Characters, actions, places, occupations, and events in this series

They are not intended to urge or promote any behavior in the series.

Viewer discretion is advised.

The power of the Golden Blood is too almighty.

We can’t let the Golden Blood fall into Nakan’s hand.

Until you turn 21.

I will be taking care of you all the time.

Starting now.

I heard you said you have the special blood

wanted by the vampires?

Stop!

Mister!

Didn’t you say you are immortal?

Mister!

Your wounds are gone.

You smell so nice.

Are you sure

you want to live here with me?

It's because of the Golden Blood, isn't it?

That's why people got dragged into trouble.

I don't want anyone to get into trouble because of me anymore.

I'll live with you

until I turn 21.

Hello, Kla.

Yeah

I have something to tell you.

I got a scholarship.

Yeah.

The thing is, my advisor gave me a scholarship

in return for me helping out with the research.

I have to move into the school's accommodation
and I have to move in tonight.

I told Miss Nuan already.

She gave me permission.

Yeah, don't worry about me.

Hey, Kla.

I have to go now.

I'll talk to you later.

Alright.

Hold on.

No one else is living here, right?

No, I live here alone.

Wait, wait.

There's nothing strange, right?

What do you mean by ”strange”?

A coffin in the middle of the house

something like that.

Come in and see for yourself.

Is it like what you imagined?

Well, it's not like what I had in mind.

The vampires' tricks worked beyond expectations.

You might have thought we still live in a dark castle

or sleep in a coffin.

Like, in the haunted houses?

Something along that line.

Think about it,

if we still live in such a dark castle,

you guys would have visited it as if it's a landmark.

Humans learn to adapt.

So do we.

But there's a room

that no matter how long the time has passed,

it’s still a necessity.

What room?

The tribute room.

Follow me.

Is there really such a room?

I had someone move all your stuff in already.

Both a vampire and a bellboy?

You're stretching them thin.

Where are you going to sleep?

You're not going to watch me around the clock, are you?

What do you think?

Mister.

The bed is too small for two big men.

I won't take your bed.

This entire room is yours.

Since we're going to live together,

you should know this, Tong.

Vampires don't need sleep.

What do you mean?

It means that I can watch over you around the clock.

Are you sure you're going to just watch over me?

Don't you sneak in and suck my blood while I'm sleeping.

Why would I do that?

If I really want to drink your blood,

I can do that anytime.

You smell so nice.

Okay?

Then leave already.

Where's my guitar?

Hey!

Why are you here again?

To give you your guitar.

Here.

Hey!

From now on,

don't come any closer than this.

One arm's length.

Your arm or my arm?

Our arms are not the same length.

It doesn't matter whose arm it is.

Also, don't enter at your own will from now on.

No sneaking up on me too.

Did you get that?

Hey!

Answer me!

Hey!

[Pull yourself together, Tong.]

[Keep your guard up all the time]

[because that vampire]

[can eat you up anytime.]

[Can't be trusted at all costs!]

Didn't he say he wouldn't come in?

Are you hungry yet?

Don't you only drink tomato juice?

This is all for you.

What?

For me?

All these?

I wanted you to try new thing

so I ordered different sorts of things.

You're not trying to fatten me up and eat me later, are you?

I don't know which place has good food.

So I ordered from ones with good reviews

or got a Michelin Star.

For some,

I even had to jump the queue for you.

I just wanted you to know
that I will take great care of you.

Good morning, Mr. Tong.

Would you like some coffee or tea?

Uh, it's alright.

Or would you like some tomato juice like Mr. Mark?

I'll just have water.

Wow!

Mister!

This is so delicious.

Is it that good?

Aren't you going to eat?

We don't need food.

Mister!

This is b*mb!

So good!

What a shame

that you’re a vampire.

You have money

but no chance to enjoy delicious foods like these.

Have you changed your mind?

Want some?

How was it?

Delicious, right?

Since you're the host of this house and this meal,

I'll give you this dish.

Alright?

Here.

Mister.

Have you got anything for me to do?

I don't want to sit here doing nothing.

When I was at the orphanage,

Miss Nuan told us that we have to have our duty

and be helpful.

Mister.

Is there a mall around here?

I want to buy some stuff.

Just tell me what you want.

I'll get them for you.

It's my clothes.

How can I have someone buy it in my stead?

Do you know my size?

Get up.

Hey, hey!

What are you doing?

One arm's length.



Hey, what are you doing?

I'm measuring out your size.

Stay still.



Give me your arms.





Now I know

that all your measurements

are one size smaller than mine.

How do you know that it applies to 'all' my measurements?

Isn't it obvious?

Tell me if you need anything,

got it?

Yeah.

Are you just going to stand there and watch?

Don't you want to take on anything?

Nah.

I'm bored so I'm just looking around.

Did you find anything interesting?

There is quite something.

I'll try it out.

You've never tried weight training before, have you?

No.

I'll teach you.

If you do it alone,
You might injure yourself

Like this?

This is for your shoulder.

Lift them up and breathe out.

Hey!

Mister!

Aren't you going to save me anymore?

Mister.

Aren't you going to run anymore?

I'm bothering you too much, am I?

I'm sorry.

I…

forgot my slippers.

Next time, put your towel away after using it.

Oh, Mister!

You have to go to work?

I have to go to the medical center.

There's some work I have to take care of.

You can take care of yourself, right?

Yeah.

Actually, Aunty Wan is also not here today.

It's quite dangerous to leave you here alone.

Would you like to come with me?

Really?

Can I really come along?

But you might have to be closer to me than one arm's length.

Is that okay with you?

I'll let you get away with it for a day.

Then,

I'll get changed first.

Tong.

Come and walk beside me.

Let's go.

Mr. Mark, Miss Thara is waiting to see you.

Wait for me at the coffee shop.

Mr. Tong as well.

Miss Thara would like to meet both of you.

Mr. Tong too?

Yes, Miss Thara is already aware that Mr. Tong is here too.

This way, please.

It's nice to finally meet you, Tong.

Hello.

Hello.

Can I have your hands?

My hands?

If I were you,

if there were a staring portrait beside my bed,

I would have covered it up with something too.

You could see it?

Thank you so much, Tong.

It couldn't have been easy all these times, was it?

Both at the orphanage and here.

It wasn't too bad.

Miss Nuan took great care of me.

Hang in there just a little more, Tong.

When the Golden Blood appears.

When the moon hangs low.

That's when peace

shall return.

Has Mark been taking good care of you?

Did he put you in a hard place?

Or if he ever bothers you,
just let me know,

I'll handle Mark for you.

I can do that?

Of course.

Then if Mr. Mark ever bothered me again,

I'll tell you right away.

Thank you so much, Tong.

You might not know how important you are to us.

And I'm sorry

for making you get involved with the vampires like this.

That boy has a kind heart.

I haven't met anyone with such a kind heart like his in a long time.

Yes.

But it's someone with a kind heart like Tong

who is the weakest.

Because a kind heart is prone to shatter.

Even though he has the most powerful blood?

You realize the power of the Golden Blood firsthand

because you have drunk Tong's blood, is that right?

My apologies.

I didn't mean for it to happen.

I've seen it in the vision already.

For how much you tried to hold back.

The reason I've called you in today
is to warn you to be extra cautious.

The Golden Blood holds more power than you can handle.

I'll be more careful.

It's good that you've successfully had Tong close to you.

But too close can be dangerous too.

I don't want you to make any mistakes.

How old is Miss Thara?

No one knows
and no one dared ask.

She looks so beautiful, cool,

and charismatic.

Her hands were soft
and she was kind too.

Without Miss Thara,
there wouldn't be me.

So,

probably like Miss Nuan in my case.

Which game shall we play tonight?

The thing is
tomorrow is Miss Nuan's birthday.

So I wanted to make a video
to wish Miss Nuan a happy birthday.

[DAWN OF LOVE ORPHANAGE]

You seem to love Miss Nuan dearly.

Of course, I do.

She brought me in ever since I was a baby.

She told me

that I was a crybaby.

No matter what
I wouldn't stop crying.

So no one wanted to take me in.

But once Miss Nuan picked me up,

I stopped crying right away.

I can’t recognize my mother

but that's not important.

Since Miss Nuan is my mother.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy birthday to you.

Happy–

I think

you had better sing for Miss Nuan yourself tomorrow.

You're going to take me there?

Really?

Over here!

Tong!

Tong!

Where have you been?

Tong!

Tong!

Tong!

Tong!

Hello!

We've missed you.

Tong!

Hello.

Hello.

Where have you been?

Where's Tonkla?

There he is.

Tong!

Tonkla!

Who did you bring along?

Well…

Who's this?

The friend working on research with me.

What about Miss Nuan?

Is she inside?

She's gone to run some errands in town.

She'll be back in the evening.

Tong.

Would you like to play basketball together?

Tee-lek!

Didn't Miss Nuan say Tong can't play?

He's unwell.

Tee-lek!

Yes.

I'm fine now.

Really?

Super fit!

What about Tonkla?

Tonkla?

He's probably fixing the pipe in the kitchen.

He'll be here soon.

Will your friend play too?

Don't invite him.

Sure!

I'll play too.

Really?

How can I let you play alone?

If you lose to the kids,
it'd be so embarrassing.

We'll see

who will lose to the kids.

Hey!

Here!

Over here!

Hey!

Hey!

Hold on to him!

When I was young

I wanted to play basketball with my friends so badly.

But everyone thought I was sick.

So I couldn't play.

Miss Nuan didn't allow me to play.

She didn't even allow me to run.

She was afraid that I would fall over and bleed.

What about you?

Is there anything you've wanted to do

but have never done it?

How was my medicine?

Are you still nauseous?

Take my medicine

then lay down and get some rest.

Our father, who art in heaven,

hallowed be Thy name.

Please chase away

the spirit of pain.

Are you Doctor Jensen?

The infirmary is closed.

You'd better come back tomorrow morning.

I'm here to see your son.

My son?

Yes.

Mark Jensen.

You've probably come to the wrong place.

My son has been bedridden for many years.

You can't have known him.

What if I say I have a way
to extend his time with you,

would you be interested?

If Miss Thara hadn't come and find me back then,

I would have lived only for a short while after that.

Probably a few months.

No–

perhaps just a few days.

So would you call Miss Thara

your lifesaver?

Actually, our pasts are quite similar.

You were really sick

while for me…

Do you regret it?

No, Miss Nuan was just
worried more about me than the others.

Since she thought I was sick.

But I do

kind of feel it.

Sometimes I feel

that I'm somehow more special than the others.

[I've never known my real parents but]
[Miss Nuan loves and takes care of me no less]
[and even love all the children equally.]
[Maybe she worries more about me because]
[I'm sick so I can't play with my friends outside.]

Tong, Tong.

Tonkla asked me to tell you to follow the plan.

Miss Nuan's coming.

What plan?

How can I tell you?

That wouldn't be a surprise, then.

Let's go.

Help me out.

Help me light the candles.

Miss Nuan is here.

Mister!

Go greet her on my behalf.

I'll be hiding right here.

Go, go, go.

Go out there.

Mister Mark, what brought you here?

I brought Tong to see you.

Well,

if you had called me beforehand
then I would have been here to welcome you.

It's alright.

By the way,

have you talked it out with Tong, Mr. Mark?

Please excuse me.

Mr. Mark!

Is Tong doing alright?

Let's talk about it later.

I…

I'll leave it to you.

Tong is living with you
so now I can be at ease.

All these times,

I've never let Tong stray from my sight

and for the sponsoring money,

we're doing fine here.

By the way, where's Tong right now?

Hello, Miss.

Tong!

You don't have to worry.

Mark is taking good care of me.

Tong.

Why, Miss?!

You knew about this vampire thing all along, right?

Why didn't you tell me?

What did you think of me?

Do you see me as just a kid you were hired to look after?

How much did he pay you?

Tong.

That's not what it is, Tong.

As soon as I can make my own money,

I will pay you back.

Tong!

Tong!

Tong.

Tong!

Tong!

Hey, stop right there.

Tong!

Let's talk.

You are one of them, right?

You knew everything, didn't you?

Knew what?

I only know that I have to take care of you.

Because you're the special one in this house.

I feel terrible.

Raising me to knock the money off someone?

No one thinks of you that way.

Trust me.

You don't have to pretend to love me anymore.

You,

Miss Nuan,

and this damned orphanage!

You should be glad

that you're the special one here.

"The special one"?

Is that why
you've agreed to be my friend?

Why?

Answer me.

Is it because I made you get a scholarship to study in Bangkok?

You b*stard.

If that's all that can come out of that brain of yours

then screw you.

Ask me anything you're curious about.

I'll explain everything.

It's so nice being me.

There are so many people looking out for me.

Everything we do
is for your own safety, Tong.

Is it really for my safety

or for other reasons?

What else is there
that I still don't know about?

It's true that we've donated the money to this orphanage.

But isn't it for the good of everyone?

Miss Nuan also needs the money to take care of you

as well as the other kids.

What if it's not so?

Without the money,

would Miss Nuan have loved

and cared for me like that?

She knew what you guys are.

She knew what would become of me.

There's only me

who has been fooled all along.

Tong.

Tong.

But everything we did was also for your own sake.

Tong.

Mark.

My son.

Let me see your face
one last time.

I'm sorry.

Ever since I've become a non-human,

I have no feelings for anything.

I do not need rest.

I do not need sleep.

I'm not hungry.
I'm never satiated.

I have no feelings for anyone.

I've been living my life that way for hundreds of years.

But why…

Is it because of Tong's blood?

I'm sorry, Tong.

I'm sorry you have to go through this.

I understand how you feel now.

You?

Understanding me?

Loneliness.

The feeling as if you're all alone.

To see other people live their lives.

Though you can see them

or hear them,

you still feel like you're shunned away from the outside world.

I'm sorry.

I want to help you.

You don't have to do anything anymore.

I don't want to know any more things.

I don't want any more misery.

I'll let you go back to your normal life.

Are you sure

about letting me go?

Take good care of it.

This is yours too, right?

I've always thought

that it belongs to the angel

who protects

and looks out for me all this time.

I've never thought

that it'd belong to a vampire like you.

Sorry for disappointing you.

But you

have always been looking out for me, right?

Thanks.

It's yours now.

Keep it.

What is it?

No?

You're still not going to help your "VIP" friend carry his stuff?

I think you shouldn't be mad at Miss Nuan.

At least,

she has been raising us up until now.

For the scholarship,

I think I will decline it.

I feel bad for you.

Dude.

There's no need for that.

It's a lot of money.

I thought it through.

I'll take out a student loan

and work to cover myself.

It's actually a good thing.

I don't want to owe anyone anything.

Kla.

I'm not angry at you or anything.

Don't worry,

I'll take care of all the expenses.

Also, you don't have to work.

Well,

about work,

I can help you out now.

What people were saying about me being unwell was a lie.

I'm actually healthy.

What the truth is all about,

you can tell me later when you're ready.

Thanks, Kla.

You're my only friend.

Actually, no.

You're the only family I have now.

Sure!

Also,

you'd better show me respect.

At least, I'm older than you.

Go on.

Do that now.

No.

You're not that respectable.

You moron.

By the way, Tong.

The research friend or whatever,

where is he now?

Are you not going to do it anymore?

Have we got everyone here?

I'll have you divided into teams for a report.



You can start teaming up now.

Mark?

Hi there.

Would you like to be in my group?

Honestly, if ask me right now,

I can just give in.

No.

I will win with pride.

You still haven’t forgiven him?

Human friendship is the most pointless thing.

Unless you want to be miserable,

you shouldn’t trust other people.
