Original subtitles

Why did they go without telling us?

I feel betrayed

that those closest to us are trying to take the mask.

How would he make it ashore

without…

The Melo pearl.

To the beauty

that will remain with you forever.

If what you described in your dreams is true,

then you are that woman.

Botun!

Because the dreamcatcher is torn.

From the legend, could the outlaw leader

who stole the mask

actually be…

Payu in his previous life?

Grandpa Duang must've named the phenomenon that occurs twice a year,

and every 19 years, "Dual second lunar zenith."

After all the fantasy stuff we've seen,

might as well see what turns up in our dreams.

Hey!

Good thing you're handsome…

Hey. Who are you? How did you get in here?

Did you hear what I said?

Grandpa Duang?

But he can't see us.

Poe.

Is that you?

Grandpa Duang.

Hey.

So that means my theory

was right! Woo!

Wait, wait.

Why are you so excited?

Well…

Grandpa Duang.

Grandpa.

-Hey. -Yeah?

But how come

we're in the same dream?

Yeah.

Big Bro!

Big Bro!

We're going to be rich!

Hey!

Poe, my buddy!

The millionaire from the West

just announced a handsome reward

for anyone who can catch a real mermaid.

Let's head out to sea and catch one!

Mermaids aren't real. That's a waste of time.

We won't know unless we try.

And I've got the traps ready.

Well, I'm off then.

Bye-bye!

Huh.

Still the same old Poe.

A drunk from youth to old age.

Look at him.

Are we traveling back in time through a dream?

Hey.

Isn't it just like

when I dreamed of Payu?

It's basically me

traveling through the past.

But it wasn't actually the past belonging to Payu and me.

Get that?

So you and the woman named Botun

just look alike.

Yeah.

But you're not the same person?

That's right.

Wow.

Why are you smiling?

What smile?

-You just smiled. -What? I didn't.

What?

Are you happy that I'm not involved with Payu anymore?

-Whatever. -Aw. "Whatever"?

Always acting cool.

You snore like a freight train.

You wouldn't notice even if a mermaid did get caught.

Boss! Something's caught in our net!

It must be a mermaid! Let's go look.

-Rung! -Chalarm!

-Chalarm, wake up. -Chalarm!

It's noon! The sun is high in the sky! Chalarm, wake up,

-or I'll throw you in the sea! -Rung!

-Chalarm! -Rung, wake up. Chalarm--

-Yiiwa. -Grandpa Duang's house?

We're…

out of the dream now, aren't we?

Just now, in my dream,

I saw Grandpa Duang and Poe when he was young.

I did too.

Huh? You two had the same dream?

Hey. What if you use the glowing roots too often

and get trapped in a dream?

-Why are you blushing? -I'm not blushing.

-Whoa. -What's with this strong wind?

-Damn it! -Huh?

I just hung out the clothes!

Huh?

-Rung, help me grab the clothes-- -Let's go.

No, Plew, let's go grab the clothes!

-Or we won't have anything to wear! -Yeah!

The clothes aren't dry yet.

-I've got nothing left to wear! -Careful!

Geez.

The Sea God refuses to open the path.

Damn it.

How long are we going to wait?

Treasure hunters don't fear the wind and waves.

If the path doesn't open, then just sail through it.

Even as a child of the sea,

I still need to stay sensible.

If we set sail now,

the boat will break apart. Let's wait for the sky to clear first.

Otherwise, we definitely won't reach Paradise Island.

Hey.

Are you hungry?

We don't have any equipment. Eat this for now.

Japanese style, just like sashimi!

She's devouring it like a vacuum!

But she doesn't even eat raw food.

Here, take a sip before you choke.

Go on, take a sip.

What was that?

Definitely not a dog. A wild boar?

We can roast it to kill time. You cut off its front,

I'll take the rear. Go, go! Hurry!

It's as quiet as a deserted island. Are you sure…

Payu's men brought us to the right place?

We're in the right place,

but my men haven't come ashore yet. I don't see them anywhere.

The storm likely turned them around.

And there's Gaolek. Maybe he got lost in the woods.

Are we still far from Paradise Island?

I don't know.

No one has ever braved the storm to reach Paradise Island.

Nobody makes it past this deserted island.

Payu said a guide would be waiting for us, but I don't see anyone yet.

If it weren't for that knife, you'd be at the bottom of the sea.

Did you really think

possessing a woman could keep you hidden?

Sarai…

-Where is it? -You alone

can't do a thing to me.

Your soul will perish

and be trapped on this island

without this Melo pearl.

Give it back and go back to serving our boss.

No!

Too bad the wild boar got away,

but I got bananas instead.

What's all that noise?

The noise is right here.

Mook!

Where are you?!

This body is so weak.

Ah!

You can't escape.

Give back the pearl and the other thing.

I'm not giving it to you. The mask has to be mine!

See you on Paradise Island.

What the hell?

Was that out of spite?

Hey.

That's enough trips to get water at the waterfall.

Why is all the hard work always dumped on me?

Why are you even complaining?

We did rock-paper-scissors. You got this task yourself.

That's true.

I'm going to go to bed now.

So sleepy.

Hey, stop right there, you monkey boy.

Monkey boy.

What?!

How can you go to bed like this? Go take a shower first.

You're covered in sweat.

Planning to hit the sack without showering? Ew, that's gross.

Hurry. Just go.

Always nagging and fussing around.

Whoever marries her is screwed. Absolutely screwed!

I told you to take a shower, not to sit there!

Plew.

Go take a shower! Don't sleep yet.

You monkey boy!

Monkey boy.

Plew.

Plew.

Plew.

Plew…

Hey, what are you doing here?

Why haven't you gone back to your room?

Well, I was thinking that

since we're sharing the same dreams,

I might as well wait here. It'll be more convenient.

Want to be in a dream with me that bad?

No way. Who'd want to be in a dream with you?

What about this?

-What? -You prepared this?

It was already there.

What are you doing?

Go lie down in your own room.

So territorial, huh?

I'm not lying down. I'm just sitting here.

Want me to light it?

Really?

I'm in a dream, aren't I?

So where is Rung?

Rung!

Rung!

Back as a pair as usual…

but I almost kicked the bucket!

Hey, wait.

How did you end up like that?

As soon as I got here,

I fell into the water over there.

Good thing it was shallow, or I'd be a goner.

Why didn't you land in the water?

Serves you right.

Just stop it.

I'm getting it all out. Just a little more.

Come on, you poor, soaked puppy.

Wait up.

Hey, you think you came alone?

What?

Hey.

Who are you? How did you get to this island?

Only Big Bro and I

know the way to Paradise Island.

Talk! Are you two human

or ghosts?!

We're human. A million percent human! Just look at us.

You can touch us if you want. Poe, buddy.

Listen. I just told you that

our boat was blown to this island by a storm.

-Damn it. -Oh my God.

Who are you calling buddy?

Wait.

How do you know me?

Gotcha.

You guys are ghosts!

No, we're not.

Well, earlier, Grandpa--

…that guy

just called you Poe, so I called you that too.

Really.

Done staring? Do I look like your family elder or something?

Huh?!

Yes.

You look exactly like someone I know.

Yeah.

-See? Is there anyone-- -Stop!

Take it easy, alright?

I was going to say, is there really anyone

who doesn't know Duang and Poe,

the legendary treasure hunters of the Star Sea? Am I right?

Yeah?

They still seem suspicious. Could they be

working for Mr. Kim? Did he send them after you?

Maybe

Grandpa Duang has already stolen the mask

from Mr. Pichai's father.

Mr. Kim put out word

that whoever gets the second mask piece

back from you

will get a huge reward.

That's why everyone on the island got the wrong idea.

I don't care if anyone thinks I'm a thief.

If only I knew where the mask was…

so I could wish back

my lost heart and soul.

Chalarm and Rung are still asleep.

They were using the glowing root-infused candles again.

I bet they're addicted to them.

That's what I thought.

-Yii. -What?

What's that?

Hey, isn't that a person, Plew?

-A person? -Hey!

Let's help her. Hurry!

Mook!

Is she still alive?!

Oh?

What is this place?

Yeah.

Hey, I know this place.

This is the innermost part of Paradise Cave.

Sai took me here before we went back to Laydao last time.

Someone's singing.

Hey.

Hey.

Do you know this song too? How did you hum it right?

I don't know.

It just popped into my head.

Don't.

Do not trespass into lands where humans should never tread.

Seriously? I woke up like this again?

I didn't even get to ask him.

-Hey. -Yes?

Have you met him before?

Yes, I've seen him in my dreams.

Who exactly is he?

I wonder too.

According to legend,

the ones responsible for guiding souls from these waters

to the next realm are…

The Star Sea tribe.

That's right.

He just said,

"Do not trespass into lands where humans should never tread."

What do you think it means?

He tried to warn us about something.

-Warn us? -Chalarm!

-Chalarm! -Chalarm!

-Chalarm! -Chalarm! Rung!

Help!

-Mook?! -Mook!

-Found you! I wondered where you went. -Hey!

You scared me. Thought you were Mook.

Geez. Oh?

Mr. Pichai? What are you doing here?

Are you changing your oil

or starting a romance here?

I shouldn't have asked to come on this adventure with you.

When will I finally get to see Chalarm?

Well…

Is he really our guide?

Only Poe and Headman Praow's family know the way to Paradise Island.

Poe.

-Yes, sir. -Come here.

Here, Mr. Pichai.

There's no ice cream,

so take these banana sticks for now.

You can grill them.

I don't know if it's a coincidence,

but I have tons of your favorite booze on my boat.

-Really, sir? -It's all yours. Interested?

Yes, yes.

But I want something in return.

I'm all ears.

You have to take me and Ms. Lukpad to Paradise Island.

Paradise Island?

Yeah, no problem.

-You've got it, sir. -Great!

Chalarm calling Uncle Poe.

Chalarm calling Uncle Poe. Chalarm calling Uncle Poe.

I can't get through to Uncle Poe's boat.

Yiiwa, how's Mook?

Still asleep. She must be really tired.

Wait a minute.

Mook left on the boat with Poe.

How come she's here by herself?

Or did a storm hit Uncle Poe's boat

and wreck it?

Uncle Poe knows these waters inside out.

He'll be fine.

-Don't be such a scaredy-cat. -But I'm scared for him.

Whose bag is that?

It's Mook's.

What do we do?

-Wait, wait, wait. -Plew!

What are you doing? It's rude to go through someone's stuff.

Screw that. I'm going to see what's inside.

Hey, it's rude, Yii.

The mask!

Oh, what's this?

I'M ON PARADISE ISLAND - MOOK

Mook. Mook?!

Hey. This is crazy!

Hey.

We showed up here again. Remember?

The same place?

So, what did your grandpa catch last time?

-Boss! Something's caught in our net! -There!

Hey. Listen.

This is what's called a lucid dream. Ever heard of that?

It's when you're aware you're dreaming

but you can still keep dreaming it.

Wow, wow, wow!

It's definitely a mermaid!

I'm gonna be Millionaire Poe.

Wow.

Oh, she's just a human?

I don't see her mermaid tail.

Sai?

I think she's mute, Big Bro.

Poe.

Big Bro!

She's totally out, like her battery died.

What a backstabbing friend she is.

I never thought Mook would betray us.

Why steal the mask and get Chalarm in trouble?

But she seems different lately.

Could she be in love?

Do you even know what it's like to be in love?

Huh?

I do.

When you're in love,

you'd do anything for the person you love.

You might not even know

when it happens

or how it starts…

but before you know it…

they're all you think about…

and all you want to look at.

Go. Get out of here.

Let's wait until Mook wakes up to ask about the mask. Go!

Plew

and Yiiwa…

-Hey. -Hmm?

If Sai already met Grandpa Duang,

then how old is she now?

Right?

Maybe she's now…

An antique like this…

Whoa, it must be around 40 years old.

Oh my God.

Sorry, how long have you been in here?

And how do you look so young?

Shouldn't she be in her seventies?

I've been acting so casual with her this whole time.

Chalarm.

Why is this scene so familiar to me?

I bet your grandpa drew these pictures.

Looks just like a couple.

I remember now! Look.

It's one of the drawings in Grandpa Duang's notebook.

Do you remember? This scene.

Is the woman in these drawings your grandmother?

No idea. I've never seen her face.

That means they know each other.

Hey, I told you,

Sai is definitely from the Star Sea tribe.

I remember now.

Sai once said

she was trapped

or waiting for someone

but that she didn't know who.

So, why is Sai trapped in the sea maze?

Don't scare a scaredy-cat like me.

I'm too tired for this. What the hell?

Don't.

Please don't be what I think it is.

I'm scared to even turn around.

Screw it.

Plew!

It's me!

Getting all cozy out in the sun, aren't you,

-Chalarm? -Finally back, monkey boy?

-What? -Uncle Poe!

How could you and Mook steal Mr. Pichai's mask

and let Chalarm take the fall?

Enough! You'll run out of breath.

It was Mook!

I don't know where she got it.

She talked me right into this.

The smell…

It's the smell of scented candles

made from the glowing root!

She drifted right off.

Rung.

Chalarm--

-Chalarm. -Chalarm did too.

Are you…

a good person?

You still haven't told me who you are,

which island you're from, or if you're a mermaid.

I don't know.

Or perhaps,

you're from the legendary Star Sea tribe.

Take it.

For treating my wound.

Is that the glowing root?

You know,

I feel like I'm watching

a romantic series right now.

Grandpa Duang

is definitely flirting with Sai. Don't you think?

Glad you're alright.

You scared

the daylights out of me.

I thought something terrible happened. Geez.

Still, it makes me wonder

who on earth brought you here.

Grandpa…

I have to tell everyone…

everything that happened.

If you tell anyone,

I'll make sure you have no one left.

Gonhin…

Not a single one.

Don't you dare harm Grandpa and my friends.

Get out of my body right now.

Get out!

No!

Not until I get what I want.

Not until I get what I want.

My head is spinning.

Humans never heed warnings

against entering a realm where they do not belong.

I didn't mean to trespass.

And I'm deeply sorry.

My dream brought me here without my knowledge.

Could you tell me

what these 18 stones are?

The Dual Second Lunar Zenith Calendar.

Every 19 years,

the human realm and the realm of the immortals

align.

The immortals?

Who are you referring to?

The Star Sea tribe,

guardians of the ocean,

guides the souls of all beings to the next realm.

And this year…

marks another 19-year cycle.

What is this place?

How did I get here?

Chalarm.

Chalarm!

My hairpin?

How is it here?

I gave you

that silver hairpin myself.

It's getting warmer.

It's never been this warm.

Or…

is something happening to Rung?

Let me go.

Let go.

Hey, let go.

Rung.

Rung! Rung!

The world you see in your dream

is a realm your souls wandered into.

You mean

Rung and I strayed into someone's dream?

Whose dream is it?

When are they gonna wake up?

Chalarm.

-Chalarm. -Chalarm!

Rung.

Chalarm. Rung.

Can you stop scaring me?

Hey…

Chalarm. Chalarm!

I have to hurry and help her.

Your souls connect to your bodies.

Whatever happens to you here

will affect your real-world bodies as well.

-Hey! -Whoa.

Rung! Rung!

What's going on?

Why…

Why is Rung choking on water? What do we do?!

Sir.

Could you please show me the way?

How can I get out of here?

O descendants of the Sea God…

As long as your resolve is firm,

the currents, like the lifeblood

and gateway of the spirit,

will lead you through these waters…

You are to remain with me

forever!

No. I'm not Botun.

I've never given my heart to anyone, except…

Rung!

Rung. Rung!

Rung! Rung.

Rung, wake up!

Rung.

Rung, wake up! Rung!

Hey, Chalarm! Chalarm!

-Rung, wake up! Rung! -Chalarm!

Chalarm!

Rung…

Come here.

Her soul… and body…

will part.

Can you help her?

-Please help her. -She's our friend,

and yours too. Please don't let her die.

Yes.

Please, Rung. You can't die.

I haven't told you that I--

The song…

Even if I have to give my life, I'm taking it back!

Return the mask and leave.

Or is this the reason

why Sai is stuck in the sea maze?

To guard the mask pieces.

Gonhin!

Want to find it fast? Come with us then.

Mr. Pichai.

If you've been here all this time,

have you ever met a man named Duang here,

-19 years ago? -That's not Mook.

It's Gonhin, the ghost possessing her.

It wanted to sneak its way onto this island.

Don't let them take the mask.

Must leave… the island…

In these waters…
