When Time Stopped
Episode 8
Why is this bastard not picking up?
Hyungnim.
Mr. Soo Kwang,
I spent so much money for you to take care of that building.
Now, do you understand
what you have to do?
So, what are you going to do now?
Well, right now... I mean.
I'll first kidnap.
Yes! I will
I will kidnap first.
Because you work so ignorantly
something goes wrong, doesn't it?
Here, look at this first. Promissory Note
Here is a pen.
Kim Seon Ho, that is you, correct?
Of course that's me.
Don't worry, I'll pay you back as soon as possible.
No, that's okay. Take your time.
Well, for us it'll be okay as long as we receive the interest on time.
Yeah.
Still, she is your niece.
Are you going to be okay?
I don't have a family.
You see?
You have to have that kind of determination
to do this kind of work.
It's your last chance.
If you lose this opportunity,
one part of you
will really go missing.
Promissory Note
Confirmation of full loan repayment
Did something good happen?
Of course. Something really good just happened.
Other than that, when should we go?
This time I'll make sure to treat you.
Then, can we go to an expensive restaurant?
Of course, let's go eat something really expensive.
Do you know?
I'm starting to understand
why the time I have
is flowing to you.
Oh~ chicken. Boss, what is this?
It's a good bye menu.
You worked hard.
Thank you.
If your part-timer can't come, let me know. I'll come over as fast as I can.
Don't worry, I'm not going to bother you.
No need to say such things, just keep on writing.
Let me have an author as a friend.
Cheers!
This bracelet was glowing?
It's not like there's some battery operating technology inside the bracelet.
Are you sure the bracelet was glowing?
Sigh, I have no idea.
Last time I asked you to find out where this came from.
You're quite working this old man to his grave.
Hey kid. It's not like I'm your personal slave.
I'm sorry.
I thought this bracelet was just an ordinary bracelet,
but it's quite old
Arrested Tomb Raiders Who Stole Antiquities On Display.
I looked into it but this bracelet is from the Silla era.
If you're that curious, why don't you go to Gyeongju?
Again,
the male lead who saved the female lead from danger.
She looks like she almost starts to cry,
tearing up in her eyes...
He approaches to the female lead who has wet eyes.
He wipes her tears.
♫ The awkwardness suddenly turned into smiles ♫
♫ My night was filled only with your pretty face ♫
♫ My face was always dark, that's how dark my past was ♫
♫ I just hope you'll never know ♫
Why did you come now?
I'm sorry.
♫ When I got nervous over the pieces that didn't fit into our shape at all ♫
♫ You softly touched me and embraced me ♫
I missed you.
♫ As you took your last step in front of me ♫
♫ I was lingering, not able to go further ♫
♫ I hope your last footsteps will stop ♫
You saw it all right?
Yes, almost the whole thing.
For a while, I will be in Gyeongju.
Gyeongju?
Yes.
For how long?
I'm not sure. I think I'll know that until I get there.
I see.
But why is he telling me this?
In case I get worried?
Can it be? Basement likes me?
Excuse me...
When I'm not here,
can you go to Hwa Sook and Seong Joon?
I promised them,
but suddenly I'm going to go to Gyeongju.
I can't keep my promise.
So, I'm going to have to ask the landlady to do this.
So It wasn't that... I'm not surprised.
What?
No, it's nothing. I will go instead.
Thank you.
Since I may be bothering you when you're writing,
I have to go now.
What a cold heated person...
And when I'm back from Gyeongju
be sure to keep the promise to buy me an expensive meal, which you made before.
I'll wait in line very well then.
Hey, Choi In Seob, you act like this because you don't
want to pay the maintenance fee again, don't you?
I can hear even your breathing. Do you want to die?
If you continue to act like this, I'll unlock your door and go in.
This jerk, really!
That's weird, I'm sure I saw him.
Seon Ah
Choi In Seob, when did you come?
You are here early.
For real right? You will really buy meat for me?
Yes! Steak! Then see you later, Ahjumma.
Ahjumma said she would buy us steak so to wait here.
That kiddo, I told him I'm not an ahjumma.
Steak?
It'll be a high expense that I didn't plan...
And when I'm back from Gyeongju,
be sure to keep the promise to buy me an expensive meal, which you made before.
I'll wait in line very well then
Well, at least I paid my debt.
Who is it?
It's been a while, Landlady.
Hello.
This...
I told you.
That you don't know how scary I am.
Promissory Note
Money he borrowed 7 years ago is 30 million won ($30,000).
As you know well, the floating compound interest
that adds interest on top of interest is applied.
And in the past 7 years, you haven't repaid a penny.
Because of your reprehensible act,
I apply the highest interest rate in our company to it.
Your debt is enormous.
what do you want to do?
Will you win the lottery again? Or...
Will you start your part-time job again?
Think carefully.
If you're going to pay all this,
how many extra jobs do you have to do?
My hyungnim is going to stay here again.
Clean this place well before you leave.
I'm going.
Why isn't she coming?
Yeah.
What are you doing? Why aren't you coming?
I'm so hungry.
Sorry.
I was doing something.
I'll come right now, you guys can order something first.
She said that we can go there to eat first. Let's go.
Please, not our Seong Joon.
But, where was I going just now?
Hey. I am God.
God...
You want me to work for God?
Yeah, I do.
I guess you really don't understand.
I guess, I mean it's kind of difficult to explain this.
In a simple way, I gather people with special powers.
Making the world balanced is our job.
Then what do we do if we want to do our job?
Of course,
it is easier for us if we let people with special power like you work.
Also you need some records that you live doing nice things.
Well, either way, you passed.
Just perfectly passed.
That's why this god is allotting my precious time to you.
But what? You don't want to do it?
What about my brother?
Is there something wrong with my eyes or do I choose only these kinds of people?
Why as one are all the interviewees worried about others but not themselves?
Worry about yourself!
Ok, I understand
Your little brother won't remember anything about you in the future.
And if you accept my proposal,
with my consideration, the rest of his life,
I promise he'll have very fortunate life.
What do you think?
With this choice, it would be way better than being trapped
in that bottle for way more than a thousand years.
What are you doing? You've already done it many times.
Something changed, Hyungnim.
I mean, President.
What?
You used to look like a bulldozer that shows no mercy on others,
and you used to forge ahead with work. While looking at your doing such things,
I respected my hyungnim, no, my president. and followed you all this way.
At some point, you turned being worried,
cautious, and timid—
Hey you jerk, who's timid?
You acted like that earlier when you met the building owner.
If you had gotten dragged and almost died like that,
you just should've taken the building deed from her forcefully.
Are you going to accept interest again?
What if she wins the lotto again...
To be honest, I'm disappointed in you this time, Hyungnim,
no, President.
However, you jerk,
you think I am scared of her?
I have very severe acrophobia (fear of heights)!
Please!!!
What!
It's not easy.
I think I'm under some kind of spell.
But I still need to do it or else I could die.
Yeah let's do it! Let's take it away from her.
We'll again stand strong!
Are you alive now, Hyungnim?
Yes, Boss.
I'm really sorry for giving confusion.
I will continue working hard again tomorrow.
Thank you.
What exactly is the problem?
My dad had more loans.
Without me knowing...
It's over 2 billion won (2 million dollars).
I think I'm going to have to give up the building to the loan sharks.
If I have to rent one room anywhere, I need money for a deposit.
Seon Ah...
Even if it's for a moment, it's my fault for dreaming about something sweet.
I'm really alright.
This is just a small amount of gratitude. Please accept it.
Don't overdo it. Don't be a bother to others.
Of course. Please don't worry.
Please help me this one time. I'll make sure to pay you back for this favor.
Hello?
She cried sadly but it seems nothing happened to her.
However, why are you so worried about that woman?
It's because there's something that has been making me feel uneasy.
Don't let your guard down. Make sure to watch over her well.
Yes, I understand. Also...
We've taken care of Won Ho hyungnim, Hyungnim. I mean, President.
I don't need anything else,
just make sure to find the building deed.
After that, we go to court with the promissory note
and get it certified. Then it'll be finished.
You're finally back now, Hyungnim— I mean, Boss.
Hurry up! Hurry up and find the building deed!
- Yes, Hyungnim! - Yes!
Why isn't she picking up her phone?!
It's been a while since we reported to the police, but why aren't they here yet?
Apartment 202
Take a break.
Also, this person keeps calling you since earlier.
Call?
Apartment 202 11 Missed Calls
[Apartment 202]
Hello?
Why weren't you picking up?!
Hey, what's going on?
I'll contact you later.
Stop whatever you're doing!
Wait.
Where on earth did this wench hide the deed?
What are you doing right now, you gangster punks!
What? Gangster? Are you seriously crazy or something?
I'm just doing my own thing with my soon-to-be building.
This has nothing to deal with you!
How is this your building?! I told you I'm going to pay back the money!
When? How many years later?
I don't care anymore. I can't wait any longer, so—
I don't think she hid the building deed here.
She has been living on the rooftop all this time.
Should we go up there and search?
What are you guys doing?! Make sure you catch her!
- Yes, President! - Yes!
Go in!
Building deed!
Just what- What is going on?
Why— Why is that hidden there?
In case something might happen...
I have to protect this no matter what. If I didn't,
they might kick you out without returning your deposit.
What did you say?
Your phone keeps ringing, aren't you going to get the call?
It's OK.
Please pick up the phone, In Seob.
No one is answering...
I called the police before so they should be here soon.
We called a while ago. Why aren't they here yet?
Building Owner, he and you have lived as neighbors for a long time.
You think he would really kill you?
That guy would do such a thing.
Really?
There is the deed over there.
Bring it here.
What are you doing? Hurry and go inside.
Even at the end, being stubborn.
Go open the door for them.
Yes.
What's this?
It's magic, wait here.
Hey! Hey. Choi In Seob!
What's going on here?
Hyungnim, no, President.
No matter how hard I looked in every corner, there's no other way to get out.
It feels like a ghost casts a spell on us.
I'm a little scared.
That's what I'm saying!
I felt this weird vibe more than once too.
Room 301, aren't you going to get the building owner?
Let's follow him first.
What the heck is this?
I said it's not me!
Who are you guys all of a sudden?
Come here!
You've just been caught.
Promissory Note
Gangster...
What... gangster?
As you saw, it's like mutation happened to me.
If there is just a door, I can go anywhere.
I should have hidden till the end but the situation didn't allow that.
I'm sorry for this confusion.
No, it's OK,
Thank you.
I'll explain things to Ahjumma and Soo Na.
How are you going to explain?
That's what I'm saying.
First let's get back home, I'm sure everyone is in confusion.
OK.
I don't know what happened to us either.
I don't know, I don't know. Just go back home for today.
- Leave! - Yes.
I'm sure
we were in the bathroom.
I'm sure it was just a bathroom.
Stop it, you bastard!
I'm really about going crazy.
I'm sure it was a bathroom.
Over there it was just a bathroom.
I'm sure it was just a bathroom...
That idiot lost his mind.
My headache, my headache.
In this world, by words... by your mind...
there are so many things that you can't explain.
Just like how you're this way right now.
If you appear to her one more time,
I'll show you what we can't explain with words,
and make you experience all of that.
This is not a dream.
Chairman
His power is extraordinary.
Using his power is also extraordinary.
What do you want me to do?
The more I look at this, the more curious about this I get.
I'll go myself and ask.
Where did you say he lives?
♫ I'm not surprised anymore ♫
♫ As always, fate is ♫
♫ Never something on my side ♫
♫ It's becoming a distant memory ♫
♫ Even though I'm unable to find it ♫
♫ Oh just for my love, I'm changing ♫
♫ Oh just for my love, I'm born again ♫
♫ At a time when I should be hating this world, ♫
♫ I think of you and I smile ♫
Now he won't be bothering you again anymore.
I'm not sure
if I should accept your help again.
Why not?
Promissory Note
This is really my dad's signature.
Because of this money, someone may get hurt.
I'm not sure.
I think you've paid enough of your debt for the past six years.
You think so...
I did have a hard life.
Now stop worrying about people, but live for yourself.
You, building owner; can write what she wants and show it to me.
Thank you, Basement...
But why did you want start to write a novel?
I needed a place escape.
I needed a place to escape to from both my father's debts and his death
which came suddenly to the Kim Seon Ah of that time.
Without any respite, busy working every day
in just the brief time allowed to me,
I guess I wanted to feel happiness in that time.
That's why I started writing.
While waiting for the day coming sometime which would be my time.
For me, the place where I ran away to was the time I stopped.
Inside the time, I kept searching for something.
That's why I was obsessed with and holding onto those antique items.
That's how I was wasting my time.
To someone it could have been a precious time.
For me, it was meaningless.
♫ My night was filled only with your pretty face ♫
However thanks to you,
my stopped time started to mean something to me.
♫ My face was always dark, that's how dark my past was ♫
♫ I just hope you'll never know ♫
For making my lonely stopped time have meaning,
thank you.
♫ When I got nervous over the pieces that didn't fit into our shape at all ♫
♫ You softly touched me ♫
What did you do?
♫ And embraced me ♫
Thank you for being next to me, Basement.
♫ My world has stopped in front of you with a bright face ♫
♫ You stirred up my heart like you were dancing ♫
♫ In my complicated heart ♫
Did you go see Hwa Sook and Seong Joon?
♫ I was lost in the middle of a maze ♫
Hwa Sook?
Seong Joon?
♫ I was wandering, not able to exit ♫
Who are they?
♫ My last footsteps had stopped ♫
Thank you for being next to me, Basement.
Hwa Sook? Seong Joon?
Who are they?
But why couldn't she remember them?

Get the time stopper, then I'll give you that bracelet.
Before catching the time stopper, there's a girl.
Grab her first.
I think I have a lot to talk to her about.
The guy named God sent you...
Right?
