Van…
Mi-ho!
What happened?
-I needed to confirm. -Confirm what?
To see if he is dangerous or not.
But at the last moment, he stabbed his own arm.
So he protected the lady.
When he transformed…
he became a lust demon.
When I first met Van, I thought the same as you.
Priest Johan.
Didn't you see for yourself?
He protected the lady by sacrificing his own arm.
-That's-- -Van protected this land for a long time.
And Van has protected the lady until now.
You cannot deny that.
You confirmed your suspicions.
Now you should know.
Van is… the only one who can protect the lady.
No.
I only confirmed his true identity.
I can't let him do that.
I will protect her.
That is my choice.
I'm worried if you use your abilities too much,
you might permanently become a lust demon.
The wood smells so good.
Hello.
I'm exhausted.
Let's take a little break.
We have to hurry up to finish the course.
Are we doing a marathon at Jeju Island?
-Let's take a break. -Stop it already!
You're being a pest.
Don't come up if you don't want to, then.
You are being so weak. I can't go with you at this rate.
Whatever!
-Go up first, I will follow up. -Sure, whatever.
This is nice.
I'm dying.
This is not mine.
Grandma, did you have breakfast?
Take care of the aunts first.
Thank you.
A murder case targeting Jeju Island tourists has occurred.
The victim was a lady in her fifties.
Some of her organs have been intentionally removed,
-causing shock among the people. -Is that the Fox Demon?
It looks like it.
It takes the form of a human and eats your insides.
That sounds scary.
They said on television that it killed three people.
Grandmothers, have some breakfast.
Okay, thank you.
But, what is a Fox Demon?
Oh, that?
I heard from my grandmother when I was younger.
It lived in that village long before my grandma was even born.
It lived off eating people's livers,
and it never died.
Yeom-ji, aren't you late for school? Go on now.
I'm going now.
-I will be going now. -Okay.
She grew up so much.
MURDER CASES CONTINUE TARGETING THE JEJU TOURISTS
Mi-ho!
Are you awake?
I'm coming in.
If I knew it would be like this, I would have worn hiking clothes.
I'm sure he stopped by here, according to the phone GPS.
Is this a historical site?
Found you.
Wait.
Go back.
Before I return,
let me see your wound first.
Did you already forget?
What I did to you?
You tried to kill me.
But you also tried to save me.
Multiple times.
Don't come.
I might not be myself next time.
You protected me.
Sacrificing your own arm.
You protected me until the end.
You can't be that stupid.
I can't guarantee anymore…
that I will not kill you.
So, stop and go back.
You said you will protect me.
You promised to protect me!
Promise?
Should I show you once again
how meaningless that promise can be?
Okay, fine. Don't protect me then.
I also have a self-esteem.
I will never beg for your help again.
But… let's make this one thing clear.
It's not the promise that is weak.
It is your will that is weak.
Mi-ho!
Why did you come out?
I was not doing much.
Where did you go so early in the morning?
I was worried.
-I went hiking. -Mi-ho.
From today onward, don't go anywhere without me.
I will be your personal bodyguard, right by your side.
I was worried with Van not being here.
I asked him to do so.
But, is this right?
Johan has to investigate--
No, you said you had to study.
I am good at multi-tasking.
I will study and bodyguard you at the same time.
Miss, please consent to it.
I look forward to your cooperation.
I will get ready for work now.
Yes.
Please find out where it is.
Okay, thank you.
Mi-ho.
-Yes? -I'm over here.
Your bodyguard.
Okay, get in now.
Is it really okay for you to be alone in the counseling room?
You're not in a position to worry about others.
Are you okay to teach alone? How many classes today?
Or should I take you to the classroom?
Or how about this?
I will be a student in disguise.
A student from Italy.
Father Johan, please calm down.
If you wear the school uniform, do you think the girls will let you go?
If it wasn't for your uniform, I'd have to protect you.
No way…
-This is because of you! -Move aside!
She's the girl who met the college student.
Oh, that's her? What a joke.
It's okay.
It will be okay.
Do you know what's best for treating your wounds?
Time.
Taking care of the wound as soon as you can.
But before that,
knowing how deep your wound actually is.
It will take a while.
Maybe a lifetime.
So take your time. Don't force yourself too much.
The wounds hurt too much for that, right?
Thank you.
-But… -Yes? You can tell me anything.
Who are you?
Oh, I am…
Su-ryeon!
You came.
Yes. This is the teacher, Won Mi-ho.
Oh!
Nice to meet you. Thank you!
Sure. How do you feel these days?
Thanks to you, I feel much better.
Although… I do not remember much,
I heard from Yeom-ji.
Thank you very much.
It's fine. It was nothing.
Father, I see you came too.
Yes.
Then, is he the one…
Yes, the one I told you about.
He is the priest. Johan.
Oh, thank you. Thank you, Father.
You can stop thanking us now.
Anyways, seeing you at school is nice.
If something happens, don't hesitate to tell me, okay?
Okay.
Let's go now.
-Go in now. -Okay.
Goodbye.
-That was nice. -What was nice?
Seeing you brighten up.
Me? Since when?
Hello.
-We meet again. -Hello.
-Wow. -You saw him before, right?
He wanted to look around the school. As you can see, he's a priest.
I had a feeling! Your face shines light!
Wow, enough of your flattery.
You are picking out the bridesmaid dress today, right?
Wow, I thought you would have forgotten.
Girl, I marked it with a star on my calendar to go with you.
I will go to your cafe after work.
Sure.
Make sure to bring the priest too.
If possible, it would be nice if Butler Jang comes as well.
I can't believe you.
Are you really going to do the wedding at the cafe?
You should do it at our hotel's garden.
If I do it at your hotel, it will not be a small wedding.
It will be a big one.
What does it matter if it's big or not?
What's important is that Su-jin is getting married next week.
I never imagined you becoming a married woman.
I'm so proud of you.
I know, right?
I want to be proud of you too. Is there no way for you?
No way. Go away now.
If you have time later, please come with Mi-ho!
-You must come! -Okay.
That girl…
Honey, I'm going to go with Mi-ho later. Make us some delicious food.
Every time I see her, she has a nice impression.
Right?
The only friend who sees me as I am.
If it wasn't for her, I wouldn't have come to Tamra High School.
She is getting married next week to her long-time boyfriend.
The groom-to-be came down to Jeju and gave up everything back in Seoul.
They look so great together. I'm jealous of them.
-You're jealous? -Yes.
Let's go.
The guest should lay their hands off.
I told you I'm serving you a meal today.
I feel like my grandma.
Do you agree?
We ran out of chicken soup. Have some steamed chicken.
Have a drink of this too.
Be careful, it's hot. It's going in now.
Here you go.
I want the rice cakes.
It's good, right?
Look at the cheese.
What?
I said thank you.
What's wrong with you?
I'm sorry.
For yelling and getting mad at you before.
Hey, why all of a sudden?
If it was me, you would have done the same, right?
Just eat the chicken.
You were going to commemorate the dead looking like this?
But… why are you here?
You should be with the girl.
I can't do that. I will watch her from afar.
Why?
I almost killed her again.
Perhaps…
I might be more dangerous to her than a lust demon is.
She can live only if I am not there.
Van.
Do you know why people reincarnate?
To repent for their past sins.
And a chance to wash away their sins.
It is a chance for a new and redeemed life again and again.
Why are you trapped in a fate worse than reincarnation,
always mourning the dead with those clothes on?
The belief that you are able to release yourself from that fate.
Was it not because of that belief?
No.
It became deviated after that.
The only way I can be released from this fate…
is if I die.
I'm leaving.
-We are back. -Hello.
Good job today, Miss.
Johan did a great job comfortably riding in the passenger seat.
It was not difficult at all because I was talking with Mi-ho.
This looks great!
Hold on.
Hello? Yes.
Yes. Kang Chan-hee.
Yes, correct. He is my older brother.
Brother?
Mister, you have another nephew?
Well, yes…
Wow.
That's insane.
Okay.
It's fine.
Okay.
Johan was separated from his older brother when they were younger.
They both were adopted together and were separated there as well.
He has been looking for his brother ever since.
Kang Chan-hee! Why aren't you coming out to clean?
I'm coming!
Hey, what's taking you so long to clean?
He's so weak and slow.
We're going out now, so clean inside of the cabin as well.
He drives me insane.
Chan-hee, he is not fit for this.
What should we do with him?
So, did your pain go away?
I see you had a hard time…
looking for this.
Out of pity,
I will tell you how to get rid of your pain.
Hey, did you make sure Chan-hee does a good job?
Whatever. Forget about him.
-Captain. -Yes?
-Will you keep sailing? -I don't know. I need to go pee.
-Let me go pee first. -Come back quickly.
Let me live…
This is not mine.
Sir!
Are you going to pee all day?
Hey you, what are you doing here?
Well…
I couldn't find the gas tank.
These guys made the youngest guy do all the work
and went off to drink.
Hey, eat some ramyeon first.
Okay.
Do you really have to work here?
I need to earn money.
The way I see it,
your medicines will cost more.
Here.
Why don't you look for another job?
Take it.
You can use the motorcycle outside as well.
Thank you.
You look like the Dol Hareubang.
Bodyguard, we have somewhere to go. Come out now.
Okay, Mi-ho.
Where are we going?
Su-jin's cafe.
Johan.
Don't worry.
About what?
About anything.
You have me.
-Who? -Me! It's me.
You don't realize how dependent I can be, right?
I don't get what you are trying to say.
Just look out the window.
-I should bring this out, right? -Yes.
Su-jin!
Why did you come so late?
-Hello. -Hello.
-There are a lot of customers. -I know, right?
Where is Seung-joon?
Honey!
-Mi-ho is here. -Oh, Mi-ho!
-How have you been? -Good. How about you?
Here you go.
Wow, that looks delicious.
Father, eat up.
Thank you.
And…
here is the wedding invitation.
It's so pretty. You said it was next week?
Yes.
Father, if you come to give your blessing, it will be much appreciated.
Hey!
Wow! What's this?
How does it look?
Wow.
Model pose!
Su-jin, it's beautiful.
Pose!
Wow!
-How is it? -It's beautiful.
-Really? -Mi-ho, you look pretty.
-Is it pretty? -Yes.
-Does it fit well? -Yes, how did you make it so pretty?
Making the wedding dress and the bridesmaid dress
all by myself with my own design was my dream.
It's the best.
Su-jin learned to sew.
Really?
Oh, right. Honey, Mi-ho gave us as her wedding present
an unlimited stay at Daehan Hotel suite room.
What? You shouldn't have!
Really? I will take it back then.
She brought it all this way here for me.
It is not polite to make her take it back.
Why are you wandering about like a stray cat?
Did you have dinner?
No.
Did you hear?
Another body was found at the Panho-ri bar.
Again?
Were the organs and liver taken out again?
We thought so too, but not this time.
They said the body was full of knife wounds.
According to the police, the body had 12 deep knife wounds.
What is going on here?
Where is that body?
Who are you to talk so impolitely?
I asked you, where is that body?
It is probably at the big university hospital in Panho-ri.
The world is sure to end soon.
Youngsters these days have no respect for the elders now.
You don't even know.
DAEHAN MEDICAL CENTER
Gungtan…
Do you have a schedule today?
School today…
Let's go! There is an important appointment today.
-Where to? -It's a secret.
Wait.
-Let me just get my clothes. -Hurry up.
Okay.
You came.
-Good job today. -Thank you.
HOPE ORPHANAGE
Okay, look over here now.
Wrap your arms around his shoulders.
Sweetly.
Chan-hyeok, look over there.
Perfect.
Smile now.
Smile widely!
These photos will be shown to your adoptive parents.
Just like that, smile a bit.
Mi-ho.
This place…
Yes, it is the orphanage you stayed at.
Is Johan's older brother in Korea?
I think so.
Mister, you're so smart.
You should use our company's resources.
Our company's legal team is great.
Finding a person should be a piece of cake for them.
Contact them immediately to find the elder nephew.
Yes, of course.
-Shall we get going? -Yes, come inside.
Let's go.
HOPE ORPHANAGE
Chan-hyeok!
Chan-hyeok, what are you doing here?
Let's go now. Everyone is waiting.
Chan-hyeok, we now have a mom and a dad too!
-Really? -Yes.
Let's go.
Greet them now.
Johan. Are you okay?
It seems the facility was opened without proper authorization.
The facility closed down after Chan-hee and Chan-hyeok got adopted.
So where is Kang Chan-hee now?
He is not too far from here.
-My brother is nearby? -Yes.
It is a place called Bongyong-ho.
Good job.
Mi-ho.
I'm not sure how to show my gratitude for this…
Did you decide what to say once you meet your brother?
To my brother…
I wanted to apologize.
I often did not listen to my brother.
Johan, your brother will not remember you that way.
After I see you return to the villa,
I will go see my brother on my own.
Sure, let's do that.
Shall we go now?
-I said I will drop you off there. -Your safety is more important.
Then take this car and go.
I don't have a license.
Oh…
-Then I will call a cab for you-- -Mi-ho, it's fine.
-I'll be fine on my own. -Johan, wait!
Are you really fine on your own?
It's right for me to go see him on my own.
I'll be back.
-Be careful and be safe! -Okay, you too.
-Be safe! -Go inside now, bye!
Hello, Su-jin!
Mi-ho!
I forgot to give this to you yesterday.
I handmade a corsage for you for the wedding as well.
Wow, really?
And I even made a carrot cake for you.
I will bring it over to you.
Really? You don't have to come all this way.
We were very grateful for your wedding present.
We thought we had to do something for you.
Seung-joon looks like he is making something for you too.
I can't believe you guys.
I will just go to you instead.
No, wait.
Honey, you are fine with going, right?
He said he will go.
I still have some grading left to do.
I know you will miss me.
I can't believe I have friends like you.
I guess Won Mi-ho's life isn't too bad after all.
Well, I have a friend who is extremely wealthy and powerful.
I guess I didn't live my life too bad either.
Of course it's not if I'm in your life.
-I'm sorry for making you go alone. -It's fine.
I will be back real soon.
Then I won't close and will wait for you at the cafe.
Let me open the door for you.
Thank you.
-Hey, Su-jin. -Did you arrive yet?
Yes.
I followed the GPS,
but the map connection got cut off here.
From here on, I will just follow Mi-ho's directions
and hopefully it will come up.
Okay, come back quickly.
Okay.
Hello.
Do you know where Bongyong-ho is?
Bongyong-ho… should be around there.
Gungtan…
Okay, I will go out first so he doesn't have to wait.
Van.
Seung-joon…
Seung-joon!
Mister! Van! How can this be?
Why did this happen?
Mister… Van!
What should we do?
Excuse me.
Hello?
Excuse me.
Hello?
Who are you?
Who did you come to meet?
Do you know…
A Kang Chan-hee?
Chan-hyeok…
Are you…
Chan-hyeok?
It's been a while, my brother.
Gungtan…
