not asking for much.

I just want us to be together, loving and caring for each other.

Not mooching off of him.

That's all I want.

Do you want to come inside?

Bye.

You really kicked her out in the cold?

It's not that cold.

COLDEST DAY THIS WINTER. POURING SNOW

So what? You want me to take care of her forever?

You're such a punk. Yesterday you were so worried about her

that you sped like a maniac through the police checkpoint.

Today, you kick her out in this freezing weather?

-I did that because it was dangerous. -Isn't it even more dangerous outside?

CRIME HIKES DURING THE HOLIDAY SEASON

Whatever.

What am I, her guardian?

Okay, you're not her guardian.

But Cheong gave you a bracelet worth six billion won for free.

She's like an angel.

What are you looking at?

You said you'd never mistreat someone who has nothing. So what happened?

Cheong isn't just completely broke! She has no idea what's going on!

What the heck?

Gangnam?

-Where are you going? -Gangnam.

You have no business in Gangnam.

I've found a great target for our next job!

I really did! She only finished vocational high school.

But she has a Harvard sticker on the back of her car.

HARVARD UNIVERSITY

All mothers have to join together and stand against this absurdity.

Why do our kids have to study with kids who live in rentals?

Oh, my goodness.

That would make the neighborhood look shabby.

She worries about the school system and her neighborhood.

Her dog's name is Oh-Baek because she spends five million won a month on it.

But she doesn't donate even 500 won.

Why are you so curious about the bells?

She fabricated a decrease in sales in her husband's account book.

Now she's looking for something to invest in. In other words,

she won't be able to report anything, even if she gets ripped off.

Our food.

Welcome, ma'am. Is this your first time here?

Hold Oh-Baek and give me my bag.

As you wish.

Hello, ma'am! Where is our baby hurting?

Hey!

Yes.

I'm going to the department store later.

I want to fill my closet with new things, so throw all this away.

There seems to be a lot of new stuff here.

Okay.

And is that the clothes you use when you're working?

What's wrong with my clothes?

If I ask you something, just answer. Don't question me!

Goodness! Why are you looking at me like that?

Look down!

We won't talk much more. And thanks for your hard work.

Now leave.

Please sit, ma'am.

No, I won't be long. I was going somewhere.

I just stopped by to say hi and thank you for the food you gave us.

Oh, my. Did you like it?

My darling hadn't eaten well in a long time,

but he ate all the food.

It was exactly what he likes!

Really?

That's such a relief!

I'll make more whenever you want!

Drive back safely.

-Please come by again. -Okay.

Goodbye.

Hi!

I will be packing my bag and heading out.

Where?

You told me to leave.

When you throw away the trash, you leave the house.

You can't throw away the trash inside, so I told you to leave.

I meant, "Leave, throw away the trash, and come back in."

What are you talking about?

You said I was looking at you and how I dress--

Yeah, if you kept looking at me like that, I was afraid your eyes would get tired.

That's why you should look down, comfortably.That's what I meant.

Your clothes are... What's that? Where did you get it?

I was just saying how nice they look on you.

Were you hurt when I said that? Now I should be upset.

You did thank me for my hard work, so...

Madam Mo has been working so hard all this time!

I was thanking you and asking you to continue to do so in the future.

That's not it.

I think I don't express myself very well.

I should be more careful, right?

No. As you said, I must have misunderstood.

From now on, there'll be no misunderstanding between us.

Should we go to Noryangjin later on and buy some crabs?

You met the guy but got kicked out?

I wasn't kicked out. He just told me to leave.

Yeah, he kicked you out.

But we are going to meet again.

Anyway, it seems like you'll have to live on the street.

But the timing isn't good. It's the severe winter season.

Look for styrofoam boxes that were used for packaging.

A lot of people are after them. So they are very valuable,

You're jealous of them, right?

They go home after work.

I wish I had a home too.

But their houses aren't theirs. It's the bank's.

In professional terms, they're house poor. Beggars with houses.

They're beggars!

Of course. They are all beggars.

Look at their slouching shoulders. It's because of all the debt they have.

That's why Joon-jae was always talking about money.

In a way, we are richer than them. We don't have any debt.

There are only three things we have to worry about.

The cold, the heat, and food.

Score!

Who would throw this away?

-By the way, how do you earn money? -Money?

Should I... make you touch one?

You can give this out to people.

Look, it's very cold, so people have their hands in their pockets.

Yes.

You need to make them take their hands out of their pockets.

Look. The wrist snap is important.

If they don't take it, then don't get hurt. Just step back.

Back and forth.

This has to happen within two seconds.

It's hard, and people don't take it.

You can't give several copies to one person nor throw it on the street.

Look, ten o'clock.

Ten o'clock. Ten o'clock.

The boss is watching.

See that?

Here.

-Good luck! I'm leaving. -You're not staying?

If not for an insulated box to block the chill

and a crust of bread to fill my tummy, I just don't...

earn any money.

I'll earn money! And give it all to Heo Joon-jae. He likes money!

Oh, jeez.

I was wondering why she was here.

That dummy!

Hey! Are you the tide's ebb and flow?

Why are you just going back and forth?

At this rate, I won't give you any money!

What...

That bast...

Hello! Is this parking management? I want to report a vehicle.

PARKING VIOLATION TOW TRUCK

Hey! No!

I'm here!

Hey!

Oh! A hand is out.

Give me a sauna flyer.

-Give me one too. -Me too.

Score!

Give me one.

One more.

-One more. -Me too.

-Give me one more. -Yes.

Thank you.

-That's right! -Thank you.

I got two.

I told you it's 1000 won even for two flyers.

If you want 2,000, get more.

-Really? -Hurry.

I said that I'd only accept the sauna one.

What is this? Are you kidding? Leave.

Hurry up and go. Smart-ass.

Come on, go to the internet cafe!

You are working hard in this cold.

Eat this.

And take this. Here.

Good luck.

-Are you going to marry her? -No.

-It must be unrequited love! -No way.

I knew it.

Good luck! It's one-sided love.

Excuse me.

It may be too forward, but you are totally my style.

Maybe you can give me your number?

-Do you have a cellphone? -Ah, cellphone.

Cellphone...

Hey! Sim Cheong.

Heo Joon-jae!

I forgot to tell you something.

If someone asks for your number, never give it out, okay?

-Why? -Why?

Because those are bad guys.

You're good at biting, right? If they linger around you, just bite them.

I'm sorry.

Heo Joon-jae, where are you?

Me? I am very far from you.

Heo Joon-jae!

Heo Joon-jae!

-Heo Joon-jae! -Oh, it's you!

You were here?

Yeah. Why did you come here?

-Did you come see me? -Do you think I'm crazy?

I was just passing by.

Were you following me?

No. I really wasn't.

Even though Seoul is big, it's as big as the palm of your hand.

If you turn around, you will see many people.

You can meet people by chance.

We can also meet by chance again?

I'm not sure. We'll see.

Anyway, I got to run.

Heo Joon-jae!

Hey! Don't say my name out loud like that.

Heo Joon-jae, I'm earning money here.

I will earn a lot and give it all to you.

Number 2708 will have a lawyer's office coming in.

So we are still talking.

After we set the conditions, I will tell you more.

Right. You will surely take care of it.

-Are you going home? -No. I have an appointment.

Why are you dressed so lightly? You should put on some warm clothes.

Father...

you must miss Joon-jae, right?

It's getting cold.

I am curious how he's doing and would like to see him.

It's about time he came home.

Should I look for him?

No. How would you?

The truth is...

I've asked Nam to look into it.

Still, I'm grateful that you think about him.

No, you're welcome.

Father, as far as looking for him,

I think it'd be best to not tell Mother.

Why?

Because.

FIRING KILN SAUNA

You're wearing a hat again.

She recognized me.

Rain continues to fall in Seoul's Gyeonggi region.

This rain will be affected by the cold air.

It should start snowing very soon.

It will be the first snowfall in Seoul.

Expect severe traffic jams during rush hour.

Hi! What are you doing here?

You're not here to take money from kids again, are you?

No! I'm earning money!

Is this the first snowfall?

It's the first time it snows this winter, so it is the first snowfall.

What's so great about the snow? It just causes traffic jams.

I have to get to Namsan quickly. What do I do?

You're going to meet Heo Joon-jae?

How did you know?

You just said you were going to meet him.

You heard that?

I thought people couldn't hear my real voice!

I don't know what you're talking about. Anyway,

if you have money take a taxi.

If not, take the bus.

Okay, thanks. See you around!

IMPROVE YOUR MATH PERFORMANCE!

Ah, what a bummer!

Why are so many weird things happening ever since that dummy appeared?

If she has something to say, she can call or text.

Why does she tell people to come and go?

She better tell me something.

Oh! How is she so fast?

Heo Joon-jae, wait for me!

Why isn't she here?

Help me.

Help me.

What are you doing? Hurry up!

The mermaid talked. She asked for help.

What do you mean she talked?

I didn't hear anything. Let's go!

Let's go.

You were doing your homework. Why are you out there?

Mom, she's asking for help.

Who?

The lady.

You're saying anything to get out of studying. Hurry inside.

Come on, please!
