Original subtitles

I'm sure you too have things you miss in the past

that you can never go back to.

I think I saw that.

I told you that I saw you in a dream.

In a dream?

You were smiling

under a huge tree.

When someone said he'd build you a house,

you said mean things just as you do now,

but you were happy.

The man who taught you how to write your name, Man-wol.

Is he the person you miss the most

in your past?

How do you see...

such things?

Why do I see you?

I'm scared that I may have to pay the price for it.

What's the sorrow you're still feeling?

Maybe

I'm here by your side...

to help you get over that deep sorrow?

You didn't die.

You are tied to the Moon Tree,

and the flow of life and death has stopped for you. I told you that.

The leaves sprout, and the flowers bloom and wither.

Your time will start flowing once again.

The tree just changed.

You're right.

You might turn out to be someone a lot more special than I thought.

I can't just leave like this.

What about my dog, Sun-dol?

There's nothing you can do when it comes to death.

Gosh, I can't go!

I can't go!

Sun-dol, bark.

You need to bark to live.

If you don't, you'll die.

My goodness, come on.

Bark! You need to bark!

It's been a week, and he still won't budge.

It's because he still has something he's holding onto.

At times like this, it's not a bad idea to help him out a little.

Sun-dol, you need to leave.

Go outside! Hurry up and go!

Will you please go outside?

Just leave him. He won't wander for too long.

He'll find his way to Man-wol Inn.

It's called Hotel del Luna now, not Man-wol Inn.

Yes, I forgot.

Man-wol Inn, Man-wol Hostel, and then Hotel del Luna.

The name of that place changes so frequently,

but the owner of the place hasn't changed at all.

She hasn't changed for over 1,000 years.

She has no hope.

That's why I sent someone there.

Are you going to change the owner?

Man-wol's very stubborn,

so I just sent her some help.

Why did the tree change?

Why do you think? It's because of you.

It's because of me?

The old memories that shriveled up

crawled out again because of you.

What did I do?

All I did was tell you about the dream I had of you.

I know seeing ghosts is part of my job,

but dreaming is not.

I don't want to be treated unfairly for something I never even asked for.

You're going to get treated unfairly

because you've already provoked me.

The tree turned ugly because of you.

I get that you're twisted, but don't distort the truth.

The tree looks alive and healthy.

That is

the problem.

You just saved something that shouldn't have been saved.

Seeing that you're so angry,

I guess my dream really was about your past.

Are you embarrassed that I saw your past?

Yes.

I'm extremely embarrassed right now.

So I need to check this for myself.

What are you doing?

This is wrong.

Stay still.

Stop it.

Chan-sung, let's sleep.

Jang Man-won.

You need to sleep in order to have that dream.

I need to check for myself if you really saw me in a dream

or if you're deceiving me using all the rumors

you heard in this hotel.

Chan-sung, go to sleep.

I can't fall asleep like this.

And I can't guarantee that I'll have that dream again

even if I do fall asleep.

Then sleep next to me until you do have that dream.

I don't want to sleep next to you.

Be quiet and go to sleep while I'm being nice.

Fine. I'll sleep.

You can sleep next to me or watch me sleep.

Do as you want.

I'm going to kill you if it turns out to be a lie.

You just want it to be a lie

because you don't like that I saw your past.

I'm not going to tell you

what I see in my dreams since you hate it so much.

You can kill me or let me live. Do as you want.

Forget it. I'm not sleeping next to you.

Do the memories that I revived pain you that much?

Because you can't stop thinking about him?

Shut your mouth unless you want to turn all green like the tree.

Who is that man?

Why do you ask?

You think it might be you?

Yes, that thought did occur to me.

What I saw could be a memory from my past life that I don't remember.

There's no way you're him.

Why?

You've been on my mind ever since I had that dream.

You and I might go back a long way.

You're not him.

I feel nothing.

If you were him, I definitely wouldn't feel this way.

That's a huge relief.

I kept wondering, "What if I'm the man she liked in the past?"

It's been bothering me a lot.

You didn't have feelings for him?

You seemed to like him. A lot.

A lot.

Chan-sung.

If you keep spewing useless nonsense,

you'll get treated more unfairly.

More unfairly? How?

What? Are you not going to pay me? I signed the contract though!

Chan-sung!

Starting today,

you'll deal with ghost guests.

How long has it been since--

I guess you were lost for some time. I'll help you with your check-in.

I'll make sure you can use our beauty and hair services first.

This way, please. Let's take the elevator.

What's going on? Is Ms. Jang still angry even after drinking a case of champagne?

I must've upset her somehow. I think she's livid now.

Well, what kind of sin did Ms. Jang commit in the past?

Does it have something to do with a love affair?

I'm not sure.

Have you heard anything about a man she's perhaps waiting for?

No, nothing.

Really?

Is she not waiting for him?

Mr. Koo.

Are you concerned about what she's thinking?

No, not at all.

She's not waiting for the first and second choices.

Who cares if you were the third one? You're here now.

Mr. Ji.

I don't care at all about what Ms. Jang thinks.

Besides, I wasn't the third choice.

I was the zeroth choice. I beat everyone else.

The zeroth choice? Sure.

-I'm serious. -Okay, you were the zeroth choice.

It's all useless though. She said she felt nothing.

What's this spooky feeling?

I think quite a number of guests are coming.

Will you be all right?

No, I won't.

When our guests first arrive, they're often broken and ripped.

Sometimes, they have something tagging along.

But all the guests here are groomed, so you'll be fine.

I'm now experienced enough to handle this much.

Can I get a refill on my coffee?

We've run out of coffee beans.

Please give us a moment. We'll bring it to your table.

How do you procure the things that the guests

eat and drink here?

You can't get things delivered from a store.

We get them from the afterlife.

When we treat our guests well and help them go to the afterlife,

we get compensated for our work.

You mean, the ghosts pay you?

They leave good energy behind.

And that energy makes the flowers in our garden bloom.

The less regrets they take with them, the more beautiful the flowers are.

When our garden is filled with flowers, Mago takes them

and sends us the supplies that we need in return.

Then why does Ms. Jang

need to earn money through the ghosts?

It's all for her lavish lifestyle.

She spends all the money on her expensive champagnes,

clothes, jewelry, and cars.

How could someone who's being punished have such an attitude?

You said she's being punished.

Someone told me that I'm arrogant and foolish.

Although I don't agree with it.

I saw you in a dream.

The leaves sprout, and the flowers bloom and wither.

The time of life and death will flow once again.

That wicked old hag is pulling a silly trick on me.

The man who taught you how to write your name, Man-wol.

Is he the person you miss the most

in your past?

Goodness.

A slave ran away!

Someone must've helped her. Find them.

Who ran away?

She's not here. Search outside.

I heard the market where slaves from Goguryeo are traded, was attacked.

I had a feeling it might be you guys, so I came to check.

Thank goodness I'm nimble.

I almost got killed by your dagger.

No, I saved you because I'm nimble.

I'm much obliged,

but what will you do about this?

My face is very precious.

How will you pay for this?

Too bad.

The young lady at the Yeongju Castle adores your face.

How will you seduce her from now on?

Do you think she only adores my face?

Don't be such a baby.

Let go. Let go of me.

I said, let go!

Shut it! Get him over here at once. What are you waiting for?

Get up!

You bastards, let go!

Let go.

Yeon-u.

Yeon-u.

Let go. Yeon-u. It's Yeon-u.

Shut your mouth!

If you get out, you'll get caught too.

I give you my word. I'll be sure to save him

and bring him to you.

I promise.

Yeon-u.

Easy.

Yeon-u.

Are you all right?

I'm okay.

You have been waiting for that person

over this long period of time.

It is...

too green and too gaudy.

It looks ridiculous.

Yeon-u.

One of them was Yeon-u.

He was in Man-wol's gang.

Are you selling those flowers?

How much is it? I'd like to buy one.

No, that's fine.

I already gave yours.

Your dad almost died, trying to pluck a flower for you.

Because of that incident, he stopped stealing and lived a diligent life.

And he also raised a great son like you.

Flowers! Flowers are the best present for birthdays.

Flowers.

Weren't you the lady...

So how is it? How's working at the hotel?

Did you set this up?

All I did was open a path.

Are you telling me that it wasn't a coincidence he went to the hotel?

I planted a tree, you know.

Gosh, that tree has been growing spiky branches

and unwelcoming to the others.

I want you to take good care of the tree.

Okay? If you have a hard time looking after the tree,

you can come find me.

TO THE SAMDO RIVER

TO HEAVEN

Excuse me.

Hold on.

Sir.

Sun-dol, you brat.

You shouldn't be here.

I can't take you with me. Okay?

You... Goodness.

Where I'm headed is not a place for you.

He died all alone. It looks like it's been a few days.

The door was open. Why didn't the dog come out?

That's strange.

You shouldn't follow me there.

My goodness, you poor thing. Goodness.

Okay. Let's go there together, okay? We'll go together.

Mago plucks the flowers

and hands them out to the people who are headed to their afterlife.

And the souls who leave with Mago's farewells

go to a good place.

That lady earlier...

is Mago?

PHARMACY 11-28 YAKJAE-GOLMOKGIL, GYEONGDONG MARKET

What's that?

Chan-sung, come on out!

Chan-sung!

Chan-sung, here. I bought the most amazing bread.

Someone saw a ghost at a bakery I regularly go to.

A ghost kneaded the dough for this bread, so I waited to buy it.

Sanchez, don't say stuff like that.

I don't want to hear about ghosts even at my own home.

Hey, what if the ghost who made this followed me home?

Why are you here?

Why are you here again?

Chan-sung, what are you doing? You're scaring me.

There's no ghost here. It's just bread.

Did you follow him here?

Did you follow the bread?

Chan-sung, I apologize for my silly story.

Let's just eat the bread. Okay?

I'm good. You eat it.

I think I have to go back to work now.

Hey. How can I eat this bread after what you said just now?

Seems like Mr. Third Choice brought back a guest who went out.

She went out of here, went to a bakery, and made bread.

She shouldn't have done something like that.

She's the one that was supposed to leave in a limousine today, right?

Yes, Mr. Koo went to Ms. Jang to get her signature

for postponing the limousine reservation.

Did she want to have bread before leaving this world?

She can't even eat bread from this world anyway.

She should've called for room service.

Why did she go to a bakery?

Hyeon-jung, can't you pay better attention to the guests coming and leaving?

Do you want to get on the bus to the afterlife?

I had a big group of guests yesterday, so I was swamped.

Do your job right.

That was mean.

Wasn't it? How can she tell me to take the bus?

Yes, that was a harsh thing to say.

Why is she so on edge like that?

Oh, it will be the 25th soon.

It's that day already. We'll pass through it safely, won't we?

We have to.

If what happened 42 years ago happens again,

Ms. Choe will be dragged to the afterlife for sure.

A ghost can't just go around this world stirring up trouble.

She didn't do anything serious,

so tell her to go to the other world as planned.

I want to change that reservation.

Please sign here.

RESERVATION CHANGE

There's someone she really wants to see.

Every single ghost has someone that they want to see!

She wants to see that person because she never saw him

when she was alive.

She was blind when she was alive.

How can she want to see the person when she has never seen him?

She doesn't even know the name.

Why is she looking for someone she doesn't even know?

Forget it and go.

Stop annoying me.

She says her hands remember.

If she holds the hands, she can feel who it is.

That's some nonsense a ghost is spewing.

Go away!

Is what you said also nonsense then?

You said you can tell by your feelings.

That I'm definitely not that man.

Then you don't know either.

You are...

definitely not him.

I'm right then, so you should sign this.

Darn.

JANG MAN-WOL

I'll find her that person and then send her off.

She is the first guest I brought, so I want to send her off nicely.

Don't try to get money off her.

She doesn't have any.

Why are you doing something that won't get you money?

You're being used by that ghost.

You're so weakhearted. Such an easy target for ghosts.

You're right.

If I'd been tougher and held out, I wouldn't have ended up here.

I regret that I'm such a weak human being

that you like so much.

-Are you being sarcastic? -I'm saying it's my fate.

I don't regret bringing you in

and complicating your life.

Do you really think you did that?

They say, "You complicate your own life."

Maybe it wasn't you who dragged me here.

Maybe I was the one who pushed myself into the place I felt drawn to.

Drink this.

You should drink as much water as alcohol, so you won't feel dry.

I'll bring some bread when I come back.

The place we're visiting is a famous bakery.

It's the place that comedian Kim Jun-hyun visited.

Try the Eat At Once game.

Why are you being nice? You're making me nervous.

Are you giving me poison nicely?

I'm trying to take care of you.

If I give you water and bread,

who knows?

Leaves have sprouted from the dry tree. Maybe flowers might bloom.

Don't.

Do you think I'm some seedling that sprouts when you give it water?

I'm an old tree that's been dry for over a thousand years.

The tree has leaves now. I think it will be worthwhile.

-Stop being weird! -Am I bothering you?

You said you didn't feel anything. I guess that's not true.

That stupid...

Hey, Chan-sung.

Don't do this. Don't come here anymore.

Why? I have work to do.

You don't have to come here.

I'll let you go.

I have nowhere to go now.

Because you made me leave the last hotel like that,

they hate me. I can't go back there.

There are other hotels on the Forbes list.

They liked me when they didn't know I can see ghosts.

Not anymore.

And you have no one else except for me.

You were the third choice.

There are two other candidates, and they're better.

Oh, those two.

They're too tough and strong for this job.

You need an easy target for ghosts like me.

Someone who can resolve their grudges.

Here, I'm the zeroth pick.

Chan-sung.

If you keep doing this, I really won't like you.

Having you like me because I'm not bothering you.

Having you not like me because I'm bothering you.

I prefer the latter.

I'll accompany the guest outside.

He will keep on provoking me?

He thinks I'm a joke because the tree has leaves now.

What kind of bread are you looking for?

The bread that you're baking now

smells so nice.

It's chestnut bread.

It's warm, right?

And fluffy.

I just baked it.

Every time I went there, he held my hand warmly.

My heart was thumping so hard, I was afraid he'd know how I felt.

So I never got to talk to him properly.

You don't know his face or his name.

But you will know for sure when you hold his hand, right?

If you approach him with those hands,

you will only make him scared and fail to hold him.

Shall I tell them the situation and find out?

Okay, I will lend my body to you.

Wow, the bread here is the best.

Thank you.

You made the bread with this hand. It's a great hand.

It's not him.

Can you recommend a cake?

What about this strawberry cake?

The chocolate cake looks good too.

There's cheesecake too.

They're all delicious.

There's only one left, so it must be him.

Can I save points here?

Yes, do you have our membership card?

I didn't bring it.

Tell me your phone number.

Zero, one, zero...

What's your problem?

-This guy has been acting strange. -Who are you?

Well, I...

Chan-sung.

What are you doing?

Sanchez.

I'm sorry. It won't happen again.

I'm sorry.

Take care.

What did you tell them?

I told them you're not a weirdo and said sorry.

They said you should never come here again.

I'm sorry, Sanchez.

Why did you do that?

I thought you went to the hotel. Why are you here?

A guest asked me to look for someone there.

Jeez.

You could've just asked for the name

instead of kneading the hands of all the employees.

I had my reasons.

You should've asked me for help.

I'm a regular customer here.

Do you remember every employee who worked here?

Of course I do.

Let go.

Am I the only one who sees

these green things?

Leaves have sprouted

on the tree.

It's so beautiful. Let's take a photo.

We shouldn't be marveling but lamenting.

It's a sign that the hotel will face hardship.

Why is that?

Man-wol is being punished by being tied to this tree.

Such changes to the tree must mean that her punishment is coming to an end.

What's so wrong with that?

Think about what will happen after she leaves.

We're still here thanks to her, so what will happen to us?

We'll have to take the bus to the afterlife.

No way.

I can't leave yet.

Same here.

Why did this suddenly happen?

What changed?

We have a new manager.

I guess Mr. Third Choice has something to do with this.

The person you're looking for is working here now.

Hello, here's the coffee you ordered.

That's him.

It tastes better if you stir thoroughly. Enjoy.

Thank you.

Would you like to hold his hand?

Excuse me.

Yes?

Hello, I was a regular customer of the bakery you worked at.

Oh, I see.

I hope you come by here often too.

It's warm, right?

And fluffy.

I just baked it.

Spend some time here and come back to the hotel.

Do you feel proud?

It was worth it.

Is this a new car?

Yes, isn't it sweet?

The tacky poop color is not fit for a car.

Bright color like this is better.

So you went ahead and bought one?

No, but I call dibs.

Count me out if you're off to buy one right now.

I'd rather get some sleep.

Sure, let's go sleep.

Sorry?

Let's sleep together.

I'm going to see how you dream this time.

As my boss, saying you'd like to sleep with me is inappropriate.

I'll let it slide just this once.

Would you rather get a bite to eat?

I never said I wouldn't sleep. I'm just not sleeping with you.

That's not what I said. I only asked you out for a meal.

Do you realize that you're not making any sense?

You said you'd look after me.

Seeing that I sleep and eat well is how you do it.

Chan-sung.

Look after me.

What would you like to eat?

This place is quite famous on social media.

I wanted to try the food.

You knew, right?

You knew that this is my friend's place.

Will you believe me if I say no?

Why ask when you're not going to?

What's good here?

Why ask when you won't even order what I recommend?

You know me well.

I'll have this.

You'll have this. I want to try them both.

Chan-sung!

Sanchez is my roommate.

He gets scared easily,

so don't mention anything about ghosts.

You must've lied to Sanchez about where you work.

-Hi, Sanchez. -Hey.

Did you find the man you were looking for?

Yes, thanks to you.

So this is my colleague.

She must be a hotelier too.

That's so cool.

We'll order number 2 and number 15.

Sure thing. Let's see.

It's a hard place to work at, isn't it?

Chan-sung's been stressed out ever since he started to work there.

You said the owner was a maniac, right?

That lady...

What was her name again?

-Jang Man-wol. -Yes, Jang Man-wol.

I remember because the name is so weird.

Anyway, from what I hear,

employees must badmouth their bosses to relieve stress at work.

So when I serve the pizza,

think of it as that owner's head.

And enjoy your meal while ripping her apart.

Rip, bite, and chew, all right?

It'll take more than one pizza to vent all your anger.

Order another one.

I never called you a maniac.

I only said you were hard to reason with.

What's so wrong about it?

Don't we all get a little crazy sometimes?

Anyway, this reminds me

of the loaf of bread you promised to get me.

How did it go at the bakery?

It all went well.

Her hands guided her to the right place.

Is that so?

But the memories that ghosts have can get...

all mixed up sometimes.

Floating around so for long

makes them forget what's important.

Sometimes, they only remember

what they want to remember.

You said that she only remembered his hands.

That's a beautiful memory.

Still, it's missing something.

She lived a decently long life,

but his hand is the only thing she desperately remembers

just because he kindly picked up bread for her?

What are you getting at?

The most important memories for a ghost

are mostly the same.

The memories of when they died.

Help me.

Chan-sung.

Come to my hotel if you die.

Darn it. What's your problem?

If you do this, you'll turn to ashes and disappear.

Don't leave in vain like that.

I'll make sure he gets punished for what he did.

I promise!

You found the guy who committed a hit-and-run six months ago?

So you caught him by yourself and brought him here?

Yes, he hit a blind woman who was crossing the street

with his motorcycle and ran away, leaving her for dead.

Oh, really?

Gosh, you're incredible.

"He hit a blind woman who was crossing the street..."

You're the first guest I'm sending off at this hotel.

I heard you go to a nice place if you receive that flower.

Thank you.

The memory I had of his hand was a horrible one.

But I was a fool to remember it

as a warm and heart-fluttering memory.

That's because you were probably the kind of person

who always tried to remember happy memories

regardless of how small they were

over terrible hardships you had.

SAMDO RIVER

Sir.

Would you like some more coffee?

Isn't this place huge?

There's a sandy beach if you go outside.

Your son will love it.

Thank you.

Let's go have fun in the water.

Come on.

Do you want me to carry you?

There we go.

The father and son came together due to a car accident.

Gi-ung, stop!

Gi-ung, no!

He still hasn't come to his senses even after what he saw.

Ms. Jang.

We saw the tree in the garden.

Everyone's feeling very nervous.

The tree's been dead for over 1,000 years. Why did it suddenly come back to life?

Mago told me that someone will come and help me leave.

I guess that person's here.

Is that person Mr. Koo?

Yes.

What did Mr. Koo say?

He told me that he'll take care of me

and that he'll try to make flowers bloom along with the leaves.

I guess I'll be gone

once the flowers fall.

Then what about us? What's going to happen to us?

How would I know?

That's up to you.

We can give up all together and move onto the afterlife.

Or you can roam around this world as vengeful ghosts

and turn into ashes.

Suit yourself.

We must stay at the hotel a little longer.

And you can't leave just yet either.

We should let go of Mr. Koo. Besides, he was our third choice,

and we have the fourth candidate ready.

Hey. Isn't that too harsh?

Don't distract me and go away.

I'm sorry.

We'll go away.

What's gotten into her?

What's her deal?

Let's just go.

She's unbelievable.

A ghost has taken up her body. And she's bold too. She's the perfect fit.

Right. We have another candidate.

I helped her steal the body, so I can definitely use that against her.

Besides, her family is loaded too.

Let's let go of Mr. Koo.

He won't leave.

I told him to leave, but he said no.

Koo Chan-sung can see ghosts now.

And he's settling in too.

Even if I kick him out with his eyes carved out,

he'll see ghosts and the hotel.

Mago will be able to take away his ability to see the ghosts.

You think that old hag will do me a favor? She's the one who sent him to me.

We can't kill a human,

but if we let him be, we'll have to get on the bus.

There's a way to fix this without killing him.

The guest...

who's staying in Room 13.

The guest in Room 13...

The guest in Room 13 hates even the sound of a human's breath.

If a human sees the guest in Room 13,

the human will go crazy.

Are you suggesting that we make him go mad?

Yes.

If he goes crazy and roams around like a madman,

he won't be able to come here even though he sees ghosts.

This world would isolate such people without our involvement.

Mental institution.

Ms. Jang, do you approve of this?

Where is Koo Chan-sung now?

This punk keeps making my garden look more and more hideous.

No one told you to chase around a ghost without getting any sleep.

You don't have much time left as a sane man.

It looks like you're wasting your precious time sleeping.

What a shame.

But it's all your fault.

You were really my cup of tea,

but I hate that you can look into me.

Why are you smiling?

Did you come here, so we could sleep together?

Are you happy now that you watched me sleep?

You saw me in your dream again?

Do you want to know?

Sit down. I'll tell you

what you were like in my dream.

This is what I hate.

I should be saying that I'll rip your mouth open if you don't shut up.

But for a second, I thought about sitting down there. And I really hate it.

You haven't budged an inch for over 1,000 years.

A second means a lot.

Yes, this change means a lot to me,

and you'll have to pay for it.

You agreed that you're the one who complicated your own life.

Whatever happens to you, it's all your fault.

If something happens to me, I'm sure you'll protect me.

You said you were going to protect me as I'm a weak human.

You were the one who stopped the motorcycle.

No, I didn't. I couldn't care less.

I know that it was you.

I jumped in because I trusted you.

I said, it wasn't me.

I trust that you will protect me.

So please protect me if something happens to me.

I will stay right next to you.

I'm going to kick you out.

Did it come from the dream?

That second of Man-wol?

Mr. Koo.

I need your help with a guest.

Okay. Which room is the guest in?

It's Room 13. She's a long-term stay guest.

Burn this incense stick in Room 13.

Okay, I'll do that.

The guest is very picky.

I'm sorry for troubling you.

I'm getting used to ghost guests now.

Don't worry.

I'm sorry.

I feel like I'm giving up on my virtue as a scholar.

I'm ashamed.

I liked him. He was like a good friend.

Mr. Koo is

on his way to Room 13 now.

Where is the guest?

Chan-sung!

Don't look.

Don't let her hear your breathing.

But I hear--

Don't listen to it.

What's the matter?

Chan-sung isn't going anywhere. I'm keeping him by my side.

You sent me to that room on purpose, didn't you?

I lost one of the earrings.

You'll go bankrupt at this rate.

Be kind and cut down on your spending.

She's being forced into a marriage.

You think this is the front desk?

Ma'am, you can't do this to our employee.

-I am okay with it. -Gosh.

Please take it.

You'll actually marry her?

Jang Man-wol...

Do you love me too?
