All locations, characters, organizations, and incidents

depicted in this drama are entirely fictitious.

Filming was in compliance with COVID-19 guidelines

and child actors were filmed in a safe environment.

What's wrong? Are you okay?

What's going on?

Why did you do that?

You...

killed people.

All those people.

What are you talking about?

I remembered something.

And it was so vivid.

You killed people.

And you stood among the dead bodies.

You smiled at me

from among the dead bodies.

And you looked so cruel, smiling like that.

You terrified me

and made me angry.

So I tried to stab you with a sword.

And you stopped me with your right hand.

No. It's different.

What's different?

It's different from the dreams I had when I was young.

In my dreams, you were the one standing among the dead bodies.

EPISODE 13

Hwal. Sang-woon.

What are you doing here?

We felt trapped over there.

It was irritating too. So we came here.

Hwal said you weren't well.

Is that a wound?

It's nothing. I'm fine.

I will take everything you have the next time we meet.

Even your son, your father, and your wife.

I will kill everyone you cherish.

Everyone, get in the car. You can't be here.

Why not? Can't we stay here with you guys?

We'll just stay here.

I'm more comfortable staying together.

I said no!

Why did you come back here?

Come on. Why are you yelling at us?

Don't yell at them. I'm the one who suggested it.

We're worried about you two staying here.

Who told you to worry?

How could I not? You barely stay in touch.

For all I know, Ok Eul-tae could have killed you.

I don't need you to worry about me.

Do you know what you've done?

You put my family in danger.

Your family?

Then am I not your family?

Everyone, get inside.

Where are you going all of a sudden, Ms. Lee?

We just got here. You can't leave.

I'm leaving.

I'll never come back to this shabby haunted house.

Why was I so nice to a man who's never done anything for me?

If you go now, you'll be in danger.

Ok Eul-tae might come after you.

- Right. - Why would he come after me?

He only goes after people Hwal cares about.

Why would he come after me? I'm not Hwal's family. I'm nothing.

You just take care of Shi-ho and Do-yun.

Say something.

- Ms. Lee! - Ms. Lee! Don't leave.

What are you doing? Let go.

If you leave, who's going to cook?

- Am I a housekeeper? - He means you're important to us.

You're as important to us as food is to survival.

If you leave, we'll starve to death.

Let go of me. Get off me!

- Let go. - That hurts.

- Sang-woon. Help us make her stay. - Hey. Stop that.

- That hurts, Ms. Lee. - Give it back, you brat.

- Sang-woon, what are you thinking? - You brat!

- You're not leaving. - You punk.

Nothing.

Are you still mad?

You didn't have to blow up like that.

They were safe in this house before.

Things have changed.

Ok Eul-tae didn't come after them before

because he wanted something from me.

But not anymore.

He said he'd kill everyone.

What? What do we do then?

Should we head back now?

No.

He probably has people watching us by now.

Leaving this house is riskier.

I won't let anyone go outside.

They'll be in danger if we're separated.

- What else? - I must catch and kill Ok Eul-tae

before he does anything.

But now that you're all here, I can't go anywhere.

Then...

I'll look for Ok Eul-tae.

No, you shouldn't. It's too dangerous.

Who do you think I am? Must I repeat myself?

I used to be a cop and I work for a detective agency.

I can find him without getting caught.

You don't trust me?

- That's not why. - Then it's settled.

Once I find him, come right away.

How much longer must they hide in this house?

Do you want to keep Shi-ho and Do-yun locked up in here forever?

Hey, kitty.

Hey, kitty.

Where are you, kitty?

It's not here.

The cat.

It saw me and ran away just now.

You didn't hurt it, did you?

What brings you here? I didn't hear your car.

I walked here.

Why?

My chest...

It feels like my entire body is going to burst from rage

because he rejected me to the end.

So I came here because I might kill anyone I see right now.

What are you talking about?

For a thousand years,

I did everything I could to fill this dark hole.

But he ruined everything.

He rejected me because of that woman.

Now, I will destroy him completely.

And he will also lose everything.

To do that, I need you to do something for me, Min-su.

What is it?

Do you still kill people and bury them in the ground?

The trees here looked nice.

Trees planted over dead bodies yield beautiful flowers.

I don't kill people anymore. I lost interest.

Once you see this, you'll change your mind.

No matter how many people you killed, you still felt empty inside. Right?

I'll let you have her.

In return, you need to help me.

What are you going to do?

I'm going to...

drag someone down to hell.

When you find Ok Eul-tae, don't approach him. Call me first.

I called Mr. Gu and other agencies too.

- Don't go around alone. - Gosh, I said I got it. I'm not a kid.

You sound like a dad sending his son to the army.

Ok Eul-tae is dangerous. How could I not worry?

Goodness. Fine.

I'd like to live until I'm 80. Okay?

I'm off.

- Where is he going? - To find Ok Eul-tae.

What? All by himself?

That's too dangerous.

We have no choice.

While I stay here protecting you guys, someone has to look for Ok Eul-tae

before he does anything.

And if Detective Kwon finds him?

Did you think about how you can put him in the well?

No. I don't think that will work now.

Once he's located,

going there to finish him is easier.

How is that easier?

I told you to stop saying that you'll die with Ok Eul-tae.

Let's try to find a way. We still have some time.

What is it?

You were about to kill me with scissors before.

Yet it's as if you still don't want me to die.

Oh, that.

That just happened.

Let's talk.

Hey.

I'm sorry about earlier.

Did it hurt a lot?

Don't worry about it.

I want to talk about what you remembered from a past life.

Was that all you remembered? Me killing people?

Yes. But you said your dreams were different.

I don't know what's true or if it really was from my past life.

I think it really was a memory from your past life.

Because of this scar.

I was born with this scar because I was cursed by Bulgasal.

Both of us don't remember it. But I think something must have happened

between us even before 600 years ago.

The scar on your shoulder.

Kim Hwa-yeon and your sister, Min Sang-yeon,

all had the same scar since birth.

People born with the scar remembered their past lives.

Except you who didn't have the scar.

- Then... - I don't think it's a coincidence.

You'll get your memories back soon.

That means we'll be able to find out

about the beginning of our story that you wanted to know.

And about the ill-fated relationship between Ok Eul-tae and me.

Right.

And you will hate me.

What do you mean?

Kim Hwa-yeon tried to kill me too. Not only Ok Eul-tae.

I wouldn't. There's no way.

What were you doing? Were you looking at your wound?

- Let me see it too. - No. I said it's nothing.

Gosh. That's what you always say.

I thought you would be okay with Hwal.

Look at you.

It would've been worse if Hwal wasn't there.

Right.

If it weren't for Hwal,

Ok Eul-tae would have killed you already.

After looking at your past life,

I was a bit scared of Hwal.

But he's the only one we can rely on.

So I feel bad that I thought he was scary.

Right. I got scared by an uncertain memory.

Memory?

Oh, that. Just like Sang-yeon, I remembered a bit about my past life.

What's wrong?

It's...

It's just my gut feeling.

I think it'd be better...

if you don't try to get your memories back.

- Why not? - I told you that I met Ms. Lee

when she was young in your past life.

She told me that I shouldn't look at your past life.

I think something scary must have happened in your past life.

So even if you do remember the past, don't tell just anyone about it.

Goodness. Don't worry. I'm sure this is nothing.

Come on.

Won't you just listen to what I say?

Okay. Go to sleep now. I have to go out.

Hwal is guarding the house alone.

You two have your hands full because of us.

Maybe we shouldn't have come like Hwal said.

Don't say that.

I'm happy you're here.

The house is crowded with people again.

It feels like home. I like it.

Go to sleep now.

Why are you so startled?

No, I'm not.

When did you come up? I thought you were outside.

I had to get something.

Why are you out here? It's late.

To stay with you. I'm sure you'll need help.

Don't bother.

No.

Come with me.

I can do it myself.

You don't even know how.

By the way,

you told me that I had this scar on my shoulder in my past lives

because you stabbed me, right?

Why did you stab me?

Because I thought you killed my family.

Why? Are you upset now?

No. It's not that.

You didn't even look into it thoroughly.

You stabbed me and took my soul too.

I think we're even.

I see. Is that so?

Anyway, you stabbed me in my past.

And now you're treating me?

I guess so.

You just had the wrong idea about me.

But why did I take your soul?

Once your memories come back, we'll find out why.

Is getting my memories back a good thing?

We tried to kill each other 600 years ago

and long before that too.

I'm not sure either.

More importantly, are you sure it doesn't hurt?

Do you want some painkillers?

I'm fine. The pain is bear—

I said it was bearable. I didn't say it didn't hurt.

- Stop whining. - I'm not.

You stitched me up without anesthesia. I'll do it from here.

You're infatuated with those children.

You think of them as your own.

I'm afraid that you might leave me.

What's wrong?

Stay seated. You'll collapse again.

I don't feel good.

I despise you.

I truly...

despise you.

Are you all right? Did you get another flashback?

No. It's nothing.

You've been outside all day.

Get some rest. I can keep watch.

You know you're a really bad liar.

I know you saw something.

It's not that important.

It was the same one I saw yesterday but it was more clear. That's all.

Fine. But you don't have to come out.

It's dangerous at night. Go get some sleep.

Wait.

I have a question.

You told me before

that what Ok Eul-tae said shook you to the core.

What did he say?

Why are you asking me now?

I just want to know.

I want to know why you were so anxious

and what made you question yourself that much.

You asked me to turn you into Bulgasal a thousand years ago.

It was nothing much.

But didn't you tell me not to think about what Ok Eul-tae said?

Well...

So why are you suddenly—

DETECTIVE KWON HO-YEOL

I looked into the mansion and buildings under Ok Eul-tae's name,

but there were no traces of him.

What did Mr. Gu say?

He's on a stakeout at Ok Eul-tae's house, but he hasn't come back home yet.

Where the heck is he?

Or...

what if he's already hiding near your house?

I doubt that. He knows what I'm thinking.

He knows he'll die if we meet.

So he'll try to stay under the radar.

And he'll just wait until I leave this house.

Okay. I'll keep looking. I'll call you again.

41 SAN, SANGYONG CITY, GYEONGGI-DO

Goodness.

NO VEHICLES ALLOWED ENTRY PRIVATE PROPERTY, NO TRESPASSING

Gosh. You startled me.

You're on private property. You can't come in.

I just had a few questions.

But it's a little too early, right?

Do you work here?

Yes.

This land belongs to Mr. Ok Eul-tae.

Do you know him?

I do.

Did Mr. Ok Eul-tae come here recently?

No one comes here because it's so far.

It's always only me.

I see. Is that so?

POLICE STATION

What?

Are you serious? You're calling in the morning to ask me for a favor?

I was called in early this morning. I'm exhausted.

Gosh, Captain Ham.

I knew you were competent but you're diligent too? Goodness.

Enough with the chitchat. I'm busy. Just cut to the chase.

There's a farm at Mount Dongbu.

Can you do a background check on a man who works at the farm?

You want his personal information?

You know that's illegal.

Something is off about this guy.

I've seen eyes like his when I was on the job.

And his face—

Goodness. Do you think you're a face reader now?

And he looks familiar too.

Don't reverse park here. You'll damage the trees.

Hey. Can't you help me out here?

No. I can't.

I'll get in trouble for this.

I'm busy.

Goodness. He must think I'm still his junior.

- Hey. - You're here.

I didn't even wash up. What is it?

Why are you bringing me in on your case? What's this about?

Come with me.

TRUSTWORTHY POLICE, SAFE NATION

This came from the Chairman, so there can't be any mistakes. Okay?

Yes, sir.

Good day.

Are you okay, Sang-woon? What's on your mind?

Oh, it's nothing.

You didn't even get any sleep.

Go get some sleep. I got this.

I'm fine. I just had something on my mind.

You're acting weird.

Did something happen between you and Hwal?

You guys always stuck together. But you won't even go near each other.

Did you two fight?

Don't tell me

he rejected your feelings for him?

What?

It's nothing like that.

What is it?

You've been out for too long. It's bothering me.

I have to go inside and cook.

Do you have something to say?

No.

Then why do you keep glancing at me?

I didn't glance at you.

You've never done laundry, right?

You have to do this. Or it will have wrinkles.

Hey. I gave it some thought.

It's not too late.

What do you mean?

To take your soul from me.

We already decided not to do that.

Or is it because you don't trust me?

Can't you not ask any questions,

and just do things the way I want?

Let's go back to how it was before.

That means

you don't feel safe that I'm Bulgasal, right?

You saw me kill people in your past life.

So I might do the same thing...

as Bulgasal.

But ever since I became Bulgasal,

I've never killed innocent people.

I only killed murderers.

I tried my best not to forget...

that I was human

and that I still am.

Despite that, if you still don't feel safe that I'm Bulgasal, give me some time

because once I find Ok Eul-tae,

I'll be gone and you won't have to worry anymore.

Hwal!

Hurry.

What? What is it?

Well, Ms. Lee won't come out of her room.

We cooked for her, but she has no appetite

- and won't get up. - What?

Is that why you called me in such a hurry?

I thought there was a serious problem.

Come on. This is all your fault.

You know what? Go to Ms. Lee, apologize, and make her feel better.

Goodness.

You can't even cook. What do you mean you...

Let's eat.

Gosh. We haven't been here in a while. Look at us fighting already.

Hwal. Please!

- Just make up with her already. - She's often like this.

She'll get over it.

Wait. I see a car coming here.

It's the police. What are they doing here?

Stay away from the window.

Hwal, you go upstairs.

- What are you going to do? - Isn't it obvious?

I'll send them back as always.

That's what I do.

You two, come with me. The rest of you, check for exits!

What are we doing here? You're not going to tell me?

Just watch for now. I'll fill you in later.

You're going to break the door. What do you want?

I'm from the police.

We received a report that a murder suspect was here.

Murder?

Yes. The swimming pool case in Hwanam,

the missing building owner in Yeongsu-dong,

and the Mount Padu case.

These composite sketches are based on witness statements.

WANTED MURDER, ACCESSORY TO MURDER

They're here, right?

Gosh, I don't recognize them.

You came to the wrong place. I live here alone.

Well, we'll see about that. Here's the search warrant.

What are you doing? I live alone!

Police. Open up!

You should go now.

I don't know what's happening right now,

but you can't get caught.

They might find out you're not human.

- What about you? - Don't worry about me. Go now.

Sang-woon, what are you talking about? You should go with Hwal.

Police! Open up!

Oh, my gosh!

What the heck is going on here?

- Gosh. - Go in pairs. Search everywhere!

You didn't even take off your shoes! It's my house! You jerks!

That's my kitchen! Why are you going in there?

What's going on?

- Did they leave? - Yes.

That's the kitchen! Come on!

Hurry up and search the area!

I was told they would be here for sure.

Yeongsu-dong? The Pasu-dong case? What's all that about?

Besides, my team was in charge of the swimming pool case.

The case was closed because he killed himself. But a murder suspect?

The culprit didn't kill himself.

I got a tip he was murdered.

This murderer goes around the country and kills people.

Who gave you the tip?

Do you think Ok Eul-tae told the police?

If people find out that you are Bulgasal,

it won't be good for him either.

He wanted me to leave the house.

So I would be caught by the police and he could do what he said.

He told me he would kill everyone I cherished.

What should we do? The police are involved now.

I'll think about it once the police leave.

They'll leave if they can't find us.

Gosh. I told you it was just us here.

- Do-yun. We have to stay together. - Hey, don't go there.

We couldn't find them.

We'll have to pull out.

What? All of a sudden?

No. I understand.

Hey, let's go.

You two need to come with us.

- Me? - Why?

- You're important witnesses. Take them. - What?

- What? - Take them.

- What is this? - No!

I put up with your ridiculous search.

You're taking innocent kids? Unbelievable!

- Please move. - No, I won't!

Get your hands off them. And leave.

- Hey. - You can't do this.

What are you doing?

You can't force them to come.

Right. Let's follow the law. Should I call my lawyer?

I even know a detective. Should I call my lawyer?

Come on. Arrest them!

Yes, sir. Please move.

- Ma'am! - No!

- Why are you doing this? - Let go of me!

- Come on! - Hey. Be careful!

- Gosh. What are you doing? - No!

Shi-ho.

Shi-ho!

They're not here.

- Why did you come, Ms. Lee? - Exactly.

I should come with you as your guardian.

You'd better not try anything funny at the station. Or I'll destroy you.

Come on. Be quiet.

Are we the culprits?

How dare you tell us to be quiet?

That's enough, Ms. Lee.

We have to get our stories straight at the police station.

We have to tell them we don't know anything about those two.

Nothing at all.

Right. Okay.

But why am I so nervous?

Don't worry.

Let's finish this quickly and have some gukbap afterward.

But this route doesn't lead to anywhere.

Where are we going?

Hey, you can't investigate like this.

There was never an investigation.

They're our targets.

It came from the higher-ups.

After this case, we'll be going places. Okay?

The higher-ups? Who ordered this?

I took care of the case as you requested. They will be here soon.

I hope you know that I had to force

my people to get this done

and quash the murder case before too.

Because you asked me to.

I just hope that you can recognize my efforts.

The general election is next year.

The more influence I have, the more I can be of service to you.

That's all.

What's wrong?

The wound isn't healing.

Hwal. The wound he gave me...

That's odd.

Are you all right?

- What were you saying? - Oh, right.

I was hoping that you could help me with the general election next year.

So I can go to the capital.

No. You have to stay here.

What? Why must I?

I need someone to clean up the mess.

And you're the only one who will get his hands dirty.

I've done nothing but serve you for the last 15 years.

Starting with the twin sisters case, I cleaned up every mess you made.

You want me to stay as your cleaner?

Then I won't sit back anymore!

I'm going to expose you

and your bizarre identity.

I have evidence.

I can just...

The person you are trying to reach is unavailable...

The person you are trying to reach is unavailable...

- Did you reach them? - No, all three of them aren't answering.

- What about Detective Kwon? - He's not answering either.

Hello?

Hello?

Where are you? Are you all right?

What's wrong? What happened?

Remember your junior detective at the station?

- The one I told you to stay away from. - Detective Ham? Why?

Can you find out where he is right now?

You're not getting out?

Why did you get me involved in this? What is it? Why me?

I didn't choose you.

- I was instructed to bring you. - You were instructed?

Captain Ham, let's just do what we were told to.

We followed orders and brought them.

It's nothing serious. It's over now.

Let's go in and say hello. Come on out now.

HO-YEOL

Why do you keep calling me? I'm busy.

Where are you?

I'm working. Let's talk later.

Working?

Do you have any idea

whom you took those people to?

What? How did you know?

Tell me where you are right now. You made a very big mistake.

How could a cop be a henchman to a man he doesn't know?

So you really became a dirty cop?

Hey. Are you listening to me?

Don't reverse park here. You'll damage the trees.

Okay. I'll call you later.

Hey!

Don't reverse park here. You'll damage the trees.

Do you think they're at the farm?

The detective is there, so they must be.

They should be okay, right? He couldn't already have...

No. It's not too late.

I'm sure they're okay. We can save them.

Hello?

Who is this? Shi-ho?

It's me.

Is this our first phone call?

Where are they right now?

Where they are is not what's important.

You should be asking why I took them.

Why did you take them?

You only want to kill me. Why are you getting them involved?

To show you...

Hwal's true colors.

I want to show you...

the true colors of the man who has your trust and who protects you.

I'm not interested in that.

So send my family back right now.

No. You have to know

why you wanted to kill Hwal in your past life.

He's just like me.

I'll go to you. I'm the one you want.

Break my soul, and fill your dark hole.

So don't hurt them. Please.

If you lay even a finger on them,

I'll separate your flesh from your bones.

I'll do it over and over again so you will be in pain forever!

Have we met?

I've seen you from afar with the Mayor and the Police Commissioner.

I brought Detective Ham Un-yeong like you wanted.

Where are they?

You're Ok Eul-tae, right?

Why did you bring us here?

Once Hwal finds out, he won't let you get away with this.

Ms. Lee.

What do you want from us?

Tell us.

Hey.

Be quiet. He'll be here soon.

What? Who?

This is them?

The woman in the photo isn't here.

That girl is Min Sang-woon's sister.

If you kill her...

Min Sang-woon will

come looking for you.

What are you talking about?

There are cops outside!

Hey! Detectives!

Do you know what they're doing?

They're going to kill us!

Take care of them. I'll be outside.

There's someone I would rather not see get killed.

Ms. Lee!

Stop!

Eul-tae!

You promised me.

You promised not to hurt Shi-ho.

You promised when we hung out. Remember?

Eul-tae.

I'll forgive you. I forgot about how you tried to kill me.

And even about what happened to my brother.

He was sick. There was nothing you could do.

I won't hate you.

I'll leave Hwal and Sang-woon too.

Please. I'm begging you.

Please let Shi-ho and Ms. Lee go.

Please? Eul-tae.

Eul-tae.

What was that?

That hurts!

Ms. Lee...

- No! - Ms. Lee.

No!

Let go!

- Ms. Lee! - Ms. Lee!

Ms. Lee, are you all right?

What a mess.

An evil spirit will come...

from the dark hole.

The evil spirit that fed off its father's blood

will rise up from the dark hole.

The evil spirit opened the dark hole.

And now,

it is coming to close it.

The soul will go back to its owner.

The soul will go back to its owner.

Hey. I'm here.

I can't see them from here. When will you get here?

I'm on my way. Don't do anything and just wait for me.

Okay.

I don't want to face Ok Eul-tae on my own anyway.

What...

That punk.

Did he...

Ms. Lee.

You're okay. You're going to be okay, Ms. Lee.

- Ms. Lee. Stay with me! - Ms. Lee.

- Ms. Lee! Please! - You'll be okay.

Ms. Lee...

You're going to live.

You said we were going to have gukbap together.

Please? Oh, no.

Run.

Run away...

before they come back.

How could we possibly leave you behind?

- Shi-ho... - Yes?

Do you think you can lift her?

Can the three of us make it out of here?

Yes.

Just go without me.

The three of you have to live.

You...

Do-yun...

and...

the baby you're carrying.

No...

No, Ms. Lee.

No, Ms. Lee!

Wake up, Ms. Lee!

- Ms. Lee. - Ms. Lee.

Ms. Lee!

That's right.

Living together makes us a family.

Look at him go.

It tastes so good.

Ms. Lee!

Ms. Lee...

Ms. Lee...

Mr. Kwon.

- Mr. Kwon. What do we do? - Mr. Kwon...

Ms. Lee...

Ms. Lee...

Ms. Lee...

BIBI LANDSCAPING

Let's go.

Come on.

We're done here.

Did you see them?

They're the suspects.

Detective Kwon.

Wake up.

Where are the others?

Where...

Where are they?

I couldn't protect them.

I couldn't...

Ms. Lee.

Ho-yeol!

What happened?

Damn it. What happened here?

Hey. You're the suspect, aren't you?

He's the guy we're looking for, right?

What are you going to do now?

Arrest them both.

You're under arrest for murder.

- You have the right to— - Where are they?

What?

The ones you took. Where are they?

What's he talking about?

Damn it. What do you think you're doing?

You...

No, Hwal!

Stop!

Stop!

What are you doing?

Stop it.

You said you don't kill people

even after you became Bulgasal.

I don't care about that now.

I'll kill them all.

Anyone who hurts my family or gets in my way.

I'm going to kill them all.

I want to show you the true colors of the man who protects you.

He's just like me.

Where are the other two?

The man who works here took them.

Snap out of it! Please!

You can't become like Ok Eul-tae.

Look at me.

Are you...

the Dan Hwal that I know?

The one who wanted to remain human?

BULGASAL: IMMORTAL SOULS

Subtitle translation by: Won-hyang Son

I won't hurt him.

Eventually, he'll be on my side.

Hwal will come.

Everything will go back to its rightful place.

Someone died because of you.

You took three innocent people

and handed them over to Ok Eul-tae and a murderer.

I'm over here!

No!

Ok Eul-tae and I are the same.

You should stop coming here too.

Hey, Hwal!

How is Hwal?

Has he shown his true colors yet?

Because I wanted to become Bulgasal,

my family keeps paying the price with their deaths.
