Here. I'll lend it to you...

since I'm not sick anymore.

Now, you'll get better too.

(Turtle Hardware)

Excuse me.

I need to ask you something.

Excuse me!

What was that sound?

What happened here?

Philip! Are you okay?

Did you know this would happen too?

Well, yes.

You wrote something again, didn't you?

You did. You did write something.

Should I guess what that was?

Woman outside the window, breaking windows,

and Ra Yun looking in!

What is this? Who wrote this?

I didn't write this. Who was it?

Philip, that's not it.

Shouldn't you have warned me before writing that?

Couldn't you have told me to be careful?

Sorry.

I'm... I'm really sorry about that, but...

You're frightening.

Writers seriously make me sick.

Philip, are you hurt?

- Are you hurt? - You don't care...

if people die. You only care about your scripts.

What do you think you're doing?

Can't you see she's hurt?

Are you okay?

Who are you?

Who said you could come in?

I came to get Ms. Oh.

Let's go. You need a doctor.

Get out of my way.

I need to talk to her, so you need to go.

Ms. Oh didn't do it.

Why are you blaming her?

It's none of your business.

Before blaming others,

reflect on your own behaviour.

That woman who goes in and out of your house.

Control her first!

What do you mean? What woman?

The woman who just left your house.

Do you know how many times I saw her?

Let's go. Don't worry about this jerk.

Let's go.

Get back safely.

But how did that jerk know to come here anyway?

Will it scar?

It isn't a big wound.

She has many scars all over already.

Exactly.

Make sure she doesn't get a 101th scar.

Why are you being like that?

I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

Replace the bandage on her hand too.

Sure. Okay.

Seriously! That jerk.

I'm sorry.

He's talking about another jerk.

I see. Okay.

You don't need that jerk.

There are plenty of actors other than You Philip.

It's not because of the casting.

He has every right to get angry.

Don't do that.

Why do you always apologize...

when you're the victim?

It's so upsetting.

That woman you saw in front of Philip's house...

Never mind.

She isn't a ghost. She was a person.

How did you know that was my question?

I know.

And yes, she is a person.

I think they cracked and crumbled on their own.

They cracked on on their own?

If an external force was applied,

it would have been directional.

If someone threw something from outside,

the shards would've fallen inward.

If someone threw something from inside,

the shards would've fallen outward.

But they just crumbled downward.

That glass would not crack that easily.

They are tempered glass.

We'll need to investigate more closely.

We searched the house,

and there were no signs of forced entry.

Where are you going?

Philip!

(Turtle Hardware)

Where is she going at this hour?

She always does suspicious things.

She must research how to be more suspicious.

Where did this woman go?

Why couldn't she come here during the day?

Darn it.

Mom.

I must be a bad girl.

Eun Young died,

but I was so happy that I finally had a chance.

I must be being punished.

Mom.

I...

I don't think I should write anymore.

I waited so long...

I waited so long, but Mom...

I can't write anymore.

After eight years, the world...

finally started being nice to me, but...

But I think this is where my luck ends.

I killed Eun Young.

I...

Because I wrote that, she was cursed.

I think they're happening because I write them.

I'm afraid that everything...

in my head will become reality.

Mom.

What do I do?

I'm so scared, Mom.

I think...

I think another person will die.

I think that person will die.

I must write this script to live,

but I feel like...

that person will die if I write it.

What do I do?

What do I do?

You survived somehow.

What was that?

Am I hearing things now?

This place is too scary to come now.

You're alive, so you must have met...

that woman.

Gramps? From last time...

I thought you were a ghost.

Are you sure I'm human?

Sorry?

Forget it.

I won't be shocked anymore even if you are a ghost.

So many strange things have been happening,

so my heart got tougher.

I don't believe in ghosts,

and your predictions were all off.

You said I'm destined to die.

But look. I'm alive.

- You punk. - Why did you hit me?

You're alive, so someone else is dying!

Who's dying?

She's doing just fine.

Go see for yourself.

She's stronger than I am,

and she's doing much better.

Are only visible wounds considered as wounds?

Luck doesn't come all at once.

The same goes for misfortune.

Every time you avoid it, she gets struck with it.

And she gets more scars...

one by one on her body and in her heart.

The wounds on the body aren't the only wounds.

Just like you.

Let me ask you something.

If she takes my misfortune,

what happens to her?

You're supposed to die, so what do you think?

She'll die.

You're alive,

so someone else is dying.

(7: Change the Flow)

You're supposed to die, so what do you think?

She'll die.

Every time you avoid it, she gets struck with it.

And she gets more scars...

one by one on her body and in her heart.

When did she hurt her face?

- What are you doing? - What are you doing?

Here comes a water attack!

What?

He's even scarier when he's quiet.

Don't you need a doctor?

No, I'm fine.

You are not fine. You're bruised up.

I get hurt easily. So...

I have my own standards for going to the doctor.

If I get a fever, I go to bed.

If I bleed, I go to the pharmacy.

If I can't walk, I see a doctor.

So? Bruises and cuts aren't enough...

to go to a doctor?

I walk fine, right?

You know,

I think I know why you get bruised, cut,

and hurt all the time.

You have a curtain in front of your face,

so you can't see and bang into things.

My mother said...

a person needs light on their face...

in order to have a bright future.

My mom used to say something like that too.

Plus, a person should be...

prettier than the neighbourhood dog.

Right?

But...

how...

do I die?

Shin in "A Ghost's Love Story".

I don't know.

I tried writing...

about taking drugs,

being stabbed, and being shot.

I even wrote about him being struck by lightning,

but I haven't found the right one.

Regardless, I die somehow.

Is that why the title is "A Ghost's Love Story"?

Because the main character dies?

Well... That's not...

That drama.

Do you want to do it that badly?

Even if it means you'll die?

I'd sell my soul if I had to.

The problem is...

that no one will buy it...

even if I offer it for sale.

I'll buy your soul.

I'll...

do it.

What? What did you just say?

I said I'll do it.

The male lead, Shin.

In exchange, stay with me.

Move into my house,

and write in front of me.

- Pardon? - If that will tell me...

what will happen to me,

I need to know in advance.

Before you hand it over to the production team,

show me every single scene first.

That's my condition.

That... That's your condition?

And let's worry about our own selves.

Just let me know when I'm in danger.

You do the drama you want,

and I find out what I want in advance.

Isn't that fair?

If the drama ends safely,

you are free.

I won't nag you anymore.

This is how I'll repay you.

For the landslide...

and the necklace.

You have pretty lips too.

Why were you hiding them?

Let's trim your bangs a little.

That's enough.

(A Ghost's Love Story)

("You Philip Confirmed for 'A Ghost's Love Story'")

Finally. We're saved.

There were so many issues before it even began.

At this rate, it should be a huge hit.

Mr. Kang.

You startled me.

He's doing "A Ghost's Love Story"?

Are you out of your mind?

Out of my mind?

I haven't been in my mind since I started this.

You can't survive in this industry like that.

Don't you know what it's about?

If people find out about it, we're all done for.

- It's just a drama. - Mr. Kang!

Yoon Ah.

Grow up.

Philip is being attacked from all sides.

The cosmetics, outdoor, and car companies...

are all demanding to cancel their contracts.

They say he's the icon of misfortune.

You know how important a star's image is.

Thank goodness we announced...

he'd do the drama before Ms. Ki died.

He has nothing else to do.

Do you want us all...

to starve to death just because you're nervous?

You do what you're good at.

Playing dumb like you know nothing.

You've done it for eight years.

Hey.

Philip.

I...

won't be jealous no matter what woman is with you.

You're selfish, cowardly,

and say nasty things every time you open your mouth.

The world doesn't know that about you,

but I do.

Am I that big a jerk?

I know I'm the only one who can put up with you,

so I'm confident.

But... Oh Eul Soon...

It hurts my pride to even get jealous of her.

I don't know how to react to someone like that.

What is there to react to?

She's just a writer.

That's right.

She's just a writer.

But why do you want to bring her home?

Because it can provide...

a better environment for her to write.

That's all.

Even if I oppose?

You'll still have her move in?

Yoon Ah.

You don't need me anymore.

What?

You don't need to drink with people...

in the industry to get parts.

You're not the same Shin Yoon Ah who needed...

the shield of being You Philip's girlfriend.

So don't show your true colour because of a jerk...

who is selfish, cowardly, and says nasty things...

every time he opens his mouth.

Eul Soon.

- Help me. - Where are you?

Eun Young, where are you?

- Help me. - Eun Young?

Where are you?

Eun Young!

(No recent calls or messages)

Instead of killing Shin in the landslide,

you wrote that a popular writer died?

Yes. Initially,

the story was about Shin...

dying in a landslide and protecting...

the woman he loves.

But Philip got so upset,

so I removed that and killed the writer.

Then that changed the flow.

Since you killed the writer...

instead of Shin,

can't you change the flow again?

Yes.

That's it. Let's change the flow.

I need to change the flow.

(The writer used all her strength)

(Taking short, shallow breaths)

With the bright sun behind her,

she returns home.

(A Ghost's Love Story, Part 4)

A Ghost's Love Story, part four. The end.

Call everyone on the list.

Yes, sir.

I need the numbers for everyone on the list.

Who's that? Is it the President of Korea?

It's probably You Philip.

There have been so many accidents lately,

so his agency vamped up security.

Incredible.

Hello.

Hello, director.

Okay!

Good. Smile more.

Good.

Okay! Nice.

Give me a nice smile.

That's it.

Okay.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Keep a distance.

Philip. Ms. Oh really must be your lucky charm.

What?

How long has it been since you got a commercial?

Ever since you agreed to do the drama with her,

the commercial offers are flooding in.

Call Ms. Oh.

You called 10 minutes ago, and she bit your head off.

Who is this?

You starred in the drama, "The Ax of Truth",

last year, correct?

This is Lee Soo Jung,

Ms. Ki's assistant writer on the drama.

Don't you know her?

I don't know her.

I barely saw even Ms. Ki.

I may have met her at the finale party.

They would remember me,

but I can't remember them.

Is that right?

But on August 7, Lee Soo Jung...

had sent you a text message.

Philip, you're in danger. We need to meet.

I need to tell you something.

This again? It's so annoying.

I don't know that number.

She's the one who sent me that message?

But did something happen to her?

Why are detectives here...

Her body was found on Mount Uchi recently.

Mount Uchi?

The body that we thought as Ki Eun Young...

turned out to be her.

The body found on Mount Uchi was not...

that of Ki Eun Young,

but she has still not been located.

Although Ki Eun Young's murder case...

was converted into a missing person's case,

the police...

still have difficulties in finding her...

Hello, Mr. Lee.

because no records could be found.

- Yes, I just saw. - The large amount...

of blood found at the scene...

makes the police think that Ki Eun Young...

is unrelated to this case.

They will continue the investigation.

The body found on Mount Uchi turned out...

to be that of Lee Soo Jung,

Ki Eun Young's assistant writer.

The police say she was recently...

Do you like it?

Yes. I feel like it's really starting.

- I hope it goes well. - Director Lee.

- Here's the bound script. - Okay.

- Thank you. - Thank you.

Hey. The name is wrong.

(Script: Ki Eun Young)

I'm sorry. I'll reprint it.

No. No, it's okay.

That's a waste of paper.

I can just write in my name myself.

No, ma'am. I'll print a new set.

But it's really okay.

But...

do you think I really changed the flow?

We'll have to see...

if it was a coincidence, or if you really did it.

I keep seeing Eun Young in my dreams lately.

I never thought I'd miss her.

Ms. Oh. You really are a fool.

She betrayed you and stabbed you in the back.

Why are you worried about her?

It would've been the same if it were you.

Knowing someone's death ahead of time...

is something unbearable.

Plus, I understand her.

No matter how much I hate her,

I know how hard it must have been...

for her.

Turn off the music.

My nerves are about to snap.

Okay.

Got it.

And the light.

Just a minute.

Do you have a brain?

- Just dim it. - Okay.

What... What is it?

Is something else annoying you?

You! You! You're annoying me!

Okay. Then I'll write at home.

Eul Soon!

Please.

Please save me.

Please?

Ms. Ki once told me...

that she envies writers who enjoy writing.

There's a writer like that.

Someone who writes as if she is possessed.

Every letter I write is painful...

as if I were throwing up blood,

but she types away as if her fingers are motorized.

Since I put in...

all my effort and energy,

shouldn't my script be more fun?

But...

hers is better.

It's not much when you read it,

but she wrote it easily while enjoying herself.

It's annoying.

She must have been talking about you.

And I envied her.

Are we doing the outdoor shoot now?

Yes, but what is all of this?

Are you going away?

No.

I'm moving into Philip's house today.

I agreed to live there until the drama ends.

Excuse me? What do you mean?

That was his condition.

Living in his house, and writing there...

since something dangerous may happen to him.

What? Must you...

move into his house in order to do that?

Well, I understand why he's anxious, so...

Seriously, Ms. Oh! Are you stupid?

How could a woman move into a man's house?

His manager lives there too.

Fine. A house with two men. A woman alone?

How will you ensure your safety?

I'm strong.

Seriously.

He's impossible.

That was his condition.

I cannot permit that.

You can't move into that house!

Why are you back?

Did Philip change his mind?

Did he tell you to just leave?

Well,

I didn't know,

but I think I have a knight in shining armour.

Hi.

What are you doing here?

Did you renovate?

This is Ms. Oh's room.

I need to make sure she's comfortable here.

Did you discuss it with the homeowner?

I'm sure the owner would be happy to have...

the old house renovated.

That's your assumption.

Pardon?

I'm sorry.

You brought in all this expensive equipment,

but Ms. Oh cannot move in.

What? Why not?

Because I won't permit it.

Why do we need your permission?

As the director of "A Ghost's Love Story",

I can't permit scandals between the writer...

and the lead actor...

living together before the drama even starts.

"Living together"?

I can't permit that attitude either.

True. Since you had no respect,

you thoughtlessly asked...

a female writer to move into your house.

Ms. Oh Eul Soon...

is a single woman.

I'm not blind. I know that too.

You knew and requested that disgusting condition?

This is clearly...

illegal confinement...

by using your authority over her.

Disgusting?

Then you can just leave this project.

I will bring Ms. Oh here.

Is that right?

In that case,

why don't you move out first?

What?

This...

is my house.

What are you talking about?

The owners of this house...

are a 60-something YOLO couple living abroad.

And I'm their only child.

I inherited it last month.

This is my house.

(Property Registration Certificate)

You didn't need to bring anything.

Here. The meeting may run long, so...

But are you really okay?

About what?

I feel bad going into a woman's home.

It's better than camping out at a café for hours.

But...

There's something I've been wanting to ask.

What is that place?

There?

Well...

It was a dumpling place, but they closed down.

Then where is the owner now?

She passed away.

Eul Soon.

Eul Soon.

What is it?

Did your parents not come home again?

The cook suddenly quit,

so Mom and Dad have to work until morning.

I see.

Okay.

Come sleep with me.

Sleep tight, my baby Sung Joong

Eul Soon.

Close your eyes if you want to sleep.

Eul Soon. Can I tell you a secret?

Of course. It's just you and me here.

- Well... - Yes?

It isn't just you and me.

What?

There are people lingering here.

I see them.

That's right. Ms. Oh.

Yes?

Have you ever seen a ghost?

A ghost?

No.

But I have seen a kid who sees ghosts.

He was a tenant in our house long ago.

Really?

He was super scary.

His parents were busy,

so I slept with him pretty often.

But he'd keep saying things like...

"Eul Soon,"

"I see people lingering here."

It was so...

I wonder how he's doing.

Hey.

The truth is...

Yes?

Well...

What is that?

Where is that coming from?

Stop.

An eye for an eye.

A certificate for a certificate.

You'll address me as your landlord now.

I own this building.

Why, that jerk...

What is this? Seriously?

Hey. What... What are you doing here?

This was empty for years.

Isn't it up to the owner to decide...

whether it's inhabitable or not?

Don't you agree, Mr. Landlord?

What? What does he mean by "Mr. Landlord"?

Sorry? It's nothing.

I'll explain later.

Darn it.

Philip, please leave, okay?

You have a mansion. What are you doing here?

That's why I want to fix it first.

Okay. Make this a study.

A bar would be perfect there.

And... Where should the bedroom go?

In this tiny rat hole?

A bar, a study, and a bedroom?

You can put down marble tiles, right?

What? Marbles? Give me a break.

This building is 20 years old.

It'll collapse!

No, it wouldn't.

Ms. Oh. Your first floor is vacant, right?

What if I move in there?

No.

I will not permit subletting.

I own the building, you see.

Fine. Do as you please.

I warned you. Remember that.

Why are you being so immature?

You started it by ordering me around...

because you were my landlord.

Do you think you can adjust to living here?

You must not know where I came from.

I climbed my way up from the bottom, okay?

You have no idea...

how low...

Help. I'm here.

I'm here.

Help me.

Help me.

Help me.

Please pull me up.

Give me your hand.

My hand?

No.

If I extend my hand, I'll fall through.

No. No. I can't.

Really? Then... What should we do?

That's right. Raise both arms...

so you can fall through.

Who knows what's under me?

What if I sprain my ankle?

What if I scratch my face?

I told you, didn't I?

I said it would collapse.

Ms. Oh. You can do it, right?

Darn it.

Push me up.

Push me up.

Darn it.

Fine. I'll push you up,

so please just go home. Okay?

Why should I? This is my home.

I bought this building.

You're my tenant.

Hey. Hey, you jerk.

Pull me up, will you?

Why you... You punk. You think this is funny?

You think this is funny, right?

Just wait.

When you're at your lowest,

I'll laugh in your face!

Sure.

My goodness.

So how's the script coming along?

It's 2am.

It's time to sleep.

Go to sleep first.

Your mother is so selfish.

She was so beautiful.

Why did she raise her daughter like this?

Seriously...

That was a compliment.

That your mother was beautiful.

When...

did your mother pass away?

She didn't.

All moms never die.

We're just apart temporarily.

I see.

When I was 10,

I was temporarily separated from my mom.

But my life...

got better afterwards.

But when did you win...

that gold medal?

It was during the 2002 World Cup, so...

I think I was 18 years old.

(National High School Female Judo Competition)

Yes. Gold medal.

That was the happiest moment in my life...

since my mom was there.

That's when my father passed away.

We're complete opposites.

When I enjoyed my heydays,

it was the absolute worst for you,

and when it was the absolute worst for me,

it was your heydays.

That's right. My necklace.

Philip. How did you know that was a necklace?

When I was 10 or so,

I gave it to a boy.

- Was that... - That?

I was wrong.

It wasn't mine.

What?

Then give it back.

I lost it.

Why did you take something not yours...

and lose it?

Anyway, when did you get that burn scar...

on your face?

It's late. Go to sleep.

I'm really curious about something.

I'll sleep if you answer me that.

When did you start writing?

Why did you decide...

to write? It's such a hard life.

Eul Soon. You must be bored.

Yes.

Daddy's almost done, so wait just a bit more.

- Okay. - Good.

See you.

A white sheet of paper.

That sheet of paper...

was the only toy I had.

So I drew and wrote...

everything I wanted to have,

do, and be on that...

- sheet of paper. - A long time ago,

there was a beautiful princess.

That made me happy.

Writing...

doesn't cost money, and nothing is impossible.

But...

why did you become an actor?

Philip?

Philip?

He's asleep already?

(Year 2002)

(Eul Dumplings, Dongchi-dong)

(Eul Dumplings)

Hot.

Mom.

Mom!

Mom!

Mom!

My daughter's home.

- Did you have a good day? - Yes.

Really? What did your teacher say?

- He said I'll make it. - Did he really say that?

Good.

To make her see her son on TV...

and miss him for the rest of her life.

Just like I did,

I wanted to make her unable to talk to him,

unable to touch him,

and miss him for the rest of her life.

That's why I became an actor.

(Turtle Hardware)

("A Ghost's Love Story" Press Conference)

Why am I suddenly reminded of that incident?

Ms. Oh.

Let's go in.

We will now begin the press conference...

for KBC's new drama, "A Ghost's Love Story".

We have the lead actor, You Philip,

the newly added writer, Oh Eul Soon, and...

the production director, Lee Sung Joong, with us.

First, we'll hear a few words from the director.

Hello, I'm Lee Sung Joong, the production director.

It's an honour to work with...

a talented writer and great actors.

I'll do my best so that...

our drama will be the best drama of 2018...

not only within KBC, but in the nation.

Thank you.

Look. There's a writing.

What's wrong with her?

This is the first time for Ms. Oh attend here,

so she must be nervous.

I was just told that a surprise guest...

has joined us.

Shin Yoon Ah.

(Marriage announcement)

No.

Don't do it.

(Shin collapses)

We're...

- getting married. - What?

- What did she say? - I love you.

What's going on?

No!

It's me.

It isn't Shin Yoon Ah! It's me!

- I... - What? What's you?

You Philip isn't marrying Shin Yoon Ah.

He's marrying me!

It's me! Not Shin Yoon Ah!

Take my pictures instead!

What is she talking about?

Take my photos!

Take my photos!

- Ms. Oh. - Ms. Oh.

Are you insane?

We're getting married!

- I love you. - What are you...

Here.

Here are your dumplings.

Eat with me.

You must be tired from working out. Eat up.

Here.

Eul Soon.

(Lovely Horribly)

Is what Oh Eul Soon said true?

What is this mess?

- Ms. Oh. - Yes?

Here's the file on Oh Eul Soon as requested.

Who could it be? Who's trying to kill Shin?

Where's the car's dash cam?

Something is off.

It's too alike. How they die and the location.

How did she write this?

She was there on the day of the fire.

Ms. Oh was behind it all?
