-=Episode 2=-
This is the Human's alone time.
The Human sits there the whole night doing something.
Sometimes he sits in that same position all night.
Sometimes, he even falls asleep like that, too.
Then sometimes, he acts like an idiot.
And sometimes, he acts like a lunatic.
But lately...
Yes, editor.
The new drawings?
Yes, it is still... a bit...
It's me, Human!
Let's play.
Okay? Let's play!
Bok Gil! Please.
You're rejecting me?
When I'm feeling playful like this,
you should feel very grateful. Really.
You're ready to play?
Hey! Hey!
I guess not.
Bok Gil, you!
I'm already going out of my mind! Why would you do this to me?
Are you actually mad at me now?
Damn it!
What's the big deal?
You shouldn't leave in a huff.
What's good to play with?
-=♪3. Oh! My Muse =-
Are you sleeping?
Why are you sleeping?
Is this a dormitory?
From now on, I'll deduct lodging fees from your wages before I pay you.
I'm sorry.
You worked all night again but struck out? Fighting!
Worked? [also slang for picking up girls]
You must have gone to a nice place.
So you always strike out?
It wasn't that kind of work.
I feel so disappointed.
Say, how about you change to another team?
The kids' books team has that attractive Miss Gim.
Or you can change with sexy Miss Seong from business books. Okay?
I really like it here, Manager.
Right now, go find 100 Seoul University recommended books.
You have 10 minutes.
Otherwise, you're going to the kids' books team.
Here. Change. Got it?
Ready, go.
1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds... 5. 6. 7.
Okay. You have 10 seconds left.
10, 9, 8...
Are you doing this to waste time or to make money?
I'm raising the number of likes.
You're really not going back to school?
Oh, seriously! Go do this or go do that.
I just want to try taking photos.
My aunt called.
She said she can't stand it that you're being so lazy.
Even if she has to grab your hair, she's going to drag you back.
She said she's on her way to Seoul right now.
What? Why did you wait until now to tell me?
Hey. I said your mother is on her way.
If she catches me, I'm dead for sure.
I'll stay at my friend's studio for tonight. Bye!
Hey. Hey, Oh Na-U! Oh Na-U!
Sweetie, you're hungry, aren't you?
What's wrong? Aren't you feeling well?
What should I do?
=Please visit our bookstore again tomorrow.=
=Our store's closing time is 11:00=
=As the store is now closed, =
=please take your purchases to the registers.=
=Thank you.=
I still haven't started the new project.
I'm not sure when I'll have them ready to turn in.
Okay. Okay. That...
I'm sorry.
Yes. Yes. I will call you.
Okay.
Hyeon Jong Hyeon? So his name is Hyeon Jong Hyeon.
Excuse me!
Excuse me! There is still someone in here!
Excuse... Isn't anyone there?
I mean, why... Why are you here?
I thought you... would be coming out earlier.
Suddenly the lights went off.
What are you talking about?
Why did you come here?
Gil Yang is sick.
Then just take him to the hospital.
But I'm not really sure.
That's why I wanted to ask you to take a look.
I waited for you a long time.
The sign on the door says "Authorized Personnel Only." Didn't you see it?
It's because you were too slow coming out.
What in the world were you doing in here?
I need to look at some books,
so I deliberately stayed behind secretly.
What?
What are you going to do now?
The roll-down door outside is already closed.
If you go out now,
both of us will definitely end up in the police station.
Then we can't go out?
We can't go out.
We have to stay all night?
We have to stay all night.
That's cool.
Wow! This is awesome!
So you're an artist. What type?
Let's each mind our own business.
I also wanted to give this back to you.
But if you don't want it, forget it.
Your name is Hyeon Jong Hyeon. How old are you?
Give it to me.
Answer me and I'll give it to you.
What grade were you in for the 2002 World Cup?
6th grade.
You're the same age as me.
My name is Oh Na-U.
Oh, I see...
I see all those books there have nothing in common.
You must be looking for a new item, right?
Your speech has gotten short. (informal)
So has yours.
They say those closest to a problem can't see it clearly.
Isn't fixating on an idea like that?
I'm not fixating. I'm concentrating, okay?
You fixate on something difficult,
and concentrate on something you enjoy, don't you?
Just try drawing what is most dear to you.
Why rack your brain trying to overthink it?
You should go and play with that shopping cart.
What is most precious to me right now?
Have you thought of an answer?
If you're going to keep bugging me, would you just get lost?
Such a rude jerk.
Hurry and call Jong Hyeon to come!
Jong Hyeon's phone is turned off, so let's just go.
Is he deliberately avoiding me?
I almost threw up at how much effort I went to just for him at the planning meeting!
I know what good care you take of our Jong Hyeon.
You know?
Bullshit, what do you know?
I mean, do you know that guy still hasn't done the new project?
Is a project some kind of rice cake, that he can just spit it out?
Do you know why Jong Hyeon is ignoring me?
Last time I suggested we have dinner together,
he said he couldn't, that Bok Gil was waiting for him at home.
So I said, "Oh, I guess you have a girlfriend."
But it's a cat.
I must be a woman who's not even as good as a cat.
For Jong Hyeon,
Bok Gil's existence really is a miracle.
A few years ago, after a close friend of his passed away, he had even given up drawing.
For over a year, he was living like a zombie.
You don't know how scary he was.
But after he met Bok Gil, he started drawing again.
You could say Bok Gil saved Jong Hyeon's life.
So then do you...
like Bok Gil better, or like me better?
Well, if you suddenly ask me such a straightforward question, then...
What's this?
Hurry back.
Human.
Please hurry and come back.
Hey. You're about to drool on that book.
Hey! Hey!
Come on!
Successful escape!
Your cat is probably waiting for you.
How old is she?
About 10 years?
You don't even know her age?
I found her on the street.
Now that you mention it, I think it was on this date.
Today? Then that makes today her birthday.
Really?
It must have rained last night.
The ground is wet.
Rain?
But then, the forecast yesterday said there would be heavy rain.
They said there would even be thunder and lightning...
Hey, Hyeon Jong Hyeon!
You're so rude, you can't even say goodbye?
Hey!
Bok Gil!
No matter what I do, there's something I just can't forget.
Bok Gil! Are you okay?
I've been abandoned before.
I still couldn't accept that it was true.
Back then, I was so lonely and tired.
There wasn't anything that I could do.
That was when the Human found me.
We were both in a very similar place.
You must have been very scared, right?
You were bad.
I'm sorry.
I was wrong for getting angry and leaving you alone the whole night.
You really were bad.
Did you think about things in the past again?
Miss Bok Gil.
Today is the day we met.
Can't we just remember today not as a sad day, but as a happy one?
A happy day?
Then that makes today her birthday.
That's right. Your birthday!
Bok Gil, let's have a party.
A happy birthday party. Okay?
Happy birthday?
Happy birthday, Miss Bok Gil.
Hmph. That's the best you can do?
Surprise!
Bok Gil! Look. Bok Gil!
How is it? Do you like it?
Once more. Watch carefully.
That's pretty good.
Happy birthday, Bok Gil.
Happy birthday.
Seriously.
What is most precious to me right now?
Have you thought of an answer?
That's right. This is how you make a fresh start.
And Human...
don't ever forget this again.
I'm your muse. Okay?
What are you looking at?
Oh my. Hey.
Even a closeup.
At least you appreciate beauty.
Bok Gil!
Miss Bok Gil,
We haven't jumped in a long time, so how about it?
Here. Bok Gil!
Maybe if I were 1-year-old again.
Hey. Are you making it obvious how old you are?
If you keep this up, I'll call you "Grandma."
You always threaten to call me a grandma.
Yes! It's salmon!
I didn't think I was hungry.
It smells so good!
Enjoy your food.
Bok Gil,
today I'm going to visit a friend I haven't seen in awhile.
But I won't be out too late.
The Human is often very useful.
-=♪4. Let Me In =-
I see you.
When I was 17, I could look at you all day long.
Is your drawing finished?
All done.
Then I'm going to jump off.
It's dangerous.
One.
Two.
No! Don't do it!
Three!
Nya nya!
No matter, you always do what you want.
Are you mad?
No.
I like you.
Do you?
Do I what?
Why don't you tell me?
Later.
When? Just tell me now.
I want to hear it right now.
We'll be late to class! Let's go.
- Hurry! Tell me! - Let's go!
I'll do it after class.
- No. - After class. After class.
Let's go. Hurry, hurry.
Tell me! When will you tell me?
Hurry up. Just tell me now.
Tell me now!
Hi. Why aren't you here?
=Hyeon Jong Hyeon, this is the police.=
P-Police?
=I heard you were close with a classmate, Jeong Su In.=
Yes...
Su..Su In... what happened?
=Last night, she jumped out of a 13th floor window.=
=Were you also with her yesterday?=
=Did Jeong Su In say anything to you?=
=Hello?=
=Hyeon Jong Hyeon?=
=Student!=
I like you. Do you?
That time, why couldn't I just say it?
Just say, "I like you."
It's my fault for not holding onto you...
so I'm not able to send you away.
That rotten girl.
She should at least have left a suicide note.
If she had explained why she left, we might understand.
Every year at this time, I wonder about her death.
I know it's harder for you.
She must have had nothing to say.
In that case, if she left you so easily,
why can't you just easily let her go?
I could really go for a cold beer.
Let's go.
This isn't the kind of day for drinking.
What's going on? You never refuse a drink.
This is a perfect day to bare your soul.
It is?
I won't come here to see you next year and I won't regret it.
What kind of wish is that?
It's a wish I made... to Su In.
That she'll let you meet a kind and beautiful girl,
and you won't need to come here anymore.
Of course, I made a wish for myself.
I will definitely have a beautiful and sexy girlfriend, too.
That needs more than a wish, it needs a miracle.
You jerk.
Hey. Is there some rule that people like us can't have miracles?
Hey... Anyway...
Editor Dokgo, she's anxiously awaiting your new project.
You've been hanging out with her a lot recently.
Oh, well... I'm not sure why...
we just seem to be able to talk,
and we get along well in other ways.
Like what other ways?
Just other ways, you jerk!
Come on. Hey! You're hiding something, aren't you?
No, you bastard!
Yuk Hae Gong, come here!
Ajussi, you killed him!
You killed that kitty, didn't you?
Are you crazy? You're not letting go?
You're right, I'm crazy!
Haru was my family!
When my family member dies, how can I be normal?
You should have just taken it out on me!
Why would you kill an innocent kitty? Why?
Did you see that?
Did you see me kill that cat?
Just because of a crazy girl like you, the whole neighborhood is in chaos!
My child saw that dead cat and is too scared to go outside now!
Was some dead cat so great?
Murderer.
What?
You witch!
You killed him.
Call the police. Go ahead and call the police!
Bad luck nutjob.
What can I do?
That kitty...
I know.
Move! Get out of here!
Ajussi, we'll take care of it.
Go inside.
You just take away that crazy brat.
I'll clean up in front of my own house!
I promise you that in the future, we won't feed cats here again.
So... that cat... let us take it away.
Damn bunch of bad luck!
It couldn't just have died like this!
It had to be him!
Stray cats... they usually die in the street.
No! That ajussi probably killed my Haru!
My Haru was...
It's not Haru.
Haru isn't dead.
Even though it's not Haru,
let's send it away together. Okay?
Okay. It's done.
Sleep well.
When he was alive,
he must have had some moments of happiness, right?
Only remember those. Just remember the good things.
Your cat was called Haru, isn't that right?
Yeah.
I lost Haru about 7 years ago.
At that time, I had a serious illness.
Before my operation, I left her with relatives to care for her.
But my relatives lost her.
It was my fault.
Haru must be doing very well.
This got dirty. I'll wash it for you.
Forget it.
No.
I can at least do this for you,
because I'm grateful for today.
Okay then.
This is so annoying!
In this situation, how can I still feel hungry?
What?
I want some black bean noodles.
I'm so full.
I shouldn't eat like this.
I thought you were about to lick the bowl clean.
Now you're sorry you ate it?
Big jerk.
Who is?
I mean you. You. You. You.
You just thanked me to death earlier.
That's why it's hateful.
Don't hate me too much. You'll get attached.
It must be terrible for Bok Gil having to live with you.
I wonder. I never asked her, so I don't know.
You've lived together for 7 years.
You don't even know if Bok Gil loves you or hates you?
Then if Bok Gil suddenly disappeared, would you be okay?
Sorry.
I shouldn't even think about something like that.
Well...
I guess I've been preparing my heart for that.
She's having a hard time now jumping up on the chair when it used to be easy.
She can't catch even small flying insects now.
It also seems like she's becoming a little bit lighter.
Should we get some exercise?
How did this bug get into our house?
It's so sad.
Loving something that won't live as long as you.
But at least you can be happy together now, right?
The best thing you can do is keep loving her a lot.
That's true.
Bok Gil, what does she look like?
Pretty much like any other cat.
Can I come see her?
What?
I want to see her.
Oh, well...
Bok Gil!
Miss Bok Gil.
Get lost.
Didn't you miss me?
You said you'd be coming home early. Liar.
Today,
if I told you all of it, it would be really spectacular!
But to put it simply,
thanks to being dragged around by someone, I didn't feel too sad.
As long as you're happy then?
I should tell him how that damn bug drove me crazy today.
Very good.
- Today I will give to you a special service. - Special service?
Oh, you're really stiff!
How did I become stiff?
Are you very stressed about something?
Of course I'm very stressed.
How's that? Do you feel better?
It feels good.
When you get to my age, your whole body aches.
Bok Gil, you won't leave me, will you?
Whatever. Rub my legs now.
- Who could that be? - Maybe it's the gas inspector.
Just in time to ruin the mood.
What?
I was right. I was wondering if this was it.
How did you know where I live?
I saw you walking this direction that time with the cat food.
I also saw your cat in the window before.
But, was there something...
You said I could see your cat, didn't you?
I did?
Don't you wish!
I've been living here for 7 years,
and there's never been a female who has entered this house.
But earlier...
Can I come in?
What are you doing? Hurry and tell her no!
It can't be!
-=Next Episode Preview=-
Is that your only position?
Because the two works seem evenly matched,
they plan to vote after they've seen the 10th chapter.
This is just ridiculous!
Come here.
This isn't good!
Doctor,
Bok Gil doesn't seem to be feeling well.
You like that Jong Hyeon guy, don't you?
Wait a moment.
Health check?
I made an appointment for today.
Something like Pretty Woman?
You've even been to Jong Hyeon's house?
Yes.
At night?
Yes.
Just what exactly are you thinking?
Why do you keep answering him?
Why are you still going around telling people I plagiarized your work?
Because it's true.
