[female singer] ♪ A little different

♪ I'm looking for that vintage fling ♪

Your whiskey neat ♪

♪ And forevermore… ♪

That man over there,
what does he do for a living?

He's a doctor.
The one next to him is an architect.

The Super Black, is he around?

I don't think he's here yet.

[sighs]

-Hello.
-[gasps] Oh hello!

Please make me look as good as you can.

-Don't worry.
-[chuckles]

-I'll see you later.
-Sure. [chuckles]

Goddess.

Wow.

Even with that mask on,
you look absolutely radiant.

[chuckles]

I appreciate it.

♪ And I kept on looking ♪

-♪ But everyone's such a bore ♪
-[chuckles]

[theme music playing]

[Hye-seung] Masks allow everyone
to be free.

Lies and desires

all become the truth

behind the single layer of a mask.

However,

if I know your secret,

the game begins.

[theme music continues playing]

[music fades out]

Professor Seo, I'm counting on you.

You have to ace this.

This project is enough
for three grad students' scholarships.

You realize how difficult it is
for our students, don't you?

I need it
for my research performance report, okay?

Professor Seo.

-She didn't mind taking on the project?
-[professor] Of course!

As soon as I brought it up, she thanked me
for giving her the opportunity.

She said she would do her best.
So you don't need to worry. [chuckles]

All right, then.

[Yoo-hui sighs]

Not planning on using your looks
as a defense, are you?

It's more like,
"Make your enemy question their judgement

before unleashing the decisive blow."

Basic battle strategy.

Maybe you should take it easy.
Leave something for me too.

Even if I take it easy,

it's only right for the defendant to lose

since they're the ones
who stole the money.

And isn't it our job to stop that?
What's only right. Hmm?

[opera music playing]

Have a drink.
I heard you guys were going to some party.

-You guys going too?
-Well, if I don't go to it, then who will?

-Me. And him.
-I haven't decided yet.

Let's just party for a day.
It's a perk of being single.

I heard hot girls are coming.

-He couldn't come if he wanted to.
-[chuckles]

-I'm jealous.
-Hey.

Ms. Choi told me that I had to bring you.
So I promised her you were coming.

-Wanna know why?
-Why?

We're basically your sidekicks.

We're handsome plus ones!

[chuckles]

[Ho-chan] Hey, yeah, that's true.

We aren't high status enough.
We need you.

-You're coming, right?
-[inhales deeply]

[sighs]

-I don't know. Just drink.
-Okay.

-Okay.
-[all together] Cheers!

[Yeong-seo] So, you got
the adjunct professor position

thanks to Jin Yoo-hui?
And you're working on her project too?

[scoffs] Wow, she is so sneaky!

Wow! So she shuts you up
just like that, huh?

It's honestly a cheap, dirty shot.

[sighs] But I can't refuse.

That's what I'm saying!

She did it on purpose.

That despicable woman.
She is tightening her leash on you.

Mom?

Oh, you're back?

What's going on?

Don't worry about it, okay?

Min-ji's back. Let's talk later, okay?

-Wait, Hye-seung.
-Yeah?

I heard she's having a hard time lately.

She doesn't talk much at school,
and she can't seem to focus in class.

You should have a talk with her, yeah?

Hmm.

[phone line ends]

[gentle music playing]

I was planning on going off campus.

So why here?

Just 'cause.

Well, this is Mommy's home turf,
so I'm your guide today.

-[girl] Hello, Professor.
-Hello.

Modern fiction…

Oh here, here. Oh here.

Hey, Min-ji.

Okay, so you see
that guy over there in white?

He's totally your type.

[both chuckle]

Mom, you really teach here?

Of course. And again next semester.

For this time, I'm going back and forth
to help with the professor's project.

-Mom, stand here.
-Right here?

-How's this?
-Yeah.

What? You want to play "school"?

Mom, I'm proud of you, you know.

I'm embarrassed.

I'm sorry, Mom.

For what?

For my grades falling so much.

I should have studied hard,
but I just couldn't study.

I wanted to work hard for you,
but I couldn't stop thinking about Dad.

That's why I wanted to come here.

To get motivated to study again.

[exhales]

When did my daughter
get to be so grown-up?

[exhales]

I'm hungry.

Oh yeah?

Okay, what should we eat?

[inhales]

The faculty dining hall?

The dining hall?

Are all these people professors?

They're professors,
staff members, and grad students.

You're so impressive, Mom.

I'm not impressive.
I'm still just an adjunct.

I need the official title
to be a real professor.

-Still, it's impressive. You're awesome.
-Well, I'm good at what I do.

[both chuckle]

-Oh, Professor Seo.
-Oh hello.

Your daughter?

[chuckles]

My supervising professor.
Yes, this is Min-ji.

Hello sir, I'm Kang Min-ji.

Oh yeah? [chuckles]

-Please, go ahead and eat.
-Sure.

Well, you take after
your mother's good looks.

-[chuckles]
-What grade are you in?

-Seventh grade.
-[gasps]

That's the scariest grade.

[both chuckle]

Well, try not to act out too much.

You need to study hard
so you can be like your mother.

[chuckles] Okay.

[professor] Yeah.

Oh, Professor Seo.

By the way,

they seemed really happy when I told them
that you are taking on the project.

I didn't realize you had a history
with that company.

Sir, could we talk about this later?

They said your husband used to work there.

[chuckles] Oh man.

Also… [inhales]

…that lawyer Jin Yoo-hui sure is loyal.

I mean, not everyone
would take care of the family

of a supervisor who's passed away.

[Hye-seung] Min-ji.

[breathing heavily]

Min-ji!

[grunts] Mom!
Why was he talking about that woman?

Did you become a professor because of her?

Of all people,
you had to get a handout from her?

It's not like that, Min-ji.

Then what is it like?

Don't you have any pride?

It's because I have a plan too, Min-ji.

What plan?

What plan involves getting help
from the woman who killed Dad?

[sobbing]

-Min-ji.
-I don't care anymore!

Everything about this sucks!

Why should I study,
and why should I go to college?

So that I can live
a pathetic life like you?

This is the worst!

Min-ji!

With the party coming up,

there's something important
I want everyone to be aware of.

Because this is going
to be a secret party,

we have to be extra careful
with the security.

If any word gets out,

all of our female members

will only pay attention
to the Super Black Level Member.

There can't be any leaks.

Understood?

[all together] Yes, ma'am.

[dramatic music playing]

[Yoo-hui] What kind
of Black Level Members will be there?

[Ji-sun] Mostly men with assets
of several hundred billion won.

Of course, in terms of assets or looks,

he'll be the best of them all.

How am I supposed
to recognize him, though?

We're going to be handing out IDs
like name tags.

So you can tell me his ID then?

I'm sorry.

I can't do that.
That's highly confidential.

It's risky.

[sniffles]

So, I guess what I had given you last time
wasn't enough for you?

[dramatic sting]

If Ms. Choi were to find out,
I'm sure she'd think it was.

Here.

[dramatic music playing]

If everything goes well,
I'll take care of you.

Do you think I'll stop
at a simple designer bag?

[exhales]

[music building]

[music ends abruptly]

[suspenseful music playing]

JIN YOO-HUI
JUNG MI-JIN

[Ae-ran] I can get rid
of the restrictions.

Just support my daughter.

Congressman Son Pil-young has really

taken a liking to Mi-jin.

She's like a daughter.

I am Congressman Son Pil-young's
illegitimate daughter.

I'm handing you a knife with this picture.

[knocks on door]

[door opens]

So, I see that you've narrowed it down
to these two women?

Clearly, Jung Mi-jin is more qualified.

[Yoo-sun] Despite her extensive education,

she seems to lack the skills
to charm her partner.

She's gonna need more coaching
if she's to be on par with Jin Yoo-hui.

Jin Yoo-hui is clearly attractive.

And certainly,
that's one of the most important factors

in being matched
with a Black Level Member.

But she's too headstrong.

Which, I have to say, it does concern me.

Jin Yoo-hui and Seo Hye-seung.
They know each other, don't they?

You were aware of their history?

It's true they've met before.

Seo Hye-seung's husband used to work
at the same company as Jin Yoo-hui.

Bring me both of their member profiles.

[shower water trickling]

[gentle music playing]

JIN YOO-HUI

CONTACT
JIN YOO-HUI

Why hasn't he gone
on any blind dates all this time?

I'm working very hard
to pick someone special for him.

[Yong-hwan] What's taking you so long?

[scoffs] It's not just anyone.
It's your daughter-in-law.

Doesn't that warrant
the extra effort, dear?

So this was in my room.

Tell him to check it out.

He can see for himself.

He can go and pick out a woman he likes.

[Yoo-sun] But this is an event
for people looking to remarry.

Plenty of unmarried women
will be there too, no?

All of the rich guys
are going to be invited.

You think only moms will show up?

It's not that I didn't consider it,

but Professor Cha
has never been interested

in these types of events.

[Yong-hwan] When are you going
to give me a grandchild?

Everyone else has pictures and videos
of their grandchildren on their phones.

They're showing them to everyone
to brag about it.

[Yoo-sun] What's the rush, dear?

I'm sure Professor Cha
will take care of it.

I'll go to that party.

[Yong-hwan] Hmm?

When is it?

[Yong-hwan] Clear your schedule for a day.

There's somewhere I want to go with you.

You should know where our land is,

and you should know
where our buildings are.

After all, who knows when I'll die?

Please don't say that.

[Yong-hwan] So get married already.

Let me see the face of the grandchild
who will inherit it before I die.

[gentle piano music playing]

INCOMING CALL

[cell phone vibrating]

Yes?

[Min-ji] Is this Ms. Jin Yoo-hui?

Speaking. Who's this?

I'm Mr. Kang Nam-sik's daughter.

-[Yoo-hui] Why are you calling?
-Can we meet right now?

I have something to tell you.
Come out of your building.

If you don't come out, I'll come in.

Is there really any reason for us to meet?

Even if you don't have one, I do.

What?

If you don't come out,
I'll come back tomorrow.

And the day after that.

I'll come back every day to protest.

What do you think
I'm gonna write on my sign?

Okay, fine.

[horn honks]

That you?

Get out.

Okay, what did you want to say?

Don't mess with my mom.

-Hmm?
-Don't hang around my mom

because of that project or whatever.

Your father always spoke well of you.
Said you were brave.

But you're not brave,
you're just reckless.

Don't you dare talk about my father!

[sucks teeth]

Listen here.

Your father was a worthless criminal
who threatened and raped me to cover up…

[dramatic sting]

…his corruption.

Don't insult my dad.
He wasn't that kind of person!

Do you want to hear more about it?

About what your father did to me before?

[dramatic sting]

[dramatic music playing]

Do you want to know

exactly what he did to my body?

You can tell your mom

that I won't let it slide
if she keeps pulling this stuff.

[car door opens, shuts]

Take a cab home.

[gentle music playing]

[car door shuts, engine turns over]

[sobbing]

No…

No…

[sobbing]

Mom…

[cell phone vibrating]

What is it now?

-What are you trying to do?
-What?

Can you do a better job
of raising your daughter?

You're not making any sense.

Your daughter came all the way
to my workplace to threaten me today.

Where is Min-ji now?

I swear,
if you did anything to my daughter!

I sent her home in one piece today,

but from now on,
you better keep an eye on her.

I'm warning you.

If I get angry, who knows what I'll do.

What's that supposed to mean?

[line ends]

[breathing shakily] Hello?

[tense, dramatic music playing]

Min-ji… [exhales]

MY LOVELY DAUGHTER

-[phone line ringing]
-[breathing shakily]

Min-ji! [breathing heavily]

Min-ji?

Min-ji!

[breathing shakily]

-[Yeong-seo] She's not here?
-No, no!

-So-eun doesn't know where she is either.
-[breathing heavily]

MY LOVELY DAUGHTER

[operator] The person
you're trying to reach is not available…

What about her grandmother?

[exhales]

Mom, is Min-ji with you?

[music ends abruptly]

[sighs]

RISING PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE

SON PIL-YOUNG!
APPROVAL RATING THROUGH THE ROOF!

[dramatic music playing]

[young Yoo-hui] Hey, Dad.

It's me, Yoo-hui.

I'm your daughter.

[scoffs]

What are you talking about?
I don't have a daughter like you.

Kim Eun-seon, remember?

You let my mom win the trial.

That's why she said
she started liking you.

You have to remember.

I'm not your father.

But it's true. You are my real father.

No, I'm not. Now go away.

[door opens]

Honey.

Who is this?

Uh, I don't know.
She was wandering around.

Here. Take a cab and get yourself home.
Your parents must be waiting.

Here, go on.

Get inside.

[exhales]

I heard that you met Ms. Choi.
How did it go?

What can I say? She's very meticulous.

She didn't accept the offer right away.

Just give it time.

The more desire a person has,

the weaker they are
when faced with profit.

That's right.

Like how you've gotten here
by not giving in to the temptation

to run in presidential elections.
Instead, you chose to wait patiently.

[chuckles]

How is your wife doing?

[sighs] She's okay.

When her condition worsens,
I bring her back, again and again.

That must be hard for you both.

When would be a good time
to run for president?

What's the VIP say?

The VIP would like
for you to run right now.

Realistically,
you should be campaigning by next month.

[sucks teeth, sighs]

Ms. Go,

take good care of our VIP.

[chuckles]

-Eat some more.
-Okay.

[gentle music playing]

[bus brakes hiss]

-[cell phone vibrating]
-[exhales]

[breathing heavily]

Did you find Min-ji?

[exhales]

Jamsu Bridge?

[whimpers]

[breathing heavily]

Just tell me, is Min-ji okay?

[panting]

Excuse me.

[gasps] Min-ji!

[whimpering]

You okay?

[officer] You should probably take her
to the hospital. She said she fell.

[Hye-seung groans]

Thank you so much.

[officer] Of course.

Oh gosh…

[exhales]

Tell me what happened to you, huh?

Did that woman do this to you?

Why on earth would you go to see her?

I was scared that something bad

would happen to you too.

[sniffles]

I just wanted to

tell that woman that my dad
wasn't that kind of person.

That no matter what she said about him,

that I knew that he was truly a good man.

But that woman… [gasps]

I still trust Dad.

Dad wasn't that kind of person, right?

-[Hye-seung breathing heavily]
-[Min-ji sniffles]

Of course not.

Your dad was not like that.

That lady was just lying to you.

[sobbing]

[woman] Ugh, my poor baby.

Why did you have to go see her
in the first place?

That vicious woman.

Min-ji.

If you act like this,

you'll only make things harder
on yourself.

[exhales]

[sighs]

You see that?
What happened to your daughter?

How could you,

with a woman like that?

[exhales]

[exhales]

[cell phone vibrating]

INCOMING CALL
MANAGER HWANG SUNG-HUI

Yes, hello?

[exhales] A party?

Yes. It's going to be
a secret masquerade event

exclusively for our higher-level members.

But I was able to pull some strings
to get you an invitation too.

I'm not qualified. It's okay.

Of course you don't actually qualify,

but if you're interested
in attending the event,

I'll put in a good word and get you in.

I don't really…

Will…

Jin Yoo-hui be there?

Ms. Jin Yoo-hui?

Yes, I believe she'll be attending too.

Okay.

I'll go.

All right, then.
I'll send you the invitation.

[upbeat music playing]

-[Hyung-ju] Hey, this is pretty realistic.
-[man] Hmm.

[Hyung-ju] And super detailed.
Nicely made.

Huh.

-[knife whooshes]
-I have a sword.

Whoa.

Wait, where is it? I just…

-[monster growls]
-[grunts]

-[monster growls]
-Whoa, whoa!

-Oh! Whoa! Whoa!
-[man chuckles]

Ah! Ah

-[Hyung-ju chuckles]
-Wait, wait, wait, wait.

-Turn it off, turn it off. You died.
-[Hyung-ju exhales]

Whoa. [groans]

That feels so realistic.

Ah. Hey,
shouldn't the sword be a bit longer?

With a monster that huge,

do you think someone who's not athletic
can even attack at all?

Dude, this is gonna be stuck
in development forever.

Did you know,
there are companies in the States

that are developing technology
so you can play with your eye movements?

If we can possibly buy out
one of those start-ups,

it'll be much faster.

-Yeah?
-Yeah.

Then why don't you buy them, huh?

Huh?

-I'm out.
-Where are you going?

[Hyung-ju sighs]

-I have to wear two masks today.
-Wait, wha--

Hey, clean up. And figure this out.

-Wh… what? Figure out what?
-You can do it.

-You can do it!
-Come on, man!

-See ya.
-Hyung-ju, wait!

[suspenseful music playing]

Hello. Yes, ma'am.

[Yeong-seo] What are you gonna do
about that woman?

I'm going to arrange a finale so grand,
she can never show her face again.

[Ji-sun] That must be Mr. Zeus.

♪ So hard to find

[Sung-hui] What?

I want you to switch the IDs
for Zeus and Hermes.

Word has probably already spread
that Zeus is a Super Black Member.

So switch them around.

Cha Seok-jin will be Zeus.

[scoffs]

Yes, ma'am.

But then… [groans]

…who is this person Cha Seok-jin?

He's a Black Level member
I'm managing personally.

If you do this, though,

all the female members
will immediately go to Zeus.

I want to see
how Cha Seok-jin handles himself

with women.

[gentle music playing]

Hello there.

-Mr. Zeus?
-Yes.

Do you happen to like tonight's wine?

Of course.

[dramatic music playing]

Hey, he's here. [snaps fingers]

Over here.

Oh. I think they're starting.

[music building]

[music ends abruptly]

I am Gaia, Choi Yoo-sun.

Just as the gods
have created other gods before

at the very beginning of time.

Tonight, these masks will grant you
a new primal freedom.

Your secret, delicate selves

free to explore
to your own hearts content.

To discover each other's charms
to your own heart's content.

And to fall in love
to your own heart's content.

Now I would like
to welcome you all to the paradise

of the gods.

-[all applauding]

[all cheering]

[Jin-su] Red.

There's no way.

Hello, goddess.

Sorry.

Hey, come on.

-[Jin-su] It's not easy, man.
-[Hyung-ju] You need to be more gentle.

You try it.

-Watch and learn.
-[Ho-chan] Nice.

Would you like to dance with me?

Next time.

Would you like…

[chuckles]

[chuckling continues]

Oh! [chuckles]

[shrieks, chuckles]

Looks like you're a lonely hunter.

Oh, I've only ever hunted online,

so this is a serious reality check
for me. [chuckles]

I can help you out.

[Yoo-sun] If a person
who was always in the spotlight

is suddenly hidden behind a mask

in a place where no one knows
who they truly are,

they'll inevitably
become awkward and lonely.

Anyone who approaches them with kindness
in a moment like that will certainly be

very difficult to forget.

[upbeat dance music continues]

[cell phone vibrates]

YOUNG-SEO: IS SHE THERE?

I DON'T KNOW, I'M LOOKING FOR HER

Come on, we should dance too.

-Me dance?
-Yeah. [chuckles]

-I really wish I could.
-[Jae-hui] Oh, come on. Just try it.

[cheering]

Are you all right?

[dramatic sting]

[music ends]

[suspenseful music playing]

You're really quite the dancer.

It's lonely drinking alone.

-Where are you? I can come to you.
-[scoffs]

No. It's fine.

Jun-ho's not taking my calls.

It's my first time calling him.

Why wouldn't he pick up?

I don't know.
Maybe 'cause he's with his dad.

I'm waiting, but he's not calling back.

He wouldn't be with Hyung-ju.
I think Hyung-ju went to that Rex party.

-Rex?
-Yeah. He became a member a while ago.

I think he's going
with Jin-su and Ho-chan.

Sounds like he's having fun.

So he's trying to remarry?

Mmm. I heard his mother
is really pushing him to do it.

Oh yeah?

Am I making things worse?

[chuckles] No.

Why should I care?
It has nothing to do with me.

I'm getting sleepy. I should go to bed.

Yeah, get some rest.

how to hold a cue stick too?

-I'm having a hard time.
-[Seok-jin] Sure, come over here.

-Come on.
-[Yoo-hui sighs]

-[Seok-jin] Put your left hand like this.
-[Jae-hui] Like this?

-Hey, I'll be right back.
-I need a drink.

I saw you down there.
You seemed like a good dancer.

Were you in the entertainment industry?

A lawyer.

Oh, you're a lawyer. That's nice.

Good time for the future
of South Korean law.

So what firm are you at?

If you really want to know,

you're going to
have to ask my manager for that.

-[Seok-jin] Okay.
-[indistinct chatter]

You know, when we were dancing,
it felt so good.

Did you feel anything special?

Uh, feel? [chuckles nervously]

-Power. P-O-W-E-R, power.
-[chuckles nervously]

Talking to you, Selena,
I just want to take it off.

Oh, I mean my mask.

[chuckles nervously]

-You must work out a lot. [chuckles]
-Oh, you scared me.

-Wanna feel this side too? [chuckles]
-Ah.

Perfect. Let's try one more.

[Yoo-hui] Oh.

-Here.
-[chuckles]

-Oh, thank you.
-[Seok-jin] Don't mention it.

It seems like you're much more
than just a good dancer.

Are you in the industry, or…

Oh. [chuckles]

-I'm not in that kind of field.
-Then what do you actually do?

We should go.

[exhales] It's kind of hot in here.

Mr. Zeus, it's your turn.

[Seok-jin] Oh yes, one moment.

Mr. Hermes?

Yeah?

Another drink?

[exhales]

[exhales]

[suspenseful music playing]

I think it's cold enough in here.

I'm a lawyer.

A lawyer?

Impressive.

I'll make sure to call you
if I'm ever in trouble.

You should.

Mmm.

Since you're in business,
you must get sued quite a bit.

Business?

Just seemed like a businessman.

[scoffs] I'm not.

Okay. [chuckles]

I'm not a businessman.

Ah.

Well, it is a masquerade, after all.

It would ruin the fun
to find out too much.

The less you know someone…

the more enticing they seem.

I should be going now.

Wait a minute.

You've been acting strange.

Why have you been so interested in me?

I don't know.

I'm just here trying to enjoy this party.

I guess you know who Zeus is too, huh?

[scoffs] Are you jealous of me?

[scoffs]

Is that why you were making such a scene?

So I take it he must be the best
of the Super Black Members here tonight.

[chuckles] That makes sense.

That's why you were acting like a moth
drawn to a flame.

And what's so special about you

that you had to follow us
all the way here?

Mr. Zeus hasn't even bothered
to glance in your direction.

Sounds like you've got it all wrong.

What I'm interested in isn't Mr. Zeus.

Best of luck to you.

Wait, who are you?

[door opens]

[Selena breathing heavily]

[Selena moans, chuckles]

-All right. [chuckles]
-[gasps]

-Here, come here. Oh!
-Oh my God. Pull it up.

Oh my God. What if they see me? Oh my…

-That way. Let's go! Here.
-Hurry!

[Hyung-ju] It's so uncomfortable.

[pop music playing]

I'm glad someone else finds
these masks uncomfortable as well.

Oh. I guess I'm just not used to it.
It feels really awkward.

Uh, Mr. Zeus,

it looked like you were
pretty popular with the women back there.

I know, right?

Turns out they actually like me better
behind the mask.

Now that I'm looking at you,

I get the sense we might be cut
from the same cloth.

Perhaps we have a lot in common.

Think so?

If we get the chance,

I think we should hang out
outside of here too

without the masks.

Why not?

Must be fate, right?

Yeah. [chuckles]

-Mr. Zeus--
-Uh, excuse me.

Oh.

-[cell phone vibrates]
-I'm sorry.

[inhales]

You look lonely, priestess.

What do you do for work, Ms. Athena?

I teach children.

And I read books.

Books are great.

A job where you read? I envy you.

What do you do, Mr. Hermes?

Uh, well…

Mmm. I play games,

and I guess
I watch people make games. Yeah.

I should be jealous.

I really need to read more books.
What are you reading lately?

Well, there's "Heungbu and Nolbu."
"Kongjwi and Patjwi."

What about "Chunhyangjeon"?

There's a lot you can learn
from the classics.

Absolutely. They have sayings like,

"Don't bite off more than you can chew."
"Loyalty always pays you back."

The classics are the origin
of storytelling.

Human greed, schemes, conflict,

along with stories of heroes
and rags-to-riches.

You're right.

I think games are especially interesting

because they excite primal instincts,

such as heroism, greed, and competition.

You seem to know a lot about this.

Do you write stories for a living?

No, I majored in mythology.

Oh, mythology.

Mr. Hermes, I was looking for you.

Oh yes.

Tell me what you two were talking about.

We were talking about the relationship
between storytelling, mythology and games.

Ms. Athena majored
in mythology, apparently.

[Mi-jin] A very important topic.

The gaming business will only become
more and more important from now on.

Gaming is very closely related
to the new industrial revolution.

You're very interested in games.

I'll have one of these, please.

[Mi-jin] I did a few semesters
of related research at Harvard.

My supervising professor, Scott Gerald,
is an authority in the field.

So, uh, did you study mythology
in Europe, Ms. Athena?

Oh no. I've actually never been abroad.

[scoffs] Uh…

I thought you majored
in Greek and Roman mythology.

What's your department?

Korean Lit.

Well, uh,
I've never studied abroad either.

I guess we're buddies. [chuckles]

-Mr. Hermes?
-Yeah?

-Cheers.
-Sure. Cheers.

Ms. Athena.

You know,

you remind me a lot of someone
I used to know. Especially your voice.

Is that the best pickup line you've got?

[exhales]

Sorry to disappoint.

But I really did think so,
from the moment I saw you.

But she's married now
and has a good life.

Now that you say that,
it reminds me of my ex-boyfriend.

He left suddenly to study abroad.

I felt so betrayed by him.

Even at the end
he should have said goodbye.

I'm so sorry. Are you--

[Yoo-hui] Mr. Zeus.

What are you doing here?

[Seok-jin] Oh hey.

We were just talking.

Why don't we finish our talk?

Sure. Why not?

-[Yoo-hui grunts]
-Ooh. Are you all right?

[dramatic music playing]

[Seok-jin] Take my hand.

Thank you.

-[Selena] Do you want a drink?
-[Jin-su] Sure.

[music fades out]

[bell rings]

So, did everyone have a good time?

Happy to hear it.

And did you find anyone
who caught your attention?

It must be dreadfully uncomfortable
to keep your masks on.

So now, if you would please,

we will proceed with the final event
of tonight's masquerade.

When I call each of you by your name,

please take off your mask

and reveal

your face.

[all applauding]

After the party ends,
you can find the person you liked

on the app that we'll text you a link for.

Now, when you hear your name,

please stand up
and briefly introduce yourself.

The first person I will call is

Mr. Eros.

That's me.

Hello. What a beautiful night.

I'm a dermatologist
working in Cheongdam-dong.

If you have any concerns about your skin,

feel free to drop by.
Have a great evening.

-Whoo!
-[all applauding]

Next up, Ms. Nike.

Good evening, everyone.
I'm working as a local news anchor.

-Nice to meet you all.
-That's her.

[all applauding]

Mr. Poseidon.

-Hello there. I run an accounting firm.
-[gasps]

Thank you.

[scattered applauding]

Mr. Dionysus.

Whoo!

Hello.

I'm a lawyer.

My door is open to anyone who needs it.
Thank you.

The queen of the goddesses, Ms. Hera.

[dramatic music playing]

[Mi-jin] Hello.

I'm working as a college professor.

[all applauding]

She might be the true goddess
of beauty in real life,

Ms. Aphrodite.

Hello, everyone. I'm a lawyer
and part of a legal team.

Thank you very much.

[all applauding]

Next, Ms. Selena.

Ms. Selena?

Please take off your mask.

I, uh, I think… [inhales]

I'll take off my mask
a little bit later.

[Sung-hui] Oh.

Do you need some time to prepare yourself?

You'll still need
to take it off eventually, but…

we can delay your turn
until the very end.

All right, next,

goddess of wisdom, Ms. Athena.

[breathing shakily]

[dramatic music playing]

Hye-seung.

[Hye-seung] Hello.

I teach students for a living.

And I have a special reason
for coming here tonight.

I wanted to tell you…

the truth about something I went through.

Something that happened to me.

[suspenseful music playing]

And to tell you all about the woman…

who took everything from me.

[dramatic music continues playing]

[music ends]
