SPOOKY IN LOVE

They parked by Haedam Reservoir for two hours,

then drove seven kilometers past the tollgate.

At 1 a.m.,

the missing person's phone was turned off

somewhere around Sanggok-myeon, so…

Yes?

Where?

Who's there?

It was a woman?

So it's you.

They say the culprit always returns to the scene.

No woman could dump a corpse here alone.

An accomplice?

Are you here for this?

The victim's phone? Put it down.

Put it down.

That's…

Damn it.

People like you exhaust me.

People like you are the reason I have no time to be exhausted.

The law is a luxury for the likes of you.

You're lecturing me about the law?

-What a joke. -Let me go.

-What do you think-- -Freeze.

Don't move!

What are you doing here this late?

My gosh, I get that it's dark and secluded here,

but aren't you being too frisky?

-It's not what you think! -It's not what you think!

Darn it.

Good job, guys. You can go on home now.

Don't touch me.

I'll sue you for aggravated assault.

If nudging you is aggravated assault, what will you call your kick?

You appeared out of nowhere and acted all weird.

You're the weirdest one here, okay?

Why were you here this late, and how did you know the body was here?

-Well? -Prosecutor Ma.

Hey.

So how did you know…

What the heck? Where'd she go?

What? Who?

-Where did… -Who? What?

Didn't you see the woman I was just talking to?

What woman? Come on, you're scaring me.

She was in a hoodie.

Come on, now. You must've seen a ghost.

This is why I told you to go to bed on time.

But she was standing right here a minute ago.

Yeah, sure.

So how did the caller know the body was here?

Who called in the tip-off?

I know you're angry it took so long to find your body,

but the killer will pay.

So let it all go and move on.

And marry a good person in your next life.

Is there even a next life?

I think my current life is royally screwed.

If I were told I could get a second try

at living again, perhaps…

Wait. Where'd he go?

You moved on already?

Couldn't you give me an answer first?

Why do they all vanish whenever I ask them that?

Aren't we on the same side? We have a camaraderie.

Don't we?

I guess we don't.

Yeo-ri.

6 YEARS AGO

What's the matter? You don't like it?

Are you really okay with this?

For as long as you're with me,

you'll live with fear and horror.

They'll become a part of your life.

I heard all about that.

Give me your hand.

It's fine.

Nothing will happen.

Next, we have some business news.

Cheon Yeo-ri, the Reina Hotels & Resorts heiress

and Cha Gi-u, the eldest son of Cha & Yul Law Firm's partner

are to be engaged today.

They met early in the year

through a mutual friend, and dated with prospects of marriage.

The union of two prestigious business

and legal entities has everyone talking.

The engagement will be held in private at Reina Hotel's Siena Hall.

CHEON YEO-RI & CHA GI-U

I'm so sorry.

I left home early, but the traffic was insane.

It's okay, you're here now.

Everyone's waiting. We should go.

You look amazing today.

Let's go.

The engagement ring.

I must've left it in the car.

I'll be right back.

What's happening?

Hey. Get a hold of yourself.

Hello?

The elevator's flooding!

Hello? The elevator's flooded!

Hello?

Damn it.

Gi-u.

-Are you all right? -Don't come closer.

-Gi-u. -Stay right there!

I didn't think I'd actually become haunted

just by holding your hand.

Yeo-ri.

I'm sorry.

I don't think I can marry you. I'm sorry.

I won't date her.

I won't ever see Yeo-ri again.

That's when I realized…

that I couldn't touch anyone ever again.

That I shouldn't rely on

or expect anything from anyone.

That's when I also decided…

that if I couldn't avoid the spirits that came to find me,

then I'd learn not to let them bother me.

I may not be welcoming,

but I'd try to overcome it enough that I wouldn't fear

being around them.

SPOOKY IN LOVE

EPISODE 1

The whole point of this case is

that although the parties do seem to be connected,

there's only circumstantial evidence

and no direct evidence such as a corpse or murder weapon.

We uphold the principle of trial by evidence,

and therefore have concluded there's not enough

to result in a conviction.

Defendant, please rise.

Case No. 5410-Badan-1651.

The sentence.

Defendant Park Seung-jae, accused of the murder of Jang Eun-ju.

We find him not guilty.

-What? Not guilty? -This trial is concluded.

Good job. Well done, man.

You did great.

How does it feel to lose?

I'll appeal.

They say there's no hope for the stupid.

Did you forget what the judge said?

It's trial by evidence and you have no body.

Bring material evidence, not circumstantial nonsense.

No evidence now doesn't mean no evidence forever.

I'll find something before the appeal and lock you up.

-By the book. -Sure, whatever.

Whatever helps you sleep at night.

You follow your dear law.

I'll do whatever I want.

Prosecutor Ma.

CHIEF PROSECUTOR NAM SANG-HO

What will you do?

Type out a cause for appeal.

Over a drop of blood on his shirt when you don't have a body?

Please, Gang-uk…

You won't talk me out of appealing, will you?

Park Seung-jae's father, Assemblyman Park Jin-dong

is the ruling party's likely presidential candidate.

I already have my orders from above.

It's time to drop it.

Can't you back me up even a little?

I don't…

I really don't want to be petty and say this--

Not a word then. I'll recite your usual spiel.

The Daebak Savings Bank corruption case.

The YOLO City fraudulent estate sale case.

That's not all.

The Seojin Construction political bribery case.

Despite immense outside pressure,

you indicted them all and took them to court without batting an eyelid.

On top of that,

you maintained your stance and scored hefty penalties for them all.

You crazy bastard. You did all that on your own.

You did all the work and I took all the credit.

I admit that too.

But Gang-uk…

Forget everything else. Let me work according to the law.

Oh, gosh…

Man, my eyes hurt bad.

CRIMINAL PROSECUTION 12, CHIEF PROSECUTOR'S OFFICE

What will you do now?

Giving up…

is not an option. We should fight.

-Excuse me. -Sure.

MADAM PANG

Why is Madam Pang calling?

Hello?

Oh, that's today?

I'm a bit busy. Does the monk do remote prayers…

Could you go instead?

You see, I'm considering going to church.

I think it's best if you go.

Grandma.

Do it properly, with all your heart.

How much longer do I have to keep this up?

Hello, Venerable.

You just do as you're told.

I'm not saying I won't attend the service.

At least tell me who I'm praying for so I can--

Enough.

Madam Pang, I have a hunch.

-Is the person I'm praying for-- -Right.

I spoke to the chief monk already,

-so pay the temple office. -Yes, ma'am.

Oh, right.

I'll say it again, for your sake.

You must stay well away from women born in the year of the Black Monkey.

All right?

Black Monkey or White Monkey, I don't have the time to meet anyone.

What zodiac signs are you incompatible with?

Why do you ask?

Just so I know.

We can't have you meeting your soulmate only to find out you're incompatible.

You darn fool.

You can't talk like that at a temple.

-We're leaving. -Come on, it's harmless fun.

You're too cheeky for your own good.

What happened to the old man from before?

-Who? -It seemed to be going well.

You crazy fool.

Oh, welcome.

Where to, sir?

Sir?

Aren't you going home?

You won't stay on the Jang Eun-ju case, will you?

Not you too, Investigator Ko.

I mean, it's raining hard.

It's the perfect night for a nice drink.

It's raining hard, so why don't you just go home?

Have some quality time with your wife.

My wife says all she wants from me is confirmation that I'm alive.

Oh, dear. Is that why you're sulking?

Will you keep me company then?

I'm willing if you're buying.

I'm always free.

You never even suggest you'll buy.

Let's split the bill today. 50-50.

-Who pays 50? -What?

I pay 50, of course.

With our prosecutor's card.

You really won't join us, sir?

Oh, right.

The bathroom light is out.

Oh, that's right. Don't use the last stall.

-They say a ghost appears on rainy days-- -Get out of here already.

-Watch out. -The ghost harasses people.

-Don't drink too much! -I'm serious.

KEEP THE TOILET CLEAN TAKE ALL YOUR BELONGINGS!

This happens whenever it rains.

Damn it.

Who's there?

Don't use the last stall.

They say a ghost appears on rainy days.

Show yourself!

OUT OF ORDER, DO NOT USE

Where are we on the Jane Müller deal?

Yes, ma'am.

Jane Müller's a world-famous florist,

and we had some scheduling difficulties.

We were finally able to arrange a meeting.

-I'll organize your trip-- -Stop.

Maintain your distance.

I apologize, Ms. Cheon.

-I got carried away with the brief. -Catch me if you can.

Sweetie, are you all right?

Let's get you up.

I'm so sorry.

Let's go.

Ms. Cheon.

The chairwoman is asking for you.

-Here he comes. -How do you feel right now?

-Any comments? -What do you have to say?

-How do you feel? -Anything to say?

-Look at the cameras. -Pose for some photos.

First of all, I respect the judiciary's sensible decision.

I'm pleased the truth came out before it was too late.

I thank everyone who believed in me and waited for the verdict.

I'll do a full interview at a later date.

Are you satisfied with the verdict?

How will your career--

He was found not guilty.

Can I go ahead and marry him?

Negligence and embezzlement

come with the territory when you're in business,

but aren't you concerned he was charged with murder?

No, Chairwoman.

Come on, Grandma.

That brat clung to him like superglue,

then went into hiding when she couldn't get her way.

If you think about it, Seung-jae's a victim too.

It's not just about marriage.

It involves business interests too.

Our new resort needs building approval and it's in his father's constituency.

Postponing the wedding

might only delay our business plans.

We were discussing Ha-ri's marriage.

I asked you to join because we haven't met in a while.

What do you think about Assemblyman Park's son?

Does it matter what I think? Ha-ri's the one getting married.

Of course your opinion matters.

Our family is an economic unit.

If we're an economic unit, the wedding should happen.

That's your stance as an older cousin.

What do you think as a big sister?

If you want my opinion as a big sister…

I'll never accept a parasite like him.

You called him a parasite?

Isn't that a bit too harsh?

If Mr. Park's a parasite,

do you think his father is a host?

I don't like the sound of that.

I know you're just cousins, but you grew up together.

I say that because we grew up together.

To be honest, without his assemblyman father,

Mr. Park has nothing to offer.

How do you feel about him in relation to the ruling?

Frankly, the whole thing started

because Park Seung-jae dumped Jang Eun-ju for Ha-ri.

Ha-ri.

What's your charm?

Yeo-ri, what kind of question is that?

Our Ha-ri…

has her beauty.

Yes, I was born with a noble elegance.

I stand to inherit loads too.

Once a cheater, always a cheater.

If he were to come across an heiress with more pull,

Park Seung-jae will dump you for her.

Are you trying to keep me in check in case Seung-jae helps us

secure the resort license and boost my equity?

Ha-ri.

Let's see how things play out.

We'll wait and see.

Give me a moment, Yeo-ri.

The occupation rates

are holding up pretty well considering it's off-season.

The restaurants and banquet halls

are fully booked every day.

Siena Hall is the real problem.

Siena Hall…

It's not just a problem. It makes zero sales.

It's as good as a disaster.

It's not that bad.

It was every couple's dream venue before the renovation.

It was.

Until Cheon Yeo-ri wanted to be the first to get engaged after the reopening,

and ruined everything.

She ruined everything? How?

Her fiancé ran off right before the engagement.

Who'd want to marry there after the first couple broke up?

They say no couple that got engaged or married there

lasted more than two years.

That's how Siena Hall became Cheon Yeo-ri's most painful weakness.

It can't be great all the time.

Apart from Siena Hall, our sales are the highest in the area.

We couldn't have done that without Ms. Cheon.

That's true.

I must admit, she's a great businesswoman.

If only she were nicer to the people around her…

How long do we have to wait anyway?

It'll be here soon. You must be hungry.

I'm starving. Hurry up.

By the way, what happens to Siena Hall now?

I don't know.

I guess the chairwoman will make a call soon.

How about we use this building as something else entirely?

As an art gallery.

Siena Hall, you mean?

I was going to mention it at the strategy meeting in two days.

A gallery is a great idea. As expected, Grandma…

Chairwoman, I applaud your thought process.

Mom, it's what you always wanted.

-If you were to do that for me… -I can't accept that.

You know what this hall means to me.

My dad designed and built this place for my mom.

It can never be used for anything else.

In any case, Siena Hall is still part of the hotel.

A building that doesn't make money is just an eyesore.

That's what I still think and believe.

How about we have dinner together since it's been a while?

I'm sorry,

but my routine is to get home before dusk.

I didn't think

I'd actually become haunted because of you.

Siena Hall is the real problem.

How about we use this building as something else entirely?

As an art gallery.

Cheers.

Oh, gosh. Give me those.

We need a steady flow of cooked meat.

How many times did I tell you so?

Can't we eat raw fish too, every once in a while?

We're always eating pork skin and offal.

I can't take it anymore.

You don't know what you're talking about.

The internal organs taste best, Hyeong-min.

It's not good to eat too much food that's high in fat.

You need to watch your health.

Speaking of which, how many supplements do you take a day?

I used to take 12.

But I started taking spirulina, so it's 14 now.

If we civil servants want to live long enough

to claim a pension, we need to watch our health.

Exactly. To stay healthy, we must eat food that's good for us.

-…pro golfer Park Seung-jae -Mr. Ma. The omakase nearby…

will compete in the Astra Championship this week.

He was named as a suspect in the murder of his late girlfriend,

-but was found not guilty, -What?

-thereby clearing his name. -He went right back to playing golf?

He resumed training as soon as the verdict was announced,

-and is determined to return to… -Championship, my ass.

Be it a witness or an informant, I wish someone would come forward.

…focusing on improving his score.

As a likely winner of the tournament, Park Seung-jae--

ROUND 8 5 SONGS WITH LOCATIONS IN THE TITLE

You're hurting my eyes!

If you want to fiddle with the zipper, just do it all in one go.

You scared me by going bit by bit.

Even better, just knock.

I put up a wall because I was tired.

I'm not discriminating between ghosts.

Okay, fine.

I'll go. I'm going.

See? I'm off.

You went to death's door and back.

Do as they ask, if you can.

Help the ghosts.

Doing as they ask and helping them is the only thing

that will keep you alive.

It doesn't feel right to ignore her,

but helping them would be a hassle.

Let's go already.

-Can we please go home? -Wait.

Let's have one more drink. Just for another hour.

-Your wife will kill me. -Just another hour.

She won't kill you. I said I'd be late,

and she texted back saying she understood.

No way! Your wife's not like that!

Why don't you believe me? I'll show you the text.

-No, that's fine. -Don't bother.

No, why don't you both come to my place?

You haven't seen my wife in a while.

I'll say, "Honey, cook us something."

-We saw her not that long ago. -Oh, taxi!

-Let's go for a third round. -You need to go home.

-Get in quick. -Wait, I…

-I got slapped for coming alone. -Fine.

-No, you won't get slapped. -Just get in.

-Watch your head as you get in. -You might never see me again.

-Watch your head. -But I…

Go on home already.

-Take him home. -Wait!

-Here's the taxi fare. -Get in.

-Get home safely. -No, wait!

Oh, gosh…

He never knows when to stop.

Man, I'm exhausted.

-Where are you going? -I need to take a leak.

Come right back. We're leaving right away.

What should I get?

Give me a pack of those red cigarettes.

Hey, can you move your head?

I'm trying to park and you're blocking my view.

Is that the car?

I'm not the police.

I can't exactly do anything.

What was that?

Damn it.

Oh, come on.

-Are you all right? -Yes.

Those crazy bastards.

Step on it.

Who are you?

-Why did you jump into my car? -That was a hit-and-run.

I can help. Don't worry.

What makes you think I'm worried?

Huh?

What?

What are you doing here?

You're the one who jumped in. That was forced entry.

Start the car first. I'll help you.

Why do you keep saying you'll help?

I'll take care of it, so get out of my car.

Those two looked suspicious, okay?

They didn't just smell of alcohol.

If they're that suspicious, follow them in your own car.

I would if I could. I can't drive drunk!

I'm not some weirdo. Here.

Take a look. I'm a prosecutor.

Pretend you're assisting in a case and start the car.

Hurry! We might lose them!

They're stuck at a red light at the intersection up ahead!

Says who?

Darn it.

Hey, isn't that the car I reversed into?

You were right.

-Step on the gas. -Damn it.

See if you can turn left from here.

-I know a shortcut. -Okay.

Turning right from here.

What?

Why did you turn right? I told you to turn left.

Okay, then turn right up there.

-Where do I go now? Left? -What?

Don't you hear me?

You're sure, right?

A right turn, then left turn?

Are you serious? When did I say turn right then left?

I told you to turn left then right, or right then right again.

Be quiet, both of you!

I can't concentrate with you both shouting!

We lost them.

There's no teamwork here, just sabotage.

We're not a team.

We haven't lost them completely.

It's a straight road from here on out,

and there are shortcuts on the way, he says.

I say, I mean.

Who is she talking to?

This road…

You must stay well away from women born in the year of the Black Monkey.

All right?

This feels more like a shortcut to hell.

Hey, could you be a bit more careful?

Your driving…

The punk's a pretty good tail.

Get ahead of them.

Get into the other lane.

Step on it.

-How much? -Until I say stop.

Now!

That crazy…

Nice, we did it. High-five.

Damn it.

Stay in the car with the doors locked.

Hey, be careful.

Being a thug is all about the gear.

You don't just do hit-and-runs, do you?

You look like you rob people, at the very least.

Let's have you pay for what you did right away.

Prison is the place for you.

That's right. Fights are all about the gear.

Lend me a hand?

Well…

Call me if you need a witness to the hit-and-run.

Why don't you finish your official business first?

What…

Please, no!

Goodbye,

to a better place.

So it wasn't about the hit-and-run?

That's impossible.

What was that?

Who is she really?

She's no ghost, but she appears wherever I go.

What's wrong with this?

Huh?

What the heck?

What's going on?

Hey, Mr. Ma.

What was that?

Why am I even dreaming about her?

-Morning. -Hey.

-Mr. Ma. -Yes?

For the missing taxi driver case, the suspects were indicted for murder.

How did you catch them?

Well…

-Huh? -What? What are you doing here?

-Turn left. -Turning right.

-Turn right up there. -Left?

What?

We caught them and that's what matters.

Do we have surveillance footage for the Mt. Haewang body disposal case?

Something about that has been bothering me.

Do we have it yet?

About 30 minutes before the victim's phone was turned on,

someone placed a call from a nearby payphone.

Oh, they sent it over.

There.

-We only have a back profile. -Wait.

What is it?

The sneakers. Can you zoom in on them?

I'd recognize them anywhere.

How did they get a pair?

-What pair? -You don't know the brand?

Those cost a fortune.

How expensive could a pair of sneakers be?

-They cost at least ten million won. -What?

This model is a collaboration between Blenciaga and Nice.

Let me see.

F&F Black and White.

It's the limited edition.

Only three pairs were sold in Korea.

I think I've seen these somewhere.

You can't have.

You don't know anyone who could afford those.

Then again, there are lots of knockoffs too.

Your top looks like a knockoff.

What?

Gosh, what a flashy building.

I looked into the three people who bought those sneakers.

One flew to the US last month.

Another one was locked up six months ago for fraud.

The third and last one's a bit…

A bit what?

There's no point in even checking them out.

Heiress to Reina Group,

the nation's fifth-largest conglomerate,

and CEO of the most luxurious hotel in the country, Cheon Yeo-ri.

She has a strong aversion to meeting people,

so she rarely sits in meetings or does media interviews.

Only a few core hotel executives know what she looks like.

So Mr. Ma, if you go there without a warrant,

you'll get turned away before you set eyes on her.

Hello.

I'm Prosecutor Ma Gang-uk from Seoul Central District Prosecutors' Office.

I'd like to meet the CEO.

You can't request a private meeting with her.

What do I have to do then?

If you send an official request to the secretary's office,

they'll review it and get back to you.

Thank you.

We extend a warm welcome from Reina.

-Hello. -Hello.

Did you see a woman in a checkered outfit?

No?

Why is he coming after me?

What is this about?

She's so darn fast. Jeez.

Excuse me?

Hello?

Wait up!

Will you just…

What the… Are you serious?

Why is this hotel so massive?

Hey, wait. Can we just talk?

Why are there so many stairs?

Where'd she go?

He won't follow me in here, will he?

What's going on?

Why does he keep appearing wherever I go?

Is he stalking me?

Where did she go?

Why were you out so late?

I'm just asking.

I envy you for having plans after work.

Oh, don't worry. It wasn't a guy, okay?

You should date someone.

Will you set me up?

What? He didn't leave?

Did you see Cheon Yeo-ri yesterday?

"Stop. Maintain your distance."

-You sound just like her. -Don't I?

Was she always so hard to be around?

Yeah, I've been here for five years and she was like that then too.

She ignored a kid who fell right in front of her.

She ignores everything and everyone.

Is she a germaphobe? She's always wearing gloves.

Wasn't she pretending to be a European crown princess?

She's the worst.

I wish ghosts would drag away entitled people like her--

My gosh. Ms. Cheon.

"Ms. Cheon"?

-Oh, no. -What do we do?

Oh, my legs.

What is he doing here?

Why do we keep crossing paths?

Where am I?

I'm pretty sure she went this way.

CEO'S OFFICE

Hello?

No one's here.

What the heck?

SPOOKY IN LOVE

Park Seung-jae sunk thrilling shot after shot at the championship

and is now top of the leaderboard in the third round.

We must find something we might have overlooked.

Something to overturn the verdict in the second trial.

A smoking gun.

The truth is, Jang Eun-ju

came to our hotel before she went missing.

Could this be a coincidence?

Let's go for a three-way encounter.

So you're saying Jang Eun-ju is coming here?

Did we make contact?

What then? That would be a disaster.

Excuse me.

Did you and I…

You're not at all my type.

Who cares if he sees ghosts or not?
