…wicked and evil. I summon you, Grim Reaper of Hell…
-Vanquish all spirits… -Mom!
Mom.
-This isn't... -Mom.
what I wanted to do.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, Shaman.
I just wanted to survive.
It was so I could survive.
Open the door.
Open the door, you damned evil spirit!
Open up.
Open the door.
You damned evil spirit!
Open the door!
Are you a good person?
What?
Are you a good person?
Well…
I can't say.
I'm a bad person.
What?
The evil spirit's gone.
We must find him and get rid of him.
You can't go.
What?
You're not going.
Who knows what the evil spirit will do?
General Dongcheon was the last one.
He just claimed his hundredth life.
He has become an evil deity!
Let go. Let go of me.
-Let me go. -Yeomhwa.
-Do you have a plan? -Let go!
Do you know a way other than dying with Bong-su?
She wanted to save you!
My mom died while trying to save you!
You know,
I really hate you
with all my being.
But I'll protect you.
I'll protect you no matter what.
Please just hear me out!
Man-sik!
Where is Heaven and Earth Fairy?
-I don't know if this is right. -We have to find her.
Where is she right now?
What's this? Where am I?
Seong-A.
Where are we?
Is this a dream?
What is it? Am I so pretty that it feels like a dream?
Now that you're up, let's go on our date.
Stop it.
One, two, three.
You're taking selfies, aren't you?
There.
Done.
Great. Thanks.
-You made a wish? -Yeah.
Let's go.
So…
Where did Bong-su go?
I can't sense his presence anymore.
He's gone.
He's gone?
Yeah.
Where to? How?
Shush.
Talk about him, and he'll come back.
Flower Master.
Man-sik, I know you're there.
Hong Man-sik!
You don't need to untie me.
Just hear me out! Man-sik!
Hong Man-sik!
Ma'am!
MUST LIVE
Why do you keep calling me?
Man-sik.
You don't know.
Heaven and Earth Fairy doesn't either.
What do you mean?
Evil deities don't cause calamities.
They're calamities themselves,
so they don't bring disasters.
If an evil deity resides in you,
things start to get plagued.
Seong-A!
First, plants start to wither.
Then, animals perish.
In the end, people die.
You must stop Heaven and Earth Fairy.
She has no idea what she's doing right now.
No.
Yeomhwa.
She knows.
She knows everything.
Did you get one of everything from the vending machine?
Well,
I didn't know what you'd like, so I got one of each.
You don't know what I like?
I like you.
You are my first love.
-You're also my-- -And…
this is my first kiss.
I'll come back before the graduation ceremony.
It's time to go now,
Bong-su.
Mother.
I'm surrounded by darkness, and I can't see a thing.
How can I tell if I'm walking along the right path?
By leading the way.
You don't know what's awaiting, so you walk in the front.
Will that
help me take the right path?
You can then protect
the ones behind you.
Mother.
I'll take the right path.
I won't go astray.
I promise to protect them.
Bong-su.
Follow me from behind from now on.
Why? I want to walk next to you.
Stay behind and keep watch.
Make sure I'm walking straight.
Okay, sure.
I'll come back before the graduation ceremony.
Seong-A.
Seong-A!
Seong-A…
Seong-A.
Seong-A!
Park Seong-A!
Seong-A!
Park Seong-A.
Park Seong-A...
I can't believe I'm in my last year.
Seong-A left, and we became 12th graders.
What's going on? Hey, Jin-ung.
You're actually dating?
It's seasoned perfectly.
We were in different classes, but we ate lunch together.
Come on out!
-Who's this? -Just get out.
-What? -What's this?
Get out already.
What are you even doing?
Do you have a death wish?
-Here. -Quit smoking.
Okay?
-I smiled a lot over small things. -Cigarettes, you know…
And Gyeon-U.
Come here.
I'm proud of you. Well done.
Well done, Gyeon-U.
Hey.
What?
You're the best.
Bae Gyeon-U was doing well.
A bit too well.
He's more like a machine.
Goodbye.
Thank you.
I found that so weird that I quietly followed him a few times.
GENERAL WARD B
Hui-na.
Congratulations on going home.
Do you still hate me?
Yeah.
I think I will forever.
You know
the person responsible for the fire in the dorm
was actually me.
It's too late to come clean now, and I didn't pay for what I did.
I guess I'll suffer from guilt for the rest of my life.
How was that possible?
Why didn't you tell anyone it was me?
You wouldn't have done that
if it hadn't been for me.
You're still a fool.
And I'm still a coward.
You think so?
But…
I think it's about time
we both found happiness.
I really want you
to be happy now.
Why?
Because I'm your first-ever friend?
Yeah.
And…
I met and made another friend.
She taught me…
it's okay
to be happy.
So what?
Are you happy now?
Give me your phone.
Of all the bad things I did to you,
I think this was the worst.
Not letting you save my number under my name.
CHOI HUI-NA
Don't take my calls anymore.
That's the first thing you should do to be happy.
Hey.
Archery.
Will you go back into it?
Okay.
See you at future competitions.
I wouldn't have cared one bit
even if Gyeon-U had met Seong-A alone in secret.
That's how much I missed her.
-You bought some. -Do you need flowers?
We bought ours already.
That concludes the 76th graduation ceremony
of Hwamok High School.
One, two, three.
Dad, take it in portrait mode, not landscape mode.
Come here. Let's take one together.
-We graduated! -We graduated!
And...
We'd longed for the graduation day to come.
One, two, three.
Let's take one more.
"I want to attend my high school graduation ceremony
and college entrance ceremony."
"I want to take a photo with a flower bouquet."
This was Seong-A's wish.
Stand up. Let's take a photo.
Take it with this.
In landscape mode.
One, two, three.
Wait.
Hold this up a bit higher.
About here. She's a bit taller than that.
-No, this is the right height. -It's not.
One, two--
You're just clueless. She's taller than this. Hold it up.
She's not this tall. Your memory must be…
She's this tall.
Down here. This is about it.
This is too low.
I think it should be a little higher.
I'll take the photo for you.
I don't know. It's somewhere here.
She's taking the photo.
Give me that.
On three, okay?
One.
Two.
Three.
Seong-A. Wait.
I'll come to you now.
Long time no see.
It seems I still scare you.
The deities have left.
"The deities
have left?"
A shrine ends up like this without its owner.
Items that are no longer used soon become worn down
and break.
Fairy God…
left her shaman completely.
That means…
the shaman is dead.
No.
Seong-A isn't dead.
You're right.
She isn't dead.
That's why I find it odd.
What are you trying to say?
We were once connected through the Unify Spell.
So when she dies,
you and I are bound to know.
She'll appear in our dreams all in white
to say a final goodbye.
But something's off.
Her patron deity is gone,
but she isn't dead.
The evil spirit that's stuck to her…
must be pulling something sly.
How can we find Seong-A--
We must find her as soon as possible…
before she starts harming people.
She'll do what?
Seong-A will harm people?
She's not like you!
I wasn't like that from the start, either.
This won't work.
I should find something else.
Hey, kid.
Handsome, you idiot!
You're asking for divine punishment!
Darn it.
It feels like I'm suffering one anyway.
Okay, stop. I get it, fine.
Point taken.
Wrap one around the arrow before you shoot.
You might be able to get ghosts.
Thank you. I'll use these to find Seong-A.
Whatever. Don't say another word. Just go.
Okay. I'll bring Seong-A with me next time.
Just go.
He came as you said, and I did as you asked.
I'll pay for the amulets.
If he comes back,
give him more.
It's not about the money. Is this even right?
Won't Handsome end up in danger too?
I didn't put him up to this.
This is all him. You saw yourself too.
He has to do something, anything.
Okay. I'll call you back.
May I ask
what you're doing?
Sure.
We're family.
Why keep secrets?
The more evil you do, the stronger the evil deity becomes.
I've spent more than a year looking for Heaven and Earth Fairy,
and I couldn't find a trace of her.
The moment I thought I'd found her, she did something evil and got away.
Her acts of evil…
drove the Fairy God away from her.
But we still have that boy.
The boy the evil spirit resided in.
The spirit's energy still lingers in him.
Despite the evil spirit's departure
and his lack of shamanic powers,
he can still see and hear ghosts.
And…
communicate with them.
Perhaps…
we may still have a shot at finding Heaven and Earth Fairy
by using that unbreakable tie.
Gyeon-U would definitely help.
You could tell him the truth and ask for his help.
Why go to all this trouble?
I'll kill her when I find her.
Would he still cooperate?
What?
To exorcise the evil deity,
Heaven and Earth Fairy
has to die.
Do you know this shaman?
Looks like you do.
So…
how about you tell me everything you know?
I must find ghosts without faces
that want to serve the evil deity?
Faceless Ghosts?
You need to be rough with them.
They literally have no faces.
So
the one who gives them a face becomes their master.
I got you a new face.
Now I'm your master.
Where is this girl?
MAP OF THE REPUBLIC OF KOREA
YEONCHEON-GUN, CHEORWON-GUN
MET FLOWER MASTER, 30 AMULETS
5 FACELESS GHOSTS, SOLDIER GHOST…
INJE-GUN, NONE
NONE IN INJE DON'T GIVE UP, I'LL SAVE HER THIS TIME
Gyeon-U, you little punk.
Listen, you.
Don't you have anything to say to me?
I'm sorry.
Tell me.
How come you haven't come to train in the past two months?
You think you're all that because you keep winning gold?
And why do you keep getting caught
by the police for shooting arrows in the mountains?
In the middle of the night too.
Come on.
This is it.
Talk to me.
Tell me.
I need to know what's going on to cover for you.
Come on, Gyeon-U.
If you keep this up, the Archery Association will penalize you.
Coach.
Yes.
Can you forget a girl who left
after promising to return no matter what?
The first kiss
can't and shouldn't be a goodbye, right?
So how could she…
not even appear in my dreams?
I can see the world she'd see.
I don't get
just how…
she kept a smile on her face while seeing all this daily.
Had I known,
I wouldn't have told her I didn't like her forcing herself to smile.
To be honest, her smile was lovely.
I get it.
All that's happened is that a girl left you,
but the whole world has turned gray, hasn't it?
Right?
That's love for you.
Love.
That's what love does to you.
I'm your master now.
Repeat exactly what you told that boy,
word for word.
I pray you will find your way to paradise
and be reborn as a person in this world.
Three, two, one.
Three, two...
one.
You all
must move on to a better place.
Why waste time and energy to console a whopping 100 souls…
when you can die and be done with it after one entreaty to the King of Hell?
Hey.
Stay out of my way.
Or I'll kill you.
You're basically a ghost now.
Let's go.
Hey.
Let me go. Let go of me!
Would you let go if you were me?
I don't want to hurt you. Let go.
Enough with the show.
Come with me quietly.
Go! Go on, Seong-A!
No!
Stop! No!
What do you think you're doing? How dare you?
I'm risking an expulsion from the Archery Association.
That was our last chance to catch her.
Do you even realize what you unleashed into the world?
If you hadn't tried to turn Bong-su into an evil deity,
-I wouldn't have had to-- -That's why I'm trying to correct it all!
Seong-A…
Seong-A wouldn't have resorted
to such harsh ways.
She would've found a way…
that wouldn't be so hurtful.
So…
you should find another way, just like she would.
I feel so sorry for you.
An exorcism is now the only way to…
No.
Even that's not an option now
since we've lost all means to catch her.
Gyeon-U.
If she comes to see you,
it will be to kill you.
By any chance,
if you run into her, run away.
Run away and call me.
That's the only way you'll live.
As for the interview…
2 YEARS LATER
…we'll only ask the questions we sent you earlier.
So there's no need to be nervous.
Hello, I'm Bae Gyeon-U.
BAE GYEON-U RECURVE, JANGAN CITY HALL
Say a bit more.
So I shoot with a recurve bow.
I'm happy.
I'm over the moon.
He's terrible at interviews, isn't he?
Dude, lower that hand. Come on.
Hand down.
INTRODUCE YOURSELF
That's it.
Okay, great.
Is winning gold at the Olympics your dream, then?
WHAT'S YOUR DREAM?
Winning the gold medal at the Olympic Games is my goal.
My dream is something else.
My dream
is to see my first love again.
This interview has become all sweet and romantic all of a sudden.
If you had to choose between winning gold and your first love,
what would you choose?
My first love.
A video message?
I miss you…
Seong-A.
Punk.
No holding back, huh?
-Stop right there! -Wait, Ji-ho.
-Come on. -Stop it. What are you doing?
I'm sorry, Ji-ho.
I'm so sorry. I mean that.
11TH HANRAGI ARCHERY COMPETITION
My goodness. Will you knock first?
What are you doing here?
This is my home.
You should've called to say you'd come.
This is my place, but I should call you before coming here?
Did you come here planning to move in?
Yeah. You don't mind, do you?
I do mind.
Oh, right.
Will you have dinner at home?
I'm not sure.
Come home in time for dinner. I'll cook something nice.
Fix this if you don't have anything to do.
See you. Rest up.
See you later.
Yes, ma'am.
She passed away?
Okay.
I'll come over.
The elder shaman prayed for you both
until the day she passed.
The deities
will protect both you and Seong-A.
Consider yourself
as fragile as glass and be careful for the time being.
Can you do that?
I'll try.
Rather than leaving it all alone in Lady Fairy's room,
I thought it would be better to have you keep it.
Okay. I'll take good care of it.
I'm sure she's fine.
She must be, right?
Take all the time you need.
Yes, ma'am.
PARK SEONG-A HWAMOK HIGH SCHOOL
What a shame.
If this were the Joseon Period,
the king would build a monument to praise your devotion.
Would it be something else since you're a man?
You haven't changed one bit. That's good to see.
-Are you being sarcastic? -You started it.
Did you have any dreams?
No.
There was a slight pause. That's suspicious.
You said if I see her in my dreams that would mean she's dead.
That's the best-case scenario.
Then we can just collect her body.
Glare at me all you want,
but your ally now is me, not her.
If she appears in a dream, ask where she is.
We must collect her body and cleanse the area.
If you see her in real life, run away and don't look back.
And call me.
What if I don't want to call you?
Gyeon-U.
You've never called me for your own good anyway.
Don't call if you don't want to.
I'm sure you'll love joining your grandmother sooner.
I'm back.
That was quick. I won't be long.
I won't eat.
But it's spicy stir-fried pork.
Did you have
any dreams?
If she appears in a dream,
ask where she is.
Seong-A's dream.
A dream that has Seong-A in it.
There's something I didn't tell Yeomhwa earlier.
I've been having
this dream.
I'm here again.
A 12th-grade classroom without a class number.
CLASS MOTTO LET'S GET INTO A FOUR-YEAR COLLEGE
A weird class motto.
Ji-ho and I are in the same class.
We were in different classes in 12th grade, though.
PARK SEONG-A
Seong-A.
Are you doing okay?
So this is
what the classroom looks like from your seat.
That's a nice drawing.
Gyeon-U.
Hey, Gyeon-U. Wake up.
Are you a newborn? You dozed off already?
Get up. It's time for dinner.
Have you ever experienced
having a dream
that doesn't feel like yours?
As if…
you were in someone else's dream.
My dear friend has reached new heights of nonsense.
I think
I end up in Seong-A's dream sometimes.
I have dreams of Seong-A
that doesn't have her in it.
For goodness' sake.
What the heck?
Why do you keep hiding? Just go meet him.
What if I do and end up hurting him?
We're in a dream. What harm could you possibly do?
A dream's a dream because you can do whatever you want in it.
And if anyone were to harm him, it would be me, not you.
We never know.
Gyeon-U and Ji-ho seem to be living together, right?
They must still be close.
That's great.
Who cares if they're close or not?
Is it because Gyeon-U sat here?
The seat's warm.
By the way,
why did he have to sit in your chair?
What a weirdo.
Bong-su.
This is good enough for me.
Seeing him from time to time like this is more than enough.
Did you draw that?
That's pretty good.
You were drawing it until a short while ago.
That's right.
I should finish it.
How do you know if it's a dream about her if she's not in it?
I just do.
I can
just tell.
That drawing
of the seaside seemed familiar.
We were just talking about your dream. What do you mean, seaside?
I've seen that seaside…
That seaside…
FLOWER MASTER'S SHRINE
You want me
to curse him?
I may be great at making effective amulets, but I can't do this.
I can't. I won't.
This is Bae Gyeon-U.
Young and handsome, Heaven and Earth Fairy's first love.
Exactly.
I hate his guts.
Do it yourself if you must. You're powerful.
I'm too powerful.
If I curse him, he'll die.
Anyway, where's Heaven and Earth Fairy? Why are you out here?
If I tell you, will you curse him for me?
I shouldn't even bother.
Darn it. I knew you wouldn't help.
I'm off.
Already?
It's bad for you if I stay too long. Do you want to die an early death?
You've become much cruder since we last met.
How's finding your name going?
Darn you. I'd have crossed over if I'd found it
instead of coming to see you.
You're so annoying.
Whatever. I'm getting out of here.
Looking at your ugly mug disgusts me every moment.
You're crazy. It's not like I asked you to come.
Hello? Are you in, Flower Master?
Speak of the devil.
Are you in?
Sure, hang on!
Wait a minute!
Hey, you. Come here.
-Get in here. -No, wait.
Won't I die in here? Don't you know of Crown Prince Sado?
I don't know. Shut up and get inside.
-Hurry. -Damn it.
Hang on!
Oh, dear.
Come on in!
Save yourself energy.
We need the deity to come back.
Until then,
the shrine will only become eerier, no matter how hard you clean it.
I know that.
But it bothers me
to just let it be.
You put in so much effort and work.
I hope the deity returns quickly.
It seems the elder shaman prayed for your little one
until the day she passed.
The old hag.
Did she think I'd thank her for it?
It seems you are feeling thankful, though.
What are those?
These are the items
belonging to people
the elder shaman prayed for until the end.
This is Lady Fairy's.
Maybe not.
She used it for the Human Amulet spell,
so maybe I should say it belongs to Gyeon-U.
If that's the case,
you should give it to Gyeon-U.
That way, we can reconnect
the ties that have been broken.
What?
Never mind. I was distracted for a second.
She said if Seong-A appears in my dream dressed in white,
it means she's dead.
I was also told
that because we were once bound by a strong spell,
I should see it in a dream if anything bad happened to her.
Of course. The dead would visit you in a dream.
Damn it, it's suffocating in here.
I might actually die.
But I'm positive
that Seong-A's fine.
That's what my gut tells me.
I know it sounds weird,
but it feels like she's close by.
Even now,
I feel like she's right next to me.
Really?
Oh, and whenever I have a dream,
I can sense Seong-A's presence.
Very strongly, too.
When the heck will he leave?
What was that sound?
Wait, what?
What noise? I didn't hear anything.
There's no one else in that dream,
and I don't see her.
But it feels like Seong-A is there.
-There's something in there. -In there?
There's nothing in there. Nothing at all.
This is what you heard.
-I think there is something. -No, hey. There's nothing.
-Oh, screw it. -There's something in…
You're a talker, aren't you?
Seong-A.
That rascal.
Hey!
Hey, wait up.
Dang it.
Hey!
Hey, you.
Stop running.
Darn it. I don't know anymore.
Damn, I can't move over.
"Damn"?
Seong-A…
Hey.
I'm obviously not her.
Her spirit vessel is cracking.
Shamanistic practice's all about equivalent exchange.
When one life withers,
another blooms.
Die in the shaman's place.
I'm begging you.
What do I have to do?
By the time you wake up,
it will all be over.
It's not fair that I'm the only one to die.
What makes you think you're the only one to die today?
Where is Yeomhwa?
I'll help you cross over without pain.
You shouldn't be around me.
Goodbye.
