Father.
- Father. There... - What's the matter?
Father. Father, Father!
Lord Bi Ryeom, you are not permitted to harass humans.
Deities' servants are exempt.
Blessings, punishments, glory, and pain.
As the deity wishes.
Okay. What do you say? It's really your turn now.
You guys lost the sacred stones, didn't you?
How did you lose the sacred stones?
- What are you talking about? - He lost them.
It's not my fault.
Moo Ra, why are you giving in so fast?
He lost them. It was his idea to use each other as an excuse.
Did you really lose the sacred stones?
Is that why you couldn't give them to us?
I wanted to tell you the truth.
But Bi Ryeom wanted to hold out.
He said you wouldn't forgive us.
Ms. Descendant.
What is she doing? Is she taking my car?
Gosh, So Ah.
(The Bride of Habaek)
(Episode 6)
Did you really lose the sacred stones?
Yes. Let me explain.
Let's go.
Let's talk tomorrow.
I can explain now.
I don't want to wait until tomorrow.
- Give me the keys. - I can drive faster.
Let's get it over with.
Just find out who is responsible for what right now.
Bi Ryeom.
This is real.
Getting hit by a human is nothing.
Hey, are you crazy?
I surrender.
You're crazy.
Why did you use violence? What were you thinking?
You don't have your power.
What if he threw you?
Are you okay?
His punch is still strong.
The phone is turned off.
- Yeom Mi. - Please leave a message.
There will be charges after the beep.
Sang Yu's phone number was...
What was it?
Gosh, I'm exhausted.
That jerk.
How did Ha Baek find out?
I thought you had told him.
I think I know.
Something like this happened 2,000 years ago too.
- Ha Baek found out then too. - Wait.
We took one of Ha Baek's fireflies each and lost them.
Give it back to me.
Why just me?
Get Bi Ryeom's first.
- Give it back to me. - Moo Ra didn't give you hers.
Why should I give you mine?
Get Moo Ra's first.
Give it to me.
Get Bi Ryeom's first.
When he found out we had lost them, he punched me...
and almost turned you into a carp.
And you used the exact same method?
Are you stupid?
Yes, I am.
You didn't know?
Fine.
If you're stupid,
why don't you just worry about Land of the Sky?
Deities' servant?
Who cares?
A deity in Land of the Sky...
brought confusion to the world of deities.
As a fellow deity, shouldn't I try to save the situation?
Save the situation?
You deliberately made Queen Mother angry...
so that she makes a deity's servant.
You just wanted to give Ha Baek a hard time for fun.
You're right.
I was disappointed when Ha Baek didn't fall for my trick.
Ha Baek...
didn't do anything then.
Why would he?
Why does he want to talk tomorrow?
He must have something important to take care of today.
What?
She's not coming.
We shouldn't have let her go like that.
I'm sure she was really shocked.
I'm here.
(Haesari)
How have you been?
I'm sure you've been well.
You wouldn't have a thing to worry about up there.
Mom, I'm sorry...
I don't come here often.
(The Late Kang Yoo Seon)
(You will be missed. Rest in peace at a place without pain.)
Mom.
Have you ever heard about...
our ancestors being deities' servants?
What did our ancestors do?
Are they your side or Dad's side?
Either of you fooled the other.
Mom.
These days,
so many weird things are happening to me.
I have no one to talk to about those things.
Yeom Mi and Sang Yu are all I have.
You remember Sang Yu, right?
Among the kids who stayed with our family,
he was the timidest one.
Yes.
He's still lingering around me.
He's so annoying. He nags too much.
Mom, do you know his phone number by any chance?
What about the phone number of my office?
I still...
haven't heard anything from Dad.
Everyone says that he's gone missing,
but both you and I know that he's not coming back by choice.
It makes me speechless.
It's not that I miss him.
I just need a closure.
Don't you think that he should at least come back to explain...
why he had to do it so that I can understand?
He can leave again after that if he wants to.
(Haesari)
Mom, you're not actually going to show up...
like those scenes...
in scary movies, are you?
You don't have to show up.
I'll be off.
(The Late Kang Yoo Seon)
Bye, Mom.
I'll visit you again soon.
(Haesari)
Are you all right?
What did you just ask?
What sin did my ancestors commit?
What kinds of deadly sins did they commit...
to make you guys think of my life and fate as your playthings?
Let me tell you. That's right.
Living is neither joyful or meaningful to me.
I've had no time to think about such things.
Future? Dream?
Sure, I guess I used to have things like that at one point in my life.
I'm currently paying for having a dream...
that I couldn't handle,
and it has exhausted me.
Nevertheless, that doesn't mean I don't care about how I die.
You said you're a deity.
Then grant me a wish.
Let me meet my dad.
I want to ask him why he had to dump all of these burdens on me...
and if he's been able to sleep at night...
and eat since leaving like that.
I want to tell him to take them all from me.
He couldn't even save his own daughter.
How is he going to save the world? If I could ask him that question,
I'd have nothing more to wish for.
That's why I can't die.
I cannot die until the day when I can meet my dad again...
and tell him all of these things.
I promise you.
I'll make sure that your life...
will never be put in danger again because of what we do...
and that I'll protect you.
That's deities' duty.
I want to be cool and say that I'll protect myself,
but to be very honest, you guys are...
too much for me to handle.
All right, promise me.
And please be sure to keep your word.
I will.
It's a deity's promise.
Deal.
Pinky swear.
Promise.
Now, it's official.
What sin did my ancestors commit?
What kinds of deadly sins did they commit...
to make you guys think of my life and fate as your playthings?
Please don't kill us. If you spare us our lives,
we'll dedicate the rest of our lives to faithfully serving all deities.
(1,200 years ago)
That's not enough.
Your family and descendants...
will have to devote themselves to divinities for generations.
Only one child will be allowed for each generation.
After the child is born,
the spouse of your descendant will leave without any exception.
Experiencing the bliss of a short-lived love...
followed by the long-lived pain of being betrayed...
will be the punishment for deceiving deities.
Also, all children in your family...
will exist solely for deities.
That will be the punishment for betraying deities.
Do you promise?
I honestly can't get used to this.
Ms. Descendant.
I should put up a partition wall soon.
What's up?
Well...
Where should I go to meet that deity?
- I want to give back her car. - Why would you give her my car?
- Sorry? - I told her that I'd keep it.
I told her to transfer the ownership.
What are you talking about? You don't even have a driver's license.
That's the excuse she gave too.
Hence, I told her to put it under your name.
- What did you just say? - It's only yours on paper.
That car is mine.
Not a chance. You don't even have a license.
I'm a deity. I'm not governed by humans' law.
Cut it out. I'm going to work.
Humans' law or deities law. Whatever.
I feel like I did all that work for nothing.
I didn't notice it yesterday, but this car drives so smoothly.
Look at this leather. My gosh, it feels so luxurious.
I've never driven a car like this before.
I should just sell it.
What are you doing these days?
Why do people think...
Mr. Shin pays you?
Gosh, I'm confused. Grandpa.
I'll call you back after parking my car.
I can't stand it anymore.
What did Mr. Bang tell him?
Luckily, people found out you two are related.
Think of what might have happened.
Who says we're related?
Why is his last name Shin?
He used to have nothing.
Does his last name make him part of the family?
That's absurd.
Aren't you going to fire him?
Cut it out.
You better behave yourself. before I shave all your hair...
and send you to a temple.
My goodness.
How is it going with the land in Gangwon Province?
No one is pulling anything sneaky, right?
Yes, everything is going fine.
No one has wanted to buy that land,
so the land owners are willing to sign the contract, but...
But?
One of the land owners...
is putting off signing the contract...
- for personal reasons. - What?
He's not playing around with us, is he?
Mr. Kim, I just arrived.
You need a garden, a suite,
and a restaurant, right?
Sorry? An interview with Mr. Shin too?
Of course. Don't worry.
You could have told me earlier.
We should help each other.
I'll call you again. Bye.
If there was no reorganization...
What a jerk.
Who is it?
Hey!
- I'm Secretary Min. - Why do you drive like that?
You were blocking the way.
I had to dodge you.
You should have stopped and honked.
That crossed my mind, but if I honked,
you'd get angry at me. That's why I didn't.
- Hey. - Secretary Min.
Also, if you're here to meet Mr. Shin, you wasted your time.
He's away right now.
He doesn't want to be interviewed.
We can provide locations for the shooting though. Bye.
Please return the handkerchief as soon as possible.
You shouldn't keep someone else's stuff too long.
What is with him?
With the leopard at Changgyeonggung dying in 1973,
Korean leopards became extinct.
Around Gangwon Province, Korean leopards...
Doctor.
Find a used-car dealer.
What happened?
Why do you raise your voice?
You left saying you were meeting Mr. Shin yesterday.
What?
You didn't show up...
without saying anything. Your phone was turned off.
You didn't come home either.
I've been watching news from the morning...
to see if there was any accident.
I'm sorry.
I thought something had happened.
How will I face the Big Boss?
If you keep doing this, I'll move back.
Cut it out and mind your own business.
Mr. Shin called a hundred times and came here a hundred times.
Ms. Yoon.
I'm sorry.
- Yesterday... - Doctor.
Mr. Shin is...
here.
What brings you here?
I didn't know what was going on...
or what I should do. So I kept coming here.
I'm sorry.
Something came up.
I should have called you.
My phone broke, and I didn't remember your phone number.
I was so far away,
- and I came back too late. - That's enough.
As long as you're fine, it's okay.
That's all that matters.
I'm sorry.
If you wait here, I'll get the contract...
Ms. Yoon.
- Well... - I understand.
Call me when it's ready.
See you.
Let's meet this evening.
Where will you be? I'll come to you.
Tonight, I'll be somewhere very private.
Oh, I see.
I'll get in touch with you soon.
- I'm sorry. - All right.
Ahn Bi In, that jerk.
I have to see him again?
Sorry.
Go ahead.
Well...
I didn't do anything wrong. It's all Bi Ryeom's fault.
Moo Ra.
Well... We met up once.
And that jerk kept getting on my nerves.
I just let it slide at first, but that jerk...
I'm a deity too. Will you be more polite?
Be quiet.
Moo Ra threw a water bomb at me first.
(13 years earlier)
Hey, let's talk it out.
She was dashing towards me like a leopard.
I had to protect myself.
Protect yourself?
He shot lightning at me.
Joo Dong flung himself at us to stop us,
and while we were wrestling, the sacred stones popped out.
We found two of them right away,
but Moo Ra's ended up far away, and Joo Dong went to get it.
- But he never came back. - What?
He never came back no matter how long we waited.
We haven't seen him since then.
We've lost touch completely.
What are you talking about?
We've looked everywhere.
But then Bi Ryeom suddenly said he likes archeology...
and left for Rome.
I was going to look for him again when I get back.
I didn't know the red tide would rise so fast.
He's lying. He said he'd come back in a year,
but he traveled all over the world for 10 years.
Moo Ra, the world of archeology is boundless.
Humans and chimpanzees diverged from the same species...
six million years ago.
Humans might have existed longer than we have.
Look at that.
He keeps babbling nonsense. How would I not fight with him?
You guys.
How can you be so irresponsible?
No.
Ha Baek, here's the thing. subtitles ripped and synced by riri13
If you hadn't lost the map,
everything would have been fine.
The map would have brought you wherever we were.
Don't you think?
We did our best to find it.
But I've been busy.
Strange things have been happening to the rivers in the south.
It's stressing me out.
- Fine. - And...
Joo Dong can be very obsessive.
When he's up to something, he disappears...
and never gets in touch.
Where did you go there that day?
Joo Dong must have been working around there.
He asked me to come, saying something was strange.
Something strange?
What was it?
Where did you go there that day?
Joo Dong must have been working around there.
He asked me to come, saying something was strange.
Something strange?
What was it?
Well... I don't know.
I got into a fight with Bi Ryeom as soon as I got there.
- Why did you guys fight? - You don't need to know.
Don't worry.
You still have a lot of time until the last red tide.
We'll be able to find them before that.
I don't like it,
but Bi Ryeom hangs out with low-level deities that are here.
I'm sure he's doing some legwork at the moment.
The fact that you lost the map isn't the problem.
They shouldn't have sent the sacred stones here to begin with.
I mean, what does it have to do with becoming the king of deities?
Becoming a king in the world of deities...
has nothing to do with humans.
Why is the sacred stone kept there?
What a nuisance.
That's what I'm saying.
I have a shoot.
- You should get going. - All right.
Ha Baek.
I'm sorry.
One more thing.
I really don't like that outfit you're wearing.
How many cell phones have I bought recently?
That jerk Ahn Bi In's number is... I don't have his number.
Ha Baek's number... I don't have his number either.
What am I doing? Those jerks' numbers...
can't be the first numbers I save on my new phone.
- Hello? - It's me.
Sorry?
- Who is this... - Bring my car.
I have to go somewhere.
Pardon me?
I said you can just give me the keys.
Why did you come with me?
Don't get me started.
What do I need to get that thing called "driver's license"?
A government-issued ID...
and three color photos that were taken within six months.
Then take the written, driving course, and on-road driving tests.
Why? Do you want to get one?
It sounds like a nuisance, but I'll do it.
How are you going to get an ID?
ID?
Buy one for me, and give me the receipt.
Forget it.
Anyway, why did you need to come here?
Here?
What a strange coincidence.
This spot must be cursed.
I lost something here too.
I hope the jerk who stole it from me got his feet hurt badly.
You should've been careful.
Dear deities, if you actually exist,
please make every toe of his get infected with athlete's foot fungus.
And I want candida fungus on every toenail of his...
No deity I know would do such things.
You said even Mr. Nam couldn't find it.
But still, I wanted to check just in case.
What does the map look like again?
There's no point in telling you because it won't be visible to you.
Who knows? I may be able to see it because I'm a deity's servant.
You won't understand even if I tell you.
Who knows?
I may be able to because I'm a deity's servant.
It's hard to describe what it's like.
Who knows?
I may be able to figure out what you're trying to say.
It's fluid like water and solid like fire at the same time.
The unbending truth that is engraved on a hard, dry surface.
Every moment is at a still stop...
and flowing at the same time...
to arrive at the one, perfect answer.
If you see anything that fits this description, you should...
make sure to pick it up right away.
I'll just wait for you. Take your time.
Ahn Bi In, that jerk.
(Recent calls)
Give me Ahn Bi In's number.
- Who? - Ahn...
Well, I mean the deity, Bi Ryeom.
What's his number?
I told you to stay far away from him.
I left something in his car.
Please?
Gosh, how mean.
Fine, I won't disturb you.
Mr. Nature...
(Mr. Nature)
(The one who protects me)
(Guardian)
(Water Demon)
He always sits in that rubber bin...
and reads newspapers.
Or he spends all his time surfing on the Internet.
Because I'm so used to seeing him sitting down idly,
I can't believe that I'm watching him trying his best to do something.
He asked us to come by that day, saying he noticed something odd.
Something odd.
What's he doing now?
Is he praying? Or is he sleeping?
Is he showing off his jawline?
I promise you.
I'll make sure that your life...
will never be put in danger again because of what we do...
and that I'll protect you.
That's deities' duty.
Deities'...
duty?
What are you recording?
I... I...
I was just... Did you find it?
No, I didn't. I must've lost it on the way.
What is it?
- Do you want to take photos? - Photos?
Let's commemorate this moment.
Neither of us have fond memories of this spot, so let's remember it.
Why would you want to commemorate such a thing?
Consider it an honor.
Then let's... There.
- I can't get us in the frame. - Give it to me.
Do you want that tree in the photo too?
Yes.
There.
One.
Two.
Three.
Again.
- Are you stupid? - Can't you time that right?
Aren't you a deity?
Again.
1, 2, 3!
Let's go. Let's just go.
I'll send you the pictures.
Show me the photos from today.
There are six photos.
Send them to Water Demon.
What?
(There are 6 photos to send. Please confirm.)
Please select your delivery method.
(Please select your delivery method.)
You're such a good girl.
Will it all be over once you find the last deity?
That's right.
Then will you be going back?
I will be.
I guess your promise to protect me was temporary.
What?
Nothing.
What if you go back and you still don't have your power?
That won't happen,
since the Land of Water is me and I, it.
Nature is meant to return to nature.
I am a bit flabbergasted though.
They were being so mean because they lost them?
To be honest, I thought there was a grand conspiracy.
- Conspiracy? - Yes.
Like a fight for the throne?
I guess that doesn't exist in the land of deities.
Kings are born. It is destined.
I hear humans choose their kings.
There's no king.
They are delegated authority temporarily by the people,
because the people are busy.
- Delegated? - Yes.
The problem is that they often forget.
That's why you have to pick someone with a good memory.
Although it doesn't matter, since I'm going to leave.
Does it really not matter?
What?
What if I have to leave the Land of Water forever?
What if I can never return?
Would I feel like it doesn't matter, like you do?
Naturally, that will never happen,
since I can't even imagine a Land of Water without me.
What is this smell?
I just had a drink with my boss.
We didn't have any customers.
Tell me where Bi In is.
I need to go see my land.
- What? - I need to check something.
I'm busy too.
I told you, there's no need to meet with him. Let's go.
I'll decide whether or not I need to see him.
I need to check something today.
You people...
Aren't you hungry?
- Hello? - It's me.
- Are you closing your clinic? - Yeom Mi!
I heard you left this morning.
It's fine. We have no patients anyway.
- Still... - You evil witch!
How could you do this to me?
Do you know what I've been through?
You don't care whether I die or not, do you?
You said I was your one and only friend.
You don't care if I get robbed, scammed,
or if a water demon torments me, do you?
You don't...
Hello? What's this?
Hello?
Come to my shop. I want to introduce you to someone.
That robber. Scammer.
Particularly, that water demon.
You don't mean me, do you?
If you're done, let's go.
Let's eat first.
We're going to my friend.
Why is Jude Law still stuck to you like glue?
You have no right to ask that now.
There's a time for everything.
I'll introduce you, since you're curious.
This is Lord Ha Baek, the deity of water.
This is his subordinate, Mr. Nam Soo Ri.
Hello.
I guess you're very angry.
Fine. I did stay extra long this time.
I had my reasons.
I met someone incredible at Mount Gyeryong.
He goes by "Master Dong Gak". He's really gifted.
Is he?
He received the gift long ago, but it's still strong.
Is that right?
He has to return to Mount Gyeryong tomorrow, so you have to meet him.
- Forget it. I'm busy. - Do as I say.
You two can wait right there.
Stop it.
This is the friend I mentioned.
She may be young, but she's been through a lot.
Ask where your father is.
I wish I could see it myself.
I can see everyone else's fortune but yours.
That's why I went to Mount Gyeryong, in case I'm not devoted enough.
Parents aren't in your fortune.
See?
Please take good care of her.
You don't look like you should be below someone else.
You should at least be blessed with a good man, but you're not.
You must have a headache recently because of some land.
It's your land, but it isn't.
But it can't become someone else's either.
You can't sell it.
You were wrong. I'm selling it.
What's the point in great luck coming your way, with your fate?
You thought it was a pot of gold, but it was a pot of coal.
It's like sand being thrown on your food.
Why?
You have something stiff blocking your path, so luck evades you.
He's a stubborn one.
Stubborn?
A deity came into your home. An evil spirit.
If you don't get rid of it first,
even gold will turn into gravel.
He isn't an evil spirit.
He's a real deity.
Hey! Would an evil spirit say he's an evil spirit?
Who's calling whom an evil spirit?
Who is that little...
- What's wrong? - Joo Geol Lin.
How dare you...
How dare...
I mean...
Lord Ha Baek. Please, don't kill me.
No. Kill me.
No, don't kill... Take that.
Oh my gosh. You fish.
Joo Geol Lin!
Stop him!
- Oh my gosh. Master. - Move.
- Excuse me. Would you please... - Sure.
No, that's not...
This isn't right, you punk!
Where? Where did he go?
That way. What's wrong with him?
He's a voracious deity.
A voracious deity?
Step aside!
Move!
Lord Ha Baek!
Gosh. I'm alive.
Stop right there!
Even without his power, he's super fast.
Hey. Get over here.
- Get over here! - No!
Hey. Get over here.
- Get over here! - No!
What happened?
I thought he'd rise into the sky,
but he sank into the ground.
How the...
Darn it.
Here you go.
Enjoy.
He got worse after seeing Joo Geol Lin.
It looks like an intense subjective symptom.
It'll calm down soon.
What do you plan to do if you catch that voracious deity?
- We need to lift the curse. - You can do that?
Of course. It isn't difficult. You see...
Soo Ri.
How do you lift it?
Well, the thing is...
I see.
We have to kiss again.
What's the big deal?
I guess it's awkward.
Still, what's the big deal?
I guess.
It's better than being hungry forever.
Just close your eyes and...
I won't be hungry forever.
It'll be automatically lifted once we return to our world.
His power too.
When you go back?
About that curse...
How do I get it lifted from my family?
Yours isn't a curse. It's a promise.
- Is it different? - It is.
Why did my ancestors make such a promise?
- They committed a sin. - What sin?
I really want to know.
I'll agree to it, if it's reasonable.
There was a woman.
She was sold and thrown into the water.
The current deity of water looked kindly on her...
and let her live in the Land of Water.
She lived in luxury.
However, at some point,
she began to lose weight, worrying about her blind father.
So he let her go visit.
He sent her with gold and silver,
and she never returned.
It turned out, she married the king of her land.
The entire world of deities was outraged at the betrayal.
He was so good to her.
Was that woman's last name "Shim", by any chance?
Shim Chung?
Let's go.
- May I get this packed up? - Okay.
My dad's last name is Yoon, and my mom's is Kang.
At least make sure the last name is the same next time.
Bring me to Bi In.
I told you, you don't need to see him.
Look here.
- What is that? - What you're searching for.
I think it's So Ah's. Bring it to her.
(Real Estate Purchase Agreement)
What... What is this?
How dare you think of selling a deity's land?
- Hey. - I was too stunned to read it all.
It was obviously about selling the land.
I don't know to whom you wanted to sell it,
but don't waste their time.
I'll forgive you this one time, so let's go there now.
Why is this your land?
This is my land!
That land will never be sold.
Why are you doing this to me?
This was...
This was so important to me.
You may sell everything else,
- but not the land. - There's nothing else to sell!
Ms. Descendant!
Wait.
I was slightly happy when you said you'd protect me.
I wanted to believe you, since you said it was the deity's duty.
I thought...
I finally had someone on my side, as you had mentioned.
I thought...
it was a good thing...
that you lived with me.
I had ridiculous thoughts like that.
I knew that one morning,
you'd be gone, but...
I knew that, but...
I thought it would be okay to be excited for the time being.
Like an idiot,
I was slightly happy today.
That angers me so much.
It angers me.
I have no idea what kind of a person... No.
I have no idea...
what kind of a deity you are.
I am...
- the King of the Land of Water... - Exactly.
You're from a much greater world.
You should do greater things.
Non-consequential little things...
can fade like a sound traveling far, far away,
but it wouldn't matter.

Ms. Yoon?
You know that personal space where you are right now?
Do you mind if I stop by?
Please.
So Ah!
So Ah.
So Ah!
(The Bride of Habaek)
I said I'd protect you.
I can read people's emotions if I really try.
I told you to stay away from my woman.
- What? - I'll pick you up after work.
What does this mean?
I'm the only one suffering.
I think that punk Ha Baek wants to go back soon too.
- What is it? - Nothing is going right...
because of the deities.
I'm sorry too.
What are you doing?
Consider it an early farewell party.
What about that breeze that made your heart sway?
It stopped blowing already.
