Sae-young.

Are you out of your mind?

Do you want to get approval on this?

I'm sorry.

What's the use of having a college degree?

You don't know how to work Microsoft excel or powerpoint.

I'm sorry.

Is that all you know how to say?

No.

At least you don't talk back...

- I'll try harder next time. - When is next time?

What do you mean, next time?

This is due by 8pm tonight.

Can you finish all this in time?

I will try my best.

Try? Then why didn't you “try” from the very beginning?

I will try harder than earlier.

How are you going to do that?

Excuse me?

I want to know how hard you can to work.

Can you put your life on the line?

My life?

What, are you scared?

If you can't put your life on the line,

it doesn't mean you're really willing to try.

You're unbelievable.

Does it bother you?

You don't have what it takes to do well.

Alright. If putting your life on the line is too much,

then how about your finger?

My finger?

Yes. Betting a finger should be much better, right?

Yes, okay. I will bet my finger.

It's a deal then.

If you don't finish by 8pm,

then you forfeit one of your fingers.

Okay.

What are you doing?

If you value your finger, you should get to work now.

I….

What now?

If I finish my work in time,

what are you going to sacrifice?

What are you talking about?

I think you should

bet your finger as well.

Are you kidding me?

Fine. You want to cause havic?

It's havoc.

What?

It's havoc, not havic.

Look at you… Do I look that easy to you?

Judging from your silence, you must think I look easy.

Fine. I put my finger on the line. All good?

Yes, ma'am.

That's ridiculous.

I'm speechless.

I know. Talk about common sense.

Tell me about it.

I think when recruiting new employees,

they need to have a full psychiatric evaluation.

There are so many crazy people

who look normal on the outside.

You guys can't be serious about all this right?

Min-ho, are you taking Sae-young's side right now?

No, no…. That's not it.

To tell you the truth,

I heard something about her.

What is it?

She really liked this one guy in college.

But the thing is, she stalked him like crazy.

Really? What did she do?

She would wait all night in front of his house,

and even snuck inside once.

Oh my… That's creepy.

Min-ho, you should be careful.

Me?

You don't know?

She has been sending you signals.

No way.

Sometimes you can be so dull.

A girl knows what another girl is thinking.

Anyway, there was something about her

that made me not like her.

It's like some kind of evil aura around her.

Why? Did something happen?

Well…

the day after she joined our company…

Are you left-handed?

What? Oh, yeah…

You must have had it hard in your childhood,

You know, everyone treats

left-handed people like aliens.

Yeah, I guess…

I'm left-handed as well.

My classmate who sat next to me asked the teacher if she could

move away from me because I was left-handed.

But I really liked sitting next to her.

So I prayed everyday.

Prayed? So that your classmate wouldn't change seats?

No. I prayed that her right hand would disappear.

And to my surprise,

a few days later, my wish came true.

What?

She got into an accident

and her right arm got crippled.

Are you serious?

After I heard that story,

I was totally creeped out.

Do you think she can finish all her work by 8pm?

I don't know. We'll see.

I think its highly unlikely.

If she succeeds, I'll eat my hat.

Be careful,

what if she really feeds you the hat?

Why am I gagging?

Maybe I need to have an endoscopy.

- How is work coming along? - Good.

- Do you have a different job at night? - Excuse me?

I mean, for a girl, you have rough hands.

It looks like you work at a construction site.

- Miss Han. - Yes?

- You must be happy. - What about?

The other team members really like you.

Yeah, I guess that's true.

I am envious of that.

- Min-ho? - Yes?

Wasn't it your birthday not too long ago?

Happy Birthday!

Oh, thank you. You shouldn't have…

Open it.

I hope you like it.

Oh, it's pretty.

Thank you. I'll put it to good use.

Sae-young, you have outstanding taste.

Where did you find such a pretty cup?

I agree. Min-ho, you must be really happy.

Yeah, you're so popular.

As it happens, I could do with some coffee.

Do you mind if I use this cup?

I guess she does mind.

But it's Min-ho's cup now,

so he can decide, right?

Well, I… I guess…

Right? Then I'll just have one cup.

Oh no…. I guess the cup was too heavy.

You should have bought a lighter one.

Seriously.

Are you okay, Lee-sun?

I am okay but I feel bad for Min-ho.

No… that's okay.

You're bleeding.

Do you know how important lips are to women?

You should take care of them. Come.

Now you look more like a woman.

You keep it.

Thank you.

Why are you so nice to me?

I don't know.

As I told you last time,

you can get an unconditional loan

from $30,000 up to $50,000 on the same day.

Do you understand what I am saying?

- Do you like me that much? - Excuse me?

I told you I am not interested.

I told you not to call me like this.

We just want to let you know about

our helpful financial service.

You live in the Hyundai Villa right?

And your husband has a vegetable stand in Bulgwang.

What?

You have a 5 year old daughter.

Let's see what was her name... Go-eun?

What the... Who are you?

If you call me one more time,

something very interesting will happen to you.

What now? You want to call me again and find out?

You psycho!

Pizza tastes the best when you buy it for us.

At least try to keep a straight face when you're lying.

That ring… Is it new?

Oh this?

I bought it yesterday with my friend in Garosu Street.

It's gorgeous, right?

Do you want to try it on?

Really? Can I?

Of course…

Wow, it looks good on you.

You can have it.

Really? Can I really have it?

Yes, I think the ring has found its rightful owner.

Yeah? It's as if this ring is the One Ring then.

Yes, the One Ring….

Min-ho, what do you think about this ring?

Sae-young, come eat some pizza!

Sae-young, do you still not have a boyfriend?

I don't…

Why? You're exactly what most guys are looking for.

Cute and petite.

Right, Lee-sun?

There must be a reason that

we don't know about I guess.

Maybe she has personality issues…

or sexual issues.

Is that true?

- What about you, Ms. Han? - What do you mean?

Do you have a boyfriend because

you have a great personality? Or because are you good at sex?

Or is it that since you have a boyfriend,

your personality and sex skills increased?

Hey. You're being really rude.

I'm just jealous. That's all.

Sorry if I upset you.

By the way, is your boyfriend still unemployed?

What? Who… who said that?

Doesn't your boyfriend work at that

famous production company?

It's been 3 months since he was fired. Right?

As far as I know, he was let go because he was

inappropriate towards the bookkeeper.

The CEO also happened to have his eyes on her.

It is probably hard to get hired in that field.

Youth unemployment is so high these days

so I guess he feels less embarrassed.

Ms. Han.

That ring…

it looks horrible on you.

I feel bad for that poor finger.

What's her name?

Shin Sae-young

I've never heard that name.

How did she know about me?

If I knew that, would I be calling you?

Are you sure you didn't get drunk

and start babbling about me?

You want to die?

I was going to die of embarrassment.

Are you sure you never touched Sae-young

and just don't remember?

You kidding me? Hey,

I may have made mistakes, but you can't

put that upon me every time something happens.

That's just wrong.

By the way, is she pretty?

You bastard! I am hanging up!

I am going to leave first.

See you tomorrow.

Good bye.

Sae-young! Good luck.

Okay.

And sorry about the mug.

At least I got your heart.

- Who said that? - What?

I never gave you my heart.

About that…

Don't think on your own like that.

Do you know what happens when

I give someone my heart?

It will be really terrible.

You have someone that you like, right?

No. Why? Do I look like I do?

How should I put it?

You look like you're craving something.

I see deep desire.

Something along the lines of affection…

See? You like someone! Right?

No, it isn't that.

Come on! I think I'm right. Who is it?

Sang-bum? Jin-geun? Ji-hyung?

Who is it?

Or maybe… Is it me?

From the surprised look on your face,

I'm guessing it's me.

I knew it.

I'm just so popular.

What about you?

Do you like me?

Are you kidding? Of course I like you!

What is the reason that you like me?

Let's see... You look kind-hearted.

I am not kind at all.

When people are with me, they become unhappy.

Are you sure you can finish this by today?

What, you're ignoring me now?

Hello? Oh, Dad.

I'm still at work.

I'm not working overtime.

But I have this headache of a case to deal with.

Are you having fun with mom on your trip abroad?

If you're sorry, then bring me back a present.

Okay. Let's go together next time.

Wow, time flies. It is already 8.

That's good.

You should have done this from the start.

Good job. Go home now.

What are you doing? Go home.

- What about the finger? - Finger?

Yes, you promised.

You said you'd cut off a finger

if I finished by 8 o'clock.

- Are you kidding me? - No.

What? That was just a joke.

It wasn't a joke to me.

Hey! Wow…

You make me speechless once again.

Are you serious about this?

We'll talk about this tomorrow.

What are you doing?

Ms. Han.

Promises made today should be kept today.

You should at least pretend.

What are you saying?

Oh… In that case,

how about we just cut off just a tiny bit.

Like this much... It should be fine, right?

What kind of crazy psycho are you?

You're crazy.

Crazy?

I am just trying to keep a promise.

Did I do something wrong?

Are you…

Why isn't it coming?

Going down.

What's wrong?

Thank you for this.

You didn't have to…

How is it?

- It's pretty. - Right?

- It's pretty. - Right?

My lips are like a national treasure.

Hey. What are you doing?

You said you liked me too.

Did you seriously believe that?

You said that you did last time.

I wasn't being serious.

You weren't?

Can you not tell the difference

between the truth and a joke?

Sorry, but I feel very uncomfortable about this.

Sorry about yesterday.

But I did buy this to give to you.

What is that? A present?

Wow, So-jin, you're so popular.

I don't need that.

Jin-woo already bought one for me.

Sae-young, she is mine

so don't get too close to her.

I'm going to get jealous.

Hey. You don't have to be jealous!

I didn't stick my tongue in. Don't worry.

Shin Sae-young!

What is it that she said?

Tongue? Your tongue did what?

She's damn crazy!

She's such a tool.

She takes psycho to another level.

Don't laugh. I'm dead serious.

Put your legs down.

Don't treat my car like your own.

Jeez, you embarrass me.

I'm good looking so just let it slide.

Where in the world you will ever meet

another good looking boyfriend like me?

Is it that hard for you to worry about me?

You worry too much.

Look at me, I'm worry-free!

So what if I got kicked out because of a girl.

I don't worry.

Why should I? I have you.

Okay. What do you want me to do?

Shall I do a background search on her?

You stup…

Are you working at an inquiry agency or something?

Inquiry agency…

Sometimes you make me feel down, you know?

I was in charge of

the current event accusation program.

Running a background check on someone

is a piece of cake!

Is that right? Someone that great must have forgotten

to run a background check on the bookkeeper.

I was busy back then…

With the holidays and whatnot…

We were doing great back then too.

Yeah? So busy, but great.

Anyway, can you really do a background check on her?

Then try to get some information

I can use against her.

If I get anything,

I am going to make her life miserable with it.

Okay! I'll get right on it!

What's wrong?

I told you, I don't need this.

I thought you were just saying it.

What?

You don't know what it's like to be lonely.

Of course, you were always the center of attention.

Do you have a problem with that?

If Jin-woo disappeared,

would you be even remotely unhappy?

What?

A long time ago,

my dad bought a puppy

to give to my sick older sister.

I was jealous, so I hated that puppy from the very beginning.

So every night,

I prayed that puppy would die.

But one month later,

it really did die.

That is when I realized.

Evil thoughts have enough power to end life all together.

Don't tell me that you believe you have special powers

just because a puppy died by coincidence?

Then use your supposed evil powers

on Jin-woo. Do what you want.

Can I really do that?

(Jin-woo)

Shin Sae-young!

What did you do to Jin-woo?

Yes, I am almost home. But why?

Something happened at work earlier so I did some digging.

Sae-young is very strange.

What is?

A friend told me she's possessed by a ghost.

What? A ghost?

She curses people apparently.

If they are around her then unfortunate things start happening.

What are you saying?

You're telling me to believe that?

Whatever, I am hanging up.

(LEE-SUN)

What am I doing?

Ms. Han, please open the door.

What are you doing?

Please open the door.

I told you we will talk tomorrow. Go away!

Damn it. Boyfriends are no help at all.

I told you to go away

before I call the police!

Excuse me. I have a delivery for Han Lee-sun?

Deliveries come this late?

Deliveries have been backed up today.

Please open the door.

I'm sorry, but just leave the package outside.

I need your signature. Please open the door.

Just leave it there!

Yes.

Your signature…

Could you please sign this…

Who's there?

How did you get in?

Is there something I don't know about you?

What?

People who use their birthdays

for passwords are usually narcissists.

I thought you would be one of those.

You don't like me?

No. It's not that….

Then do you like me?

What?

Um… I am trying…

I really envy you.

You are loved by everyone.

I wonder what that feels like.

Do you know what people call me?

They call me the wicked witch.

They're right. I am a witch.

(The awakening of the witch)

Ever since I was born, I've carried misfortune with me.

My sister started getting sick on the day I was born.

She couldn't even leave the house,

and lay in bed all day long.

My parents tried to hide it,

but I could tell both mom and dad hated me.

Negative thoughts show faster than you think.

Sae-young, whatever you heard,

just know that I don't hate you.

But that doesn't mean you like me either.

You're like a needle.

So don't come near me, or I'm going to hurt you.

Sae-young,

should I just die?

I think being dead is better than living like this.

If she dies, who will be the saddest?

(Sae-min)

Die.

Just die.

Exactly a week later, she left this world.

Mom, is there more rice?

Dad expressed his hatred towards me in that way.

That is when I knew.

I could never make anyone happy.

And I would never be loved.

Because I was born a witch.

You don't have the courtesy of death. You're disqualified.

No witch in this world can be loved.

Worse yet, I even hated myself.

Every time I felt this way, I abused my body.

Sae-young!

The greater the pain, the more I grew to love myself.

And... then I figured out…

how I could be loved.

With that, my devilish eyes finally opened.

I know the way people look at me.

I know there is a weird rumor about me.

But, no one knows the truth…

nor does it matter.

Life itself is a process of deterioration

and everyone lives a life of lies.

But I'm a happy person.

At least I know how to be loved.

No!

Please have some.

Oh... Thank you.

Is your hand okay?

Yes, I am fine.

Are you sure?

- It must hurt. - I am fine.

The phone you are trying to reach is off…

Why has his phone been turned off since yesterday?

Is your boyfriend stressing you out?

What…

But I am shocked.

About what?

I didn't know you would really cut her finger off.

- I'm astonished. - No, it's not like that….

I know she screwed up her work,

but you went overboard this time.

How much must it have hurt? Poor Sae-young.

What the hell, you shouldn't pity her, but me!

Tramp…

Shin Sae-young.

Yes?

Never mind, go back to work.

The phone you are trying to reach is off…

- Hwa-young? - Yes?

You said you knew someone

who went to school with Sae-young?

Yes.

Can I have that person's contact information?

(Lee Style Dental Clinic)

Hello, how may I help you?

Is Kim Min-ju here?

Oh, Min-ju?

I went to middle school with Sae-young.

To be honest,

I don't feel comfortable talking about her.

Why?

You know she's possessed by a ghost, right?

Yes, but how did that rumor start?

Bad things happened to people

who bullied or harassed her.

They would injure their legs,

or get into car accidents.

Anyways, hanging around her meant bad news.

I see.

Then you probably haven't met her since you graduated school.

Um... I met her a couple of months back.

You're Min-ju, right?

Sae-young?

Long time no see. So you work here, I see.

Yes.

Good to see you. I wanted to see you again someday.

Me… Me?

Yes. I wondered how you were doing.

You talked about me a lot apparently.

No, that's not true.

Don't be scared. I was just kidding.

Min-ju, please prepare the anesthesia.

Just do it without it.

- It's going to hurt… - That's alright.

She's completely psychotic.

The weird thing was…

why would she come to our clinic?

What do you mean?

Her house is far from here.

It isn't even close to her workplace, either.

Then her reason for coming here…

I'm sure she came to see me…

To tell me to shut up about her.

You said you're her boss, right?

Yes.

What I can tell you is…

don't trust her.

She's wicked.

Plus, she never tells the truth.

That's what makes her scary.

(Resume/Shin Sae-young)

Hey, do you think the school is a PC Room?

Pay up. What are you doing? Seriously.

- Excuse me. - Yes, how can I help you?

I called earlier. My name is Han Lee-sun.

Oh, yes… Please take a seat over here.

Hey, we have a visitor.

Bring her some tea or something.

We don't have that in the classroom.

Go and get some coffee, then.

The coffee machine is broken.

Then would you like some of mine?

I didn't put my lips on this side….

Oh, I'm okay.

What I wanted to talk to you…

Shin Sae-young?

I remembered her after I took your call.

Oh, really?

Well… It was right after I finished

my military service and went back to school I think…

Your overall health line is fine,

but you might have intestines troubles.

Yes, exactly! I get enteritis all the time.

Let's not get into detail. Just take some helicobacter pylori.

Then let's take a look at your love line.

After you broke up with your boyfriend

you never had another love interest.

However, two months from today a man will appear in your life.

Oh… He is a user of knives.

Knives? Like a butcher?

We aren't in ancient times. Butcher? Come on.

Oh wait,

it's not a knife.

It's a scalpel.

A scalpel? So he is a doctor

or in training to be one?

Yay! A doctor! Wow!

- That's awesome. - Wow.

You're amazing.

How do you know all these things?

Reserve officers can spot

things others can't.

You know the Ministry of National Defense

has special training camps for super humans,

like in X-men.

Only in the movies.

Then you were part of that?

Well, something similar to that.

I mastered reading tarot cards,

fortune-telling and minored in philosophy.

Fortune-telling and minored in philosophy.

So when I was waiting to join the army, they tried to recruit me.

I heard you were a public service worker.

Didn't you work at the registration office,

copying papers all day and running errands?

Hey, since it's a military secret,

I wasn't going to say it…

but do you know what kind of place

the registration office is?

Think before you speak please.

They would intertwine the special task force

in the military with other common people…

Do you think that makes sense?

The registration office is a camouflage to cover up a secret co-opt…

There you go, now you're talking.

Take a look at me, would you?

When am I going to get a boyfriend?

When am I going to get married?

I'm afraid you won't date for a while.

Same goes for marriage.

How do you know?

I don't need to read palms.

Just looking at your face will do.

You see it too?

Can you take a look at me?

She was a dead person?

Yes, I'm sure of it.

That wasn't the palm of an alive person.

I have never seen something like that before.

If she has the palm of a dead person,

isnt that basically a ghost?

Well, I looked into

who went to school together with her.

And there was one graduate school student.

- Oh really? - Yes.

There she comes.

Sae-young is not a witch.

Why does everyone start off like that?

Only because it makes us feel comfortable.

For comfort?

If a freakish and scary person was

your friend, would you be happy?

She is not wicked but someone we need to pity.

She wants to be loved so much it's driven her insane.

If someone other than her is loved, then she feels obligated

to destroy that in order to receive love.

She is twisted in that sense.

I heard your boyfriend was in

an accident a long time ago.

Jin-woo died not even a month

after he became brain dead.

Everyone believed that this was due to Sae-young's curse.

But that isn't true.

He didn't die from her curse.

She killed him.

Jeez, you surprised me.

What are you doing here?

What do you think I'm doing here?

What?

You shouldn't talk to your superiors like that.

I don't have to respect someone who will die soon.

What? What did you say? Are you crazy?

No. I'm going to push you.

You must be in a lot of pain.

Look at you crying.

I smell human flesh.

You, hiding there. I know who you are.

I am going to stalk you forever.

I can't believe it.

Did you report it to the police?

No. Anyone can say that it was an accident.

Even if it wasn't an accident,

no one could have let the police know.

Sae-young herself is a nightmare.

Wickedness… is a scary thing.

It spreads through your body like a disease.

Sae-young is like that.

She's wicked.

Plus, she never tells the truth.

So she's scary.

She is not wicked but someone we need to pity.

She wants to be loved so much it's driven her insane.

Hello?

Ms. Han. Are you coming in late today?

Yes. I have some meetings and

I will go home straight after.

What did she say?

I don't know. She's going to get off work early.

At least she has a conscience.

I guess she feels sorry for Sae-young.

Hello? This is the locksmith's, right?

Ah!

I am sorry, but may I go home early today?

The hospital wanted me to come back in the afternoon.

Ah, I see. Sure, go on.

Thank you.

Excuse me… I work with Sae-young,

Are you okay?

I thought you had passed away.

If that's what she told you,

then I am not surprised.

What happened?

Sae-young hated me a lot.

Since I am such a weakling and

couldn't leave the house,

people naturally paid more attention to me.

Sae-young couldn't stand to see

someone other than her being loved.

Even her blood-related siblings.

(The truth about the witch)

Her obsession of being loved seemed instinctual.

Mom passed away straight after she gave birth to Sae-young.

So dad took care of me by himself.

What are you doing?

Dad, do you hate me that much?

What?

What are you talking about?

I know you hate me.

Don't talk like that and go to your room.

You think mom died because of me.

You think I should have died instead of her. No?

Damn, I'm pissed.

Is this you, Sae-young?

Yeah.

Why aren't you sleeping?

- Sae-min… - What?

Do you love me?

Why are you saying this all of a sudden?

What have you done?

Sae-young…

No one loves me.

No one…

Then everything she said last night is a lie?

Sae-min! I'm home.

Do you want me to run a background check on her?

What did you do?

Satan!

Go away!

What is this, Ms. Han?

Kind of cute.

Shin Sae-young.

Why did you choose to apply here?

I feel like I could be loved here.

Really?

You seem nice,

and this place has a warm atmosphere.

So I want to be a part of that.

That's a unique answer.

But it's not always going to be like that if you work here.

Maybe, maybe not. It's okay though.

I know how to be loved.

May I ask how?

You just…

have to hurt a bit.

This is going to hurt a little.

Sae-young, what are you doing?

Ms. Han. What were you doing here?

You have a bible and a cross.

Are you going to go and preach?

Are you a Jehovah's witness?

You have never been hated

by others or been sad, right?

Born into a wealthy family,

you have everything going for you.

A good looking boyfriend,

even your staff respects you.

And you still value your body. Yeah?

But you didn't want me to be at the center of attention.

You wanted to find dirt on me that bad?

Ms. Han… You're so mean.

I'm so sorry. It's all my fault.

I will give you one last present.

Sae-young. Spare me… please

Please don't kill me.

Calm down…

It's okay. Don't cry, shh.

Quiet now…

It's okay. Alright.

Don't cry.

Don't cry.

You have a pretty belly button.

Your boyfriend must have caressed it many times.

My sister and I were born on the same day.

It took an hour before

It took an hour before

for me to come out after her.

For me to come out after her.

Due to my stubbornness, my mother had a hard time.

In the end, we ended up trading lives.

In the end, we ended up trading lives.

My dad wanted to save my mother

and sacrifice me.

My life began with hatred and loathing.

Quiet.

It's funny, isn't it?

A witch will never be loved anywhere in the world.

Wickedness cannot be hidden, even if you try.

You psychos!

Don't hate us too much.

We were hated just by existing.

Even by our dad, mom and friends.

All of them abandoned us.

So we chose the only path possible. In our own way…

Die.

All whom are loved, die.

I think you are going to be very nice.

Me?

Yes, I have a good feeling about you.

- I'm not that nice. - Really?

I'm very wicked.

Oh, sincerity. I like you even more.

I hope we get along well.

(The Wicked)
