Tale of the Nine Tailed (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 7 - Chapter 7: The Trap of Samsara - full transcript
Hi.
What exited the well...
went into hiding immediately.
A piece of it was found recently though.
A piece of it?
It can't be.
On her body.
She has lost the fox bead you gave her.
In consequence,
something within her awoke.
What?
Why there...
of all places...
when it took her 600 years...
to finally be reborn?
All she wants...
is to live her life out...
as normally as possible with her family.
So why...
Why is it within her?
That's her destiny.
Her destiny?
Says who?
What did she do to deserve this?
Do you dare to question
the higher powers...
at a place of the Almighty?
You already knew, didn't you?
It's why you constantly
told me to forget about her.
Right now,
I feel like I've been betrayed...
by a bank I trusted my money with.
So?
I'll need a compensation.
I took you in and helped you
when you had absolutely nothing.
How dare you have the guts to
think that I owe you something?
Enough!
Relax, Yeon.
You too, honey.
Listen to me carefully.
If I find out that Ji A
will end up dying early,
I'll make a mess of the
Living Realm and Afterlife.
I don't even want to look at you. Leave.
Did you see it?
I'm curious to know how you feel.
I feel like I might cry.
I had to wait such a long time...
to finally meet that person.
You have a lot on your mind.
Pardon? You think I'm peculiar.
Am I no longer the Imoogi you once knew?
If I've changed,
that's because the world has changed.
Imoogis and nine-tailed foxes
exist in a rapidly changing world.
There's no need to see the
world in an old-fashioned way.
Now, they will start looking for us.
That's what I've been waiting for.
I really can't wait to meet that person.
She was pretty harsh,
but I'm sure she didn't mean it.
She's very cold-hearted,
but she cared for you...
like her own son.
Don't console me.
I'm already pretty close to crying.
Yeon, don't get swept up in this.
Just act like you don't know anything.
Don't jump into fire when
you know it's dangerous.
But she'll be hurt if I don't go.
You don't want...
to see the tragedy on replay.
If you get involved, either one of you...
must die in the end.
That's become fate
for both you and her...
the moment that thing was born again.
No, Ji A won't die. Never.
I made a promise.
I promised to help her
live a proper life this time.
I'll protect her even if it ends my life.
THE TRAP OF SAMSARA
There are more moments when a
child needs her parents than I thought.
For example,
when the child takes her first step.
Who else would be that
moved that you got up...
and took just a few steps by yourself?
When I was the only one at a
picnic without a homemade lunch.
When the kid I fought with in class said,
"I'm going to tell my mom on you."
I couldn't beat kids with moms.
If only they were mean though.
If they were, I might've been able...
to forget about them
and move on with my life.
Why have you been searching
for your parents all this time?
It's simple.
I miss them, that's all.
The fox bead?
I didn't know it was that important.
You gave it to that fortune-teller,
didn't you?
He suddenly started
talking to me about my fate...
and promised to let
you go if I gave him that.
But still, how could you...
give it to him so easily
like a piece of candy?
Because I couldn't afford to lose you.
I'm going to stay here for a while.
You're going to stay?
At my house?
You're going to live here? Yes.
I've never seen a nine-tailed
fox with such an open-mind.
Then do you want to come to my place?
That's not what I meant.
Why all of a sudden?
It's the least I can do for your safety.
Don't make me risk my life to save you.
I was going to ask if you're
okay sleeping on the sofa.
You're using your life to negotiate,
so it's hard to refuse.
Why are you up? I left
after I saw you fall asleep.
I had a bad dream.
You had a dream? I saw a little boy.
And he said "Hi" to me.
And then? That's it.
At first, it totally creeped me out.
But after I woke up,
I felt pleasant to have
met him for some reason.
It felt like I knew him or something.
Yes, he's the most
precious thing in your life.
Your brother.
I'll have a cola.
Why cola?
Last time, I got drunk and ate
the pigeons in my neighborhood.
I've been trying not to drink after that.
I had enteritis.
Were you the one
who left a dead pigeon...
in front of my front door?
I went all the way there?
I don't remember.
What are you? A stray cat?
Did you fail to find what
you were looking for?
These glasses are
the eyebrows of a tiger?
So if I wear this,
I can see people's past lives?
Why do you look so sad?
I'm not sad. I'm angry. Why?
I'm angry that I still have the
emotions of a human being.
Maybe it's because I'm a half-blood.
Yes, you told me your mother was human.
Did she hold you and
carry you on her back?
Did she catch chickens for you
and feed you all the nice parts?
You're making the alcohol taste bad.
I just want to know
how it feels to be loved.
"Love"?
Mom.
Wait here for a moment.
No, I'm scared.
I'll be right back after
I gather hazelnuts.
Let me go with you.
I want to go with you.
Why do you give me such a hard time?
I haven't given up on my
life just because of you.
Do you want the both of us to just die?
Mom?
Love...
can get you killed.
The one who loves the other
person more becomes the prey.
I don't want that. I'd
rather be the predator.
Is it Shin Ju?
What has he done to sway you?
I'm surprised to hear
you talk about love.
I won't get swayed.
No matter what happens,
your enemies will always be my enemies.
You should go.
I want to be alone.
KI, KOO, YU, SHIN, RI, JU
KI, KOO, YU, SHIN, RI, JU
We got a 99.
Mr. Lee and Ms. Nam only got a 25.
See that?
According to the scientific
law of probabilities,
there is definitely something there. Yes.
Even if she is from another country
that doesn't know Confucianism,
she kissed me on the cheek
when we first met, and...
What are you saying?
Why should I get neutered?
What, do you mean,
I'm in heat? Watch your mouth.
Anyway, your mom...
pretended she didn't like it,
but she finished the chicken soup.
She speaks meanly,
but she isn't a bad person.
You know that, right?
What? You want chicken soup?
You had your dog food
just half an hour ago.
You don't remember?
You're driving me crazy.
Hey!
How long will you stand there?
All night long. All night?
Don't mind me.
You're standing right there,
staring at me.
How could I not mind you?
Should I watch from outside then?
That's out of a horror film.
You don't like this, you don't like
that. How can I protect you then?
Sleep on the couch.
No. It's outside of
the monitoring radius.
Then sleep here. Okay.
I meant in the room, not in my bed.
As I told you before, I'm modern.
I need a bed in order to sleep.
You can sleep on the
floor if you're afraid.
I'm not afraid.
Aren't you going to sleep?
I can't fall asleep.
My dad taught me this a long time ago.
If you can't fall asleep,
imagine something that makes
you happy just thinking about it.
Like mint chocolate chip ice cream?
For me,
it's the smell of freshly cooked rice.
The sound of a pencil being sharpened.
New sneakers.
Pro baseball season.
A complete set of world literature.
A puppy's toe beans.
Dad's handmade gimbap.
Something no one writes anymore.
A letter.
Your turn.
Are you asleep?
What? For me...
Red umbrella.
No!
What was that about?
Why are you smiling?
Wasn't I cool just now?
I moved quickly like Spiderman, and...
The type I hate the most.
And his nose is running.
Mister. Do you like Spiderman?
No. Why not?
I just don't. I like him.
I don't care at all.
Stop talking to me.
I'm in a bad mood
already without your help.
I woke up at 4:30...
It's almost done. Almost done.
What are you doing? Hey.
Dried pollack soup? That's right.
Did you burn this?
You are impressive.
It's not burned. It's...
What do you call it?
I'm making dried pollack soup, but...
Go buy more pollack. I used it all up.
All of it?
I added sugar by mistake.
I'll do it. Step aside.
Hi.
Hey. Did you sleep well?
Yes.
Let's have breakfast.
Dried pollack soup is
the best for hangovers.
Did you make all of this by yourself?
That isn't important.
It's the thought that
counts. That's awesome.
Good morning, Ms. Nam! Oh, my gosh.
Why are you coming from there?
I heard you moved in together.
I had to bring Mr. Lee
fresh clothes anyway, so...
Where's the bleach?
Bleach? Why?
The hard water stains
on the sink are terrible.
I scrubbed the tiles with
baking soda and vinegar.
I have to clear the drain
of all the hair too. Also!
Don't let delivery food pile up
in the fridge. They're all germs.
She's like a mother-in-law. Gosh.
I don't want to meddle
with someone else's home,
but Mr. Lee has never
done a chore in his entire life.
And he has OCD to boot.
What was that,
you punk? Enjoy your breakfast.
Where's the bleach?
It's in the bathroom. Under the sink.
He should just keep looking.
Why did he come out and...
Hold on.
Did you burn this? Well,
not "burn" per se.
It's more like I failed at
controlling the temperature.
Why are you cute in
the midst of all of this?
The dried pollack is dominating my body.
Cute? I'm over 1,000 years old.
Let's eat. Yes, let's eat.
It's soft-boiled.
Eat up.
Yes?
Ma'am.
Come in.
Here.
Thank you. Sure.
So... Ms. Nam.
I know it's not my place to say this,
but...
Please be safe.
If you get hurt, Mr. Lee...
He'll be hurt 2, 3... No, 10 times worse.
Yeon's so lucky.
He has a friend who
worries so much about him.
He's very precious to me.
I promise.
I'll do my best to be safe.
Yeon has become...
precious to me as well.
Let's go.
We'll be late. Okay.
Coming!
Where are you off to today?
Me? To work.
This place of work you implied.
Is it perhaps my place of work?
Yes, of course.
You need a pass to enter
a broadcasting station.
I'm a nine-tailed fox.
Who could get in my way?
I'll take care of it.
What's with the suit though?
It's so that I can
blend in at the office.
Don't you like it? That's
not why I mentioned it.
Only the executives wear neckties,
you see.
Really?
Can you at least discard that?
No,
I'll pretend to be an executive instead.
Good morning,
sir. Keep up the good work, everyone.
What on earth? Did
you just hypnotize them?
Yes.
Why take on a role as a director though?
In TV shows,
that's the position held by
those handsome and wealthy.
So? What will you do next as a director?
I'll wait for you right here.
Here? All day?
When it comes to waiting,
no one can do it better.
24 hours? I could sit
there even for 24 years.
Here. Right.
Have a good day.
Call me if anything happens.
Got it.
Thanks, Yeon, for being here for me.
If you get involved, either one of you...
must die in the end.
That's become fate
for both you and her...
the moment that thing was born again.
This could very well
be the last life I live.
I guess it could be worse.
Darn, I forgot to remove the nails.
Hello,
I'm the babysitter who starts today.
All I ask you is to feed him well.
Today is the day.
Today, the Imoogi will be fully grown...
with a new face and body.
A man in a navy blue suit came to see me.
He told me about the accident
that would occur on that day...
at Yeou Gogae.
Albeit faint,
signs of human branding
was present on his forehead.
"Seo" as in west and
"Gyeong" as in Seoul.
Branding the face of a criminal...
was the most brutal punishment
that involved bodily harm.
A branded criminal was
hated and looked down on...
and couldn't live among others anymore.
And "Seogyeong" is the
old word for Pyongyang.
SEOGYEONG
Why Seogyeong though?
SEOGYEONG, HUMAN BRANDING
"Those who lead the Revolt of Myocheong,"
"the uprising which aimed for..."
"the transfer of the
capital to Seogyeong,"
"were sent into exile
after being branded."
"Revolt of Myocheong."
"Those who destroyed..."
"the order of the land
with their prophecies..."
"had these words
branded on their foreheads."
"Seogyeong or Seogyeong Traitor."
Darn it. You committed treason.
Because the parents weren't
the targets of the accident.
The daughter was the initial target.
Where are you?
Right on his tail.
It seems he has someplace urgent to be.
On his own? Yes, he's alone.
Keep an eye on what Rang is up to.
I'm to look for a man...
with his crime branded on his forehead.
He's in league with Imoogi.
That's right. I'm sure that
Rang is connected to it too.
Darn it!
Did he drop his wallet or something?
Find the glasses.
Do whatever you need to do to find them.
Glasses?
Who is he on the phone with?
Good morning. Morning.
She's here. Begin the interrogation.
Time out. Jae Hwan,
let me see your forehead.
What? Why?
It's nothing.
Who's that guy?
Who is he? Your boyfriend?
I bet he's a source. How
much did you each bet?
50 dollars. Now tell
us what he is to you.
What could he be to me?
I'm just as curious too.
What do you mean?
Whenever that's the case,
feel that person's pulse.
What? The body's reaction never lies.
Why is his heart beating so fast?
Maybe his body's
reaction isn't always honest.
Have you two held hands?
Not the hands but...
You didn't hold hands,
but you did something else?
What part of him did you grab then?
Do we have a story for the next show?
My gosh, it's as if I came across
a rare item in a video game.
What? What is it?
I just want a good look at your forehead.
I know who took your glasses.
Who is it? Some kid.
A kid?
I guess you were pretty drunk yesterday.
I don't have a family.
But there's someone who
rescued me from the zoo though.
So he's your savior.
Of course. He ripped
the zookeeper into pieces.
He's someone you'll
be meeting pretty soon.
I'll be off now.
Did you think I wouldn't know?
Make sure you're all
free for dinner tonight.
The president invited us to dinner.
What is he going to buy for us?
We got invited to his house.
His house? That's going
to be so uncomfortable.
Why would you think of it that way?
He normally only invites
his close acquaintances.
But this time, he invited us.
You know what this means, right?
You know, right?
Anyway... Forget it. Let's
just all eat chicken soup.
What's all this?
What... I think there's been a mistake.
We were just about to order chicken soup.
Eat up. It's on the house.
On the house? On the house?
Why are you suddenly giving us free food?
I was told that a very
special guest is here.
I did bring 80 percent
of all the employees...
at our broadcasting
company if you think about it.
I may be a VIP customer,
but this is way too much.
You could go broke, you know.
Do you lack magnesium?
Why do you keep twitching your eye?
Enjoy.
Every ingredient that's
used to cook traditional food...
has a special story behind them.
Yes, just like the chef here.
Doesn't she speak so eloquently?
Let's eat.
You're able to receive this
kind of special treatment...
because I'm your boss.
You little minions.
What do you keep staring at?
What?
It's nothing.
That guy...
It's him, isn't he?
Yes, it's him. You sneaky brat.
Come here and join us.
Me?
Seoul is a small city, isn't it?
We all met here by coincidence.
It's not a coincidence.
Then why were you here?
Because of Ms. Nam.
What's going on between you guys?
Jae Hwan.
I have feelings for her
although she doesn't.
A one-sided love?
What a waste of that handsome face.
He has feelings for me, and so do I.
Why did you follow me?
Why did Yeon have you follow me?
Listen.
Do you still think I'm a little kid
who used to follow Yeon around?
I know you're not.
I also know that you can kill me...
without leaving a single trace.
Then tell me why you followed me.
You...
should know that better than anyone.
Do you think we're playing 20 questions?
All my life, I've lived for Yeon.
And I was able to live thanks to him.
That means I can't do anything...
to cause him any harm even
if that could cost me my life.
Are you being loyal or sympathetic?
Or are you just dumb?
It's the same reason...
why you're so obsessed
about hurting your older brother.
It's because we both like him.
I'm sorry if this is out of line,
but what do you do?
What's your job? I don't have a job.
I knew it.
You have lots of time
but no job experience.
That's explains why
you've fallen for Ji A.
Can I break his ribs?
No, you can't. Hold your anger.
But seriously,
do you really not have a job?
He gets paid rent. You own a building?
He owns 30 million
dollars' worth of real estate.
I do?
By any chance, do you have any brothers?
I do have a little brother.
Then we can be in-laws.
How old are you?
I'm not that young.
I'm a thousand... He's
older than he looks.
Have you done it once? Done what once?
He's asking if you're
also divorced just like him.
Is he the guy who got
divorced in less than a year...
Yes.
I guess you know him.
He's never been married before.
He's like a guy you'd
see in a fantasy drama.
What's up with him?
That's his ritual. He always does that.
Is it good?
Look. This is nice.
Just eat it. By the way...
I need to go somewhere.
Hey, kid. Are you okay?
You're pretty.
You think I'm pretty?
Kids these days have bad eyesight...
because they're always
on their smartphones.
A eunuch. What?
What's a eunuch?
It's really sad to
explain... I'm not a eunuch.
Do you want me to prove it?
What are you doing with a kid?
He called me a eunuch.
Kids don't know how to lie.
Hey, kid. Are you okay?
I'm scared.
What? Your face...
It's so scary.
Does that mean I have a
really bad first impression?
Yes. I heard kids don't know how to lie.
Hey, you're here.
Where is Shin Ju? He's still alive.
Don't take it out on him.
If you have something to say,
just talk to me directly.
You must care for him a lot.
I care for him a lot more
than my little brother...
who's still going through puberty
ever since the Joseon Dynasty.
Why did you put a tail on me?
I guess we're both not the
type to beat around the bush.
Why did it have to be an Imoogi?
You finally found out?
There are many other ways to harm me.
So why did it have to be that?
I figured it'd be interesting
to reenact your past.
As you know, I'm an aesthete.
Does he have something on you?
I guess he does.
We both give and take,
so I'd call it a contract.
Listen to me carefully.
Sometimes, there are people
you should never make deals with.
I need to make a living.
It's not too late to stop.
If you don't stop now,
it'll come at a price.
Let me ask you something.
What if I was the one in danger?
What if my life was at stake?
Would you have come to rescue me?
Save yourself.
You seem to be enjoying
yourself with your first love.
But if she knew everything...
that happened in her past life,
would she still stay with you?
If you touch her,
I'll really kill you this time.
Mr. Lee. I've located the kid.
Fine,
I'll let you kill me.
Give me Shin Ju.
You owe me for his life.
Mr. Lee.
Give me the glasses.
No. They're my magic glasses.
I won't go easy on you
just because you're a kid.
Stop it. I hate hearing people cry.
If it were in the past,
I would've killed you.
I'm only going easy on you
because of the low birth rate.
No.
It can't be.
Geomdoong?
Yay! I'm so excited!
Faster!
Geomdoong...
I won't give my heart to
something like that again.
Never again...
Why did you follow me?
Are you Spiderman?
You moved all quickly
and stuff like Spiderman.
You're annoying to look at.
Then why did you buy me
yummy chocolate pastries?
I'm just paying a debt.
I'm saying, "Eat this, and get lost."
A pet?
To brush their hair?
He looks dumb too.
Why did he have to be born
as a human being of all things?
Let's enter the castle.
Ms. Nam. Come quickly.
Hurry.
Okay. Hurry.
There's a second floor too.
I wonder what something like this costs.
Why? So you can buy one?
It's not bad,
but it's too far from the train station.
Whatever.
I've never seen ground
cherries in Seoul before.
Are these ground cherries?
They look like lanterns.
I used to scoop out the inside
and blow on it like a recorder.
Does this make sounds too? Of course.
My mom said it was bad luck,
that it would bring out a snake.
My gosh.
Don't touch that.
It holds a special meaning
for me. I see. I'm sorry.
I have only two rules in this house.
One. Don't touch the ground cherries.
You can't blow on it
either. It'll bring out a snake.
Second. You cannot
go up to the second floor.
Is someone there?
No, I live alone.
And the caterer.
Anyway,
he says not to go up there, so don't.
You must be hungry.
Mr. Lee. Yes?
Water.
What?
Water. Water.
Here.
The cap. The cap.
You want me to feed you?
I'm injured.
Okay, fine.
Where's Ms. Nam? She has dinner plans.
You don't need to go?
She went with colleagues.
She said she'll see me later.
Where's the chicken?
That's right. Chicken.
It's on its way.
One whole chicken. Garlic drumsticks.
Did you order original? Yes.
Seriously...
I'll let it slide since
that tastes good too.
Feed the dog before the chicken comes.
Okay.
Anyway...
Are you really in pain?
Are you overreacting so
that you can order me around?
I'm hurt physically...
and emotionally.
See? What did I tell you?
I said that necklace
thief was suspicious.
Stop calling her a thief.
She has a nice name. Yu Ri.
Whatever her name is, she used
you because Rang put her up to it.
We had a bad start,
that's all. We're a 99.
What? What's 99?
Look.
It's a marital compatibility
test using names.
KI, KOO, YU, SHIN, RI, JU
NAM, LEE, JI, YEON, A
"Nam Ji A and Lee Yeon." What? 25?
My back. My head. My legs. My heart.
I'm going to redo this. You did it wrong.
Okay, let's make a toast.
"Unveiling Urban Legends".
I hope you'll continue
to dominate in ratings...
and stay on air for years to come.
We can do it.
We can do it. We can do it.
Tell me... When we went for the shoot,
I packed a cross, a rosary,
a talisman, everything there is.
And a case of medicine
to calm his nerves.
I'm sure he was prepared.
Although he was prepared,
the camera was rattling in his hands.
Ji A almost murdered him.
That's when I realized...
that people can be scarier than ghosts.
Ji A has guts.
I recognized it during her interview
and made sure she stayed with us.
I remember. You said,
"You have to join us no matter what."
I remember something too.
When we went to the workshop,
we were in the retreat center,
and the mic broke.
So... Did you go to a workshop with me?
Yes, sir.
Anyway, do you believe in
ghosts and the supernatural?
A long time ago, I almost died.
It was a miracle that I survived.
What I met that day wasn't human.
Then what was it?
I said it was a miracle.
Gosh.
Where's the bathroom?
Go straight down the hall.
I'll be right back.
Sir. So...
You went with me to
the awards ceremony...
Is there someone upstairs?
Maybe I heard wrong.
I shouldn't be snooping
around someone else's home.
An artificial nail?
I must've been born to drink champagne.
Gosh. Stop him.
Sir,
I think you had enough. How dare you.
Champagne doesn't
even qualify as alcohol.
Shouldn't Ji A be back by now?
Why don't I look for her? No,
the guest should stay seated.
We'll be here waiting, sir.
Welcome.
Hey. What time will the dinner be over?
In about 30 minutes, I think.
Are you still at the vet? Yes.
Tell me the address and I'll pick you up.
It's fine. The others and
I will take a cab together.
All right. I'll see you at home then.
See you in a bit.
Sir...
I told you that the
second floor was off limits.
Sorry about that.
Is there someone in the room though?
I hear sounds coming from it.
It must be the wind. The
window was left open.
Let's grab some dessert then.
Sure.
Why are you crying?
Because it's been so long
since you've looked this happy.
Right.
Well, enjoy it while it lasts...
and have this be the
look you remember me by.
You're talking like
someone who's leaving.
As if that would happen.
Please live a long life...
and enjoy the happiest of
times while Ms. Nam lives hers.
Ji A,
I'm glad you're here. Are ghosts evil?
Is that why you hunt after them?
If that's the case,
they should be arrested.
Sir, let me tell you this.
I believe we are a community.
It doesn't matter if they
are supernatural beings.
When we actually encounter them,
we should thank them...
for helping us earn a
living and beg for them...
to keep the antics up.
You found this at his house?
Yes. It gives me the creeps.
It's a glue-on artificial nail
with cheap embellishments.
Who could it belong to?
It's neither yours or mine...
and none of the catering
staff had fake nails either.
Also,
his wife passed away over a decade ago.
Why don't you ask if he's dating anyone?
Directly?
How can you get by in
life with a mindset like that?
It'll make more sense to
think that he has a hobby.
Doing nail art?
As if that would make sense.
Your rice is ready.
You're home.
Did you make dinner? I already ate.
I know that, but you said
you like freshly cooked rice.
I may not be a good cook,
but I can make the best steamed rice.
So this is how it feels to
come home after work...
to the smell of freshly cooked rice.
I'll make sure you do every day I'm here.
Here.
What's this?
I picked it up on the street.
Mint chocolate flavor?
I'll go and change.
For a second,
I thought she was handing me trash.
What do you normally do at night?
Watching American TV shows, was it?
I also read and watch the news.
I usually watch movies.
Should we watch one?
Shall we?
What's this? What...
Hey. Did you see that just now?
I can't believe it.
What I read online was true.
Let me see.
My gosh. Is it on?
Try this.
What's wrong? Are you
not enjoying the movie?
I'm enjoying it.
I'm enjoying it so much
that I wish time would stop.
Me too.
For me,
it's the smell of freshly cooked rice.
New sneakers.
Put them on,
and look at yourself in the mirror.
It'll give you the
answer to your question.
New sneakers.
What kind of shoes do women like?
Excuse me, can you...
My gosh.
My goodness.
What do you want? I
sent a gift to your lady.
Have you heard of
the eyebrows of a tiger?
LEE YEON
PUT THEM ON,
AND LOOK AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR.
IT'LL GIVE YOU THE
ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION.
Gosh, how lame.
My gosh.
She means nothing to me.
Don't you get it? I used
her as bait to get to you.
Yeon.
Did you see it?
Tell me. Did you see it?
Please look at me.
What...
did you see?
I was...
murdered in my past life.
You...
killed me.
Your sole purpose...
was to find the Imoogi.
Yeon.
You used me...
to offer as sacrifice.
TALE OF THE NINE TAILED
If I ever get to be born again,
I want to live as a human being.
I'm not going to be easy on you anymore.
Where is the Imoogi?
You were born to be
offered to me as sacrifice.
She's going to be my wife.
What do you fear the most?
Yeou Gogae.
I'm willing to do anything now.
Mom!
Please hang in there just a bit longer.
What exited the well...
went into hiding immediately.
A piece of it was found recently though.
A piece of it?
It can't be.
On her body.
She has lost the fox bead you gave her.
In consequence,
something within her awoke.
What?
Why there...
of all places...
when it took her 600 years...
to finally be reborn?
All she wants...
is to live her life out...
as normally as possible with her family.
So why...
Why is it within her?
That's her destiny.
Her destiny?
Says who?
What did she do to deserve this?
Do you dare to question
the higher powers...
at a place of the Almighty?
You already knew, didn't you?
It's why you constantly
told me to forget about her.
Right now,
I feel like I've been betrayed...
by a bank I trusted my money with.
So?
I'll need a compensation.
I took you in and helped you
when you had absolutely nothing.
How dare you have the guts to
think that I owe you something?
Enough!
Relax, Yeon.
You too, honey.
Listen to me carefully.
If I find out that Ji A
will end up dying early,
I'll make a mess of the
Living Realm and Afterlife.
I don't even want to look at you. Leave.
Did you see it?
I'm curious to know how you feel.
I feel like I might cry.
I had to wait such a long time...
to finally meet that person.
You have a lot on your mind.
Pardon? You think I'm peculiar.
Am I no longer the Imoogi you once knew?
If I've changed,
that's because the world has changed.
Imoogis and nine-tailed foxes
exist in a rapidly changing world.
There's no need to see the
world in an old-fashioned way.
Now, they will start looking for us.
That's what I've been waiting for.
I really can't wait to meet that person.
She was pretty harsh,
but I'm sure she didn't mean it.
She's very cold-hearted,
but she cared for you...
like her own son.
Don't console me.
I'm already pretty close to crying.
Yeon, don't get swept up in this.
Just act like you don't know anything.
Don't jump into fire when
you know it's dangerous.
But she'll be hurt if I don't go.
You don't want...
to see the tragedy on replay.
If you get involved, either one of you...
must die in the end.
That's become fate
for both you and her...
the moment that thing was born again.
No, Ji A won't die. Never.
I made a promise.
I promised to help her
live a proper life this time.
I'll protect her even if it ends my life.
THE TRAP OF SAMSARA
There are more moments when a
child needs her parents than I thought.
For example,
when the child takes her first step.
Who else would be that
moved that you got up...
and took just a few steps by yourself?
When I was the only one at a
picnic without a homemade lunch.
When the kid I fought with in class said,
"I'm going to tell my mom on you."
I couldn't beat kids with moms.
If only they were mean though.
If they were, I might've been able...
to forget about them
and move on with my life.
Why have you been searching
for your parents all this time?
It's simple.
I miss them, that's all.
The fox bead?
I didn't know it was that important.
You gave it to that fortune-teller,
didn't you?
He suddenly started
talking to me about my fate...
and promised to let
you go if I gave him that.
But still, how could you...
give it to him so easily
like a piece of candy?
Because I couldn't afford to lose you.
I'm going to stay here for a while.
You're going to stay?
At my house?
You're going to live here? Yes.
I've never seen a nine-tailed
fox with such an open-mind.
Then do you want to come to my place?
That's not what I meant.
Why all of a sudden?
It's the least I can do for your safety.
Don't make me risk my life to save you.
I was going to ask if you're
okay sleeping on the sofa.
You're using your life to negotiate,
so it's hard to refuse.
Why are you up? I left
after I saw you fall asleep.
I had a bad dream.
You had a dream? I saw a little boy.
And he said "Hi" to me.
And then? That's it.
At first, it totally creeped me out.
But after I woke up,
I felt pleasant to have
met him for some reason.
It felt like I knew him or something.
Yes, he's the most
precious thing in your life.
Your brother.
I'll have a cola.
Why cola?
Last time, I got drunk and ate
the pigeons in my neighborhood.
I've been trying not to drink after that.
I had enteritis.
Were you the one
who left a dead pigeon...
in front of my front door?
I went all the way there?
I don't remember.
What are you? A stray cat?
Did you fail to find what
you were looking for?
These glasses are
the eyebrows of a tiger?
So if I wear this,
I can see people's past lives?
Why do you look so sad?
I'm not sad. I'm angry. Why?
I'm angry that I still have the
emotions of a human being.
Maybe it's because I'm a half-blood.
Yes, you told me your mother was human.
Did she hold you and
carry you on her back?
Did she catch chickens for you
and feed you all the nice parts?
You're making the alcohol taste bad.
I just want to know
how it feels to be loved.
"Love"?
Mom.
Wait here for a moment.
No, I'm scared.
I'll be right back after
I gather hazelnuts.
Let me go with you.
I want to go with you.
Why do you give me such a hard time?
I haven't given up on my
life just because of you.
Do you want the both of us to just die?
Mom?
Love...
can get you killed.
The one who loves the other
person more becomes the prey.
I don't want that. I'd
rather be the predator.
Is it Shin Ju?
What has he done to sway you?
I'm surprised to hear
you talk about love.
I won't get swayed.
No matter what happens,
your enemies will always be my enemies.
You should go.
I want to be alone.
KI, KOO, YU, SHIN, RI, JU
KI, KOO, YU, SHIN, RI, JU
We got a 99.
Mr. Lee and Ms. Nam only got a 25.
See that?
According to the scientific
law of probabilities,
there is definitely something there. Yes.
Even if she is from another country
that doesn't know Confucianism,
she kissed me on the cheek
when we first met, and...
What are you saying?
Why should I get neutered?
What, do you mean,
I'm in heat? Watch your mouth.
Anyway, your mom...
pretended she didn't like it,
but she finished the chicken soup.
She speaks meanly,
but she isn't a bad person.
You know that, right?
What? You want chicken soup?
You had your dog food
just half an hour ago.
You don't remember?
You're driving me crazy.
Hey!
How long will you stand there?
All night long. All night?
Don't mind me.
You're standing right there,
staring at me.
How could I not mind you?
Should I watch from outside then?
That's out of a horror film.
You don't like this, you don't like
that. How can I protect you then?
Sleep on the couch.
No. It's outside of
the monitoring radius.
Then sleep here. Okay.
I meant in the room, not in my bed.
As I told you before, I'm modern.
I need a bed in order to sleep.
You can sleep on the
floor if you're afraid.
I'm not afraid.
Aren't you going to sleep?
I can't fall asleep.
My dad taught me this a long time ago.
If you can't fall asleep,
imagine something that makes
you happy just thinking about it.
Like mint chocolate chip ice cream?
For me,
it's the smell of freshly cooked rice.
The sound of a pencil being sharpened.
New sneakers.
Pro baseball season.
A complete set of world literature.
A puppy's toe beans.
Dad's handmade gimbap.
Something no one writes anymore.
A letter.
Your turn.
Are you asleep?
What? For me...
Red umbrella.
No!
What was that about?
Why are you smiling?
Wasn't I cool just now?
I moved quickly like Spiderman, and...
The type I hate the most.
And his nose is running.
Mister. Do you like Spiderman?
No. Why not?
I just don't. I like him.
I don't care at all.
Stop talking to me.
I'm in a bad mood
already without your help.
I woke up at 4:30...
It's almost done. Almost done.
What are you doing? Hey.
Dried pollack soup? That's right.
Did you burn this?
You are impressive.
It's not burned. It's...
What do you call it?
I'm making dried pollack soup, but...
Go buy more pollack. I used it all up.
All of it?
I added sugar by mistake.
I'll do it. Step aside.
Hi.
Hey. Did you sleep well?
Yes.
Let's have breakfast.
Dried pollack soup is
the best for hangovers.
Did you make all of this by yourself?
That isn't important.
It's the thought that
counts. That's awesome.
Good morning, Ms. Nam! Oh, my gosh.
Why are you coming from there?
I heard you moved in together.
I had to bring Mr. Lee
fresh clothes anyway, so...
Where's the bleach?
Bleach? Why?
The hard water stains
on the sink are terrible.
I scrubbed the tiles with
baking soda and vinegar.
I have to clear the drain
of all the hair too. Also!
Don't let delivery food pile up
in the fridge. They're all germs.
She's like a mother-in-law. Gosh.
I don't want to meddle
with someone else's home,
but Mr. Lee has never
done a chore in his entire life.
And he has OCD to boot.
What was that,
you punk? Enjoy your breakfast.
Where's the bleach?
It's in the bathroom. Under the sink.
He should just keep looking.
Why did he come out and...
Hold on.
Did you burn this? Well,
not "burn" per se.
It's more like I failed at
controlling the temperature.
Why are you cute in
the midst of all of this?
The dried pollack is dominating my body.
Cute? I'm over 1,000 years old.
Let's eat. Yes, let's eat.
It's soft-boiled.
Eat up.
Yes?
Ma'am.
Come in.
Here.
Thank you. Sure.
So... Ms. Nam.
I know it's not my place to say this,
but...
Please be safe.
If you get hurt, Mr. Lee...
He'll be hurt 2, 3... No, 10 times worse.
Yeon's so lucky.
He has a friend who
worries so much about him.
He's very precious to me.
I promise.
I'll do my best to be safe.
Yeon has become...
precious to me as well.
Let's go.
We'll be late. Okay.
Coming!
Where are you off to today?
Me? To work.
This place of work you implied.
Is it perhaps my place of work?
Yes, of course.
You need a pass to enter
a broadcasting station.
I'm a nine-tailed fox.
Who could get in my way?
I'll take care of it.
What's with the suit though?
It's so that I can
blend in at the office.
Don't you like it? That's
not why I mentioned it.
Only the executives wear neckties,
you see.
Really?
Can you at least discard that?
No,
I'll pretend to be an executive instead.
Good morning,
sir. Keep up the good work, everyone.
What on earth? Did
you just hypnotize them?
Yes.
Why take on a role as a director though?
In TV shows,
that's the position held by
those handsome and wealthy.
So? What will you do next as a director?
I'll wait for you right here.
Here? All day?
When it comes to waiting,
no one can do it better.
24 hours? I could sit
there even for 24 years.
Here. Right.
Have a good day.
Call me if anything happens.
Got it.
Thanks, Yeon, for being here for me.
If you get involved, either one of you...
must die in the end.
That's become fate
for both you and her...
the moment that thing was born again.
This could very well
be the last life I live.
I guess it could be worse.
Darn, I forgot to remove the nails.
Hello,
I'm the babysitter who starts today.
All I ask you is to feed him well.
Today is the day.
Today, the Imoogi will be fully grown...
with a new face and body.
A man in a navy blue suit came to see me.
He told me about the accident
that would occur on that day...
at Yeou Gogae.
Albeit faint,
signs of human branding
was present on his forehead.
"Seo" as in west and
"Gyeong" as in Seoul.
Branding the face of a criminal...
was the most brutal punishment
that involved bodily harm.
A branded criminal was
hated and looked down on...
and couldn't live among others anymore.
And "Seogyeong" is the
old word for Pyongyang.
SEOGYEONG
Why Seogyeong though?
SEOGYEONG, HUMAN BRANDING
"Those who lead the Revolt of Myocheong,"
"the uprising which aimed for..."
"the transfer of the
capital to Seogyeong,"
"were sent into exile
after being branded."
"Revolt of Myocheong."
"Those who destroyed..."
"the order of the land
with their prophecies..."
"had these words
branded on their foreheads."
"Seogyeong or Seogyeong Traitor."
Darn it. You committed treason.
Because the parents weren't
the targets of the accident.
The daughter was the initial target.
Where are you?
Right on his tail.
It seems he has someplace urgent to be.
On his own? Yes, he's alone.
Keep an eye on what Rang is up to.
I'm to look for a man...
with his crime branded on his forehead.
He's in league with Imoogi.
That's right. I'm sure that
Rang is connected to it too.
Darn it!
Did he drop his wallet or something?
Find the glasses.
Do whatever you need to do to find them.
Glasses?
Who is he on the phone with?
Good morning. Morning.
She's here. Begin the interrogation.
Time out. Jae Hwan,
let me see your forehead.
What? Why?
It's nothing.
Who's that guy?
Who is he? Your boyfriend?
I bet he's a source. How
much did you each bet?
50 dollars. Now tell
us what he is to you.
What could he be to me?
I'm just as curious too.
What do you mean?
Whenever that's the case,
feel that person's pulse.
What? The body's reaction never lies.
Why is his heart beating so fast?
Maybe his body's
reaction isn't always honest.
Have you two held hands?
Not the hands but...
You didn't hold hands,
but you did something else?
What part of him did you grab then?
Do we have a story for the next show?
My gosh, it's as if I came across
a rare item in a video game.
What? What is it?
I just want a good look at your forehead.
I know who took your glasses.
Who is it? Some kid.
A kid?
I guess you were pretty drunk yesterday.
I don't have a family.
But there's someone who
rescued me from the zoo though.
So he's your savior.
Of course. He ripped
the zookeeper into pieces.
He's someone you'll
be meeting pretty soon.
I'll be off now.
Did you think I wouldn't know?
Make sure you're all
free for dinner tonight.
The president invited us to dinner.
What is he going to buy for us?
We got invited to his house.
His house? That's going
to be so uncomfortable.
Why would you think of it that way?
He normally only invites
his close acquaintances.
But this time, he invited us.
You know what this means, right?
You know, right?
Anyway... Forget it. Let's
just all eat chicken soup.
What's all this?
What... I think there's been a mistake.
We were just about to order chicken soup.
Eat up. It's on the house.
On the house? On the house?
Why are you suddenly giving us free food?
I was told that a very
special guest is here.
I did bring 80 percent
of all the employees...
at our broadcasting
company if you think about it.
I may be a VIP customer,
but this is way too much.
You could go broke, you know.
Do you lack magnesium?
Why do you keep twitching your eye?
Enjoy.
Every ingredient that's
used to cook traditional food...
has a special story behind them.
Yes, just like the chef here.
Doesn't she speak so eloquently?
Let's eat.
You're able to receive this
kind of special treatment...
because I'm your boss.
You little minions.
What do you keep staring at?
What?
It's nothing.
That guy...
It's him, isn't he?
Yes, it's him. You sneaky brat.
Come here and join us.
Me?
Seoul is a small city, isn't it?
We all met here by coincidence.
It's not a coincidence.
Then why were you here?
Because of Ms. Nam.
What's going on between you guys?
Jae Hwan.
I have feelings for her
although she doesn't.
A one-sided love?
What a waste of that handsome face.
He has feelings for me, and so do I.
Why did you follow me?
Why did Yeon have you follow me?
Listen.
Do you still think I'm a little kid
who used to follow Yeon around?
I know you're not.
I also know that you can kill me...
without leaving a single trace.
Then tell me why you followed me.
You...
should know that better than anyone.
Do you think we're playing 20 questions?
All my life, I've lived for Yeon.
And I was able to live thanks to him.
That means I can't do anything...
to cause him any harm even
if that could cost me my life.
Are you being loyal or sympathetic?
Or are you just dumb?
It's the same reason...
why you're so obsessed
about hurting your older brother.
It's because we both like him.
I'm sorry if this is out of line,
but what do you do?
What's your job? I don't have a job.
I knew it.
You have lots of time
but no job experience.
That's explains why
you've fallen for Ji A.
Can I break his ribs?
No, you can't. Hold your anger.
But seriously,
do you really not have a job?
He gets paid rent. You own a building?
He owns 30 million
dollars' worth of real estate.
I do?
By any chance, do you have any brothers?
I do have a little brother.
Then we can be in-laws.
How old are you?
I'm not that young.
I'm a thousand... He's
older than he looks.
Have you done it once? Done what once?
He's asking if you're
also divorced just like him.
Is he the guy who got
divorced in less than a year...
Yes.
I guess you know him.
He's never been married before.
He's like a guy you'd
see in a fantasy drama.
What's up with him?
That's his ritual. He always does that.
Is it good?
Look. This is nice.
Just eat it. By the way...
I need to go somewhere.
Hey, kid. Are you okay?
You're pretty.
You think I'm pretty?
Kids these days have bad eyesight...
because they're always
on their smartphones.
A eunuch. What?
What's a eunuch?
It's really sad to
explain... I'm not a eunuch.
Do you want me to prove it?
What are you doing with a kid?
He called me a eunuch.
Kids don't know how to lie.
Hey, kid. Are you okay?
I'm scared.
What? Your face...
It's so scary.
Does that mean I have a
really bad first impression?
Yes. I heard kids don't know how to lie.
Hey, you're here.
Where is Shin Ju? He's still alive.
Don't take it out on him.
If you have something to say,
just talk to me directly.
You must care for him a lot.
I care for him a lot more
than my little brother...
who's still going through puberty
ever since the Joseon Dynasty.
Why did you put a tail on me?
I guess we're both not the
type to beat around the bush.
Why did it have to be an Imoogi?
You finally found out?
There are many other ways to harm me.
So why did it have to be that?
I figured it'd be interesting
to reenact your past.
As you know, I'm an aesthete.
Does he have something on you?
I guess he does.
We both give and take,
so I'd call it a contract.
Listen to me carefully.
Sometimes, there are people
you should never make deals with.
I need to make a living.
It's not too late to stop.
If you don't stop now,
it'll come at a price.
Let me ask you something.
What if I was the one in danger?
What if my life was at stake?
Would you have come to rescue me?
Save yourself.
You seem to be enjoying
yourself with your first love.
But if she knew everything...
that happened in her past life,
would she still stay with you?
If you touch her,
I'll really kill you this time.
Mr. Lee. I've located the kid.
Fine,
I'll let you kill me.
Give me Shin Ju.
You owe me for his life.
Mr. Lee.
Give me the glasses.
No. They're my magic glasses.
I won't go easy on you
just because you're a kid.
Stop it. I hate hearing people cry.
If it were in the past,
I would've killed you.
I'm only going easy on you
because of the low birth rate.
No.
It can't be.
Geomdoong?
Yay! I'm so excited!
Faster!
Geomdoong...
I won't give my heart to
something like that again.
Never again...
Why did you follow me?
Are you Spiderman?
You moved all quickly
and stuff like Spiderman.
You're annoying to look at.
Then why did you buy me
yummy chocolate pastries?
I'm just paying a debt.
I'm saying, "Eat this, and get lost."
A pet?
To brush their hair?
He looks dumb too.
Why did he have to be born
as a human being of all things?
Let's enter the castle.
Ms. Nam. Come quickly.
Hurry.
Okay. Hurry.
There's a second floor too.
I wonder what something like this costs.
Why? So you can buy one?
It's not bad,
but it's too far from the train station.
Whatever.
I've never seen ground
cherries in Seoul before.
Are these ground cherries?
They look like lanterns.
I used to scoop out the inside
and blow on it like a recorder.
Does this make sounds too? Of course.
My mom said it was bad luck,
that it would bring out a snake.
My gosh.
Don't touch that.
It holds a special meaning
for me. I see. I'm sorry.
I have only two rules in this house.
One. Don't touch the ground cherries.
You can't blow on it
either. It'll bring out a snake.
Second. You cannot
go up to the second floor.
Is someone there?
No, I live alone.
And the caterer.
Anyway,
he says not to go up there, so don't.
You must be hungry.
Mr. Lee. Yes?
Water.
What?
Water. Water.
Here.
The cap. The cap.
You want me to feed you?
I'm injured.
Okay, fine.
Where's Ms. Nam? She has dinner plans.
You don't need to go?
She went with colleagues.
She said she'll see me later.
Where's the chicken?
That's right. Chicken.
It's on its way.
One whole chicken. Garlic drumsticks.
Did you order original? Yes.
Seriously...
I'll let it slide since
that tastes good too.
Feed the dog before the chicken comes.
Okay.
Anyway...
Are you really in pain?
Are you overreacting so
that you can order me around?
I'm hurt physically...
and emotionally.
See? What did I tell you?
I said that necklace
thief was suspicious.
Stop calling her a thief.
She has a nice name. Yu Ri.
Whatever her name is, she used
you because Rang put her up to it.
We had a bad start,
that's all. We're a 99.
What? What's 99?
Look.
It's a marital compatibility
test using names.
KI, KOO, YU, SHIN, RI, JU
NAM, LEE, JI, YEON, A
"Nam Ji A and Lee Yeon." What? 25?
My back. My head. My legs. My heart.
I'm going to redo this. You did it wrong.
Okay, let's make a toast.
"Unveiling Urban Legends".
I hope you'll continue
to dominate in ratings...
and stay on air for years to come.
We can do it.
We can do it. We can do it.
Tell me... When we went for the shoot,
I packed a cross, a rosary,
a talisman, everything there is.
And a case of medicine
to calm his nerves.
I'm sure he was prepared.
Although he was prepared,
the camera was rattling in his hands.
Ji A almost murdered him.
That's when I realized...
that people can be scarier than ghosts.
Ji A has guts.
I recognized it during her interview
and made sure she stayed with us.
I remember. You said,
"You have to join us no matter what."
I remember something too.
When we went to the workshop,
we were in the retreat center,
and the mic broke.
So... Did you go to a workshop with me?
Yes, sir.
Anyway, do you believe in
ghosts and the supernatural?
A long time ago, I almost died.
It was a miracle that I survived.
What I met that day wasn't human.
Then what was it?
I said it was a miracle.
Gosh.
Where's the bathroom?
Go straight down the hall.
I'll be right back.
Sir. So...
You went with me to
the awards ceremony...
Is there someone upstairs?
Maybe I heard wrong.
I shouldn't be snooping
around someone else's home.
An artificial nail?
I must've been born to drink champagne.
Gosh. Stop him.
Sir,
I think you had enough. How dare you.
Champagne doesn't
even qualify as alcohol.
Shouldn't Ji A be back by now?
Why don't I look for her? No,
the guest should stay seated.
We'll be here waiting, sir.
Welcome.
Hey. What time will the dinner be over?
In about 30 minutes, I think.
Are you still at the vet? Yes.
Tell me the address and I'll pick you up.
It's fine. The others and
I will take a cab together.
All right. I'll see you at home then.
See you in a bit.
Sir...
I told you that the
second floor was off limits.
Sorry about that.
Is there someone in the room though?
I hear sounds coming from it.
It must be the wind. The
window was left open.
Let's grab some dessert then.
Sure.
Why are you crying?
Because it's been so long
since you've looked this happy.
Right.
Well, enjoy it while it lasts...
and have this be the
look you remember me by.
You're talking like
someone who's leaving.
As if that would happen.
Please live a long life...
and enjoy the happiest of
times while Ms. Nam lives hers.
Ji A,
I'm glad you're here. Are ghosts evil?
Is that why you hunt after them?
If that's the case,
they should be arrested.
Sir, let me tell you this.
I believe we are a community.
It doesn't matter if they
are supernatural beings.
When we actually encounter them,
we should thank them...
for helping us earn a
living and beg for them...
to keep the antics up.
You found this at his house?
Yes. It gives me the creeps.
It's a glue-on artificial nail
with cheap embellishments.
Who could it belong to?
It's neither yours or mine...
and none of the catering
staff had fake nails either.
Also,
his wife passed away over a decade ago.
Why don't you ask if he's dating anyone?
Directly?
How can you get by in
life with a mindset like that?
It'll make more sense to
think that he has a hobby.
Doing nail art?
As if that would make sense.
Your rice is ready.
You're home.
Did you make dinner? I already ate.
I know that, but you said
you like freshly cooked rice.
I may not be a good cook,
but I can make the best steamed rice.
So this is how it feels to
come home after work...
to the smell of freshly cooked rice.
I'll make sure you do every day I'm here.
Here.
What's this?
I picked it up on the street.
Mint chocolate flavor?
I'll go and change.
For a second,
I thought she was handing me trash.
What do you normally do at night?
Watching American TV shows, was it?
I also read and watch the news.
I usually watch movies.
Should we watch one?
Shall we?
What's this? What...
Hey. Did you see that just now?
I can't believe it.
What I read online was true.
Let me see.
My gosh. Is it on?
Try this.
What's wrong? Are you
not enjoying the movie?
I'm enjoying it.
I'm enjoying it so much
that I wish time would stop.
Me too.
For me,
it's the smell of freshly cooked rice.
New sneakers.
Put them on,
and look at yourself in the mirror.
It'll give you the
answer to your question.
New sneakers.
What kind of shoes do women like?
Excuse me, can you...
My gosh.
My goodness.
What do you want? I
sent a gift to your lady.
Have you heard of
the eyebrows of a tiger?
LEE YEON
PUT THEM ON,
AND LOOK AT YOURSELF IN THE MIRROR.
IT'LL GIVE YOU THE
ANSWER TO YOUR QUESTION.
Gosh, how lame.
My gosh.
She means nothing to me.
Don't you get it? I used
her as bait to get to you.
Yeon.
Did you see it?
Tell me. Did you see it?
Please look at me.
What...
did you see?
I was...
murdered in my past life.
You...
killed me.
Your sole purpose...
was to find the Imoogi.
Yeon.
You used me...
to offer as sacrifice.
TALE OF THE NINE TAILED
If I ever get to be born again,
I want to live as a human being.
I'm not going to be easy on you anymore.
Where is the Imoogi?
You were born to be
offered to me as sacrifice.
She's going to be my wife.
What do you fear the most?
Yeou Gogae.
I'm willing to do anything now.
Mom!
Please hang in there just a bit longer.
