You know what this is, don't you?
It looks like a medicine.
I thought it was strange why Mago would suddenly give this to me.
You asked her to give it to me, right?
Think what you want.
Chan-sung.
I'll pray for your safety.
No.
I will get in danger to make you feel uncomfortable.
What?
Chan-sung! Do you know how precious that is?
Do you know how much I had to beg to get that?
Jang Man-wol!
No place is safe for me anymore.
I will keep getting on your nerves and get in danger.
You must...
keep protecting me.
Does this medicine belong to you?
It's yours, isn't it?
Why would you pick it up and give it back to me now?
I thought you dropped it, so I brought it back as a thank-you.
Thank you.
You brought back something that's very precious.
You may go ahead and rest.
Isn't this something that will help you get rid of your fears?
Well, yes.
Then, I hope you take it and feel at ease.
See?
Even the deity says you should take the medicine.
He's very slow-witted.
He's giving you advice as someone who ran away and found peace.
Eat it.
You must've forgotten something.
If you get attacked by a ghost that holds a deep grudge, you could even die.
You almost died recently because of me.
Don't get yourself in trouble. Just live peacefully.
Eat it.
If I eat that,
I won't be able to see you anymore.
You also must've forgotten something.
I can see through you.
If I don't take care of you,
you'll only end up becoming more spiteful.
I'd rather get myself in trouble
and stop you from ending up that way.
I...
I can't let that...
happen to you.
So,
I'm going to stay beside you and keep an eye on you.
Mr. Koo Chan-sung?
What is it this time?
What brings you to my father's villa?
You asked my father for a favor back when he was alive?
Yes, he let me borrow the pond in his botanical garden.
Did you set free a pet fish or something?
It's something very special. It'll give out a lot of good energy.
My father told me about you a couple of times before he passed away.
That you helped him out a lot.
We're here to take care of his belongings.
I see.
BAEKGU
This is mine.
I spent a lot of time with him here when I was a kid.
-Mom. -Yes?
Look what I found in this book.
My goodness, when was this?
Father looks so young in this photo.
I miss him so much.
If you want,
you can write a letter and give it to me.
The hotel I work at provides
a special service where you can send letters to the ones you miss.
I thought you would've already left, but I guess you waited for me.
Because I don't like driving.
If you don't like driving, why did you buy so many cars?
Because they're pretty.
I'm going to buy every single car you sold.
With what money?
You said you're willing to go through trouble,
so let me be a little cheap while I'm at it.
Give me the painting of Baekdu Mountain.
Do you think I'll give that to you? That was my severance pay.
I just dropped it at your place. It's mine, so give it back.
There's a famous restaurant nearby that once aired on TV.
Let's go there.
A famous restaurant?
It must be baffling to hear me talk about food in this situation.
You must be feeling furious.
That's exactly how I felt.
Let's go.
If we don't get to the restaurant before it closes because of you,
that painting of Baekdu Mountain
will never be yours.
Your favorite celebrity, Kim Jun-hyun, came here as well.
Oh, right. You should take a photo.
THE GUYS WHO DIED AFTER EATING
I'LL VISIT EVERY FAMOUS RESTAURANT IN THIS COUNTRY
There aren't any naengmyeon restaurants
or any shopping malls around here.
Why don't you just come back to Myeong-dong?
This place is too far away from my house.
Just work at the hotel you used to work at.
The owner of that hotel
seemed very fond of you earlier.
I'm just interested in being liked by my current boss.
And to make that happen,
I'm going to challenge myself.
Promise that you'll reinstate me if I eat this in one bite.
Are you serious?
Kim Jun-hyun can eat the entire thing in one bite.
You're no match for him.
You'll never be able to do it.
Just give me my job back if I succeed.
Don't even bother.
I don't watch his shows anymore.
You used to like him so much. You abandoned him as well?
Yes.
So if you succeed,
you should become a comedian instead of coming back to my hotel.
Is it that easy to give up?
No, not really.
He's on almost every TV channel.
I hope the food here tastes really horrible
so that I'll never think of it again.
THE GUYS WHO DIED AFTER EATING
I told you to park the car and go. Why are you following me?
To make it hard for you
to give up on me.
But right now, I'm here to meet the chairman.
His granddaughter asked me to give this to him.
I'll give it to him.
No, how can I trust you?
I'll give it to him myself.
I'm the owner of this hotel, and you recently got fired.
Ms. Jang.
Mr. Koo, I see you also came to work.
He's not the manager here. He's just visiting.
Go ahead and meet the chairman.
I have something urgent to tell you.
Are you saying the guests you guys brought were all murdered?
Yes, we saw them buried in the woods. And there were no graves.
I called the police from a payphone.
It was on the news.
A number of corpses have been found. Everyone says it's serial killing.
Judging from what the guests are saying,
it seems to be true that they were all killed by the same person.
They all said it was a stranger to them,
but they all agreed that it was a young man.
It's that guy.
I'm sure the owner of that car is the killer.
I jotted down the license plate number.
-Let's find him and-- -Don't get involved.
Hyeon-jung already called the police,
and the fact that the bodies were found was on the news.
Since the killer is alive, the police can catch him.
All we have to do is take good care of the dead victims until they can see that
and leave at peace.
Make sure to install a television if they want to watch the news.
Give them access to our Wi-Fi network
so that they can search the web.
Yes, ma'am.
Are you okay?
The police will catch him.
Hyeon-jung, you called the police,
so the cops must be so confused now.
The call was made from this payphone,
but no one was caught on the security camera over there.
Was it a ghost?
It's so odd.
Ghosts don't exist.
What's odder to me is how payphones like this still exist.
Do you have any change?
Oh, yes. Just a second.
Here you go.
Thank you.
I'll give you this in return.
It's all right.
Gosh, no. If you lose this,
you'll stay a bachelor.
For the rest of your life.
Forever.
You won't even be able to date anyone.
Don't ever lose it.
Hey.
Right, yes.
Wait, ma'am.
What was that about?
For the rest of your life.
Forever.
DEAR GRANDFATHER WHOM I MISS DEARLY
I'M SO HAPPY I CAN WRITE YOU A LETTER
Your granddaughter is
very sad about not being by your side in your final moments.
She was studying abroad at the time.
I get to see her like this.
I owe it all to you.
I guess you rode your motorcycle earlier. That suits you.
You think so?
I never got to do this when I was alive,
thinking it'd be frowned upon.
Thanks to you, I get to enjoy this as well.
I'm glad to see you happy.
Isn't my granddaughter so pretty?
Yes, she is.
-Do you have a girlfriend? -Pardon?
My granddaughter doesn't have a boyfriend yet.
Her name is Jeong Ji-eun. She's 25.
She's just been studying, so she can't pick out good guys.
I always wanted to find a nice, reliable guy for her.
Oh, I see.
I'm sure she'll meet a wonderful man. Don't worry.
I'll be off, then.
Chan-sung doesn't have a girlfriend.
You seemed curious about that nice, reliable guy.
Is that so?
Then shall I tell you more about Chan-sung?
Shall I tell Chan-sung to take care of this since he's here?
Forget it.
Ms. Jang, there you are.
What is it?
I curried favor with Chairman Wang
as per your order.
Good. So have you found out anything?
He entrusted me with taking care of something
that is still bothering him very much.
Look at you. Well done, Seon-bi.
You sure are a capable man.
Once again, you proved to be such a useful asset.
Chairman Wang
has a granddaughter that he absolutely adores.
He's still upset that he couldn't find a nice guy for her,
so I promised him I'll hook her up with a nice guy.
You'll find a guy for her!
Great. If all goes well, he'll buy you a nice suit.
He's a chairman. He won't stop there.
You're absolutely right.
You'll find a nice guy for his granddaughter.
He'll have to take care of this for us at the very least.
You have nothing to worry about now.
I knew it.
You're the ace of our hotel, without a doubt.
And Chairman Wang really likes the guy I recommended.
My gosh, Mr. Kim.
I'm sure all the work at the bar keeps you busy enough.
When did you have time to go out, meet people, and recommend someone?
I don't have time to meet new people. I only know one guy.
What?
I recommended Koo Chan-sung.
You mean the manager of our hotel,
Koo Chan-sung?
He's no longer our manager.
I know it's been bothering you as well.
Let's marry him off to the granddaughter.
He won't ignore us if he marries into that rich family thanks to us.
We'll get money from Chairman Wang and Chan-sung.
We'll kill two birds with one stone.
Did he leave already?
I have to give him the granddaughter's number.
Just trust me.
Where did he go?
That dunderhead.
Did Mr. Koo leave?
No, I didn't see him leaving.
That means he's still here. All right, catch you later.
TO MS. JANG MAN-WOL, I LOVE YOU
She still has this.
-You're still here. -I will leave soon.
Mr. Koo?
What is going on?
Is he in Ms. Jang's office?
Mr. Koo!
He's not here.
What's the matter?
I have to...
My gosh.
Would he be in the garden?
What's with him? Goodness.
Do we have to stay like this?
Why do we have to do this?
You don't like money, right?
You prefer plain things
over fancy things.
You love that tacky poop...
I mean, you like dull colors like brown.
Right?
Is this your way of pressuring me to give you the painting of Baekdu Mountain?
Now I see.
You are greedy for money.
Yes, I am. I want to make a lot of money.
Is being money-grubbing something to brag about?
Is that what they taught you at Harvard?
Yes, MBA programs teach you how you can earn money.
Okay, you show-off.
You greedy fraud from Harvard.
-What-- -I hope you become filthy rich.
Then own a hotel!
Get out!
Why...
She's so mad at me for not giving her the painting.
Jang Man-wol.
I'll give you back the painting of Baekdu Mountain.
And as for the medicine, you should keep it.
It'll be the last way
for me to run away
and for you to abandon me.
I'll wait for your call to reinstate me back at the hotel.
And the meal we had today.
I enjoyed it.
Let's...
go and have another meal there.
My wife hasn't been home for several days now.
That's why I'm calling you.
If she calls you, please tell her that I'm sorry.
Please tell her to come back home.
Thank you.
Gosh.
No!
Honey!
Oh, no!
What happened to you? What is this? Honey.
What happened to you? Honey.
What...
What is this? Why...
Wait. Why...
It's just like the tip. There's a body here.
You're under arrest for murdering your wife, Lee Do-yeon.
-I didn't kill her. -You have the right to remain silent.
And you have the right to an attorney.
What about the shovel? Get the shovel. The one with dirt on it.
There you go. That's it.
You ought to arrest a serial killer.
Bye.
Darn it.
Why do you hate Seol Ji-won so much?
Did something happen between you and him in the States?
Not between just the two of us. Among three people.
Chan-sung was involved too?
It was after you went back to Korea.
A Korean international student committed suicide in Boston.
But there was a ridiculous rumor she killed herself because of me.
What? Because of you?
No way. Who would believe that?
People did.
That ridiculous rumor snowballed.
Later, people said that I was a rich piece of trash
who toyed with the poor International student and made her
do something nasty with foreign friends.
Afterward, on an online forum, people started to bet
on whether I'd kill myself or not.
And the guy who set up the whole thing...
Seol Ji-won?
It's you, isn't it?
You're the one who spread the rumor about Jae-in.
I just said
that I saw you invite her to the party you had with rich European friends.
She...
She came to work as a waitress.
She said she needed money for her tuition,
-so I got her a job-- -She could have done something else.
Don't get so worked up because no one will believe you.
Actually, everyone was fed up with your righteous acts as a rich guy.
Keep your chin up.
I made a bet that you'd live.
What are you doing here? I've been looking all over for you.
Let's go eat.
When I was in misery and almost thought about dying,
Chan-sung came to me.
That day, he took the box with the gun and went to see Seol Ji-won.
After that, Seol Ji-won went back to Korea all of a sudden.
What did Chan-sung do that day?
I don't know that either.
Well, anyway, after that, he always found me to have a meal with me
until the rumor died down.
That's how you two got so close.
Who threw these out?
Today's not the day. It's tomorrow.
I'm sorry.
Chan-sung, I brought some pizza for you. Go wash up.
Thank you.
The recycling trash goes out on Saturdays.
Don't tell Chan-sung that we met Seol Ji-won at the gathering today.
I don't want Chan-sung to have anything to do with that jerk.
Okay. I won't tell him.
It's my loss. There's no guy better than Chan-sung.
I think Chan-sung would make the best grandson-in-law.
I understand that you like Chan-sung, but you have already passed away.
How can you pass on your message to your granddaughter?
That brings me to my next point. I'd like to make
a special request to your hotel.
The bartender told me all about it.
I heard that your hotel provides a dream call service
where the dead can talk to the living in their dreams.
I heard that I could pay you with the money from this world.
I just remembered an asset I forgot to take care of.
Grandpa.
You received my photo?
The guy who gave me this photo is really my cup of tea.
Mr. Koo Chan-sung?
That's right.
I really hope that young man can be your husband.
Let me tell you about the guy.
Your time is up.
It was very expensive to make this call. Is it supposed to be this short?
Then, why don't you make another call?
The rule says you can only make a call a day.
You must think about other guests too.
But I think you told her all the important parts.
Ms. Jang, will Mr. Koo really
marry into the wealthy family?
Kids these days rarely listen to old people.
She never listened to her grandfather. Why would she now?
My grandfather came to me in my dream last night.
He told me that he received my photo.
Really? You must've been happy.
Also,
he told me something else.
I really hope that young man can be your husband.
Use this.
Could you please clean this for us?
Thank you.
Mr. Koo?
Have you eaten?
I'd like to talk more about my grandfather with you.
Sure, let's grab a bite to eat.
What do you like?
Here he comes!
Did you really murder your wife?
Why did you kill the others that were buried?
Are there any more victims?
What was the reason behind these murders?
-Is there an accomplice? -Are there any more victims?
-Please say a few words. -Any words?
-Over here! -Sir!
MAN ARRESTED FOR MURDERING HIS WIFE
That's not right.
The guy had a smaller build.
What guy?
I don't think this man is the killer.
All we have to do is find the car 0963.
What? 0963?
Did you memorize the license plate number?
Yes.
Forget it like you forget English words.
Darn.
My friend owns the place, and the food is quite tasty.
-It's Mr. Koo. -Sanchez!
-How have you been? -And you?
-Do you know Sanchez? -We're in the same yacht club.
-It's been a while. -Really?
What a coincidence.
-I should visit there sometime. -You won't be allowed in.
That's not true.
You could if you had a hotel of your own.
I was going to talk
about the car with Mr. Koo, but he seems busy.
Actually, he doesn't work at the hotel anymore.
What?
-He'll marry into a rich family. -I can use my experience
as a hotel manager
to greet the members and help with their baggage.
-That's nice. -And see them off later.
KOO CHAN-SUNG
I'll wait for your call to reinstate me back at the hotel.
Ms. Jang!
They met!
The blind date happened.
What? They met?
I saw Mr. Koo meeting Chairman Wang's granddaughter.
I haven't seen him smile so widely before.
Of course.
Who knew he had such an ambition?
I'm not sure about that.
He's always been the friendly type.
You should see for yourself then.
They agreed to meet tomorrow as well.
Mr. Koo invited her over to his house.
That means she's going to meet Mr. Koo's parents.
Mr. Koo's father passed away, remember?
I'm not sure about his mother.
Is his mother still alive?
How should I know?
You're always bitter when this comes up.
Anyway, wouldn't it be great if this leads to Koo Chan-sung
getting his own family?
You know how warm he's been to our guests.
This must be the work of good karma. And I'm so happy for him.
Is that so?
May he be full of luck then.
Are you cleaning because Ji-eun is coming tomorrow?
Yes, it should be clean.
Dating someone else will help him forget about Man-wol.
Still, he plays it big.
He only goes for a woman who has a hotel of her own.
There's a book here that's haunted by a ghost.
That's ridiculous.
My cousin's a librarian here, and she told me.
The ghost that donated it comes along whenever you pull it out.
Sounds like fun.
Where's the book? Let's post it on social media.
-This way? -Yes.
Okay, I'm filming.
-Pull it out. -Got it.
It won't come out. I'm not kidding!
-Come on already. -It really must be haunted.
What's wrong?
Seol? Are you all right?
Seol?
Hey! Are you all right?
EXISTENCE AND TIME
Are you all right? Seol, wake up!
Come on. Please.
Wake up.
If Chan-sung hasn't taken the medicine,
then he can probably see the connections that were cut off.
It's the side effect of being able to see ghosts.
I hear you made two incompatible souls cross their paths.
It's always fun to make enemies of previous lives meet again.
They're drawn to each other because of leftover feelings.
My goodness.
How pretty!
-Are you getting in? -Yes.
Excuse me.
Is this yours?
Thank you.
Look.
Just look at this.
This is all because of your pen.
This is brand new, you know.
I'm terribly sorry. What can I do?
You can pay for the dry-cleaning.
I'm busy today, so give me your number instead.
Sorry?
Hold on.
This ink is black.
You're right. It's very black
even though it's pink on the outside.
Forget it then.
Excuse me.
This pen is important to me,
so let me pay for the cleaning for getting it back to me.
May I have your number?
Sure thing.
So this is the library the chairman established.
Yes, this must be why my grandfather came to me
in my dream.
I wanted this would happen the moment I met you too.
I'm sure my grandfather will be very happy.
Shall we go?
Are you happy now?
They make a nice couple.
Then, as you promised,
I will keep that money.
You can keep watching them here.
You are so pretty.
You are like a princess.
Really?
-I hardly recognized you. -Thanks.
How is your mother?
She is healthy and doing well.
-Good. I need to visit her. -Yes.
This is Koo Chan-sung.
Hello.
Nice to meet you. I am Koo Chan-sung.
Jang Man-wol.
Why are you here?
Chairman Wang wanted to see his granddaughter.
He paid a high price for the dream call, so this is a special service.
You can ignore this and go.
Since you are here, why don't you look around the library?
There are many good books
and nice paintings here.
Forget it.
I'm going back.
Come on. Take a look around the library.
There's a nice painting here.
I sold this.
If we waited for the memorial hall to be built,
you'd probably collapse first.
So his granddaughter and I decided to hang it here.
I came here to sell this. What did you come to sell?
What kind of a deal did you make with the chairman without me?
And the "high price for the dream call"?
You don't need to know.
There are many good paintings here?
Why don't we look at them?
How much did you rip off from the chairman?
Just a little. Very little.
Actually, that's the chairman's painting as well.
I feel a bit like committing fraud.
You are a greedy fraud from Harvard anyway.
A fraud?
You keep calling me that. Take it back.
-I don't want to. -You don't want to?
That's not what matters. Take back what you said.
That guy called Chan-sung
seemed nice.
Are you seeing him?
I wanted to.
He told me there is someone else.
The cafeteria of this library is not bad at all.
Isn't it?
I came here often with my father when I was young.
The food was also good then.
Did you live around here back then?
Father wanted to send me to an elementary school around here.
The rent in this neighborhood was so high that we couldn't get a room.
But we came here often.
Because the food was cheap and tasty.
Did you only live with your father from the start?
Yes. The reason my name is Chan-sung is
that the only person who wanted me to be born was my father.
He felt bad about that so he named me Chan-sung.
But he didn't know Chinese characters very well.
So my name means a brilliant star.
The reason your father sold you
was not to save himself.
It was because of you.
Because you would be alone without him.
Of course I know that. He was my only family.
If you are finished, let's go and read some books.
Books?
I can't do that in this condition.
-Why? -My clothes don't suit books.
What's that got to do with books?
It has everything to do with them.
Look. I have to take a photo at the library
to post it on my social media.
What I'm wearing isn't appropriate.
God...
Have some coffee and wait for me.
I'll get changed and come right back.
There's no need for that. Sit down.
I didn't mean to go to read books.
I want us to find the ghost attached to a book.
There is a rumor that there is a ghost around here.
The director of the library is very worried.
If there really is a ghost, we should take it to the hotel.
There is a book with a ghost?
Yes.
The rumor is that the ghost donated the book before.
She was an elementary school principal and she died not long ago.
Her family donated her books.
The book must have been precious to her.
I don't know.
Most people easily throw away things they used to care about.
They protect things they want to hide with their life.
That ghost must have got nervous when so many people came
to pull the book out because of the rumor.
What's there to hide in the book?
It's probably her emergency money.
Gosh.
She speeds up only when it's about money.
You're the human, so you pull it out. The ghost won't come out if I do.
Existence and Time.
Nobody would want to read a book with that title and look.
I read it.
I'm sure you did.
Since you're such a smarty-pants, Koo Chan-sung.
You're so great.
Right. I read it to show off.
But it was difficult to understand.
I've been alive for over 1,000 years, trying to kill time.
Even I don't know what is existence or time.
You've only lived for about 30 years, so how could you know?
Let's see what this book tells about the time.
The ghost might not appear if I'm here.
I'll be near the bookshelf in the back.
You can see me?
Yes, I can see you.
What are you doing here?
I don't want anyone to read this book.
Is there something you cherish in this book?
Or is it something you want to hide?
Can you get rid of something inside the book?
I will help you.
To do that, I have to take out the book.
It's the past I have been hiding.
My family must not find out about it.
Please get rid of it.
The lady we just saw...
I think she's my mother.
I have never seen her.
I didn't even know she passed away.
I didn't know my father sent these photos to her.
CHAN-SUNG AND I ARE GOING TO THE US
It wasn't something she cherished.
It was something she wanted to hide.
I guess...
she really didn't want me to be born.
You volunteered to go through trouble.
That's why you ended up finding out about this.
It's just useless and upsetting.
What? Am I wrong?
Are you going to say you felt happy to see your mother?
Do you want to take her to the hotel, so you could be a filial son?
Do you think I'd want to do that?
Good.
Give me that. Let me put it back.
We'll just let that ghost stay there forever.
That's not...
what I want either.
Then what do you want?
You ended up going through this because I made you see ghosts,
-I should at least do something for you. -I'm just sad...
that I wasn't able to feel happy when I got to meet my mom...
for the first time.
Just let me grieve for now.
Never mind. Just go.
Did something happen? Why do you look so upset?
Well...
I just feel a little sad.
I'm glad you're here. I'll cheer you up.
Let's go. I'll buy you a drink.
Hey, you lost a button.
Where did you lose it?
You're making me feel sorry for you.
Was she trying to console me?
Sanchez.
Hey, Mi-ra. I was just about to leave with Chan-sung.
What? Chan-sung's here?
I don't think you can join us today.
You'll have to eat alone.
I have company. Someone will be here to eat with me.
-Really? -Yes.
Gosh, this place is nice.
What's going on?
Chan-sung, say hello. He's Park Yeong-su.
I helped him find something that means a lot to him.
So he's treating me to a meal.
He died...
because of you.
What?
I know, right? His looks are to die for.
My gosh, Mi-ra.
He's a cop.
I heard you're going to leave with Sanchez.
See you later.
What's wrong? Do you know him?
No, I don't know him.
But Jang Man-wol does.
Man-wol?
Does he know her too?
No, he probably doesn't.
Sanchez, I don't think I can drink today. I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Tell me if Chan-sung ever told you anything personal about his life.
Does he have any relatives that he keeps in touch with?
What about his friends? Who else is he friends with other than Sanchez?
No one knows anything? Seriously?
Mr. Koo always stuck by your side...
I mean, he always spent time with you.
Don't you know anything?
It's natural that I don't know since I'm his boss, but his colleagues should.
How can you be so indifferent to your colleague?
Seon-bi.
You even recommended him to the chairman, and yet you know nothing?
I only recommended him because he has a kind heart--
Hyeon-jung, weren't you pretty close to him?
Well, from what I remember,
Mr. Koo
likes the color brown.
Even I know that.
The Grim Reaper's here.
Will you stop nagging at them?
You don't seem to know anything either.
What about you then? Do you know anything?
You saw him very often.
I get that you guys are ghosts,
but you're all so cold-hearted.
Ms. Jang, why don't you just ask him yourself?
He's here.
I thought you'd be sad for a long time.
I guess you're okay already.
I'm not okay yet.
But I came because of you.
Because of me?
I think...
I stirred up your existence and time this time.
I met someone from your painful memory.
BEOMCHEON CENTRAL POLICE STATION
He used to be a thief.
But now, he's a cop.
You're living a good life again.
I'm glad.
What a relief.
Do you want to go
and talk to him?
No.
I'm nobody to him.
He was like a family to you.
Will you be okay?
I won't be okay.
It's a bit sad.
I brought a connection
from your past again.
Thank you.
Chan-sung.
-Let me see. -Gosh. No.
The serial murder case.
You got the analysis report on the dirt from the shovel, right?
Pardon?
Yes, the dirt is the same as that of the hill where the bodies were found.
Right?
But why does that suspect keep denying that he killed them?
This is giving me a headache.
But the thing is
he doesn't have any motives other than his wife's murder.
He's a typical psychopath.
A murder fanatic.
The end.
So there's a problem with the stuff the truck was carrying that day.
Everything arrived without a problem.
Check the name of the reservation one more time.
The reservation with the truck, 3465, was made
under Koo Chan-sung.
-Who? -Isn't this Mr. Koo Chan-sung?
Koo Chan-sung?
No way.
Koo Chan-sung.
Why am I running into you here?
Chan-sung.
Are you staying home today again?
-Yes. -You're not going to the hotel?
You kept going there and said you'd be reinstated.
I have unfinished business here.
I don't think
I can take care of the hotel guests if I go in this state.
EXISTENCE AND TIME
Will I find an answer once I'm done with this difficult book?
A way to console a guy
whose existence and time he spent with his mom
have completely been denied.
Are you worried that the secret you've been hiding would be exposed?
Don't worry.
Your son doesn't want that.
He's sad.
And I want to console him.
I need you.
I will
escort you to my hotel.
Reinstated.
Come to the hotel. Take Line Four.
A guest you must send off is waiting.
A guest I must send off?
Mr. Koo, congratulations on your reinstatement.
You came back to Myeong-dong.
I like this place way more than the other place.
I look forward to working with you again.
I thought he would marry into the rich family.
He came back to this hotel of ghosts.
How could a man have no ambition?
Ms. Jang needs Mr. Koo.
Ambitious men aren't popular among ladies.
You're so behind the times.
Besides, I told you to stop talking like a dinosaur.
I did change the way I talk.
Right? Gosh.
I'm sorry for having kept you waiting.
Thank you for coming.
May I keep
the photos from the book?
Could you do that?
I'm very...
sorry.
Goodbye.
Mother.
Did you see her off?
Yes.
I'm sorry I took the liberty of bringing her here.
Thank you for bringing her here.
Also
for telling me to return.
It's embarrassing for me to say this, but let's get things straight.
You didn't return because I told you to.
You did it for me.
I could've forced you to eat the medicine so you could never return,
but I didn't do that.
I thought you returned as you pleased
every time I gave you a chance to run away.
But in fact,
I was hoping you'd return.
I'm glad to hear you admit that I wasn't the only clingy one,
wanting to return.
Chan-sung.
I'm going to use you.
You brought both that woman and Yeon-u
to me.
Which means
you'll bring him too.
Yes, probably.
I'm certain that you will.
And
I will never let him
pass by unscathed.
That's why you'll use me?
That's right. I'll be vicious and cunning.
And you may end up
being used, abused, and wrecked because of me.
Are you...
-threatening me again to make me run-- -No.
Don't run away.
You've already made up your mind
to get on my nerves and get in danger.
Knowing that such danger
could lead to death,
stay by my side.
Even if I...
go berserk, do crazy things,
and vanish one day...
please stay by my side.
No.
I won't let you vanish.
Trust me.
It must be pretty hard to miss something you can't see.
You, I'm going easy on you because you have a soft heart.
You probably saw the flowers. Why aren't you saying anything?
We have to go before Ms. Jang does,
so let's prepare ourselves for that day.
They look so pretty now. Why must they fall?
It's sad.
Flowers bloom
only to fall.
