Magistrate.
I must really be going crazy.
-=Episode 3=-
You want me to give this to the son of Lord Choe?
Yes. Give it to him.
Okay. Okay. I'll send it.
I know this is none of my business, but...
how long do you plan to stay here playing magistrate?
I told you it won't be for long.
Move.
Where are you going now?
I'm not sure why, but isn't your face getting more wrinkled?
Are you asking because you don't know?
It's all those ghosts running around down there that interfere with my energy.
If you're dead, go to the Underworld. If you're alive, stay in the human world.
I don't understand, what's so hard about that?
You should be more flexible.
Sometimes people have special circumstances.
That's what caused this mess in the first place.
Never mind the ghosts, what are we going to do about the lost souls?
It's been 400 years! 400 years!
About that... I'm still really sorry.
You said you'd go down and do something about it.
Why haven't you taken care of it yet?
Do you know why you're so slow to mature, but so quick to age?
Q-Q-quick to age?
It's because you're too impatient.
Just wait and see.
If you don't do something about it soon,
this time I really will settle it my way.
Got it?
I got it. I know.
It's so noisy.
~ Black moon, white night, camellia flower ~
~ A thistle, a cat, the sound of bamboo ~
~ Rain showers, rainbow. I look around but cannot see you ~
I can't see.
What's taking so long?
It usually takes some time for a woman to get ready.
How is it? Does it look good?
I can't even see your shadow, so I can't tell.
How is it?
What do you mean, "How is it?"
You just went from being a ghost with messy hair
to a ghost with a nice hair band.
Anyway, you just quietly wait here.
When it's time, come to that place where we met yesterday.
Where are you going?
Stay here and then we can go together.
Forget it. I'm a very busy person.
Well, just do what I told you.
Hey! Wait, take her with you!
I don't want her to stay here, either!
He was fine before. What's wrong with him now?
Someone came from the City Hall?
Yes.
Since you weren't here, he told me to give this to you.
It's a letter from that new magistrate.
New magistrate?
There's a new magistrate?
Yes. Apparently he was just quietly appointed.
What's the matter?
It seems the new magistrate... wants to see me.
It's so pretty.
I pray to you. I pray to you.
Why give new clothes to a ghost?
I pray to you.
Gods of Heaven and Earth, please don't send me a ghost like her.
I beg you to send me the spirit of a great general.
Are you there?
Keep going. I will say a prayer with you.
No thanks. Can't you just leave?
I'm doing something very important right now.
I'll get my clothes dirty.
He told me just to wait here until it's time to go.
If you're finished changing, then can't you just leave?
Do you really not have a conscience?
It's not enough that you turn a good person into a thief,
I even have to prepare clothes and makeup for you.
Why are you doing this to me?
About that... I'm very sorry.
Since that day, I've only been eating calming medicine.
I'm just starting to be able to eat food again.
Why do you keep torturing me?
Were we enemies in a previous life?
Can't you please just leave?
Is she gone?
I pray to you. I pray to you.
I guess I'll just go there early and wait for him.
I can't get used to it.
It was better when she had messy hair and was hanging upside down.
But still...
the clothes really are like wings. They're like wings.
That's it, she needs me to be next to her.
Who knows what kind of trouble she'll cause?
Until she regains her memory,
even if I don't want to, we have to stick together.
Wait.
Couldn't I use visibility herbs?
Then I wouldn't need to bother the magistrate, since he's always so busy.
I'm probably going to the Underworld after the meeting, anyway.
I'm looking for visibility herbs. Visibility herbs!
And dog poop can't be used as medicine.
What is it?
What do you want?
Grab her.
Don't touch me.
I told you she was tough.
Hey. Hurry, grab her!
Aren't you going to catch her?
Let go! Let go of me!
Look at you now.
Don't step on my clothes!
Hey. What are you doing to my clothes?
Do you all want to die?
Let go!
Because of you, food was taken right out of my mouth.
I am also unable to swallow my anger.
What kind of dog food are you whining about?
So? What am I supposed to do?
Until my anger fades, you're just going to have to get a beating.
What?
Aigoo. Does it really take all of you?
He needs all of you to help?
Grab her!
I told you not to step on my clothes!
Aigoo. My nose. Really.
This girl, the size of a mouse's nose, is really getting to be too much.
What is this?
You really seem to be working hard.
Who are all these guys?
Hey. How do you live your life every day,
with people like this constantly bothering you?
Honestly.
Hey. What happened to your clothes?
Do you know how expensive those were?
Boss, isn't that a human?
You may think you're someone special, but this has nothing to do with you.
Just leave her here and go.
It has nothing to do with me? Do you know what I had to go through for these clothes?
These bastards.
This won't do. You guys... should I throw these? Would you like to taste some red beans?
Otherwise, should I just throw them to make you leave?
What's this?
Hey, human. Quit butting in. Just shut up and get lost.
I told you that it is my concern.
Are you all right?
Is-Is he really a human?
Who the heck are you?
I'm a busy guy, so let's get this over with.
You guys have messed with the wrong person.
You guys have attacked a human, right? Now the Reapers are going to come.
The ghost chasers?
Get him!
It's the Reapers!
What?
Oh, so you won't go looking like that?
What? Do you want to go somewhere and wash your face first?
Forget it! He can't see me anyway.
Then what was all that you said about a woman's heart before?
Hey. Let's go together!
Ah, that girl.
What's this?
Young master! Young master!
We should go back. Isn't it past the meeting time?
It doesn't look like he's going to come.
Is this any way for a person like that to behave?
Aigoo! Young master. Looks like the rain is getting harder.
Young master, let's go back.
Aigoo! What in the world am I doing? Seriously!
Following after a drenched ghost, what am I doing?
Come on. Hurry.
What? Did he already leave?
The magistrate told them to wait, but they just decided to leave.
Why doesn't anything in my life ever go right?
Yes, you have said it right.
Dying so young, who knows where, and then being a ghost with no memory.
I dress you in new clothes and they don't even last a day.
You wanted to see your fiance once before you left, but it looks like that's not going to happen.
It probably feels so unfair that you can't bear to leave here this way, right?
What exactly did I do wrong?
You mean old fogey! You mean old fogey!
It sounds like someone's looking for you.
She said "old fogey", so obviously she didn't mean me.
What exactly have I done wrong?
Why do you have to do this to me?
My Lord! My Lord!
My Lord Magistrate!
What? What's wrong?
Did something happen?
What is it? Who are you?
What happened?
Excellency! Excellency!
Excellency!
Young master! Young master!
There!
Just see if I come back,
even in 1000 or 10,000 years.
Dol Soe! Dol Soe!
Young master!
Where have you been?
Where are you going? Has something happened?
It seems something did happen.
Aigoo. My Lord Magistrate, you have some work to do.
What is it?
They said that a corpse has emerged out of the ground.
What?
I heard it's a young lady.
What?
Move! Move! Everybody move!
This definitely is Magistrate Lee's daughter who went missing 3 years ago.
The housekeeper has identified her.
It's already been 3 years,
but the body hasn't decayed at all. Her body still looks the same.
I know. Is this some kind of ghost they found?
Agassi! (young lady)
Agassi! Agassi!
Oh dear god! Why?
Why would such a thing happen? Agassi!
She doesn't have the hairpin.
It looks like she was murdered.
Sometimes I get a sharp pain here like I've been stabbed.
Do you think I was stabbed to death?
Don't look... Don't.
Agassi.
How can we send you off like this?
Come on, let's go.
Agassi! Agassi!
Agassi! Agassi! Agassi!
I... I... Why?
Why... am I...?
Young master!
Young master, you've come all the way here.
Isn't that Lord Choe's son?
What is he doing here?
He was engaged to that poor girl.
Oh, that's right. That's right.
Why... like that? Why?
Why do I have to be lying there like that?
Why did I have to die?
No way.
Let go!
You wench!
It definitely is that young lady.
How could something like this happen?
So all those rumors about her were untrue.
It must be very hard for you, so you shouldn't look anymore.
We will take care of...
We will take the body.
What? But... in this kind of situation, we need to figure out...
It is His Excellency's order.
Yes. Yes. Of course, but...
She's just like your family.
You hold the head.
You take the legs.
Don't lay a hand on her!
Are you out of your mind?
It's obvious this is a murder case.
But you just plan to hand her over to someone who isn't even in her family?
No. It's not like that. This is...
He was once this young lady's fiance.
Never mind.
Take her body to the office.
What?
That... Why are you telling me?
See here. Who do you think you are to keep butting in here?
Me?
I'm the magistrate.
You must be very careful.
Make sure you don't drop her.
Quickly. Let's go.
Earlier...
Something came up, so I was late.
What did you want to see me about?
Nothing.
I just wanted to ask you about something.
But I guess it doesn't matter now.
If you don't want to tell me, I guess I won't ask anymore.
Yes. Well then...
But...
on this matter, it will be very difficult for me to go along with you.
It was my father's order.
I'm sure he would understand,
considering these circumstances.
It's very obvious she was being framed.
Wouldn't it also be important to your family to clear her name?
Finding out the truth is not important.
What is important
is that this not become fodder for gossip all over again.
Because of these unfortunate events,
my family has suffered embarrassment.
Therefore, my father wishes to quickly resolve this matter.
Young Lord.
Although I'm sure you felt resentment as you thought your fiance had run away,
as you can see, those rumors were not true.
I was never resentful.
To be honest, I hardly knew her.
Since we became engaged, I only saw her once briefly.
But now I can't even remember what she looked like.
I'm sure you know,
you must have some feelings before you can feel anger or resentment.
So however you want to handle this, it doesn't matter to me.
However, my father will probably not just sit by and watch.
Well then.
I'm not really sure we should just leave.
Lord Choe will surely be furious.
Since he just fell into that position,
this new magistrate must not know his place, right?
Agassi,
I'm sorry I have to send you off like this.
I hope... you will go to a better place.
That's why I told you not to look.
Where are you and what are you doing?
For now, I have placed her body inside her room.
What should we do next?
I don't know, either.
What?
Then why did we bring her here?
Do you actually plan on being the magistrate?
I don't know.
I'll have to ask once more.
Ask who?
Ask Lord Choe?
That's a good idea.
You should have done that in the beginning.
What does that person want?
To find the murderer,
or recover her honor,
or else...
just forget the past
and bury it all?
It goes without saying that it's the third one.
I know Lord Choe a little bit...
He doesn't even let me finish! If he weren't Lord Gim's son, I would just...
What did you say?
So this is what you look like.
That's what your eyes look like, and your nose.
And your mouth.
You were pretty.
But why were you in such a cold, dirty place?
Why were you just lying there like a stupid victim?
What happened?
Who did this to you?
Even if I don't know, at least you should know.
You don't know?
Why don't you know, idiot?
Why don't you know?
You just wait.
I'll find out for you.
Old fogey!
I don't know how to pray,
but listen to me anyway.
You were looking down from up there,
so you must have seen everything.
What happened to her?
Just tell me what you saw.
Please tell me.
King of the Heavens.
For every bad thing I did up until now, I was wrong.
I'm sorry for cursing at you, too.
If you will just tell me,
I won't cause any more trouble,
and I'll be good and go on to the next life.
Okay?
So you're not going to tell me, are you?
You old fogey!
Really, really...
You stay right there and don't move.
When that one comes, she's all mine,
and with especially severe punishment.
Whatever you think it is,
it will be hundreds of times worse.
She promised that if I will tell her,
she would come quietly.
How can you call yourself the Jade Emperor?
You would make a deal with a pitiful spirit?
It wasn't a deal, it was a prayer!
For those who offer their prayers in earnest,
I sometimes answer them.
You always do something like this.
That's why the order of things has become confused.
And when things get messed up, it's always me who has to clean it up.
That's why everyone thinks I'm the bad god,
while you get to be the good god.
Where else in this world are things so unfair?
Do you really think about those things?
Besides...
How was that a prayer? It was more like a threat.
How dare a pitiful spirit threaten a god?
So that's what you've been thinking about.
Really.
I was just saying... just saying.
Where on earth did you go?
Haba shali susu yilisu habayi.
Oh mali hong dong yi gula...
galagusa chong chi sala.
I just can't remember this.
I pray to you. I pray to you.
Gods of Heaven and Earth, I pray to you.
Please hear my prayers.
Please send a great general down to me.
Please reveal him to me.
I pray to you. I pray to you.
Gods of Heaven and Earth, I pray to you.
You're coming.
Suri Suri Mak Suri
Sisuli sub bah!
General, I am here.
General?
Look here, Shaman.
Shaman, I need your help with something.
What evil did I do in my past life?
Why here? People say never to go inside here.
What is this place?
This here...
is like a gate to the Underworld.
This is the only place
where we can do what you're asking.
But... if I help you again this time,
do you really promise not to come back?
All right.
But, but why are you suddenly speaking to me casually?
It's blocked, isn't it?
Mother god and grandmother god.
Move away.
Wh-wh-what kind
of tough bastard are you trying to catch
in a place like this?
It's probably better for your body and mind if you don't know.
This time, if things go wrong,
both of us are dead.
I'm alive so I will just die and end up as a ghost,
but since you're already a ghost, you might just disappear.
I'm already dead anyway, so what does that matter?
Seriously!
You will become someone who never even existed.
That's what I'm telling you.
You will be someone who never existed.
There's a big difference between that and someone who did exist but then disappeared.
Then what's the difference?
Memories.
Well, wouldn't there be memories?
If you never existed, how can anyone love you and miss you?
Don't touch that!
What?
Keep watch?
Right.
I need to go out for a while.
Going out is one thing,
but why do I have to guard a body?
It's just a precaution.
In case of what?
Until I come back,
you just stay right here and keep watch.
No matter what happens,
I want you to guard it thinking, "this is mine."
I don't want to.
Why should I watch over someone I never even knew?
Why should I?
Dol Soe,
that young lady is now in danger.
Shouldn't helping people who are in danger
be the first priority of Magistrate Dol Soe?
You are the magistrate, young master.
Tonight...
you are the magistrate.
What?
If you keep gazing wistfully at the moon,
do you expect a rabbit to drop from the sky in front of you?
For someone who can't even retrieve a corpse,
what are you expecting?
You seem to be wearing this form well.
But appearances don't always mean everything is going smoothly.
People can always tell the difference between real and fake.
It's not right to put a horsehair string on a silk hat.
If any trouble comes to our house because of you,
I will definitely not let you off then.
Should I make it more clear for you?
How someone who is real does this work,
I will only explain it one more time.
Do you really know what you're doing?
I've never tried it before, but I think it will be fine as long as I follow the book.
Are you sure?
Really, don't talk to me. You're going to confuse me.
Did you do it right?
Don't worry. I've studied all about spiritual powers in books, so I'm well aware of the theory.
But...
what are you trying to catch? Are you really not going to tell me?
What is this?
What happened all of a sudden?
Just bear it for a moment. It will go away very soon.
- What did you do to me? - If I do this much, you will come, right?
It all went away, right?
I'm sorry.
The last time. Endure...
I... am going to the Underworld.
Huh? Really?
For everything that you've done, thank you.
Thanks to you, Shaman, it has been bearable for me.
I didn't do anything.
But, if you go now, does that mean I'll never see you again?
Yes.
Have you come?
Are you ready to go back?
You will finally be able to rest easy.
In return,
let me see the Jade Emperor.
Arang, the one you will meet is King Yama.
You will have to be judged for your sins during this time.
Look here, Grim Reaper.
She called a Grim Reaper? This crazy ghost!
If you want to take me away, just let me see the Jade Emperor.
Arang,
you can't see the Jade Emperor.
No, I have to see that old fogey.
Old fogey?
When she says "old fogey", I'm supposed to push...
I have something to ask that "old fogey"!
I already said "old fogey!" What are you doing?
There's a big problem!
No way.
I didn't know anything about this!
I never even dreamed you would come!
Please forgive me.
What are you trying to do?
Let me see the Jade Emperor!
Arang!
Do you have any idea what a terrible thing you're doing?
You will also be sucked into this!
That's fine,
because I don't care!
But you're not the same.
You're an important grim reaper with lots of work left to do, and you're a favorite of that old fogey.
Arang!
Let me see the Jade Emperor.
I told you there was trouble.
And I already said, "No way."
Why do you have to go this far?
Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand.
Just let me meet him. Please.
It's all over.
I feel so much better.
How long has it been since the last time you lost?
Aigoo!
Please. Let me see the Jade Emperor.
I don't make deals with ghosts.
One move. Just let me take back one move.
One move.
What? Wait a minute. What did I just hear?
It's such a waste. Such a waste!
Just one move.
Then what will you do for me?
I agree to your request.
Shaman!
Is it finished?
This person does what he says.
Don't ever do... anything like this again.
Do you think a time will ever come when we are this close again?
Amnesia.
Where have you gone?
~ As each day passes ~
~ You begin to fade ~
~ But my foolish heart still misses you ~
-=Next Episode Preview=-
This is the river to the Underworld.
Once you cross it, you can never come back.
Will you miss the world of the living?
I didn't get to tell him goodbye.
Amnesia, didn't she come here?
She went to the Underworld.
If you haven't found the girl by tomorrow,
what did he say he'll do?
Do you really think your plan will succeed?
It's worth giving it a try, isn't it.
That child definitely belongs to Hell.
Did you lie to me?
I... no, here... Is there anything we can do?
Mu Yeong!
