If only...
I had your winged dress.
What can I do...
to make you stay?
What must I do...
to not lose you?
You finally came to me and I...
I feel so uneasy.
Mr. Geum!
Don't go.
Don't leave me,
please.
Mr. Geum!
Mr. Geum! Mr. Geum!
Are you all right?
Mr. Geum,
do you think you can move?
Well...
I'm sorry that I can't walk you to your house because of my ankle.
Go home safely.
It takes me only a few steps to get there. I'm all right.
Thank you for today.
Look.
You know...
Well...
Goodnight.
You know, earlier in the mountain...
Later.
Let's talk later.
I'm sorry for causing you trouble at night again.
I'll leave you right after I find Jeom Soon.
All right.
What's all this mess?
It seems like they drank a lot.
Jeom Soon isn't here.
Isn't that her?
What is she doing here?
Why is Ham Suk here?
You're here, Fairy Seon.
Didn't Jeom Soon come here?
What? Jeom Soon didn't get back home?
She went outside to meet her friend earlier in the afternoon.
She said she'd come here if things got late.
What time is it now?
Gosh, where is she?
She left in panties.
I better go look for her.
She's never been outside until this hour in Seoul.
You don't know where to go though.
You aren't used to this area either.
She did seem like she wanted to hang out,
but she promised me that she'd come home early.
That troublemaker always keeps her promise.
- I'll go look for her. - I'll go with you.
But you hurt your ankle.
I'll go.
No, it's late at night. It's dangerous.
Geum and I will go.
See? I have no problem walking.
What kind of jerk did that? Go die.
I'll be off then.
- Go with me. - Why would you...
Stop bothering me, punk.
Wait.
Get in.
I'm sorry for troubling you until this hour.
Don't be.
- Well... - Well...
Go ahead.
No, you should go first.
Jeom Soon mentioned a craft beer pub a few times before.
Can we try that place?
What is a beer pub?
It's a drinking place.
But it isn't anything bad.
Like selling various beverages,
they serve different kinds of craft beer.
I see. She never told me anything about such a place.
Perhaps, she didn't want to make you worry.
Like now.
Stay in the car.
I'll go check if she's in there.
(Gangnam's finest restaurant with rice wine)
Goodness.
Why are you walking towards me in those eyes?
Ms. Fairy.
Who are you?
Stay there.
I told you to stay in the car.
I came out to see if that girl was okay.
Then this guy suddenly showed up.
There are a lot of drunk people in Seoul at night.
I should check bars that are open until late.
Don't worry too much.
She said she was hanging out with her friend named Gyeong Soon.
It's too dangerous for those two innocent girls to be out at night.
- Jeong Soo. - Yes, Gyeong Sul?
- Jeong Soo. - What is it, Gyeong Sul?
Jeong Soo.
Can you stop calling my name?
Come on. It feels like a dream to be with you until late hours.
Still, don't do it.
Why? I like your name.
Gyeong Sul.
Do you have any secrets from me?
Secrets?
- I'm not sure. Why do you ask? - Because I do.
What is it?
It wouldn't be a secret if I revealed it right away.
It's a secret because I can't tell you.
- I think I have one too. - What is it?
I can't tell you for free.
Sorry. I thought you'd be okay with it.
Maybe she's in my house.
Fairy Oh told her to come straight to my house...
if it was getting too late.
Jeom Soon pestered me so much to buy her a phone.
I should've bought her one.
Oh, right.
I forgot to give this back to you.
Can't you keep it?
Jeom Soon might make a call.
Okay.
Ms. Fairy, get off first...
Mr. Geum.
I have to tell you something.
Back in the mountain...
Whatever the case,
I upset you when you came all the way with me.
I'm sorry.
I kissed a guy.
We just parted and I miss him already.
Jeom Soon.
Mom. Mr. Kim.
Jeom Soon. Where were you all day?
Well...
Okay. Say what you will.
- I meant to... - Come back early.
But you realized Seoul's safe and not that dangerous,
and you had a friend to drive you, so you lost track of time.
Yes, right, I forgot.
It's a safe place and I lost track of time.
And what? You didn't drink any alcohol.
Not knowing that, your mom and I...
checked so many bars that you didn't even go.
Right. I didn't go anywhere near any bar. My feet never touched one.
Even so, do you know how worried your mom was?
Apologize to her.
Even though I can sense that you're incredibly sorry already.
Mom, I'm sorry.
I felt it too.
You're incredibly sorry.
Mr. Geum.
I was such a nuisance today.
You must be tired. Go home and to bed.
I'll drive you back.
You were good and showed how sorry you were, so...
No.
Jeom Soon and I will walk back and chat as well.
Mr. Geum.
I am...
sincerely grateful for today.
Mom, I'm sorry.
I must've lost my mind.
It's okay. You're back safe and sound.
Really? Do you mean that?
You're at the age where I think something might...
happen to you at any moment.
Thanks for understanding, Mom.
Where did you go today?
Are you sure it wasn't dangerous?
We went to Hangang Park because I wanted to see the river.
Why would I be in danger when I'm so strong?
Oh, right.
Fairy Oh said you went to meet a friend called Gyeong Soon.
I'd never heard that name before and was perplexed.
To tell the truth, it's not Gyeong Soon.
I was a bit too embarrassed to tell you.
It's Gyeong Sul. Um Gyeong Sul.
Is it the man you like?
Is it?
You could say so.
I guess.
Is he a nice person?
Of course. He's totally cute.
I'll introduce him to you when we're closer.
You can bring him over before you get closer too.
Mom, did you find out what you wanted to?
Does Dad remember everything?
Does he recognize us?
Well...
His memories aren't all back yet.
Mom, then can we stay in Seoul in the meantime?
Do you like it here?
Yes. Seoul's way nicer than Gyeryong.
There's a guy I like and WiFi everywhere.
Oh, and Mr. Kim's nearby too.
I knew he was sweet, but he's loyal too.
He helped you look for me.
He's almost like a dad.
I'm not saying he is my dad. He's like one.
Anyway, Mom, let's go to Hangang Park together one day.
There are food trucks selling steak and grilled sausages.
It's awesome. Let's go together one day.
Okay, let's.
Did you sleep well?
Good morning. We just got up too.
Come and eat.
Okay.
Why do we have expensive eel on the breakfast table?
It must've taken so long to clean.
All you have to do is drive a nail through the head,
break the spine, and pull it out with the head.
That's the end of it. It's not that hard.
It's nothing really.
Where's Professor Jung? Did he not come home?
Professor Jung and my Geum...
seem to be competing who's busier.
They both left at dawn.
- He came home then? - Yes.
He came home late. I got up for a while and saw him.
Mr. Kim went back out again to look for Jeom Soon.
He would do that.
Yi Hyun... I mean Professor Jung.
What time did he come back?
Was it midnight?
He must've been really tired.
His dirty clothes are still in his room.
When Professor Jung gets home, he always puts his shirts...
in the electric closet thing...
that airs out the clothes.
If you think about it, he has the temperament of a weasel.
He's so sensitive.
Are weasels sensitive?
They're so fierce.
Back in the day,
I was a famous hunter.
I saw it.
What did you see?
When Mr. Kim came back, a weasel came out of his room.
Okay, okay, we got that.
But then the two men glared at each other like this...
and the atmosphere got all awkward.
You slept so well you wouldn't have woken up...
if someone slapped you. Are you seeing things?
They wouldn't glare at each other. He'd respect his professor.
And my Geum has never looked at anyone like this.
He gets on so well with his professor.
Don't spread fake news.
It can become a habit.
Why are you all picking on me?
I saw it with my two eyes.
See for yourself when they come home later, okay?
You need more vitamin C. Eat some of this.
Protein is what I lack.
She said vitamin C.
You know who I am.
I am...
Who are you?
You.
Why are you me?
You're a deer.
You should make up for what you did.
Geum's mother told me to give you this.
Did you two get up to something?
What were you doing at my place?
I went over out of concern.
I called so many times. Why didn't you answer your phone?
I went to a mountain and...
my phone and GPS both died.
Why go to a mountain?
Must I tell you everything?
You and that nasty temper of yours.
- What? - What!
Gosh, it's hot.
The weather's chillier actually, so is it andropause you have?
Geum's mother is here in person.
She seems to be a very devoted and loving mother.
I didn't get to see you when you came in last night,
but you left early today without having breakfast.
Still, you didn't have to pack me a lunch box.
You have sore fingers.
It's natural to experience soreness all over my body with age.
Why not use it while I can though?
I'd rather have them pull out eel bones.
Did something happen between you and Professor Jung?
Of course not.
Nothing happened, right?
That Mr. Park, the insolent man who insists he's older than me...
when he only looks like a cheeky little boy...
has been spreading false rumors at home.
It's nothing though.
I packed enough food,
so share it with those at the lab...
who always eat ramyeon for meals.
I will.
I packed more for Professor Jung...
and had it delivered through Professor Lee,
so don't think that you must leave some for him.
All right. Don't you worry.
But I do.
Goodness.
Professor Lee, do you think...
I'm a selfish person?
Did you have an epiphany in the woods?
If I had to answer,
you sure are. You're absolutely selfish.
Darn it.
Did someone say that you are?
For all my life,
I had to be selfish in order to obtain things.
Nothing was ever just handed to me.
But what about this?
And me.
Do you think everyone can befriend someone...
as smart, pretty, and crude as I am?
Could anyone ever love me?
I think you're already loved.
You're loved a lot, actually.
Professor Jung.
My gosh!
What are you doing?
That woman over there. The one in the hideous outfit.
The one holding hands with Geum, your boyfriend!
What about her?
Do you know who she is?
Why do you ask?
I, Park Jun Seong, have something to sort out with her.
I don't know. Why don't you ask her yourself?
- She's Geum's mother. - Kim Geum's mother?
That's mine, you see.
The beverage I paid for seemed to have come out now.
Is that so?
Fairy Seon!
Master Gu, I'm glad you're here.
Let me brew you a cup of coffee.
Okay.
Did you get what you came here for?
Is that weasel really your husband?
Are things going well?
You seem gaunter.
He has the memories of being my husband.
For the past 699 years,
no one but him has recognized Jeom Soon.
That's right. He came to Fairy Falls where mortals aren't allowed.
His current life brought him much pain though.
That's why he refuses to believe beyond what he can see...
and is terrified of the beauties in life.
Just like a young child who has been constantly hurt,
he seems fragile and unstable.
This life must've been hard for him...
although his slick and dandy looks suggest otherwise.
What did he say? Does he remember now?
Did he say that he's your husband?
Do you feel like he's your husband?
Don't go.
Don't leave me,
please.
Well,
my heart hurts every time I see him.
It's as if I've been ignoring someone I should've embraced.
I feel guilty and sorry.
Wait. What does that mean?
Is he your husband or not?
All I want to do is ease his nerves...
and make sure that he isn't alone.
Master Gu,
this must be the marital bond I've learned...
over the past 699 years.
I've always been single, so how should I know?
Why are your eyes brimming with tears though?
You can finally get back your winged dress again.
You're all here.
Are you eating ramyeon for breakfast?
Yes. I see you came to the lab early today.
Did you have breakfast? Want to join us?
Have this instead of ramyeon.
My mom packed us some food.
Nice!
It's a lunch box.
Hey, are there any walnut cookies?
It looks like it's the end of the world for him.
The Barista Granny must've dumped him too.
Is Geum just not charming at all?
He's quite handsome though.
Hold on a second. In terms of looks, mine are better.
Who on earth gave you this boost of confidence?
Was it your parents?
It's eel. Unbelievable!
Speak louder, will you?
Why are you whispering as if we're talking in secret?
It's something I hate.
You're unbelievable.
You're such a traitor, you know.
Are you insane?
My ancestor was a famous independence activist.
Exactly, so let's not be cowards.
You're being very cheeky with me...
even though I never said you could be.
Stop arguing already.
I don't have an appetite, so go ahead.
Shall we?
Hello, Professor.
- Good morning. - Hello.
Does it look like a good morning for me?
Did something happen?
I'm talking to him.
Was your mother on campus just now?
Yes, is there something wrong?
Is that what she brought you today?
Pardon?
- Oh, yes. - Open it.
It's just a lunch box.
I'm talking to him. Now open them!
Make me a wrap.
Right now!
What is this about?
A few days ago, your mother wronged me.
I must receive an apology, so give me her number.
If you tell me what it's about,
I'll have her call you.
Your mother...
took my stuff without permission.
My mother? What did she take?
Give me her number if you don't want to make it big.
I may let it slide if she apologizes sincerely.
I'll call her right now.
I'm busy, so write her number down already.
You shouldn't covet what belongs to others...
if you don't want to get in trouble.
He's one to talk.
I think he did it to get your mother's number.
Ms. Cho. Ms. Cho!
Thank goodness.
- No. - I didn't even start talking.
What's "thank goodness" to you is always bothersome to me.
- By any chance... - No.
Let me use your phone if you aren't playing games.
I knew it. My answer is no.
But it's urgent.
You're jobless,
so what's there to be urgent unless it's about poo or money?
That's right. It's about money.
My friend isn't paying back my money.
If I don't get that money, I won't be able to pay you...
Thank you.
He isn't answering.
Of course he won't. He has to pay you back.
I'm sure he's up to something busy.
Tell me if you get any call from this number.
Hey. You think it's that easy to have someone pay you back?
You might actually have to hire people for the job.
Well,
should I do it for you?
It's all right.
I'll take this.
Can you put it in my hair?
There are...
a lot of...
eels...
in here.
There are a lot,
so should I share some with her?
Let's try that side where the pond is.
Sure, try going there alone.
Isn't that the weasel?
Why would you call a person like that, dear?
I'm not your "dear", dear.
It's driving me crazy.
What? Did you just call me "dear"?
Dear, dear...
Anyway, you aren't allowed to approach me.
I have my power too.
Okay, I get it.
He's leaving. Professor Jung!
Isn't that you, Professor Jung?
You're here, Professor Jung.
What an abundant meal.
I didn't know you got a lunch box too.
My immortal friends got me one.
I'm envious of you.
People around you all care about you.
Your lunch box looks bigger than mine though.
I'm sure you're cared much more than me.
I feel like...
she made me this lunch box out of compassion.
To have someone...
care about me for nothing...
doesn't come so sincere to me.
Isn't it delicious?
She simply wanted...
to share delicious food with the people she likes.
She didn't pack this to feed you out of compassion.
She didn't do this to get something in return either.
She wanted to share good memories with you.
It's her affection.
If you aren't used to this,
you just have to get used to it later.
Will that day come?
What are you so afraid of?
I told you.
I'm not used to this kind of favor.
I didn't have a mom who made food for me...
like Geum's mother.
Perhaps, it's natural for me to get scared first...
when someone cares for me.
Because I know just too well...
about what it feels not to be loved.
I get scared I might lose their love first.
Is it just me who feels this way?
Don't be afraid.
You're a good man.
You deserve to eat a meal box that's much bigger than this.
Here.
He's become a fool. How disappointing.
- Geum. - Yes?
You just needed to make one copy of it, not tons of it.
Oh, sorry.
- Sorry. - Forget it.
You look sleepy. Go get yourself coffee.
I'll take care of this.
It's okay. I'll do it.
I said I'll do it.
You haven't eaten anything,
stuck in this lab all day long.
Fill your stomach especially with some coffee.
What...
What's going on? You're organizing all this...
because Geum got dumped?
Our lives were about to be much more at ease.
You still don't know Geum, don't you?
He's crying now.
You don't want to exploit that depressed punk, do you?
He isn't crying.
I didn't see a single tear coming down from his eyes.
Geum's not the sassy type,
so he can't eat when he's upset.
He can't even hide his feelings,
so he sits at his desk until he feels better.
He was like that last year when his favorite, Professor Jang died...
and on the day an assistant quit because he couldn't pay the tuition.
He tries not to inconvenience others...
by sitting at his desk without eating.
That's how silly he is.
I don't know if it's Barista Granny or Professor Lee,
but he's keeping his feelings...
bottled up and won't face us.
I was thoughtful enough to catch that.
I didn't think there was much to you.
But I see you're able to see how a man feels.
I think...
I like you more than the fishcake lady now.
I like you more, second only to the cafeteria girl.
What? How dare you?
Oh Gyeong Sik.
Do you want to get beaten up by your second best?
Here you go.
- Thank you. - Bye.
I'm sorry. I was being silly.
It's okay. Leave it.
I got carried away.
Goodbye.
I know I'm not the one you're looking for...
and that I should stop coming to see you like this.
But I can't seem to do that.
What should I do, Ms. Fairy?
Professor, hello.
Hi.
Doesn't he have a lecture later?
He does. Is it canceled?
Professor.
Professor, did you cancel today's lecture?
Oh, the lecture.
No, it's not canceled.
Okay.
What was that about?
What's wrong with him?
She's still here.
Geum's mom. Geum's mom.
Does she not hear me?
Geum's mom!
Master Gu.
I called but you didn't answer.
I was listening to a song.
I cried
(Passion)
Hello?
Is this the rap thing that Jeom Soon listens to?
This isn't how the song goes.
It's a classic.
Hello?
The song's ahead of its time.
- Is it really? - Yes.
What was that?
She said her husband had died.
Is that her boyfriend?
I'm Park Jun Seong...
and I'll make her pay for this humiliation too.
Not just four minutes.
Not 40 minutes but an hour and 40 minutes late?
I'll kill you.
Why does it have to be the day after we kissed?
It can't be that,
but does he not like me anymore?
Why on earth?
(Student Union)
Why on earth?
Why did I stay indoors playing games?
It's so nice out here.
Is that Gyeong Sul?
He got cuter since I last saw him.
Wasn't that...
Jeom Soon?
What are you doing here?
I'd like to join the gaming club.
Is it not here?
Are you a student?
I'm a freshman.
Who are you to be coming out of our room?
Hey. I told you I thought someone was using our room.
Isn't that him?
Are you the handsome guy that took Jeom Soon's money?
I should get it back for her.
Oh, dear.
I feel bad already.
I'm about to make a cutie cry.
Jeom Soon?
Why were you in your cat form...
and what's with the tears?
Mr. Kim...
Right. Did something happen?
Mr. Kim, please don't be alarmed.
Listen to me carefully.
I think I was dumped.
- What? - I think the boy I like...
dumped me.
Wait, you only have one sweater, right?
Yes. Thanks for noticing.
Just so you know, I went...
to Han River yesterday.
Really?
Why? What is it?
After what happened on our date at Han River,
he hasn't called me back.
After what happened?
What?
Yes.
Can you tell me what happened?
I don't think that'd be wise.
Well, why don't you eat this?
I cut off meat...
so that I can be a proper human for Gyeong Sul.
I see it's jumbo-sized.
Mister Kim, I've been reborn 5 times...
during my life of 699 years,
but this was my first kiss.
I can't reach him though.
He disappeared after we kissed.
This is the worst feeling ever since that tiger bit my pinky.
It's barely been a day though.
Shouldn't you wait a while longer?
I feel more miserable as each second passes.
It's hard to even breathe!
I completely understand.
No one's disappeared on you after sharing a kiss though.
I think...
I have a memory that's more painful.
Nothing could possibly hurt more!
Someone I like...
kissed another man.
Here, have this.
I lied to Wizard Park that I ran out of it...
so I could have it later.
By any chance,
is the woman you like my mom?
Jeom Soon.
I'm...
so angry.
Why do I feel...
more connected to Ms. Fairy than Professor Jung?
Mr. Kim, are you crying?
Why do I feel...
like we are meant to be?
No matter how many times I'm reborn,
I'll only have eyes for her.
Why do I feel like she'd be the same way?
If this is how I feel,
I can't just give up on Ms. Fairy.
I should ask...
if her heart really beats for Professor Jung and not for me.
I should, right?
I'll tell her.
What?
I'll tell her everything.
I don't know why,
I don't know how I'm going to explain this,
but I'll tell her...
that she's supposed to be mine.
(Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter)
I...
have been stealing glances at a man who's not my husband.
What on earth is that I'm feeling?
I know it's selfish of me to ask,
but could you not think about Geum?
But Ms. Fairy chose you, Professor Jung.
What good are dreams anyway?
A long time has passed already.
We must go back.
Stop. Just stop!
Was it my mistake to come here in the first place?
(Why does a deer appear in this fairy and woodcutter tale?)
Wait, Ms. Lee.
Hello, Professor Jung.
Gosh, he's always so adorable.
Why did the deer from "The Fairy and the Woodcutter"...
appear in front of the woodcutter?
Sorry?
Well, the woodcutter was chasing it.
Are you sure that there's no other reason?
- Sorry? - Fine, let's move on.
As a token of gratitude for saving its life,
the deer told the woodcutter where the Fairy Falls was.
That's what led to him marrying the fairy.
- So? - Then,
what happened to the deer?
As you know, the fairy takes her children up to the sky...
when she gets her winged dress back.
The deer appeared to the lonely woodcutter again...
and told him that a bucket would appear at the pond.
It tells the woodcutter to ride it...
up to the sky.
Why are you asking me this though?
Let's discuss this for instance.
If the woodcutter passed away...
before he could tell her where her winged dress was,
how would the story go?
That version of the story has never been passed down,
but the fairy would've been earthbound.
- What about the deer? - Why do you keep mentioning it?
The deer appeared again,
so it must've been hanging around the woodcutter.
Why? To return the favor?
Maybe it can't live in debt.
Could it perhaps be a perfectionist?
Well...
Gosh, this is burdening.
Could a deer be reborn in the form of a human?
Could it have been reborn as the dead woodcutter...
and have appeared in front of the fairy?
And become the fairy's second husband?
He's not adorable at all.
All right. I think I get it. Thank you.
Why on earth would he ask me about the deer?
Shouldn't the biology professor be more familiar with it than I?
