(Episode 4)

Stop what you're doing. This is the police!

You are under arrest

on charges of ill*gal gambling.

- Go!

- Run!

- Stop what you're doing!

- Get them!

- Get down on the ground!

- Block them.

Darn it.

(Car Title Loans)

- Get the money.

- Hurry!

I guess you won a big sum today.

No, not at all.

I lost everything. I just want to

take some cash for a taxi ride.

No need.

You're getting a free ride

to the police station.

Did I just do that?

Stop!

Hey, it hurts

What the heck?

Darn you. Stop!

- Goodness.

- Stay put!

Darn it.

Sir.

Are you all right?

Are you okay?

- Come on.

- Let me go!

- Let go of me!

- Gosh, what's happening?

- Hey!

- Get out of my way.

- Let's go.

- Move aside!

- Let go of me!

- Come on.

Come on. Move it!

Are you okay?

My gosh.

We can breathe now. We lost them.

My gosh, it was crazy!

We were like secret agents!

I do not want to do that again.

Ouch, it hurts.

It stings.

Goodness. Did you really have to

grab the money in that situation?

We almost got caught!

You can say that so easily

because it's not your money.

Look. Do you know

how much money is in this bag?

Earlier, I

Ta-Da!

- My money.

- What?

My money. Where did my money go?

- My money.

- What's with that apple?

My money.

My money!

Darn it.

There was 100 million won in that bag?

- Why did you bring so much money?

- That stings.

I had to show off wads of cash

to make Mr. Bald approach me first.

Gosh, what should we do?

I'll talk to Hee Soo.

What are you going to say?

That a mere patrol officer

went undercover with a civilian

and infiltrated a gambling den

without permission?

Then we shouldn't have run away.

Being investigated for ill*gal gambling

will surely do my reputation

a world of good.

I'm sorry.

As for the money, you'll get it back.

I'll pay you back in instalments.

It could take

up to 240 months?

No, about

About 300 360 months.

No, I'll ask for my public service

pension payments up front.

I'll use that to pay you back.

It's fine.

I was the one who suggested

we go undercover as gamblers,

I won't hold you accountable for the money.

Really?

Then how will you retrieve

your 100 million won?

What can I do? I should take it up

with the one who started all this.

Sorry?

I'll figure it out,

so let's stop talking about the money.

It'll only upset me more.

Wait! Hold on.

You need a bandage.

I should at least do this for you.

You blew 100 million won

Ouch!

My gosh, I almost cut my finger.

Look at this sharp nose.

Your handsome face is

like your lethal weapon.

- What's she saying?

- Oh, my.

Look at your skin.

Your porcelain skin is truly flawless.

How do you take care of your skin?

It's all money!

Spend 100 million won on your skin,

and you'll look like this too. Okay?

Okay.

Which island is this?

Is this a famous vacation spot?

- It's beautiful.

- That's Boruboru Island.

A deserted island in the

middle of the Pacific Ocean.

I'm going to live there when I retire.

A deserted island?

I don't see a single house on the island.

How will you live there?

I'm going to build one.

From the water supply to electricity

and everything else,

I already have everything mapped out.

It'll cost a fortune. Is it even worth it?

The land and construction cost

How much will it cost?

About 30 billion won in total?

What? 30 billion?

Why spend that much money

just to live there?

Just buy the nicest

luxury condo in Gangnam.

You can see the Han River

from your living room

and will have everything you need.

The price will keep going up.

How amazing is that?

I want to live alone. Completely alone.

The seawater there has

a higher concentration

of salt than elsewhere.

And there's a salt mine

right in the middle of the island.

If I lived there, no one would bother me,

whether they were humans or ghosts.

You're really something.

Knowing how much you hate people,

I'm surprised you still

put on magic shows

and joined the civil police unit.

I hope you can root for me

even if you don't get it.

I didn't want to join the unit

but did it anyway

so that I could buy that island

down the road.

So the reason you help people

is to keep your distance from them?

Well, I guess you could say that.

(Black Hit is open. Enter at 23:00.)

It's open.

Can we really locate that jerk

if you keep typing away like that?

Let's see.

Gosh, this is so complicated.

A Reum can do it.

She can hack most government websites.

Can you hurry?

I'm almost done.

I just need to figure this out.

(You got the wrong place!)

What? What is this?

What's with this mole?

This guy is no joke.

By any chance,

can your employees just track him down?

Come on.

This isn't a private detective agency.

That's what shamans do

Hold on.

My, this is nice.

This is how life should be.

Yes, this is it.

Oh, my. How nice.

- Boss!

- Goodness. You scared me.

I told you to call me

Adviser Choi from now on.

Okay, Adviser Choi.

- It's time you did some work.

- What?

You can help me find someone, right?

When you worked with my grandfather,

you helped him find many people.

That's right. It's a piece of cake.

You see,

I just need to know their birth charts

and what they look like.

Then I could be even

more accurate than GPS.

- Yes! Then can you

- However,

that's only if I have a body to

house me as your grandfather did.

I can't do it alone.

Finding someone zaps a lot of energy.

If I waste my energy and powers

like that now,

my soul will perish.

Darn it. You call yourself a spirit,

but you can't do anything.

Look who's talking.

You've only made puny gains

in your virtue power.

I earned 100 million won today!

You don't even know

what you're talking about.

Look at you whining

about some chump change.

In the afterlife, money means nothing.

Over there, virtue is the currency.

- Look, these bubbles!

- My gosh.

- This is all my money!

- Goodness.

Look at you wasting my money!

- Are you out of your mind?

- Darn you!

My goodness. Hey.

What a lunatic.

For drawing gamblers to the website,

you racked up commissions

My, this is a lot of money.

Where is Kim Yong Ju?

I gave you the website address.

I gave you that info,

which means I told you everything I know.

I'm not talking about the website!

Where is Kim Yong Ju?

I told you. I really don't know.

I met him when we agreed to the deal,

but I've never seen him since.

We only talk using a foreign

encrypted messaging app.

And he keeps changing his username.

Do you expect me to believe that,

knowing how much money was involved?

As long as I get the money into my account.

And if I don't, I can just cut him off.

Why should I meet him in person?

You see,

people in this business aren't so humane.

Sir, I just got a call

from the Cyber Division.

Its web security is too complicated.

They can't get through.

I even lost my building.

When that happened,

I just wanted to take my own life.

But I can't leave like this.

It's so unfair, you know?

That bald jerk.

I must take him with me!

Take him where?

A ghost that harms a human

becomes an evil spirit.

You'll never be reincarnated

or enter Nirvana.

Do you want to wander around

aimlessly for eternity?

Okay, I hear you.

Mr. Kim, you're our only hope now.

Please try to remember.

Did your son leave any clues behind?

This way.

Clues, my foot.

I didn't even know

that he hid money underground

in the yard.

Can't you think of another spot

where he could've hidden some money?

Maybe about 100 million won

as an emergency fund.

How would I know?

He always had a knack for hiding money,

even when he was little.

When he was little?

I was addicted to gambling.

Whenever I found money in the house,

I went and gambled.

So this brat hid our emergency fund

under my insoles.

It was right under my feet,

but I had no idea.

I searched the entire house

to find the money.

What's he saying?

When he was young,

he hid the money

under his father's insoles,

so his father wouldn't take it.

My gosh. It really is easy to miss

what's right in front of you.

What's right in front of you

Could he be

Get up. We have to go.

Kim Yong Ju likes to hide things

right under your nose.

It's right in front of you,

so it's actually easy to miss.

And

Why are there so many air vents

at a tiny senior citizen center?

It makes sense if there's

a server room inside.

He'd need air vents to remove the hot air.

He built it,

so it's possible that he designed it

with some kind of secret room.

Check every wall, floor,

and ceiling in the building.

Comb through every nook and cranny

and look for hidden spaces.

Mr. Cha! There's a basement here!

Need a hand?

- One, two

- Three!

- I'll go.

- By yourself? What will you do?

No, not by myself.

Didn't you see the other day?

Showtime.

Oh, I see. With your employees?

Yes.

Okay. Then I'll wait here

and catch him when he runs out.

Yes. Now, we're talking.

Be careful.

Gosh.

This is nuts.

Mr. Kim Yong Ju.

I know you're here.

Don't worry. I'm not here to arrest you.

Look. I'm

I'm not armed.

Who are you?

Well, I am a member of

Kangguk's civil police unit.

It has "police" in its name,

but it's more like a volunteer group.

Like traffic management volunteers

and the Homeland Reserve Forces, you know.

My point is, I have

no interest in arresting you.

Then why are you here?

I'm here to make an offer.

When you catch a criminal in the act,

you don't have to be a prosecutor

or cop to arrest them.

Even civilians have

the legal right to do so.

I want to sell my rights to you.

In other words,

you'll let me go if I pay you?

I knew you'd get it right away.

Fine.

How much do you want?

For just

one hundred million won.

How come it's so quiet?

I wonder if he's okay.

Why am I suddenly getting chills?

So, 100 million?

It's cheaper than I thought.

Is that

all I'm worth?

I blew the same amount of money

while trying to track you down.

And I'm an honest person, you see.

This deal.

It makes sense only if you can catch me.

Of course, I can.

Should I show you?

Guys.

Hey, hurry!

- Let's go!

- Where is he?

- I will k*ll that scumbag!

- Goodness.

- I will k*ll him!

- Calm down!

You're a ghost. k*lling a human

will get you in deep trouble!

What are you doing?

- I must k*ll that scumbag!

- Calm down!

Guys?

Hey, close the door!

Come on!

Darn, you scared me for a second.

- Gosh.

- Are you playing with me now?

No, I'm not.

You lunatic.

Gosh! I said we could talk this out!

No!

Darn it!

Mr. Kim Yong Ju.

You're under arrest for running an

ill*gal gambling site and for fraud.

Stay put.

(Police)

Hey, calm down!

- Get in the car.

- Darn it.

Watch your head.

Was it Cha Cha Woong again?

Yes. Mr. Cha

came here with me to clean

Just to clean?

This late? Just you two?

Well He volunteered as a

member of the civil police unit.

Wrap things up here

and return to the office.

Yes, sir.

(Police)

You could live here for a couple of years.

Totally.

There's everything you'd

need except for cash.

Why? Are you jealous?

This is like your dream.

Living all alone with nobody around.

So? Does this

Does this look nice to you?

Do you think you'd be happy here?

This is how you'll end up if you

chase money and neglect everyone.

I just hope that you don't let go

of the people in your life.

Goodness. I didn't let anyone go.

I caught Kim Yong Ju.

No, you didn't. I caught him.

What did you say?

Nothing.

Well Without your help,

I wouldn't even have guessed

that I'd find him here,

so I caught him thanks to you.

Thank you.

Yes, of course.

You should thank me.

I should at least get a thank-you.

My 100 million won

Come on. Let's go.

What? My gosh.

Nice, more virtue power.

My, looks like he took care of it.

At this rate, I'll enter Nirvana very soon.

I don't have time.

I don't have enough time to

loosen my 2,000-year-old knots.

Let's pick up the pace.

Yes, that's it. Good.

More. A little more.

Oh, yes.

Article 212 of the

Criminal Procedure Act states that

any person may arrest a flagrant offender

without a warrant.

But not all the assaults

and property damage

that occur during an arrest are lawful.

So if you witness

any criminal acts taking place,

please call the police

rather than getting involved in it.

- Yes, sir.

- Yes, sir.

Understood, Mr. Cha?

Yes.

That concludes today's training.

Let's get going.

- Good work.

- Thank you.

Seul Hae!

Eat before you go.

I'll treat you to your favourite spaghetti.

I'd love to.

But I have to go right now.

Treat me some other time.

No matter what, okay?

(Trustworthy Police, Safe Country)

Goodness, Mr. Cha!

The reporters are curious

about the incident.

Right.

The ill*gal online gambler incident

put you on the top

of the search engine

and made you a national hero.

How do you feel about it?

National hero? No way.

I only did my duty as a citizen.

I'm the type who can't

turn a blind eye to any injustice.

Can you tell us specifically

what you did during the arrest?

Mr. Cha here

had a one-on-one negotiation

with the culprit

as a civil police officer of

Kangguk Police Department.

It reminded me

of what a great idea it was for me,

Seo Chang h*,

to pay attention to

and support the civil police

What was the one-on-one negotiation about?

Well

In other words,

you'll let me go if I pay you?

For just

one hundred million won.

One hundred million won.

Nothing serious.

I just stalled him and

She's the one who arrested him.

She arrested him.

Please ask her for the details.

Aren't you the officer

that caught the culprit

of Choi Min h*'s hit-and-run case?

You're Officer Ko Seul Hae, right?

Officer Ko

is an outstanding officer

who I think of dearly.

Yes. Gratefully,

I'm always getting help and

guidance from the chief.

- We can do it!

- We can do it!

Don't tell me that jerk Kim Yong Ju

will bring me up during the investigation?

Mr. Cha.

I missed my chance to say this,

but great work.

It wasn't a big deal.

But don't overwork yourself.

Civil police officers aren't actual police.

Are you telling me not

to step out of the line?

I'm just worried you

might get hurt or sued.

By the way,

how did you get that injury?

This?

During practice.

Magic is a lot more

physical work than it looks.

And you get hurt quite frequently.

I'm a busy man, so excuse me.

Mr. Cha! Wait for me!

Why did you do that? It was embarrassing.

You already put me behind bars,

so what now?

We were next to your father

as he passed away.

And?

How about applying for a

suspension of confinement?

You should see your father off.

That old man won't be

happy to see his son

who took advantage of him.

Even so, he's your father.

Father?

Who do you think made me into who I am?

Obsessed with gambling,

he cast both my mom and me aside.

So I wanted to show him.

Show him what a great life I'm living

with the money I extorted

from people like him.

That was my way of taking revenge.

Can you even call that revenge?

- What?

- Putting aside those gamblers,

what did their family do to you?

That wasn't revenge.

You only vented out your anger

on innocent random people.

Don't run your mouth! You know nothing!

This is the bankbook with donations

your father made to a

gambling addiction treatment facility.

He donated every month

for the last 20 years.

He should've spent that money on me.

He did spend it on you.

He donated under your name.

Take a look.

Worried his runaway son would go astray

and his sin would do harm to his son,

he donated as a way of atoning.

So this bankbook

is an apology letter

your father wrote to you

for 20 years.

(Kim Yong Ju)

After all this time?

He atoned for 20 years

but couldn't apologize to his son

when he visited

because of his poor mental health.

He regretted it until his last breath.

Is it you, Yong Ju?

I guess not.

It's almost time for my son to come home.

I'm sorry.

Goodness.

Yong Ju?

Yong Ju!

Are you leaving like this again?

Shouldn't you have lived longer?

Lived longer and have me hate you?

You

should have

suffered

as much as I waited for you.

Darn it! Why did you have to die already?

I'm sorry for being a bad father.

It's all my fault.

It's going to be tough,

but Yong Ju,

stay healthy.

And don't skip any meals.

Okay?

I wonder if Sun Bok reached above.

I'm jealous you can see ghosts.

It's a hassle when you actually can.

You have to see all sorts of them.

When did you start seeing them?

Since I was little.

Can you see anyone around me?

No, no one.

Take a better look.

Like behind my shoulders

or on top of my head.

Still nothing?

Goodness.

This again?

What is it?

Did you see something? Who? A guy?

No, I didn't. There's nothing.

What is it?

Is there something I should see?

Well, it's just

I thought maybe my dad

would drop by at least once.

Do you mind tagging along

to a charnel house?

The day after tomorrow is

my dad's death anniversary.

Don't ghosts visit their

family on such days?

See here.

Aren't we

in a strict business relationship?

Yes, a business relationship.

So we're only business partners,

nothing less and nothing more.

We will only see each other

as a civilian and a civil servant, yes?

- Yes.

- If a civil servant

asks a civilian for ill*gal

or personal favours under

the guise of public service,

isn't the civil servant breaking the law?

This is how job solicitation

corruption starts.

Right.

That favour was too personal.

I'm sorry. Please forget about it.

Grandma!

You're not in bed yet?

So you were praying.

How was your trip to Seoul?

It wasn't bad.

But persuading Mr. Cha won't be easy.

Persuade what?

Madam Shaman Na Geum Ok,

let's move to Seoul.

Performing one exorcism

in Seoul is way better

than praying all day long

in this countryside.

Come on, let's make some money.

Okay, let's do that.

- Let's move to Seoul.

- What?

Really?

I keep having these bad feelings.

I better stay close to Cha Woong,

look into him now and then,

and take care of the General Spirit.

Hee Soo.

Come sit here.

I'm still on duty.

I'm only here to get changed.

I'm the chief.

Stop talking about work in front of me.

Do you know I'm preparing to take office

in the National Assembly or not?

I do.

That's why you formed

the civil police unit.

Correct.

Then you must also know why you're

in charge of their training.

Before my election,

make yourself known to the residents,

get to know them,

and casually show your face around.

Understood?

I set up a blind date with

Assemblyman Cho Gap Gu's daughter.

Do your best. It's an important event.

- Dad, I

- Stop.

I took in Seul Hae

and have done enough for her.

You don't need to look

and clean up after her.

Stop wasting your time. You only live once.

You must become more successful than I am.

Hee Soo.

Can I come in, Hee Soo?

Sure.

Congratulations on getting

into the police academy!

Here's an acceptance gift.

What is this?

I made it.

In hopes that you don't get hurt

whenever and wherever you are.

Think of it as a lucky charm.

Thanks. I'm sure it'll keep me from danger.

Don't worry.

Even if you are in danger,

I'll protect you.

- You will?

- I'll become a police officer too.

I'm going to stick by your side

and not let anyone harm you.

That lucky charm is my stand-in until then.

He's right. We only live once.

- Here.

- It smells amazing.

So Hee Soo finally asked you out on a date?

Not really. He only asked

to stay behind for food.

But that never happened at work before.

Great. That's great.

What is?

You've ignited his inner fire.

Acting buddy-buddy with Cha Cha Woong

and bringing in results.

It must have motivated him.

Acting buddy-buddy with him? That's absurd.

Either way, a big shot

is joined by the hips with you.

And he's some looker.

Even Hee Soo would start worrying.

"At this rate, Seul Hae

might end up with another guy."

In other words,

you became his love interest.

Great work today.

- Thank you.

- Thank you.

Don't leave me behind.

I'm beat.

- Right?

- Yes.

Ko Seul Hae!

Be honest with me.

What's your relationship

with Cha Cha Woong?

Well, we're

Forget it.

Is it me or him?

Choose.

It's obviously you.

I've only had eyes on you until now.

That's impossible.

Or not?

- Oh, my gosh.

- It hurts.

You're crazy!

Look how happy you are.

- It's possible, right?

- Of course.

You scared me!

I'm jealous you can see ghosts.

Well, it's just, I thought my dad

would drop by at least once.

Why is she there?

Do I have a fever?

Gosh.

Do you mind tagging along

to a charnel house?

The day after tomorrow

is my dad's death anniversary.

I need a rest.

That favour was too personal. I'm sorry.

Please forget about it, Cha Woong.

Why? What did I do?

Why do you keep popping out?

No.

Yes!

Your turn. Hurry up.

There aren't any to take out.

Are you sure you've

never played this before?

A Reum.

Do we have any work the day after tomorrow?

Yes, you've got a commercial sh**t

for the security company.

That's right, I'm an extremely busy man.

It slipped my mind.

I'm too busy to go anywhere.

What can I do about it?

Hey.

So when will the sh**t end?

Probably late.

Right? It'll end late, right?

Right.

Yes.

Joining the civil police unit

was a good idea.

You even got a commercial offer.

The concert booking rate shot up too.

Mr. Cha, don't we get a bonus

from your commercial?

Bonus, my foot.

We barely made up for the

money we lost gambling.

How can you ask that after

what I've gone through?

Adviser Choi, I've got a question.

Be quick. I'm busy.

Those gifted by the seven spirits.

If they have a strong connection,

can they brainwash others?

Can their words constantly get to me?

They're like messengers of the above,

so their words are more

powerful than others.

What about making others see things?

Like I would keep seeing them everywhere.

I'm not sure.

But since the above adore them,

wouldn't they have a different presence?

Right?

I knew it. It's all because of

that gift from the seven spirits.

Why would you ask that?

No reason.

Whatever, then.

Gosh.

Yes!

Yes!

Adviser Choi, go ahead and stack them.

But I was almost there.

- Hey, it's locked.

- It's locked. What now?

Seriously?

- Hey. Move it.

- Have at it.

What the

- Jeez.

- Darn, my eye.

- Seriously?

- That hurt.

And here I thought I had

taken out the trash last night.

Who do you think you are?

And who may you be?

Me? A police officer walking by.

Guys, get him.

You'll only regret it.

Why you

You.

Just so you know,

throwing punches is just an as*ault.

Use a knife and that's

as*ault with a deadly weapon.

It won't be just a slap on the wrist.

Why let him off easily?

Two can play at your game.

Your father

doesn't polish shoes all day

so that you can act out.

What?

He has a liver problem, doesn't he?

Take him to a doctor if you

have time to fool around.

She's a weirdo.

Are you going to let her yap?

What if you choose not to?

What then?

Let's get out of here. Come on!

Just so you know, these aren't weapons.

I need them for my business.

I work at Okhwa House,

a new fortune-teller parlour.

Well, it was cool

I mean, I see.

The building's been vacant for a while

which drew those punks here.

Hold on. Were you injured?

I'm good.

You butting in cost me clients, you know.

I apologize, then.

Mr. Cha!

I'm one to be against a

romance between co-workers.

Especially one with a ghost.

The legendary sword!

It's a rare item that is hard to obtain

even if you come from a family of saints.

A sword that is only

wielded by top-tier players.

And now I have it in my hands!

There is no one in Lunas

that I fear anymore.

If only you forwarded that

enthusiasm into your work.

Salute.

I'll serve you with everything I have

as if I'm not afraid of being reset.

But you've already been

Sure. Do as you may.

She's pretty. I wish you well this time.

She hasn't been dead for long.

See how her skin is glowing.

- I bet she used a filter.

- Darn it.

Mr. Cha, going somewhere?

To burn these clothes.

They are for Director Ma

to wear on his blind date.

I spent quite a lot.

None of these items are cheap.

Mr. Cha, thanks.

Oh, please.

Why do you need to take them outside?

Darn, that's hot!

A warning would've been nice.

Gosh.

- How do I look?

- You look nice.

- Right.

- You look great.

Gosh.

(Cold Brew Coffee Soeun)

You're beautiful.

There's a nice glow to your skin,

and you look healthy.

Right. I've only been dead

for two weeks, you see.

It's a little stuffy in here.

How about we go someplace

where we can be alone?

Somewhere with a bit more privacy.

Just the two of us? A bit more privacy?

Sure. We're both aware of our situation

and talking seems like a waste of time.

We both died as unmarried people.

I'll search for a place.

(Let's Play Here)

(Apple Hotel)

Then, why don't I take you someplace nice?

Someplace nice?

There's a coin karaoke room I often go to.

The facility is clean,

and the speakers are top quality.

Forget it!

Are you kidding me? What a freak.

Wait. Why the sudden change of heart?

That naive idiot.

But I didn't order anything.

You're the landlord, aren't you?

It's the least I can do

as an employee working here.

- Isn't that right, boss?

- Of course. Good thinking.

You've been volunteering

in the civil police unit.

I find it admirable.

As to all that I do.

I asked to see you now that

your contract is expiring.

I'm afraid your current rent

doesn't seem appropriate.

Of course. It has always been

lower than the market price,

so I've been expecting this conversation.

The building is falling apart.

Who knows when the walls will come down?

They're perfectly fine.

Due to the new bus stop out front

The air quality has gotten worse.

And are the stray cats

having kittens every two days?

Them meowing all the time

The noise is more like pollution.

From cats meowing?

This building should

probably be knocked down.

Wait. Knocked down?

Still, I can't give up

on the rent just yet,

so here's what we will do.

You'll pay me half the current rent.

Half?

No words can describe how grateful I am.

It's settled, then.

By the way, is your daughter doing well?

Yes, of course. I only have you to thank.

I hardly think that's true.

- Have a good day, then.

- Sure.

Thank you.

Have a good day.

My gosh.

Here they come.

- Good evening.

- You're here.

It's this house right here.

This has been going on for an hour.

The noise is keeping us up.

Please do something.

- Sure.

- They're driving us crazy!

Is he practicing his magic tricks?

Darn it.

Those steps aren't easy to master.

Who could it be?

Excuse me?

Excuse me, Mr. Cha!

Your neighbours have

called in a noise complaint.

Gosh, my bad. I guess I got carried away.

(Volume)

What the

Oh.

I see it's one of his employees.

Mr. Ma Dong Chul?

Mr. Nam Sang g*n?

Oh, Ms. Kang A Reum.

Come on.

Oh, then is it

the new adviser at the company?

I see. Hello.

Allow me to introduce myself.

I'm Ko Seul Hae.

I'm a police officer at the

Kangguk Police Substation.

Yes, hello.

I see you're one to respect your elders.

Yes, Chief.

I've dealt with the matter.

The homeowner forgot to turn the TV off.

Yes, sir. I'll return to the station.

Adviser Choi, I'll head out, then.

I'd appreciate it if you

kept the volume down.

Woong!

Why are you here again?

I had business in town, so I stopped by.

Grandma and I are opening

a fortune-teller parlour up the street.

Why in this neighbourhood?

Must you ask?

Thread is where the needle is

and rain is where the clouds are.

Please leave and never come back.

Move.

How can I not be back?

We need to settle on a date

as well as book the venue

and salon among other things.

The venue? The salon?

Are you right in the head?

Have you lost it?

Do you have a girlfriend?

Yes, I do.

When will you break up with her?

Just when will you break up with her?

Mr. Cha, are you just getting back?

That's right.

Is she your girlfriend?

It's a pleasure to meet you.

I am Woong's future wife,

Cheon Ye Ji.

What a relief. I'm way better than her.

Sorry?

Woong, didn't you act

like you had high standards?

Your taste in women is quite humble.

Woong, I'll be in touch.

Why would you be?

I hope we never meet again.

What did I just hear?

Mr. Cha, are you getting married?

Whatever.

Why were you inside my house?

Your neighbour called in a noise complaint.

Someone opened the door

when I rang the bell.

That darn adviser!

What

Can't you at least

guard the house properly?

How can you let anyone in?

I'm not your guard dog, you know.

Besides, Officer Ko isn't just anyone.

This is my house that I live alone.

Everyone else but me

is considered an outsider.

Have a party here why don't you?

Wait.

What the

Trespassing and vandalism?

The police can't break the law!

I'm home.

- Me too.

- Welcome home.

Guys, come quick.

Just look at what Ms. Ko did.

She ruined my perfectly good picture.

- Did Officer Ko draw this?

- Yes!

- How did she

- She used our photos as reference.

Is this me?

This jerk must be

This is A Reum and this is Dong Chul.

My gosh.

It's like we're on vacation.

She must've known that

a botched blind date

would keep me here.

You look cute at least.

She made me look so old.

That's only because she

hasn't seen the real you.

You're truly handsome in person.

- She did such a good job!

- Mr. Nam, this is just like you.

This must be Officer Ko.

- Here we go!

- All right.

The fish will keep on coming.

Boy, they sure can pull.

We'll have another full load of fish.

What's this? Take a look.

(Aquafarming)

Here's another one.

(The Haecheong)

(The Haecheong)

Just a little more.

- Sure thing.

- Got it.

Soon Dong!

Gosh.

My goodness.

- I'll go to him.

- Sure.

- Soon Dong, what are you up to?

- Goodness.

Soon Dong, what's wrong?

(Aquafarming)

Soon Dong, no!

No, don't!

No

Soon Dong, what has gotten into you?

My gosh. Why are you doing this?

Get a grip on yourself.

Freeze. You're under arrest.

Are you kidding me?

But I saw everyone leave.

Whenever and wherever,

your home will be protected.

Magic Eye.

Cut.

Are we done?

Your expressions seemed a bit frigid.

How about a big smile for when you wink?

You have what you need,

so let's call it a day.

Let's give it another shot.

Should we eat first? It's dinnertime.

Shall we have dinner first?

- Sure.

- Sure.

No, let's get it over with.

A, E, I, O, U.

A, E, I

Is this big enough for you?

You're getting there.

Yes, I love that big smile.

- This one? Let's do it, then.

- Yes, that.

Get ready!

- I'm calling it a day.

- You did well today.

What? Officer Ko, hold on a second.

There's an article covering

you and Cha Cha Woong.

- Is that so?

- Check this.

My gosh.

That's right. You also caught

the hit-and-run driver together.

The two of you must make good partners.

Maybe it'll lead to being

more than just friends.

That will never happen.

It's not right to put up a wall

like that at your age.

Date whomever you can

and move on from guy to guy.

Then, choose the best one

to settle down with.

Of course.

Your father would be

thrilled if you came by

with a guy at your side.

Have a good one, then.

- Sure.

- And even though this isn't much

I can't accept this.

This is me giving, not you accepting.

- Just get going.

- Thank you, sir.

- Go on.

- I'll get going, then.

- Sure.

- Have a good day.

I'll wish that there is

something between you two.

Hop in.

Aren't you going?

It's the anniversary

of your father's death.

Why did you pick me up?

I thought this was beyond

the scope of your work.

Oh, this? I wrapped up the

filming of my ad campaign

and had some time to k*ll

with nothing better to do.

I thought I could go

for a drive outside the city.

This isn't ill*gal solicitation, then.

I said I had some time to k*ll.

Others take all day filming ads,

but I was done with it in a flash.

People should lack in some ways

in order to seem approachable,

but I'm on a different level

compared to mere mortals.

Are you scoffing?

Of course not.

I'm grateful, that's all.

Someone of such high caliber

is giving me a ride.

You're quite generous in some ways.

Don't get me wrong.

I had some time to k*ll!

Why won't you take my words

for what they are?

Where did Cha Woong go by himself?

He should've given us a drive back.

He even wrapped up filming

as fast as he could.

Wait a second.

Could he have urgent business?

- Keep walking!

- Keep walking!

We're almost there. It's just past here.

Don't get your hopes up though.

You might not get to see your dad.

I'm slightly excited though.

I have something I wish to say to him.

Which is what?

You know it's the finals tomorrow, right?

Of course I know that it's tomorrow.

See? I knew it.

It's today, not tomorrow!

I'm sorry.

I've had too many late nights

to even know which date it is.

- Will you be there?

- Of course.

How can I not when my

one and only daughter

is competing in the finals event

of the national judo competition?

Only a natural disaster

would keep me from going.

If you break your promise again

and don't make it this time

You know I can throw you

on the ground, right?

You being my dad won't

save you from great pain.

Consider me terrified.

(2012 National Judo Competition)

Are you ready for today's event?

(2012 National Judo Competition)

Dad, where are you? Are you almost here?

Hey, Seul Hae.

I feel bad having to tell you this.

I've been called out.

Again?

I thought only a natural disaster

would keep you from coming.

I'm sorry, but

this guy we're after is a monster.

One as bad as a natural disaster.

I need to capture him.

Why must you be the one

to capture all the bad guys?

Can't you send someone else?

You're the only family I have

that can come to my games.

Seul Hae, listen.

I'll take some time off

once this case is over.

We'll go on a trip together.

I'll promise you that.

How are you any different from my dead mom?

You being alive means nothing

if you can't be by my side!

Forget it. I don't need you either,

so don't make promises you can't keep!

(36th Seoul Judo Competition,

3rd place, Ko Seul Hae)

(Dad)

Hee Soo?

Seul Hae, Detective Ko

Your father

Dad?

Dad, please open your eyes.

I'm here. I'm finally here.

- Dad, I'm sorry.

- I'm afraid you must leave.

No, don't. Dad, don't leave me.

Dad, don't go.

- Don't put him in there.

- You can't do this.

Dad!

Let go of me!

I tried to recall the

last words I said to him,

and it turned out to be this.

I said I didn't need him.

It's been eating away at me.

It's like I've swallowed a large needle.

That's how much it hurts.

If you help me meet him today,

I'll tell him this.

That I'm sorry.

That I have always needed him.

And that I still need him.

Peace and quiet are what you prefer,

but here you are in the city.

Is it due to materialistic

greed at old age?

No, sir.

I've been sensing ominous energy

which is why I relocated.

My worshipping spirit tells me

it's an energy of a being

that is neither alive nor dead.

I was worried that it could cause

either Cha Woong or you harm.

Harm, my foot.

Maybe the old hag has dementia.

She couldn't be more way off.

I highly doubt it.

An insurance policy for dementia

is highly needed in our realm.

How can humans stay focused

when the spirits are spewing nonsense?

Is it fear I detect?

What's with the sunglasses?

It's not a crowded place.

Not for the living,

but it sure is for the dead.

Why do you need to hide

who you are from ghosts?

Because things will get bothersome

once they figure out that I can see them.

They'll cling on to me asking

that I listen to them

and resolve their issues.

Gosh.

Here.

There must be a lot of ghosts.

It's the full moon in two days.

The negative energy is stronger

which makes it a field day for them.

Be careful today.

Sometimes, even the less gifted

can see them too.

Really? Will I get to see my dad?

Stop that!

The last thing I want is

to get stuck with freaks.

Freaks?

Gosh.

Over there.

I'm lonely!

If an unmarried male ghost

sees a woman looking at him,

he'll stalk her day and night

without ever moving on.

I want to marry!

Over there. It's a faceless ghost.

Those kinds are the worst.

If you lock eyes with them or converse,

you'll suffer from an illness

that could lead to death.

Is this all true?

Or are you making it up to scare me?

Seriously? Who do you take me for?

Put these on.

Being cheeky will only end in regret.

You detect fear? From who? Me?

What would I fear?

The evil spirit from ten years ago.

I have a feeling that it could be back.

How can he

when his spirit was sealed and drowned?

Just like your worshipping spirit,

all you do is worry.

I know.

I'd like nothing more

than for it to be pointless.

By the way, General Choi,

shouldn't you hurry with the transfer?

Without the body of a chosen pupil,

your spiritual power will be limited.

Oh, that? Don't you worry.

I have actually found a better way.

A buy-1-get-1-free deal.

I've been gaining virtue power

without doing any of the work.

Maybe it's a gift from above

to enjoy my later years

on my way to Nirvana.

Of course.

You have been of great service

during the past centuries.

It sure was a long time.

2,000 years, my goodness.

It's been so long that

I can't even remember clearly

why I became a spirit.

But

there is a chance

that those two are not gifts from up above.

They may be mirrors in disguise

telling me to make up

for my sins before I leave.

Mirrors?

I only thought of seeing ghosts as a gift,

but it comes with its difficulties.

It must've been a hassle.

What?

Faceless ghosts and ghosts of unwed men.

You constantly live in

your own horror movie.

It must've been hard for you.

But then I dragged you here

to ask if I could meet my dad.

I'm sorry.

Wait. How about this?

Call me if it ever gets scary for you.

I'll be there.

We're strictly business partners,

but I guess I can

throw that in as a favour.

Since I can't see ghosts

I say mirrors because they look like

the two people I used to know

in my antemortem life.

(From Now On, Showtime!)

Stay still. Don't move.

- We meet again.

- Your boyfriend's handsome.

Let's go.

Darn it.

Did you and Officer Ko argue?

It's like you aged overnight.

That must be it.

- I couldn't like you more.

- I couldn't like you more.

This is my father.

The Full Moon m*rder*r from ten years ago.

The shaman Cha Sa Geum.

He's your grandfather, is he not?

Mr. Cha isn't like that.

You shouldn't believe people that easily.

Stop taking advantage of Seul Hae

and stay away from her.

Whether I take advantage of her

or stay away from her

is up to me, not you.
