[Don't Forget Me]

[Episode 1]

Professor,

I'm preparing to research

the glass craftsmanship in intangible cultural heritage.

[Intangible Heritage - Ancient Glass]

Starting with the "Never Forget Lamp."

In ancient China,

glass was rare.

The ancients

also called it "the five-colored stone."

It was once valued even more than jade.

Professor,

why does this "Never Forget Lamp"

have three cracks on it?

Regarding this Never Forget Lamp,

its owner

and you

have some connection.

He was also named Qin Siyuan.

[Wish Fulfillment Hall of Never Forget Studio]

[Owner of Never Forget Studio - Qin Siyuan]

To hold on is to lose.

To remember is in vain.

Obsession fades,

and fire renews.

It is said that everyone who enters Never Forget Studio

will fulfill the desire in their heart.

So it seems.

Thank you, Miss.

Your wish is fulfilled.

No need to linger.

Thank you, Miss.

This is already the 999th lamp.

When will the person

I'm waiting for finally come?

[Haidu Military Governor - Shen Zheng]

My uncle was attacked by an unknown assailant

and died from his injuries.

[Lieutenant - Lin Ze]

I must return to Haidu,

find the killer,

and avenge my father.

Stay silent.

What if I don't?

Courting death?

That's right.

Go ahead.

You…

Shen Zheng,

you can't escape today.

If you don't want to die, come out obediently.

Shen Zheng?

Your name is pretty ordinary.

Who would've thought

that the esteemed Haidu Governor

would now be hiding behind a woman?

Pathetic.

Exactly.

Truly spineless.

Just now you said you wanted to kill me,

and now you're trying to save me.

So contradictory.

Interesting.

Soon, you'll meet your father in the underworld.

Who do you think you are

to even mention my father?

Kill him!

What's happening?

What's going on?

Did a ghost do this?

No.

You've encountered me.

Who are you?

What do you want?

Me?

By seniority,

calling me your ancestor wouldn't be enough.

As for what I want…

Do you want to back off,

or

die?

I'll back off right now.

Now,

shall I settle the score with you?

You're the first

to dare point a gun at me.

Who exactly are you?

It's been a thousand years.

And every time someone asks me this question.

A thousand years?

I don't know

what trick you just used,

but stop pretending to be supernatural in front of me.

Others said the same thing.

But it doesn't matter.

Each time,

I patiently explain.

My name is Qin Siyuan,

and I am the owner of Never Forget Studio.

In this mortal world,

I only do two kinds of business.

During the day, I run a shop,

welcoming esteemed guests from the living,

and sell lanterns.

At night,

I welcome wandering souls from all directions,

fulfilling the last wishes of the dying,

helping them fulfill their unfinished desires.

Who would believe

such nonsense?

Do you believe me now?

Do you believe me or not?

I believe you.

Who am I?

How long must I be trapped here?

I've had enough.

Just let me die already.

As long as the lantern is lit, you live.

When the lantern goes out, you perish.

How could this lantern be extinguished?

You just want me to be immortal,

living forever in loneliness.

What sin did I commit

to deserve this punishment?

Find the Lamp Quencher,

and everything will end.

Where is he?

I'll go find him right now.

When the lamp goes out, you can be free.

The Never Forget Lamp may change color,

and a red glow may appear in an instant.

Don't move.

You woman.

How can you be so strong?

It's you?

You are the the Lamp Quencher.

Let go of me.

You woman,

have you no shame?

Extinguish it.

Do it.

As long as you put it out,

I'll let you go.

Really?

Why would I lie to you?

I'm not afraid to fight you.

Go on.

It's out.

Finally, it's out.

Can I leave now?

Blow.

Blow.

Blow again.

You just won't let me leave, will you?

If you don't want me to go, just say it.

Where are you?

Why won't the lamp go out?

Show yourself.

Where are you?

Come out!

What is this place?

I have to escape.

Why am I back here again?

Don't run anymore.

I've already found a way to put out the lamp.

You can't escape.

What if I insist on leaving?

No way.

You have to put out the lamp

before you leave.

What if it never goes out?

Then you'll stay here forever.

I'll look after you until the end.

You want to trap me for a lifetime?

Why not?

Unless

you kill me.

Sorry.

I can't die.

If it were that easy,

I'd have died long ago.

Not only did you point a gun at me,

but you even fired at me.

How should we

settle this score?

What exactly do you want?

I want you

to be mine.
