In Seob.
Go through the door over there first.
Father
I'll follow right away. Go ahead.
Do you think you can be running away forever?
Right.
So I'm not running away now and
I'm going to try my best.
What is such memory meaning to you, so you're trying to confront God?
I can't say.
I lost my memory and
when that memory surfaced again,
I had left behind many things more precious
than I thought.
Don't look at us pitifully
as if you've realized something by yourself.
That you chose the reaper's life was also your own decision.
But do you know this?
Before we became reapers,
we had the same abilities as those we are chasing when we existed.
Because of an undesirable power, whether we are destroyed or
we lose all of our memories and do our duty as grim reapers.
It's pitiful because we don't have no other choice but two.
It doesn't mean you're pitiful.
I am not curious.
Cut the talking about nonsense.
Okay.
Then now...
This will be the final mentoring.
Are you okay with that?
It's a little bit more different
than before.
Father!
Father, what is this?
This will be my last gift.
Don't hide from now on.
Do everything you want to do.
Be happy, all right?
Perhaps
is this denial?
Is that what you call that feeling?
Sunbae-nim, don't say...
Don't be weak.
You may end up like me if you're.
Throw away your feelings.
Last mentoring.
Don't be like me.
What exactly is it that you wanted to protect
to that extent?
In the end, this was your choice.
I'm telling you this for your own good.
If a reaper takes all the talent out of a capable person...
the body can't handle it and they swiftly perish forever. You know that?
Don't do something you may regret.
Even if his choice of your fate may have saved you,
do you know that it was choice
that he himself would cease to exist forever?
N-No, what are you trying to say?
This is the second gift that Dad gave. I'm sorry that I give you this too late.
I promise to buy this toy you like later.
It's fine.
No...
I know that you really like all these toys.
Don't hide from now on.
Do everything you want to do. Be happy.
Understand?
♫ Even if I can't find it with my faded memories ♫
Dad...
♫ Even if I can't find it with my faded memories ♫
Dad...
Dad! Dad! ♫ Oh just for my love ♫
♫ I'm changing ♫
♫ Oh just for my love, I've been born again ♫
♫ Instead of hating the world ♫
♫ I'm gonna think of you and smile ♫
No... wait a moment.
How can a human remember
his memories that God already erased?
What should we do?
What? What do you mean?
He's just a human now.
Are you doing this on purpose knowing what the outcome will be?
Just... think of it as God's considerate care.
It seems like a choice that is unlike you
What does a "choice like me" mean?
Huh?
Both this kid remembering Myung Woon and Myung Woon's memory coming back,
it's out of God's control.
The final choice wasn't made by me. It was his.
God is not perfect.
Also, even without you here, my head hurts a lot.
Then,
Are you saying that a mere human's will overtook God's power?
What are you doing right now?
What is it?
Why don't we remember anything?
Is our choice made by our free wills,
or by God's forcing us?
Why are you also being like this? Why?
Something...
I feel like I lost something very meaningful to me.
Alright. God is a very selfish being.
Right?
Well, what is he, so he destroys humans' lives as he pleases because he has some power...
and even completely wipes out their existence from the earth...
- Alsoㅡ - Alright, alright.
Also, he wipes out the memories of people with abilities and lets them work so much.
Are you satisfied now?
Is there no way to
gain back our memories?
Memories are pretty precious to humans, right?
However, to us, it's just something to block our path.
Honestly, Gods are afraid of people's memories.
Therefore, to prevent that scary and complicated thing,
we destroy the humans soul, erase their memories...
Well, we just choose that method.
Here, this is my answer to your question.
If you say the choice is made by God's forcing us, well then I have nothing more to say.
However...
That you drank this tea in the past was your choice.
Also, this time again, it will be your choice, too, right?
What are you going to do now?
Anyway, we solved one problem and now we have one last problem left.
What are you doing? Aren't you going to go quickly?!
I'll follow out your order.
You're putting me in a bad mood already in the morning.
Hey! Why are you hanging around in front of someone's house ever since early morning?
Did you come to beg for food?
Do you want to buy an item?
Hurry up and get lost. If you show up here again, I won't be nice.
Aigoo...
It's confining, isn't it?
A little bit.
However,
we have to keep staying here, right?
I'm sorry.
However, this is probably the safest place for the time being.
You don't have to be sorry.
It's much better than getting killed by weird people.
In Seob
In Seob!
Are you alright?
I'm better now.
Where are you right now?
Even if he retired, he is still God.
I think it's going to be hard to continue going and solving it ourselves.
I understand.
I'm going to go meet him myself.
How about we all do it ourselves?
Doesn't anyone want to do it?
That old man is not just an old man. He's called a retired god.
If we're bother him carelessly, and he becomes angry,
how are we going to face the consequences?
You said he retired. How can we not at least do that much?
How long are we going to just stay here beating a dead horse?
First, let's report it to the higher-up. He should say something.
Until he does, how about we wait calmly.
Aigoo, seriously. You're so impatient. All of you.
Why are you so talkative?
How come not one of you can do their job right?
One. There should properly be at least one. Isn't there?
Aigoo... it's pointless.
I'm here, Sunbae-nim.
I know you're in here, Sunbae.
If you don't open the door, I will break it down.
Seriously...
That's scared me!
Oh my goodness, you're so loud. There's a bell here. Can't you see it?
Why are you beating it up!?
What is this?
This is a bell? Why is it so small? You should've made it bigger.
Should I buy you a bigger one?
Hey! Didn't you come here because you needed to say something to me?
You scared me.
What's wrong with you? I'm just simply having a cup of tea with a sunbae I respect.
If you keep acting like that, I'm going to be disappointed.
Disappointed? Bull-crap.
Go home, I did something so they won't find you easily.
Here!
You should at least have some rice wine and then leave instead of tea.
It's nice. It also reminds me of the olden days.
Sunbae-nim said "God's considerate care".
It's suddenly bothering me a lot.
Did I say that?
Your "God's considerate care"
how far does it go?
What are you doing to me?!
I'm sorry, Sunbae-nim.
I've been getting interested in them lately.
They're probably home. No one will be in your way for a while so go finish up.
Yes, I understand.
- Yes. - Yes.
Are you sure this place is safe?
Since that's what Ahjussi said, as of right now, it should be fine.
Thanks, 101.
Well... it was nothing.
Ahjussi told me the reason all my memories were erased
was my choice.
This bracelet was the beginning of everything.
I don't remember anything.
So in the past, you were like them.
It doesn't matter if he was or was not the same as them.
In any case, he isn't like that now.
Alright.
It's probably not your fault.
Just like how my ability is neither
my father's or my fault.
Father? Whose father?
It's alright as long as someone remembers.
It's alright as long as I remember my father.
But still
because of my dad, I can remember.
I'm envious of you, who remembers something that precious.
However, I willingly erased my precious memories myself.
Why did I do that?
It's an honor to finally meet you,
Sunbae-nim.
However,
Is your last hiding place here?
I would like you to let us go quietly.
I'll be thankful if you follow us without any troubles.
You know that I can't do that.
This is as far as my respect for you goes.
Is this what you are doing?
This time I too borrowed some time ability and came.
This is what God was talking about, a big headache.
My boss said to just bring it,
but within your capacity for time, your relationship is too dangerous.
In this case, I think it's best to just to make her vanish from here.
Please don't resent us too much.
Oh...
I see it's your choice.
I'm sorry, Sunbae-nim.
However, I also need to protect my time.
I suppose so.
But that's not the most important.
If you don't want to see your people all vanish, I suggest you hurry and go now.
Joon Woo...
What's this now?
Didn't you tell me that "God's considerate care" was bothering you the most recently?
Yes...
Humans, themselves, don't need our consideration.
We just need to make them maintain their equilibrium.
Will you listen once to what I have to say?
Yes...
Why I erased Joon Woo's memory and
why I took care of the bracelet until Joon Woo and that young lady met again.
Lastly letting them stay in this time.
This is exactly in my code of conduct as "God's considerate care."
That bracelet was a link of fate which was going to make them meet again.
It's also a Pandora's box that makes them face the terrible memories of the past.
Whether they would face their memories is another choice for them.
Seon Ah...
♫ You softly touched me and embraced me ♫
♫ My world has stopped in front of you with a bright face ♫
I sometimes wish time wouldn't flow on.
Those things come into my mind.
Then those drawings will stay beautiful.
♫ I was lost in the middle of a maze ♫
♫ I was wandering, not able to exit ♫
But if time was stopped,
you would be alone inside that time.
And without memory to treasure being together, don't you think
it would be sad?
I don't think the world would be a fun place.
True, it would be like that.
♫ Even the fluttering feeling had calmed down ♫
This bracelet was given by my grandmother after her death.
When I was young, my grandmother used to tell me a story
What is fun about this bracelet is that there is a legend inside.
A legend?
This bracelet would contain the memory of its chosen humans' fate forever.
No matter how many years have past, eternally.
It's romantic huh.
♫ My world has stopped in front of you ♫
If that fate turns into a bad thing, it would be big deal.
♫ You stirred up my heart ♫
♫ In my complicated heart ♫
Our fate will be filled with happy memories.
Like at this moment.
♫ I was wandering, not able to exit ♫
♫ My last footsteps had stopped ♫
♫ I wonder where you are right now ♫
♫ I didn't need anything before ♫
♫ But now I'm getting greedy ♫
♫ In my complicated heart ♫
♫ That I didn't really know well ♫
♫ I was standing in the middle of a maze ♫
♫ I was lingering, not able to go further ♫
♫ 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 ♫
Joon Woo, that kid, was a very excellent grim reaper.
He was the one I treasured most among my grim reapers.
You worked hard,
So that was why I did that?
The kid falling in love with a human, I disapproved very much.
But I never knew how cruel the power of destiny would be.
Even as God, I didn't know then what would happen.
She doesn't know I'm a grim reaper.
Also she doesn't have a special power.
It's just having relationship between person to person.
Is there something wrong with it?
Do you think I made you into a grim reaper to fall in love?
Wake up, kid. Feelings are a luxury for grim reapers.
Who said I wanted to be a grim reaper?
Everything was your choice, done by you!
Just because I love a human,
what exactly is the problem to you, God?!
What if that human you love has a special power,
what are you going to do then?!
Being a grim reaper is like that.
There may be a moment where you must
make someone you love vanish with your own two hands.
If that moment arose, can you do such a thing?
Can you make the person you love vanish with your own hands!?
A grim reaper in this human world can't get entangled.
Don't get in too deep in emotional feelings, huh.
There may be a moment where you must
make someone you love vanish with your own two hands.
Can you make someone you love vanish with your own hands?
No, you can't, Sunbae-nim.
Don't stop me.
What are you doing!?
Please wait... I knew everything.
I'm telling you I knew this lady has the power to stop time
So please give one last chance.
This lady didn't use her power of stopping time in the wrong way.
It's not by her choice that she has this power.
Whether she wanted it or not, she still has power.
For any reason, if she used her power, it would be her choice.
And that choice would come with consequences.
It's her choice and responsibility.
Cutting all these kinds of fates and mediating conflicts,
is my job in this time! So is your job in your time!
Please give one last chance!
Please give her one last chance. If you do, she'll never use her power again.
Make me vanish instead.
I'll absorb her power, so make me vanish instead!
You're an idiot. I'm disappointed in you.
Joon Woo, don't be tormented because of me.
I have resentment towards you.
I being a grim reaper,
I'm feeling resentment too.
So right now, just take me away.
There is no chance she, who vanished, would be reincarnated.
Without her, my eternal life means nothing.
You need to make him vanish right now as a punishment for his harming his colleagues.
Wait outside for a moment.
You want to abandon being a grim reaper.
You harmed your colleagues but I can't make you vanish.
You always do whatever you want.
Killing someone,
saving someone also.
In the beginning, did I really have a choice?
Do whatever you wish.
In return, this hellish memory
erase it please.
You're seeking to have your memory erased...
Living with memories, I cannot go on.
A human is memory huh...
What's the destiny and what's the memory...
I, who had lived eternally, had no meanings on them.
Even I as God; I couldn't control those two's destiny.
That bracelet has her eternal fate intertwined.
That's how she could be reincarnated.
That bracelet also has their happy memories and
all sad memories together.
Knowing the truth, I wanted to do the right thing for my mistake.
At that kid's request, I erased his memory and waited together with him.
Until the lady, love of his life, returned.
I wanted to reunite them together.
If I lent him my power of stopping time, inside the time stopped,
I thought they would meet once again.
Then what about the bracelet?
I even don't know where it had come from, since it's outside our powers.
Because of that they could meet sooner.
But contrarily, they must face their past pain too.
That's why I tried to hide that bracelet.
Yes...
I understand the whole situation.
However, Sunbae-nim, my question is about the meaning of your consideration.
Sunbae has broken the rules.
For sure you have made a mistake.
Those two who were out of the God's providence...
Those two should be destroyed.
You crossed over something you shouldn't have done.
You dare to defy God's power, you pitifully mere human!
Sunbae-nim.
I'll be seeing you a little later. Today for now, stop at this point.
Can you give a little more time to them?
Sunbae, are you going to be like this to the end?
For today, I'll leave for a short time.
However, you can't stop me from making them removed.
You know well.
What are you doing? Get up.
Indeed, what have I gotten to know in the passing time?
♫ How did this happen again? ♫
Again the time back, her warmth and aura..
♫ In just one moment, everything froze ♫
Becoming her own scent...
She was able to come back to me again.
♫ It's over you, breaking the silence ♫
Also...
The reason I'm still only watching her over there...
♫ We try to act calm, like nothing happened ♫
My time is still...
Pointing at her over there.
♫ But it's something either of us want to do ♫
♫ It's over you, words that are the opposite of what I mean ♫
♫ It's over you, maybe it's because it's you ♫
♫ Words that are sharper and digging deeper, that hurt me ♫
Joon Woo...
♫ Words that are sharper and digging deeper, that hurt me ♫
OK...
Your memory came back?

[When Time Stopped] ♫ Wherever you are, so you can find me ♫
The memory of humans, God's considerate care...
♫ Please stop the time, our bright night ♫
Even the restraint of destiny...
All of them...
But the ability of those two and the bracelet...
must be dangerous enough to mess up the world.
♫ You are my all ♫
Choice is always followed by responsibility as a consequence.
Whether it's made by your own choice or someone else's choice.
I'll never let it slide when someone breaks a rule.
I'm going to make them vanish.
