TALE OF THE NINE TAILED

Should I stomp him?

Let's stomp.

EPISODE 5

Why, you--

Do you even wash your hands after you pee?

You know how germy our hands are, huh?

E. coli, norovirus, and so much more!

Not the stroller!

-Don't kill him.
-Why not?

A Green Mothers' Society should
set an example for a child.



Geez, you're spoiling her.

Attention, everyone.

Allow me to get rid
of your traumatic experience today.

Goodness.

Today, we did not beat you up
nor did you come to Myoyeongak.

Look what we have here.

We have another Yeon, huh?

Ah-eum.

You're the one
who still grieves for that woman.

While I stand here facing you.

Just die.

Wait.

Please don't go.

I missed you.



I missed you so much,
I thought I'd lose my mind.

Don't ever leave me again…

Ah-eum.

Damn it.

What was I expecting?

Moo-yeong has returned.

Do you remember?

When the three of us used to race,
you always came in first.

I always watched you as I ran.

Only you.

Just like then…

I only seem to be watching you walk away.

Hong-joo?

Good night, Yeon of the year 1938.

You're him, aren't you?

-Wait. What do you mean?
-You can't fool me.

You stole all the jewelry from my house!

You have proof?
You don't have CCTV here, no?

CC… Oh.

So that's how you want to play?

You'll be on the front page tomorrow.

"The thief who robbed
seven homes of gold mining royalty."

-No, the other houses weren't me!
-Did you just confess?

Damn it.

Give me the camera.
You don't have my image rights!

-Give me this shirt!
-Give me the camera!

Give me the--

-Gosh, what are you doing?
-Give it. Give it to me!

Damn it!

What are you?

How are you fine after getting shot?

Well, it's something like…

It's like my specialty.
I don't seem to die from gun shots.

This gun wound…

I don't believe you,
but if you're speaking the truth…

What's your opinion
on Japanese imperialism?

What?

Why would the Governor-General want Mi-ho?

If the reward is enough to buy a house,
this is serious, right?

Want to see something?

Now, guess where it is.

-What the-- Huh?
-Okay. One more time.

What's this? She gets it right every time.

They say a foundling brings fortune,
but she's a natural gambler.

You'll bring me
a mountain of wealth, right?

Wait a minute…

Wealth and fortune…

Could she be a "fortune god"?

FORTUNE GOD -
INDIGENOUS GOD BRINGING FORTUNE

They say a fortune god chooses
where they will nest.

Whenever we left her elsewhere,
she kept coming back.

Don't they usually nest underground?
As a snake or a toad with no face.

Who are you? Huh? Tell me.

It's only a matter of time
before the Governor-General finds us.

Red-white mask is coming, too.

Is staying here the best choice
for her well-being?

Jung Dae-seung from Jongno Station?

That snake tried
to use us as human shields.

With Madame Ryu absent,
where did you go in all this mess?

What's this? Did Apricot report on us?

No. I didn't tell anyone about the baby.

You fool. Do you think she's you?

Don't insult me, you idiot!

-Did you just pinch me?
-Ouch!

Why do you all look like hell?

We ran into an enormous tiger,
while on the baby search.

It said, "Give me some tteok,"
so I gave it some but it didn't want it.

It preferred honeyed flavors…

-Have you gone mad?
-I'm telling the truth, sir.

Right, guys?

-Yes, he's right.
-That's what happened.

It was a tiger, sir.

You must have been possessed by something.

Something that's not a human.

Who are you?

I found the baby's location.
She's at Myoyeongak.

-I'll go get her right away.
-Not on your own.

There's a pretty strong
Joseon demon there.

I'll go there myself.

You shouldn't be seen
entering a gisaeng house.

Your identity could be compromised…

The owner of Myoyeongak,
she's the woman you met on the train?

-Yes, sir.
-Use her.

I know that bitch's weakness.

My sister is a gisaeng there.

Confirm his statement.

Oh, I also heard that someone gave out
a ton of gold in the slums.

Where?

Where will you go, ma'am?

-To Lord Lee Yeon or Lord Moo-yeong?
-I'm not sure.

They were the only friends
I had my entire life…

-My dear friends are about to start a war.
-Please don't interfere.

One way or the other,
you'll end up getting hurt, ma'am.

No. I must be the one to do it.

Perhaps…

I may have to kill one of them
with my own hands.

Have a drink.

Isn't it hard working for me?

It's already been 17 years,
since I first met you, ma'am.

If it weren't for you, I would've died
at the hands of those Japanese soldiers.

Many native dogs continue to be killed,
due to the Stray Dog Slaughter Act.

STRAY DOG SLAUGHTER ACT

ACT THAT SLAUGHTERED 1.5 MILLION
DOGS FOR FUR AND LEATHER IN WAR

When I was a mountain god,

humans used to come bearing grain
to invoke my favor.

At first, I granted every wish
just to look good.

But getting everything for nothing was
what made humans so weak and evil.

You always said so,

"We are not the protagonists
in the human world."

We must fight our own battles.

Humans, and us likewise.

My battlefield is here.

I will serve one master
until the day I die.

-Look everywhere!
-Yes, sir!

Search everywhere!

Hey, have you searched there yet?
What about here?

Hurry up!

-Searched here yet?
-Search thoroughly.

Please have mercy!

Have mercy.

The fragrant smell of blood.

Lord Lee Yeon!

Did you run around all shirtless?
It's disgusting--

-Look who I brought.
-You guys work together?

Why would you bring our victim here?

I got caught, but we made amends.

I thought you were a detective.
Do detectives steal too?

Well, it was an inevitable situation.
I hope you try to understand.

Where's your modesty?

-I saved your life.
-Whoa, whoa.

-Hand over the stolen jewels.
-Oh, wait here a moment.

-Hey, not the golden ruler.
-Yes, I know.

And the police are scouring
for Mi-ho right now.

We can trust her.
She fights for independence.

You thieves raise a baby too?
You steal her too?

-You a martial arts master?
-What are you on about?

Then don't push it with me.

-I'll make mincemeat out of you.
-What did you say, punk?

The ruler made of gold is gone.
I wonder where it went?

I'll make up for it.

Gosh, I love Gyeongseong the most.

Look at their demeanor.
They're from an organization.

You the Madame of Myoyeongak?
The Governor-General has summoned you.

I'll be back.

Have you thought about my proposal?

Let me just ask one thing:
Why the independence movement?

With this much wealth, you can shop
and golf for the rest of your life, no?

At first, I started to dig
into my sister's death.

Then, I wanted my patriotism

to repay for my father's treacheries.

Eventually, I made comrades,

and heard of a comrade's death
almost every day.

Even with all this wealth,
I'm still in debt.

Because I survived.

Why did you pick me?

I'm in the spotlight
due to family circumstances, and you…

REWARD: ONE-MILLION-WON

…have a secret to keep.

You in or out?

In this era of Joseon's disarray,

I was merely busy taking care
of an opium addict.

That always bothered me.

Who knew I'd arrive in the year 1938,

and meet an activist
who happens to look just like my wife.

It must be fate.

Gyeongseong Station tonight.

A man will come,
holding a white chrysanthemum.

Since I've already been robbed,
let's just fund our war chest.

What do I do…
I think I might get neurosis.

Can you play the piano?

Not really, I…

I can only play do-re-mi-re-do.

Handle it carefully, comrade.

Comrade?

Comrade…

Pleasure to meet you.
I am Chief Commissioner, Ryuhei Kato.

-The reason for this is--
-I heard it on my way.

I hear it's because of a wanted baby.
And she's at Myoyeongak.

It seems we'll get along well.

A bothersome jerk seems to have it.

But will Madame Ryu hand it over?

How much do you know about me?

The woman wielding Gyeongseong's funds
and information in her palm.

But strangely so…

Someone who never seems to age.

The very woman of such whispers.

Well, you see…
I have a pretty intense beauty regimen.

Well, I heard something different.

We met on the train, no?

Damn it.

What did you want with me?

As you can see, she's a demon.

-I already knew what you were.
-If so…

You must know
you can't threaten me like this.

That's why…

we've prepared a small gift.

-Who are you?
-You like the gayageum, no?

That's a familiar face.

The wound is presumed to be caused
by an instrument string.

A gayageum, perhaps?

I hear he got into a dispute
with a gayageum-playing gisaeng that day.

Her name was…

Orchid, I believe?

She confessed
before we even plucked her nails.

-That she killed him.
-What?

She killed a soldier,
so she'll be shot to death.

And Myoyeongak will be shut down.

Where is Orchid?

Bring the baby
and make the fortune god talk.

If I don't have the gold mine map
by noon tomorrow,

that girl will die.

-Start the car.
-Is this the only way?

Everything I've built
in the human world is here.

I will save Orchid and protect Myoyeongak.

The woman has the baby.

Head over to Myoyeongak
and check on their reaction.

As long as we have the hostage,
they won't move carelessly.

That woman is not to be underestimated.

-Mi-ho!
-Mi-ho!

Mi-ho!

-She's not here. Where did our Mi-ho go?
-Maybe Lord Lee Rang took her out?

No, he went to gather his men.

-I don't see Orchid, either.
-What?

She went to the bath house,
but she never returned.

What the hell is--

Say it again.

If you find the kidnapped Orchid,
she'll tell you the baby's location.

Where is Hong-joo right now?

-Tell me!
-Please find Orchid.

That's all I have to say.

Whoa! Lord Lee Yeon!

Move. I'm going to make him talk.

Move the gisaeng, Orchid.
If you don't hear from me by noon--

You're telling me to shoot her, right?

The gold mines…

How bitter!

I'm going to count to three.

Tell me where the gold mine is.

One. Two…

-Three--
-Move.

I don't know how you lost her,

but she was loved.

The three men staying
at my home may be clumsy,

but they took care of her sincerely.

A human's life depends on you.

Please help.

Thank you.

Here.

That's not a mine?

Gold can also be found in the river.

-Check if it's there.
-Yes, sir.

Come with us.

-Why should I?
-Whether humans or demons,

I can't trust you Joseon pricks.

-Where is Orchid right now?
-Hey! Do you want to see me get fired?

Who do you think I'm doing this for?

-You killed her!
-That's not it!

Goodness.

Fine. Watch your only sister die
and live a good life.

-Give that to me!
-Where is Orchid?

-Gosh, we're in a pickle.
-Why Jongno Police Station of all places?

Should we just force ourselves in?

Roughly how many people are
inside a police station?

-I don't know. At least 250 people?
-250?

We have 45 minutes until noon.

-We've no time for this.
-What about Lord Lee Rang?

-He's going to help Hong-joo.
-Then what do we do?

How about this?

No, even if my life depended on it!

Shall I do it then?
Me, the former mountain god?

-I must save my dignity!
-On about that again, huh?

-You idiot!
-Stop right there!

-Just be confident.
-Right. We're taking over Jongno Station.

Hey, can you speak Japanese?

-I studied at an academy for six months.
-Oh?

-It means?
-"Can I get a refund?"

-Geez.
-Don't be scared. Half of 'em are Korean.

You two look unfamiliar.

Oh, we're new here, sir.

-Are you two Korean?
-Yes, sir!

-I am Korean too.
-Yes, sir…

But have we met before?

Well…

I often hear that I have a common face.

-Your face is common?
-Yes.

Anyway, keep up the good work.

Wait.

You're new, so I guess you wouldn't know.

I-- I have to shave my head?
Why? Hair's everything to a man.

The war is to be prolonged.

A SHAVING DECREE WAS MADE
TO POLICEMEN IN 1938

An expression of our devotion
even on the home front.

It means to establish your resolve.

Oh, my resolve…

Here. Allow me, sir!

I was an intern
at Choi Seung-ja Hair Salon.

Not this time, sir.

Take a seat.

Okay.

Oh, look. I snipped it off.

20 MINUTES UNTIL NOON

Let's go. Go.

Take a close look. Okay?

-Yes, sir.
-Yes, sir!

-If you see anything sparkle, tell me!
-Yes, sir.

-You see anything?
-No, no. There's nothing here.

For goodness' sake.

I can't believe I'm only here to babysit.

You sure you're related to Apricot?

Why? Is she ashamed
that her brother is a sellout?

I know policemen don't earn much,
but you send her money every month, no?

-It's so endearing, I can't stand it.
-Hey, that's enough!

If it wasn't for her,
I'd have raided your place a dozen times!

If you weren't her brother,
this would be your grave.

Look at you all smiling,
without a clue in the world. Goodness.

Don't smile, kid.

If they don't find any gold today,
you and your dad are dead, you punk.

My goodness.

Why this little brat!

Look here! She just flicked me off, no?

You have no filter, indeed.

There's no gold, sir!

Get up.

You dare fool me?

-What?
-Huh?

What are you all doing? Go check it out!

Hey, hurry up and just--

-Whoa!
-Oh-- Oh!

What's that?

Come here!

It's gold…

I found gold!

Hey, carrot!

Is it really gold?

Hey, get up!

Wake up, wake up!

The governor's office offered a deal.

If I don't bring the baby,
Orchid will die.

So what's your choice?

I've already made my choice.

Hey, go to sleep.

Then, how about this?

Why don't you do the disguise?

Please hang in there until we save Orchid.
You've been doing the disguises anyway.

Only the three of us know
about this operation, okay?

Hey, your hair looks fine.

-Where the hell are we?
-We're the police, so march down and ask.

-Over there!
-I only need to ask, right? Hey.

Where's the geisha from Myoyeongak?
I have orders to move her.

-To where?
-The Governor-General.

I see. Check the interrogation room.

We go downstairs?
Hey, we have 10 minutes left!

Move it!

You, come here.

Lee Yeon? Aren't you Lee Yeon?

-Who were they again?
-The disguised raccoon couple.

Why are you here pretending
to be the police?

It's all your fault!

-We got detained handing this out!
-Silence!

-You--
-You know them?

Yes, they were mine to catch,
so they seem to have a grudge on me.

-Why you nine-tailed fox--
-Hey!

-A fox?
-He's hallucinating. He's an opium addict.

Look at his eyes. Look here!

-You're the addi--
-That's enough. Take them away!

The new guys are quite passionate, huh?

Orchid, are you okay?

-Wake up.
-Gosh, those bastards.

How could they do this to her?

Lord Lee Yeon?

-Shin-ju's here too?
-Yeah.

-Can you get up? Let's go.
-No.

If I run away,
Madame Ryu will be in danger.

Do you know what she's done to save you?

Get up. We don't have much time.

This way.

Walk straight!

-Where's this geisha named Orchid?
-Governor-General's orders to move her.

Some other guys
already came for her, though.

Hmm…

-Hey. Hey!
-Hey!

Hey, stop right there!

Stop them!

All that comes up is sand.

-Keep your eyes open!
-Yes, sir.

Tell me if you see anything sparkle!

Hurry and dig!

Excuse me, sir.
I think we need more people.

-Then we--
-You'll finish by today, no matter what.

-Understood, sir.
-Yes!

Hurry up!

Where did the baby go?
You're not even watching her. Gosh!

Where are you going, huh?

Goodness, there you are.
Where'd you think you're going?

Put me down, you damn cop.

Can you… talk?

It's a secret. Come closer.

-Screw you!
-Ouch!

Ow, that hurts!

Goodness.

Come here, you.

-Hey, control your temper.
-It's all your fault.

Will there be more gold?

-This baby bites people!
-Yeah, kids are like that.

-No, I mean she called me a cop!
-Stop being ridiculous.

But she talks so well!

Hey.

Point out all the gold mines.

Oh-- Oh, wait. Slow down.

-Are you sure?
-Yes, sir.

It includes a gold mine
being developed in secret.

This guy is the real deal.

Is that so?

No, not yet.

We must save Orchid first.

Yeon, hurry up.

-Stop there!
-Get 'em!

-Hold on!
-Don't let them get away!

Catch 'em!

-Stop, stop!
-Catch them!

Get 'em!

-Go on ahead. I'll distract them.
-Okay.

Hey, arrest me.

Where do you think
you're touching, you bastard!

What the hell are you?

Die!

Die, die!

Geez. Die, just die!

Gosh, you make my skin crawl!

Damn it.

This is why I hate disguises.

-Lord Lee Yeon!
-Those pricks touched my-- Forget it.

But how do we tell them Orchid is safe?
We don't even have cell phones.

Hold on.

What the hell?
What's with the weather, huh?

It's a sign from Yeon. Orchid is safe.

-Give this to the Chief Commissioner now.
-Yes, sir.

With this much gold,
a Hundred-Year-War sounds cheap!

-If we're done here, I'll be off.
-Not interested what happens to the kid?

I'm not really a humanist, you know.

That bitch dares to betray me?

Sorry, but I can't have the map
fall into their hands.

Your dad is dead.
So you'd become a begrudging demon, no?

Geez. Thought I'd suffocate,
all squished in there.

-Who are you?
-Me?

I'm Joseon's nine-tailed fox.

Everyone, freeze!

One more step
and this will be your cemetery.

Hey, fox-in-law.
I'll have your back. Go for it.

-Will Lord Lee Rang be okay?
-He has Hong-joo.

I'll take Orchid to Myoyeongak.
What about our Mi-ho?

I left her with Water Snail Bride.
I'll go get her.

What's this?

He reeks of blood.

Was there a demon in Joseon
with this much power?

What're you looking at?

-What's your name?
-Lee Yeon.

My name is Ryuhei Kato.
Remember it. We'll meet again.

You better stop eating humans.

Or else your head might fly off.

-Lord Lee Yeon!
-Don't come!

Lee Yeon.

You did well.

Madame, I'll never forget
what you've done for me.

It was nothing.

You almost lost everything because of me.

You idiot.

Why did you say you killed him?
You should've said it was me.

I wanted to protect you, ma'am.

As you've always protected us.

You're back, ma'am.

Perhaps, our Mi-ho is--

-She is the fortune god.
-Huh?

-She's not your daughter?
-I just pull petty tricks,

but it's my duty to protect her.

Why the form of a baby though?

As the god who controls desire,
she is born in the purest form of a baby,

and never grows old.

That's too harsh on the child.

It's her destiny as an indigenous god.

-Where will you go now?
-I don't know.

She is the one who decides
where to stay or whom to bless.

-I packed baby supplies in the bag.
-Thank you.

-Geez. Off you go.
-Can I just…

Can I hold her one last time?

Mi-ho.

I thought my back would break
from washing your diapers.

It's already farewells, huh?

Wherever you go
and whatever name you live by,

please remember us.
But I don't think she will.

Geez, stop being ridiculous.

Farewell, okay?

It's good to give good fortune to humans,
but you be fortunate too.

Lord Lee Rang, say something too.

I'm good.

Here, here.

Yes? Oh, I see.

What's she saying?

She says she prefers the bandit
over the doctor.

Gosh, I knew it.

Well-- You're not too bad yourself.

Yes?

She says you will meet someone
you've been grieving.

But because of your pure nature,
you will lose your way.

What do you mean?

Could you roll up your sleeves?

She hopes this will help you
find your way.

I'll get going now.

Goodbye.

Back when we were all poor,

Joseon people used to take in foundlings
to raise as their own.

-A child who brings good fortune.
-Stop crying.

That name saved the lives of many babies
from starving to death.

But we met the real foundling.

Excuse me…

-Geez, seriously.
-May I ask something, sir?

I hear there's a pawnshop for demons.
Do you know of it?

The pawnshop? Of course.

I bought this there.
A fan that lengthens the nose.

Don't blabber your mouth to a stranger.
This is a harsh world.

VICTIMS' CLUB
FOR DEMONS VICTIMIZED BY THE FOX

Do you know Lee Yeon?
I'm here to catch him too.

Oh, my, my! He's on our side!

-Are you good at fighting?
-Pardon?

What are you doing?
Tell him anything at all!

Perhaps, you know the location…

The pawnshop for demons only opens
on the last day of the month.

The last day?

I don't have much time…
Do you know who owns the place?

Well, there's a rumor
that he's a big shot.

-But we're not sure.
-Shall we dig around?

We've got a social butterfly
at our meeting.

Please do. I'll compensate handsomely…

-No need!
-No need!

Excuse me…

Not yet… I still have work left to do.

Father, what's wrong?

Mother, you're awake.

The King of Five Paths, right?

KING OF FIVE PATHS

THE TENTH KING OF HELL
WHO RULES OVER DARKNESS HELL

I hate people talking to me
when I'm watching movies.

I have something to tell you.

You can tell me after the movie.

It's an urgent matter.

I'm not in a hurry.

I already watched this movie.
They all die in the end.

Why you crazy--

-Hey, be quiet!
-Gosh.

I'm sorry.

My apologies…

You're one heinous being.

Want to roll around in Darkness Hell?

For what crime?

The crime…

of spoiling a movie…

That's nonchargeable.

A child who shouldn't live
has returned alive.

From the future, at that.

Who do you think did it?

Impossible.

Are you questioning the Kings of Hell?

-To be precise, I'm questioning you, sir.
-Wh--?

Always playing hooky, dipping in and out
of the World of the Living.

Playing hooky? Playing hoo--?

-What's with him?
-Be quiet!

It's not me.

I must watch movies, run my business.
I'm a very busy man.

If not the kings, then who?

-The only being with that much power--
-Is you.

There was one other guy too, no?

There's no way he could've done it.

Who's there?

You looking for the pawnshop for demons?

I am…

the owner of that pawnshop.

You're the former mountain god
of the north, correct?

By the looks of it,
you're not from this era.

And you're no ordinary merchant.

May I ask for your name?

I'm the--
Gosh. Do I have to say it myself?

There.

Five…

What's "five"?

Gosh, you're frustrating.

The King of Five-- Paths!

One of the Ten Kings of Hell is here?

Forgive me. I didn't recognize you.

I wonder how such a proper guy
has been challenging Taluipa?

I cannot enter your shop, sir.
Since you already know everything.

You're mistaken.

Pardon?

This is purely a hobby of mine.
Let's leave politics out of it.

-You mean…
-It means I quite like you.

So, what is it you want?

I want to reclaim my body.

Come closer.

Taluipa's work, huh?

-This may be quite a hassle.
-If you can fix it, I'll do anything.

If so, let's take a look.

Where was it?

Oh, here it is.

Cut the yeot, cha, cha, cha
Ja-ga-jang, jang, jang!

You don't smile at all.
Geez, such an uptight fella.

Here.

What will you give me in return?

Anything, sir.

Even my soul.

You really don't know
who red-white mask is?

How many times must I tell you?
I can't see him either!

-Then, why have those eyes at all?
-Gosh, you make my blood boil.

Hey.

So, I'm stuck with you in the future, huh?

Give the future me a heartfelt consolation
when you get home.

But I'm saying that
I might not be able to go home.

The fortune god said I'll lose my way!

Why? Because of the red-white mask!

The Guardian Stone will pave the way,
and the gate will open in time!

Just take care of the stone, you brat.

Why are you so indifferent to me?

Are you some cyborg in 1938?

Cy-- What?

Gosh, never mind.

If I don't get home,
watch me destroy worlds, Living and Dead!

Gosh, seriously.
I can't believe I traveled here for this.

Why are you lying to Yeon?

Because it's Moo-yeong…
behind that damn red-white mask.

A child born with the fate of a Gemini…

They say it's either a blessing
or a disaster to the world.

But I was confident.

That he would become
a benevolent mountain god.

Yet, you turned him into stone,

and you were heartbroken
for a very long time.

You wept bitter tears. I know that.

I tried so hard not to get attached.

You want to save Moo-yeong, right?

I'm not sure.

I'm just counting on this situation.

The fact that my future self sent Yeon

all the way here to catch Moo-yeong…

must be with good reason.

I'll be back, brother.

OBOK BOUTIQUE

Going on another date today?

He says he'll come to the club.

-I plan to win his heart over today.
-Oh? How so?

Magazines say men like women
who are good listeners.

Why? What did that punk say?

Something like, "If you want to sing,
stand firm on both legs."

"And not to become a spectacle."

That's a first.

For Lee Rang, that brat…

Gosh, it's uncomfortable.
It's way too uncomfortable.

-My neck hurts so much.
-I'm going.

Where are you going?

-Where are you going at this hour?
-I know where he's going.

He's going on a date.

A date?

I want to go too.

Oh, my. What's the occasion?

You said to come to the club with
a bouquet of flowers. As your second wish.

Right…

-Well, thank you anyway.
-Okay. Bye, then.

Hold on.

You have to watch my show.
That's included in the wish.

Really? Sure, why not.

-Wow, flowers?
-Lord Lee Rang must like her too.

Hey, doesn't she looks so kind?

She wants to be a singer,
but she's the queen of part-time jobs.

That's great!
So they'll be a working married couple.

-How old is she?
-She's 40 years older than Lord Lee Rang.

That's nothing between demons.
They're a perfect match.

You sure you can leave him?

Honestly, no.

He's only going to think
I abandoned him again.

He never knows how I feel, huh?

Drinks from the lady over there.

So it's free, right?

What do you do for a living?

Why do you ask?

You stole a girl's heart.

Perhaps you're a thief?

Are you a cop? You raiding my bandit gang?

Oh, my. You're funny, too!

Did she do this?

Wow. If they quarrel,
Lord Lee Rang will be beaten hollow.

-Whoa.
-Wow.

CLUB PARADISE

Is this how it ends for us?

Why did you lie?

Sorry, you must be disappointed in me.

-I can't believe I did that…
-I liked it.

It's much stronger than I thought.
Your combat power!

Combat power?

-It's cool.
-Really?

You're the first one to tell me that!

-Careful!
-He didn't hear it!

Can you run?

Some annoying guys have caught up with us.

I can run.

Gosh, where did they run off to?

-They're completely out of sight.
-I can't find them at all!

Are they gone--

They're gone.

Shall we go eat together?

I'm not sure.

Only if we're having naengmyeon.

-We got caught because of you.
-I can't believe I sneezed right then.

-But they're all set to go, right?
-Yes. We're done here. Done.

I need to see someone real quick.

-Who?
-I have a private life too.

-Don't wait up. Bye!
-Hey, where are you going?

Gosh, these punks--

Geez. I miss Ji-ah too.

He will definitely come…

for this treasure.

Yeon. Lee Yeon. Come play with me.

What's this?

Cheon Moo-yeong?

-Is it really you?
-Yes, it's me.

-How are you--
-Alive?

Are you red-white mask?

TALE OF THE NINE TAILED

It's no ordinary demon.

I'm going to protect you,
even if we end up in shreds.

Let's play,
just like our carefree old days.

There's someone else in this room!

-Where did Madame Ryu go?
-I must find Hong-joo.

What if this is a trap?

At least, we'll know
why Moo-yeong came to see me.

The Path of the Damned.

It's somewhere
even Taluipa can't peek into!

Yeon, please be my pawn.

I can't die here…
