Original subtitles

I wonder who's here this early.

What brings you by?

You asked me if I were your husband.

Must I have been your husband though?

I don't know anything about reincarnation,

but there's one thing I do know.

It's the fact that I'm beginning to like you.

Mom.

What...

What are you? Get away from us!

Mom.

Get lost. Shoo!

- My gosh. - Jeom Soon,

go ahead and say hello.

(Episode 8)

Jeom Soon, he's your...

He's Professor Jung Yi Hyun.

Are you all right?

I'm good.

Say hello to him.

Hello.

Yes, hello.

I know she startled you.

Jeom Soon has been reincarnated five times,

and her fifth is as a tiger.

You probably can't believe it even though we're right here,

but we've been living like this for 699 years.

Well...

May I use the restroom?

Outside, you'll see a small door.

Okay.

How could you? You almost gave me scars.

What were you dreaming of that almost turned you into a tiger?

Well... What did I do anyway?

Why scold me when that man is the one to blame?

- Don't call him that. - Whatever.

You have a cell phone now, so why not call...

instead of coming here unannounced? How rude!

Do not talk like that to your seniors!

Why is he here though?

Well...

Does Dad finally remember us?

I'm not sure about that.

On that note, do you plan to stay at home today?

The deadline for my novel is today.

I'll be working from home all day.

But the weather is amazing today.

I didn't shower last night, so it'll take ages to get ready.

I'm staying home.

You say that as if you actually shower every day.

Whatever!

If you want to, go out with him to talk.

It's the weekend, so the cafe is closed anyway.

See you later.

Were you surprised?

It'd be a lie if I wasn't.

I can't describe what happened earlier...

with any existing theory.

Sometimes you have to accept the things as they are.

To have doubts about everything.

That's my life's motto.

Is that so?

But there's something unquestionable right here in this moment.

What is that?

Your stomach has been rumbling since a while ago.

What?

Come on. I rarely have breakfast.

It must be your stomach that rumbled.

Well, I guess we can have some breakfast.

Who is it this time?

Mr. Kim.

(Hyunpoong Chicken Kalguksu)

- Enjoy. - Thank you.

Isn't this too grand for breakfast?

I saw this place before,

and there was always a long line unless early in the morning.

This is delicious.

Why aren't you eating?

It's too much to eat alone.

Here.

Here you go.

Wings are the best parts of chicken.

Why would you give me this drumstick instead?

Give it to me then.

Mother and Father, you two should share it.

Neck is my favorite.

I love eating chicken breast with salt.

Mother and Father.

I'm glad we all have different tastes in chicken.

Why are you eating the chicken neck first?

You're right.

You have drumsticks there.

Sharing a whole chicken with my housemate...

gave me a habit of this.

You mean, Geum?

He doesn't like eating chicken neck?

Trying to give me drumsticks,

he said his favorite was the neck and took it all the time.

So I started to eat chicken neck first.

That way, he'd enjoy delicious parts too.

Hello, professor.

Look who this is.

Why are you here in campus on the weekend?

May I borrow your phone?

What? My phone?

- No, you can't. - Pardon?

I don't use my phone on weekends.

The battery is dead.

I don't charge my phone on weekends.

This is really urgent though.

Make it less than 30 seconds.

I should've asked Mr. Geum to join us for breakfast.

Join us? Why?

- Do you have your phone with you? - My phone?

Here.

Let me keep this while we're together.

Gosh.

- Ms. Fairy. - Mr. Geum.

- Hello? - Where are you, professor?

Why do you ask?

Thank you for the food.

What?

He actually likes the neck?

Didn't you drink a lot yesterday?

You should've rested at home.

You are the one who finished most of the whisky.

Aren't you tired?

Didn't you see me do push-ups yesterday?

I hardly get tired.

It's warm and nice.

I did more push-ups than you though.

Then again,

I have strong legs.

I was a soccer player up until middle school.

I was a mid-fielder.

Let me go to the restroom for a second.

It's on the right side of the entrance.

- What happened? - What do you mean?

- You didn't tell me anything. - Let me tell you right now.

I'm hanging out with Ms. Seon today.

You said you went shopping with her.

So I'm telling you right now.

Oh and I like her.

I'm telling you this because you told me first.

- Professor Jung. - I'm not trying to fight you.

I know you didn't mean to fight me either.

Let's be simple. You told me first,

and I'm telling you now.

How about we go in somewhere?

Why? Isn't it nice to walk outside?

The weather is nice too.

Do you want to go somewhere?

What's wrong with this punk?

Right, let's go anywhere.

What is that place for?

(Escaping Room)

It's Escaping Room. It's trendy among young people these days.

There are rooms,

and you have to clear missions to escape from those rooms.

- "Missions"? - Well...

There's a problem to solve in each room.

You have to solve it in order to escape.

That sounds fun.

You want to try?

We can't escape because we have work every night.

I think we'll be stuck here forever.

Throw one of your beans, and everything will be solved.

Don't be so pessimistic.

I reflected on myself for the last two days without sleeping.

I think the Master of the Northern Star is punishing me.

I'm not following.

I didn't get to tell you this,

but I was a horrible jerk back in the fairy realm.

I was worse than that rude punk.

What are you talking about?

You stole something or what?

I stole it all every time I saw them.

Were you a thief?

Well, sort of.

I was a horrible playboy who stole women's hearts.

I was merciless.

I swayed all the hearts of female immortals.

I was worst of the worst.

I see.

Right, I was.

Thinking this is a punishment,

I can't help but accept it.

I see. You should be punished for such a huge sin.

I guess you had some great skills of hitting on women.

I wouldn't call them skills.

I'd rather say they're in my nature.

You know, they're there when I wake up from my sleep...

or take a dump in a toilet.

They never fade away no matter how much I use them.

That's how I used to be.

- I see. - Right.

You do deserve to get punished on board here for all your life,

self-reflecting and repenting over and over again.

You must not need your beans then.

What...

What are you doing?

I never seduced a woman and have nothing to repent for.

I'll escape tonight.

How can you throw a bean not knowing what does what?

You could get us in even worse danger.

What's this?

It looks like writing.

I'm farsighted and can't read.

You're right. There's writing on it.

Right? There is, isn't there?

What does it say? Read it.

(To move)

- This is... - What?

Chinese.

What? You can't read?

You said you're from Goryeo and you can't read Chinese?

I can't see it and the one who can can't read.

How are we to get out of here?

I wasn't a noble. I was a servant.

What are all these green lines?

They're lasers. We must avoid them and get to the other side.

Are you kidding me? Are we that nimble?

How are we to get through?

I think some lasers are fake.

I have no idea what you're saying.

I'll go first.

No.

The professor will go first.

Ok Nam, I'll get through first. Watch carefully.

That was cold.

What was that? Now that was annoying.

Get out of there. There's a time limit.

Go on. Press the reset button.

The third wheel's trying to be the leader?

Watch me, Ms. Fairy.

Crouch a little more or you'll touch one.

That's cold.

You peed your pants.

Can I have a go?

Be careful, Ok Nam. You might end up like Geum.

Stop it.

Don't.

Come on then. Hurry up.

What are all these numbers?

They must be possible codes.

Are you kidding me?

We can't try all these.

Don't get so upset. There must be a mission.

We must find the instructions.

(Psychiatry Patient Chart)

"A great scholar of national history died in this room."

"The answer to his question is the code to escape this room."

"If you cannot guess correctly,"

"you must remain in this room with his ghost."

- There is a warning. - What are they?

"You should not make too much noise."

"The patient next door is sensitive to sound."

"Even a small noise can wake that patient."

This is a mess of epic proportions.

Come on. It's fun.

You get scared more than you let on.

Save me. Save me.

Let's solve the problem and get out of here.

We can't unless we find the problem.

Find the problem and I'll solve it.

It'll have to be about when someone was born or died.

For example, Charles Darwin was born in 1809 and died in 1882.

Richard Dawkins' famous book "The Selfish Gene"...

was published in 1976.

I'm teaching the Hardy–Weinberg principle.

In 1908...

Save me.

That's a signal to be quiet.

There's writing on this. It must be a hint.

Read it.

"Your servant still has 12 ships."

The Battle of...

The Battle of Myeongnyang.

What year was that in?

15... No.

16... No.

I think it was the 1500's.

Ok Nam. You must know the answer.

You lived for 699 years.

You're right.

Well... That is true.

Did you forget that historical moment?

Or is it a lie that...

you lived for 699 years?

What do you take me for...

Save me.

I'll remember the year.

Was it 1597?

Don't pretend to know.

You can't even remember the door passcode.

I was right. Ms. Fairy's awesome.

Only you didn't know the answer.

Will you keep quiet?

What if the other patient comes in?

Will you save her?

Ms. Fairy, how did you get the answer?

Let's move onto the next room.

1597...

What is the task this time?

I think I found something I'm good at.

You're really good at this.

Do you have a stomach ache?

Your face turned pale.

You don't look too good.

Let's get out of here quick.

Don't mind me.

What's the mission?

It might be somewhere here.

I won't forgive those who abandoned me.

I won't forgive those who abandoned me.

I won't forgive those who abandoned me.

Those. I won't forgive them.

Professor. Professor.

- Professor. - Professor Jung.

This won't do.

Call someone with the phone they gave us.

(Escape Room Cafe)

It's not connecting.

Hello? Hello?

Professor Jung. Wake up.

It's okay. I'm here.

Mr. Geum's here too.

Do something. Don't you have another phone?

We left ours at the counter when we came in.

What should we do?

It's okay. We'll be out of here soon.

I will stay at your side.

I will never leave you.

I will...

never leave you.

I'm sorry for troubling you like this.

Please get some rest.

Did something happen to Professor Jung?

I don't know the whole story,

but he grew up quite lonely...

and still has nightmares regarding his past.

Professor Jung seems to have experienced a lot of pain.

I hope you'll take good care of him.

That reminds me.

How's your hand?

It's nothing. I guess I was clumsy.

Let me see. The wound seems quite deep.

No, it's really all right.

I'm all right.

You should head back inside.

I can make it home alone from here.

- I'll take you home. - No, don't.

The person who needs you at the moment...

isn't me.

Don't forget to treat your hand.

I will...

never leave you.

So there are letters on these adzuki beans?

That's right.

I just found out after carrying them around for hundreds of years.

Let me see.

What would we have done without clever Fairy Oh?

This is what I heard when taking the beans.

One of them is supposed to be quite deadly.

I read them.

Then tell us.

What about me then?

You'll leave me behind on this boat.

Ever since we boarded this boat, you've been by the thief...

turning your face at an angle...

and twisting your body to create shapes.

He's right. It's as if you're determined to throw...

a wedding on this boat.

Exactly. You have no idea how adorable you've been.

Even my heart fluttered.

When did I ever do that? What do you take me for?

We have eyes too, you know.

We see you every day.

I'm only doing this for my winged dress.

So did you find it?

I checked every drawer including those with his underwear.

There was nothing that seemed like my winged dress.

What pattern was your winged dress?

We can look for those that seem similar.

Just leave it.

I'd rather spend my life here in the mortal realm.

What?

You always wanted to go back as if you had something there.

I thought I wanted to, but I finally figured it out.

Figure what out?

I'm in love with someone.

Do you think that it's one of you?

Unbelievable.

Did I seriously choose to get on a boat with you two?

It's probably one of us.

Does the idea scare you?

We never said that.

It's your choice then.

I know the letters on these beans,

so meet me here tomorrow at the hour of the dog.

Shouldn't we leave tonight?

There's a huge job lined up for tonight.

If we leave, the rest will have to do more work.

For an immortal, you sure are selfish.

I was thinking about leaving tonight too.

Whether it's tonight or tomorrow night,

go without me if you wish to blindly throw a bean.

However, take me with you if you want a safe escape.

Geum!

Geum?

You're home early. You said you'd be back this afternoon.

Right. Anyway, there's so much food that...

I thought my arm would fall off carrying it over here.

You should've called me.

You said you lost your phone.

Have you not found it yet?

I brought acorn jelly, Professor Jung's favorite.

Professor!

Gosh.

You're back.

Goodness. It's not like you to sleep in.

Anyway, go and wash up while I set the table.

("Alleyway")

What a dark night

The moon and stars have taken cover

I stand alone in the alleyway you walk

I hate the cold wind that blows

All the wait

It hurts.

When did this happen that it still hurts?

Yesterday?

No.

Well, it just got stuck in the door.

This isn't an injury that can happen that way.

Well... It was the front door.

Are you its mortal enemy or something?

You always forget the combination...

and now you injured your hand.

Wounds like this should be treated immediately.

Sure.

If only you meant it.

What happened yesterday?

You never had claustrophobia.

Did you take Ms. Seon home?

She said she'd go home alone.

She was deeply worried about you.

This is your fault for suggesting such a childish game.

Professor Jung, Mr. Geum!

I brewed some coffee.

You said that my coffee...

prevents the nightmares.

You shouldn't have.

Professor, I need to be at the lab.

I'll see you around, Ms. Fairy.

Mr. Geum.

Enjoy your conversation.

- Mr. Geum. - Ms. Fairy?

I will never leave you.

[VIU Ver] tvN E08 'Mama Fairy & the Woodcutter' -♥ Ruo Xi ♥-

You seem to have memories that can't be forgotten.

There's nothing like that.

You may fool ghosts, but not fairies like me.

How did you remember the year of Battle of Myeongnyang yesterday?

Will you tell me your story if I tell you mine?

There's nothing to tell though.

I asked the plant in the room.

What, you cheated?

You're a fairy. You shouldn't cheat.

You finally seem to believe that I can talk with plants.

Didn't you say I just have to accept some things as they are?

You know.

I keep having nightmares,

but they're always the same.

I'm locked up in a dark, cramped room,

and I look outside through a crack.

I'm so starved that I can't move.

And I see crows fly in the sky...

waiting for me to die.

I feel sad and angry.

I'm not sure if you'll believe me,

but it could be memories of your past life.

My past life?

I don't have to go that far in the past.

I know very well about how it feels to be abandoned.

Does it have something to do with you hating your birthday?

Let's stop here.

Isn't this too much...

in exchange for your cheating story?

If you ever wish to tell someone everything,

come to me.

Whenever it may be, I'll be waiting.

I wish I was the one you've been waiting for.

I have something to show you.

Ta-da. What do you think?

You're in that shirt.

Sorry about my poor embroidering skills.

I'll make the legs of the cranes longer next time.

Wait, they're cranes?

I thought they were pigeons with long legs.

They aren't pigeons. They're cranes.

There's something I'd like to have.

Ssambab.

You mean, lotus-leaf wrap?

No, a lotus plant.

Geum bragged so much about its flower.

His lotus flower...

bloomed?

You'll give one to me, right?

Keeping one will make me feel like I'm with you.

Who knows? I might stop having nightmares too.

Okay, I'll give one to you.

Yes!

Since I owe you one from yesterday,

let me invite you for dinner today.

I'll bring some food then.

There's no need to. Just come barehanded.

Don't expect too much though.

I clearly heard it.

"Darn, what's so special about that jerk?"

Or was it "shoot"?

It's already shocking that she swore,

but she swore at Geum?

This doesn't make sense.

Why are you so down? You didn't even say hi.

Love issues?

What? What did you say?

Who's your girlfriend?

Your outfit looks old-fashioned. Is she older than you?

- What? - Geum.

Don't make it so scandalous.

It's not like you're a pole jumper.

Jumping over the boundary of age or status for love...

doesn't suit you at all.

That's totally not you.

What are you talking about?

Fine, you're playing dumb. Forget it.

I'm against your relationship.

Hello? Yes, Mom.

Professor Lee Ham Suk?

I told her about it. Go straight to her office.

Okay, bye.

My gosh.

Is he introducing her to his mom?

Please make yourself comfortable.

You're here for your sore knees. Standing will worsen the pain.

Okay then.

And you should go see an orthopedist to treat your sore knees.

I'm a psychiatrist.

Here.

I'm aware that I can't treat my sore knees here.

Why are you here then?

I've thought hard for the past few days ever since that day.

I'm approving you...

as the one for my son's professor.

What, who? Me?

The both of you have slanted eyes,

so I was worried your child might have...

the eyes as twice slanted.

That made me think hard over nights,

but you seem nice other than that, so I've decided to back you up.

I don't know what you're talking about.

You went all crazy and slanderous over someone in the toilet that day.

Wasn't it about Professor Jung?

I'm tall and slim. I'm smart.

I have fair skin, big breasts, and a good proportion.

I'm sexy too. That crazy idiot.

That's not true.

Goodness, when did I ever...

Ma'am, please keep it a secret.

You must be worried I might have loose lips,

but I can be as close as an oyster.

Meaning, your secret is safe with me.

She doesn't sound trustworthy at all.

Today is your golden chance.

You spilled the seaweed soup that day,

so Professor Jung didn't get to have any on his birthday.

He must be feeling so gloomy right now.

If a woman like you takes good care of him...

with delicious food at times like this,

he'll fall straight for you.

Today will be the day he falls in love with you.

You think so?

Men are easily swayed over food.

But Professor Jung isn't so gluttonous.

Forget it then. He and I live under the same roof,

so I'm telling you how to win his heart.

If you think it's not the answer, there's nothing I can do.

No, I think you're right.

Do I have to visit his house though?

There are a lot of nice restaurants.

Way too smart women are usually horrible...

at dating like you.

Once the night deepens,

I'll go upstairs and leave you two alone.

So come to the house.

(Eureka)

Ma'am, I'll never forget your kindness.

Don't say that. I'm just doing this...

because I feel pity and frustrated for Professor Jung.

Don't pester him.

Heat him up nice and well.

Okay, I will.

Nice and well.

Don't worry.

Why are you putting so much makeup on?

You look like mochi from here.

Don't exaggerate.

Are you done writing?

Of course.

Good job.

You must not have any schedule tonight, right?

Why?

Professor Jung invited us over for dinner.

Me too?

We're family, so shouldn't you come too?

Sorry. I have plans.

I made them long ago and can't cancel.

What is it about?

- Filming a movie. - A movie?

- Motion pictures? - Yes.

Why do they need you?

They need writers for that.

I'm that writer.

I hope it's not too dangerous.

Not at all. I'm quite strong.

The friends you're going with. Are they all good people?

My friends?

Of course.

I have to go. Have fun at dinner.

Okay.

Hello, Ms. Cho, bye, Ms. Cho.

I lent her my shoes and she ruined the heel.

Where did she see that? She's following all the trends.

Was this outfit that gaudy?

Darn it.

I need to crush the fool who attacked my castle yesterday.

Where is he?

You're working today.

Gyeong Sul.

- Can I have a coffee? - Of course.

What kind do you like?

A rich body?

Something that goes down smoothly?

What acidity?

Sour? Or sweet?

Something not like the last cup.

Okay.

You do cold brews too? I'll take that. With lots of ice.

Why not have a nice hot cup of hand-dripped?

Do you still play?

- How about we play one day? - Sounds good.

I have a girlfriend now, so I can't play as often.

- A girlfriend? - Yes.

She's a student here and she's really cute.

I'll bring her by.

Take care.

A girlfriend?

I see.

Okay.

Too bad.

I might lose my castle but I won't give up on you.

Who is it?

Just wait.

Jeong Soo. Seon Jeong Soo.

What are you looking at? Didn't you hear me call you?

- Sorry, I didn't hear you. - I called really loudly.

That outfit must be trending.

Is it?

I just wore what my mom bought.

I don't know about trends.

I just read.

You're not like girls these days.

Don't look at me like that.

I'm not wearing makeup and I'm embarrassed about it.

You have really pale skin considering it's not makeup.

Do you want some coffee?

I drank from the cup.

It's good.

Do you know the library coffee truck?

It's really famous. Let's go one day.

- You were there? - Yes.

They say there's an old lady barista...

but I only see this weird-looking woman.

Oh, right. That woman was wearing this too.

Shall we go?

You're much prettier.

You don't like it?

How about now?

My hand...

I know, I saw it. Tell me when you're okay.

I think your hands are pretty.

She's not here.

Are you my husband?

The person I've been waiting for.

Is it really you?

You lost your winged dress, didn't you?

Beware of the man you live with.

Why did that memory come to me on a day like this?

Hi.

So, did you prepare all the food?

I almost died cooking.

I offered to help you.

How does it taste?

It's the effort that counts.

What kind of nonsense is that?

It's pointless if the food's horrible.

What? Then what should I do?

I'm just kidding.

You Seoul people don't have an ounce of humor.

I'm shaking, that's why.

Are you Im Byeong Soo?

Who?

Only Im Byeong Soo is allowed to shake.

I want ice cream

Full of love

Please give me two

Carino mio, somos dos

I'm right outside. Are you in?

I'm not a piece of radish in kimchi.

Why would I hang around at such an important moment?

I left already. I'm at a sauna.

You didn't have to leave.

Of course I had to.

This is the kind of day when history is made.

Having to teach you everything is a bit taxing, you know.

I see Geum.

- He's coming home. - Is he?

Send him somewhere else.

- You don't want him around. - Right.

I'll hang up now and lie down in the germanium room.

Good luck.

What are you doing at our place?

Geum, I need your help.

I'm going to tell Yi Hyun I like him.

- What? - I freaking like him.

Staying friends will give me a heart attack,

so I'll tell him I like him.

Does he know that?

Would he? He's so slow.

If he'd caught on,

would I have come here bearing a feast?

Which is why...

Do you think you could stay at the lab late tonight?

I'm going to settle it today.

Sure.

Thank you.

Gosh, I'm so excited.

- Professor. - Yes?

This is the entrance.

Oh, of course. Thank you!

Get going then.

Sure.

Bye.

Did they reject my proposal? Where are they?

I was hoping to leave today so that I can take a dump.

Fairy Oh. Fairy Oh!

Wait. Why is it just you?

We decided to move one by one so that the others don't catch on.

Tell me this. It isn't me, is it?

What is?

The one you love.

Do you really hate me liking you?

I never said that. My heart can't take it, that's all.

Being a pigeon, you can fly.

Wizard Park has magic beans.

Fairy Seon can use all the water she wants...

and can grow trees.

That's right.

What about me though?

I'm a fairy too, but I have no special talents.

You study and read books.

None of us do that.

I was just making a character for myself.

However, it turns out that I have a special talent too.

During my life of hundreds of years,

I saw many old friends die of old age back where we live.

Even though things are touch and go,

they'd have clear heads when about to actually die.

Yes, I remember.

My talent which seemed to have been forgotten...

came back to me on this boat.

I guess it's time for me to vanish too.

Don't be like that. You're not going anywhere.

Nothing in this world lasts forever.

The same goes for me.

Master Gu, Fairy Oh.

Give me your beans!

You thief.

Where are the beans?

This is why I know that it's not my time to die.

You nasty thief, you were the worst husband ever.

- Are you insane? - Yes, I am.

I fell in love with the dumb Wizard Park,

so of course I'm insane.

So it wasn't me?

I'm the fairy of love.

My special talent is love.

It's a one-sided love!

My power is unlimited when protecting those I love!

What?

Take my hand.

We're directly headed to Fairy Seon.

We're really going now!

There, you'll meet a friend of mine.

I heard it blossomed.

Should I keep my ears peeled?

What do you mean?

I'll help you with anything you wish to know.

At the house, I'll probably pick up on a few things.

I see you're quite cheeky.

I don't need to know anything, so just take good care of him.

That's all I want.

Sure.

Gosh, I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Mr. Geum!

Are you going somewhere?

To the university. What about you?

Professor Jung invited me to dinner.

You should come to.

Don't go.

Is something wrong?

Are you sure it's Professor Jung...

you've been waiting for?

It might not be.

(Mama Fairy and the Woodcutter)

I don't know. I can't remember his face.

To be forgotten by one's beloved wife is more painful.

Was that person really me?

I like Professor Jung.

I'll win him over with physical contact men like.

No. It can't be!

Why don't we go there tomorrow?

Gyeryong.

I like Ms. Fairy too!

A love triangle? That news gave me a heart-attack.

You look beautiful.

(On some day 2 years ago, I met him for the first time.)

Are you angry because your mom sent you here?

I'm sorry.

I only pretended to be his friend all this time...

because I was jealous.

He has good grades, so he'll go to a good college.

My mom always wishes for me to be like him.

I thought of trying...

to be more like him,

but I ended up impersonating him instead.

I see. There's no need to apologize to me though.

I'm not scolding you,

and I don't intend to criticize you.

All I want is to hear your story.

My story always seems...

to make others uncomfortable.

Who finds you uncomfortable?

My mom.

If your own mom finds your true self uncomfortable,

your life is as good as over.
