Original subtitles

Chan-sung!

Don't look.

Don't let her hear your breathing.

But I hear--

Don't listen to it.

What's the matter?

She's the guest staying in this room.

You'll go mad if you see her.

Don't turn around.

Get out of here once the door opens.

Go.

Ma'am.

You won't ever be able to step out of that door.

I apologize for waking you up.

Why don't you go back inside and get some sleep?

I guess the smell of incense made you go crazy.

You've been locked up in that closet for such a long time.

And you still get angry when you see a human being?

Do you want to go outside and vent your anger again?

You're a guest here.

So I won't shove you in the closet.

You should quietly crawl back inside on your own.

Koo Chan-sung.

Koo Chan-sung.

Koo Chan-sung.

Koo Chan-sung.

Koo Chan-sung.

Jang Man-wol?

Koo Chan-sung.

Koo Chan-sung.

Stop being stupid.

You don't know what a coward he is.

No matter how many times you call him, he won't come back.

Chan-sung?

Jang Man-wol!

Was that Mr. Third Choice who ran out at lightning speed?

Even if you look with one eye closed, it's not Mr. Koo.

I thought so too. The hair was all loose and wild.

It's the guest in Room 13.

She has left the hotel.

Our plan has failed. This is a disaster.

Chan-sung.

That thing is not here.

You can let me go.

You...

saw it, didn't you?

Just a glimpse.

So have you gone crazy?

I'm not crazy.

I was so frightened that I can't calm myself down now.

What about you? Are you hurt?

Are you all right, Man-wol?

Chan-sung.

Were you scared?

I'm not hurt.

I'm fine.

Why you...

You've gone a little crazy.

I was just playing around.

Were you really scared?

Then, is it really true that you go mad

if you see that ghost?

I thought you said that just to scare me.

Yes, it's true.

If you had seen it properly,

you would've gone completely mad.

Really?

She's really left, right?

Yes, she ran away.

I thought you'd take care of it. How could you let her go like that?

Well, I didn't know some coward would muster up the courage

and come running in opening the door wide.

What a fool.

What...

Wait for me.

A coward?

Are you calling me a coward?

There's no one else here.

You're such a fool.

What... A fool?

Nobody ever called me that in my whole life.

-I have an MBA from Harvard, and world-- -Shut up!

That's verbal violence. Please rephrase it.

-Okay. Shut it. -Are you joking?

-It's a ghost! -Where?

You are a coward.

God... I thought there was really a ghost.

I must've made a mistake while burning the incense. I apologize.

I'm glad you are safe.

Yes.

Ms. Choe, you should take proper care of the rooms.

That dangerous guest could've harmed our manager.

No, I'm sorry for worrying you.

Do you see how I just improvised that?

Mr. Third Choice has absolutely no idea that we put him in that room on purpose.

I don't know.

You looked rather guilty.

I think Mr. Koo is a fool for not noticing that.

Even if he is a fool, he will notice when Ms. Fourth Choice comes.

I should tell Hyeon-jung to postpone bringing in Ms. Fourth Choice.

Yu-na, what are you doing?

Get out of the way.

-Did you just see Yu-na? -Yes.

I heard she's possessed by Su-jeong's ghost.

I think it's true.

If you call out Su-jeong, she looks back.

-Really? -Really?

-Let's go and see. -Let's go.

-You call her name. -She really looks back?

That's so weird.

Su-jeong.

It must be true.

-That's so scary. -It's scary.

-What? -What is this?

Goodness.

-What? -What?

-What's happening? -What is that?

What are you doing?

I didn't want you to get hurt, so I caught you.

It can be painful.

If I got hurt, they would've looked at me as a human.

Now, they will call me a monster.

Hey.

Wait for me.

She's getting mad at me for helping her.

You. How did you catch me?

Ghosts can't catch humans.

I'm not an average ghost.

There are prayer beads and amulets in here.

So get lost, you evil ghost.

My friend.

I'm not a ghost that can be exorcised by power of religion.

I have the right to stay in this world.

I have a place I belong to, and I also have a job.

Don't make me laugh. What kind of ghost has a job?

I'm a hotelier. I'm from Hotel del Luna.

Hotel del Luna?

You know the owner and manager of our hotel, right?

They helped you live in that body.

So what?

You want me to come out of this body?

You are a really precious person.

You're our precious hope.

You are Ms. Fourth Choice.

The fourth choice?

You are the fourth choice for our hotel's manager.

Something has happened to Mr. Third Choice,

so I've come to take you, the fourth choice.

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

But you are here because you need me.

Yes.

A ghost even has a mobile phone?

Of course. I have a job, so I also have a phone.

I told you I have a right to stay here.

Your school's Wi-Fi is good.

Mr. Third Choice is unharmed. Ms. Fourth Choice will be deferred.

Are you saying you don't need me?

For now. But I might be back to take you soon.

So...

keep studying hard at school.

Hey!

Give me your number. I want to send texts to a ghost.

I've never shared my number with a human.

So you don't want to?

You can't?

Forget it then.

Okay. We're now friends.

The manager of Hotel del Luna?

Sounds fun.

Right.

Wait...

Mr. Ji?

I'm glad to see you still in your right mind.

Thank you for being genuinely delighted.

It sounds as if you all expected

me to turn insane in that room.

Gosh.

You didn't, and that's all that matters.

Ms. Fourth Choice is on standby.

We also discussed

a couple of other ways to get rid of Mr. Third Choice.

HOW TO ELIMINATE MR. THIRD CHOICE

First, we can send him

to the ghost stationed at the haunted house in Shincheon-gun.

Thirty years is guaranteed

if he stays clear of the local Grim Reaper.

Next, we can use a strong vengeful ghost

to have him die suddenly.

VENGEFUL GHOST IN UIJEONGBU

He's an experienced killer operating in Uijeongbu.

Since he's close by, we can easily--

No, just drop it.

Chan-sung isn't going anywhere.

I'm keeping him by my side.

What if the tree keeps transforming?

Mago sent him here on purpose.

You must drive him out.

If he was really sent by a deity,

then just chasing him out won't solve anything.

What if flowers blossom?

Flowers?

Let them blossom.

Will there be a day

when colorful flowers blossom and I willingly walk across the Samdo River?

We'll wait and see.

Do you think she's had a change of heart and is ready to go to the other world?

No, I think she probably doesn't believe

that flowers will really blossom.

If that was the case,

she shouldn't have agreed to let him in Room 13.

Her and her mood swings.

I'm just glad that Mr. Koo isn't the perceptive type.

It'll be awkward if he figures out that we led him there on purpose.

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

You wanted me to die or lose my mind.

You're not as dumb as I thought. You're right.

Everyone's disappointed that you didn't go crazy.

How can you all do this to me?

I truly thought of you as my colleagues

and started to like you guys.

Isn't this considered as harassment?

So? Are you here to tattle on them?

Should I give them an earful?

What's the point when you were in on it?

You always ask questions even though you know the answer.

What a weirdo.

Wait.

Where did it go?

Chan-sung,

I lost one of the earrings.

Check the floor for me.

Seriously?

Just let it slide.

They're simply jealous

because you're still alive when they're not.

How dumb do you think I am?

What was this really about?

The tree changed after you came here.

We're worried that our time to leave is near.

Why did you save me though?

If you hadn't, I would've gone crazy.

I wasn't going to intervene,

but a leaf changed my mind.

A leaf?

-This one? -Yes.

That small leaf bothered me.

Are you saying,

I won your heart by this much?

You're doing it again!

Asking questions when you know the answer...

Do they teach you that at Harvard?

Asking questions to induce an answer can lead to determining the truth.

It's a known method by Socrates.

That's what the professors at Harvard taught me.

But this isn't Harvard, so just get back to finding my earring.

Is finding it worth another leaf?

Why you...

Don't bother looking for it.

If you find it, I'll kill you.

You say you'll kill me, but you don't mean it.

You say you're not looking for it, but you want to.

I know you're cynical, but your words are even more cynical.

Is it because you've been living as a ghost for too long?

No, I was born this way.

I've always been cynical.

Did you not catch that in your dream?

You were nice and kind.

Me? Seriously?

Yes, you cared for him with affection.

His name was Yeon-u, I think.

So you saw him too.

I did.

Yeon-u!

You called his name with love,

which is why it got stuck in my head.

Why?

Do you think you might be him?

The thought crossed my mind,

but it doesn't seem likely.

Yeon-u was...

the one who loved me the most.

Do you love me too?

I'm certain that I don't.

Leave then.

Yeon-u.

Man-wol.

With this tree you love,

I'll build the biggest house that anyone has ever seen.

And you can have it.

What?

You'll build a house for me with this tree?

Forget it.

I don't plan on building a house and living with you.

We all grow old. You should think about putting down roots.

I can't let you live under a tarp when you become an old lady.

I could be captured and killed at any moment. That's my life.

I don't even expect to live until I'm old.

But you can.

The fortune teller said

that I'll live a long life just like this tree.

I'm expected to live 100 years, so I'll give you my extra years.

If you do, you'll die.

You're right.

It's okay, though.

I don't mind dying for you,

so you can have it all.

This will find a human groom

for your dead daughter.

Whoever finds the red pocket that holds the deceased's desires

shall be her soul's partner.

I hope that pocket will find us a good man.

Su-min.

We're getting you married

so that you don't get lonely.

No!

I don't want to get married to a stranger.

You're getting off early today.

Yes, I'm a bit tired.

Well, you're the type who makes more work for yourself.

It is my job to tend to the guests

as a hotelier.

I guess you've changed your mindset.

I thought you hated our hotel.

Because I won...

someone's heart.

I'm actually a bit of a softie,

so I repay favors by ten times the amount.

-Sorry? -That means if you're nice to me,

I'll treat you really well.

So please be nice to me.

Did he figure anything out?

What did he say?

He used sarcasm to threaten me.

He said he repays favors by ten times the amount.

I knew Mago wouldn't bring an easy one.

Are you visiting the hotel, ma'am?

Please help me.

Are you all right, ma'am?

You think this is the front desk?

Why do you keep taking the guests to my office instead of their rooms?

She has her reasons.

Every ghost has their reasons.

And what's wrong with her? Is she drunk?

She's exhausted from roaming around too much.

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

I am okay with it.

Fine, then. Go ahead and hug her tight.

She's being forced into a marriage.

She doesn't want to get married to a complete stranger,

and she doesn't want to get a living person possessed.

Is it a ghost wedding?

It's for those who are still alive. Why don't you just go along with it?

You can go up to your room and think it over again.

Our hotel even has a wedding hall.

If you pay the price, we can even hold a party for you.

Go ahead and think about it.

Why don't you go up to your room?

This won't do. Excuse me.

Gosh.

Chan-sung.

I see you're strong enough to carry her.

And you used a handcart meant for cabbages to carry me.

A ghost wedding...

That guest was wearing a Vera Wang wedding dress.

That means she's from a rich family.

-Get ready for the wedding. -Yes, ma'am.

Then I'll need to get a new dress.

And I'll need new jewelry too.

Shoes, a purse,

and what else will I need?

Gosh, there's so much to prepare.

Chan-sung should

hurry up and get that money for the Baekdu Mountain painting.

Good morning!

Good morning, Sanchez.

You're up?

I guess you got some sleep last night.

Yes, I slept well. I didn't even dream this time.

Maybe it was because I was tired.

Did you buy a lottery ticket? You want to have a lucky dream?

No, I was expecting someone in my dreams.

Your ex-girlfriend?

The ex-boyfriend of a girl I know.

Or her ex-boyfriends.

It's not a dream, but you missed a call from your friend.

My friend?

Who?

Man-wol.

Who?

Man-wol, from your hotel.

Your phone kept ringing, so I just answered it.

Man-wol

told me to ask you when you'd get the money for the painting.

Sanchez,

did you really call her by her name, Man-wol?

Didn't she get mad and yell at you?

She agreed to call me by my name too. Just Sanchez.

We're even following each other on our social media.

You know what? She's actually

quite friendly and polite. Right?

Maybe it's because of her job?

It seemed like she's used to being polite.

She must have known that Sanchez is really rich.

That's why he was unharmed.

"Man-wol"?

-Put it right there. -Yes, ma'am.

Hyeon-jung, you said you know how to play the piano, right?

Practice.

Yes, ma'am.

It's been so long since we had a party. I'm so excited.

It's better to have many guests for the party,

so should I invite some guests who are free?

You think it'll look like a wedding

if there are tons of ghosts in here? It'll seem like a funeral.

As few as possible.

Yes, ma'am. By the way, have we found the groom yet?

If some unlucky human finds that red pocket,

he'll be the groom, I suppose.

The bride doesn't seem to want an arranged marriage like this.

Mr. Koo went to find the red pocket,

so he could return it to her parents and talk them out of it.

There won't be a wedding if he finds it first, right?

Chan-sung left to find the red pocket?

Yes, he's very diligent, so he's probably looking for it already.

If he finds it, it'll cause trouble.

Why?

Will he become the groom

if he finds it first?

He's been caring so much about ghosts. Now he's going to marry one.

The bride didn't want to get married to a complete stranger.

But I bet she'll be okay with marrying Mr. Koo.

That's good news, Ms. Jang.

Ms. Jang, are you going to let him get married?

Darn you!

I heard the red pocket fell somewhere near the lake.

Chan-sung, you're still looking for it?

What are you looking for? I'll help you find it.

No, it's okay.

Don't mind me, and carry on. You should ride another lap.

It's going to rain soon.

Then I'll go for one more lap. Let's go home once I'm done.

Okay.

What are you doing here?

Can't you see?

I'm on a picnic.

Why are you on a picnic? It's hot outside.

Fine.

Let me answer the question that you already know the answer to.

I'm here to see you.

I don't want you to look for that red pocket.

Just leave it.

Are you worried I might have to marry her if I find it?

Chan-sung, I'm against this marriage.

I can't accept it.

Just let some other guy pick it up.

She doesn't want to marry someone she doesn't know.

Whoever picks it up will get startled. If I find it,

you'll take care of it for me.

You think I'll have your back? Is that why you're being reckless?

Are you using that to find it?

Can you see where it is?

I see it.

What's wrong with the bike?

I found it.

Chan-sung, you'll get to eat at your friend's wedding.

Sanchez!

What is this?

What the hell?

Sanchez!

Where is he?

Sanchez, are you okay?

I don't know if it's because of the rain, but it's really cold.

And maybe because of the rain,

I saw something really weird.

Chan-sung, I saw a strange woman

in our house earlier.

And I think she's still here. I'm so scared.

What should I do?

Sanchez.

You should go inside and get some sleep.

Let me figure this out.

Hello?

Are you Mr. Koo, the manager at Hotel del Luna?

Yes, that's me.

I got a call from that hotel

saying they'd like to hold a wedding for Su-min.

Did you say you got a call from the owner of our hotel?

Yes.

Are you here because of this?

I didn't know there was a hotel like this in Seoul.

Welcome.

I see that our manager safely brought you here.

Now, let's start discussing the wedding in earnest.

Come this way.

This is where the wedding will take place.

We can prepare a banquet

and provide a suite for her just like any other wedding.

If you can do that, Su-min won't end up dying a lonely soul.

Please prepare the best of everything.

We're doing this for our child.

We'll pay and give you anything that's necessary.

By the way, who's the groom?

You're forcing him to marry her against his will.

Don't you think you'd feel awkward to meet the groom?

Are you going to congratulate him or something?

Then I guess it'd be best not to meet him.

We'll entrust you with everything.

We'll do our best to prepare a wedding

that will satisfy everyone.

I knew they'd be rich.

This is a black card that has no limit.

Parents really have no limit when it comes to loving their kids.

This is my cup of tea.

What are you planning to do?

I'm going to prepare a wedding.

Sanchez got really shocked.

He's practically stupefied.

It's because he's weak-hearted.

That's why we should hold a wedding and make her leave as soon as possible.

Is Sanchez really going to be okay once the wedding's over?

Yes.

It's not like they're going to register their marriage.

Just think of it as a short nightmare.

There's so much to prepare. We'll get so busy.

Chan-sung, let's hurry.

I wonder if this is really going to be okay.

God, I want to pee so bad.

I'm about to burst, but I'm too scared to go to the bathroom.

When is Chan-sung coming home?

Actually, no.

It's okay. I can do it.

So we were hurrying to go shopping?

It's a wedding after all. It should look sparkly.

Are we here to buy wedding gifts?

Are these necessary for this wedding?

This one looks nice too.

Why do we only have ten fingers?

I wish I could put on more than ten.

Are we here to buy your rings?

You said we should hurry for Sanchez.

This is no time to look at rings.

I got my hands on a credit card without a limit.

If you're going to nag, go wait outside.

I only have one neck, so I can only wear one necklace.

Wearing several necklaces is becoming a thing.

I like that.

Bring me some more.

Her parents didn't give you a credit card to pay for your jewelry.

It's meant to be used for the wedding.

Exactly. I'm using their money for the wedding.

The more money I use for this wedding,

the more relieved they will feel.

Did you arrange the wedding so you could do this?

I'll return the credit card and burn up the pocket.

Go ahead.

If you do that, your friend

will have to live the rest of his life with the ghost bride.

The red pocket encompasses a strong desire.

That desire tied them together with a red thread,

so that they're forced to be together.

If you burn the pocket,

the bride will never get to go to the afterlife.

Can't you just cut their tie?

I'm not the almighty. Do you know how hard that is?

We'll just have them get married, then send the bride to the afterlife.

That's what our hotel can do.

Ma'am, please come to this side.

PHARMACY 11-28 YAKJAE-GOLMOKGIL, GYEONGDONG MARKET

HERB MEDICINE MARKET

ORIENTAL HERBAL CLINIC

HEALTH CARE CENTER

PHARMACY

Ma'am.

You're really here.

Who are you?

I'm...

I'm Koo Chan-sung from Hotel del Luna.

You told me to come here to look for you when we met on the subway.

That wasn't me.

That was my eldest sister.

Hey!

The weather outside is amazing!

Who are you?

He came from Hotel del Luna to find our eldest sister.

Hotel del Luna?

Our sister goes there often to pick flowers, doesn't she?

Are you twins?

I mean, triplets?

There are more than three of us.

Why are you asking for our sister anyway?

There will be a ghost wedding at Hotel del Luna?

The bride doesn't want a wedding she never asked for,

and the groom is shivering in fear.

Is there a way to fix this?

Like what your boss said,

it'd be best to do the wedding

for the sake of those who are alive.

I guess we don't have a choice but to hold the wedding.

I know! We could switch the groom.

Instead of someone living,

you could find someone dead as her groom.

Where are we going to find a dead groom?

You have a lot of guests at your hotel.

You're right.

Right?

The bride can choose a groom she likes

to give the red pocket.

The two ghosts can get together

and head over to the afterlife, holding hands.

Yes, I'll try that.

Thank you. I'll get going.

Hey.

You must be tired from working at night.

You probably can't sleep well.

Try this one. I'm sure it'll help.

It's herb tonic tea.

Thank you.

I think she likes you.

That's precious medicine.

You'll feel energetic even from a short nap.

Really?

Thank you.

Great.

I narrowed it down to guests who died before getting married.

Okay.

I better visit them one by one to ask if they're interested.

Let's start with Room 507.

I'm sorry to interrupt.

But are you interested in going on a blind date?

We'll now start the date between Ms. Lee Su-min

and her five prospect grooms.

Why are you sitting there?

Because I want to get married too.

Employees can't participate. Get back here.

What?

Get over here.

What?

I even got changed for this. This is unfair.

We'll start over again.

Due to the time limit, we'll make it short.

Please greet each other while the hourglass is running.

Tell her about what you did when you were alive.

I hope you'll get to have sincere conversations.

Gosh, Chan-sung is wasting his time again.

At least, the bride will get to marry a groom

whom she can connect better with.

I don't know. I doubt there will be a man the bride likes.

I like this one.

As you might have noticed,

my friend has a weak heart and won't be able to do the wedding.

You should choose one of them to leave for the afterlife together.

It's the best I can do for you.

Please make sure to keep time, everyone.

We'll start with the table number one.

Please give the red pocket to the person you like.

Let's begin.

Please take it.

If I have a wedding with one of them, I must go with him.

I want to go alone.

I want you, a human, to take it so I can do that.

But...

If you won't, I'll just stick to the original plan.

Please bring your friend.

What?

Who did she pick as her husband again?

She said she wants to have a wedding with Mr. Koo.

Mr. Koo accepted it, so they are getting ready now.

Will you be the officiant?

Hyeon-jung,

go to Ms. Fourth Choice right now.

Why?

Are you going to send Mr. Koo

to the afterlife together with the bride?

I don't even know what I'm doing now.

Okay.

Let's just think this is a dream.

This is just a meaningless dream.

Everything will be gone once I wake up.

All right.

I'm just going to have a short dream.

Ms. Jang, are you getting married?

What?

Aren't you the one getting married?

GROOM'S ROOM

I guess I had a dream just now.

Chan-sung.

How dare you decide to get married without my permission?

Why do I need your permission when I'm the one getting married?

So are you really going to marry her?

This is why you should have helped her when she came to you,

saying she didn't want to get married.

Do you think she doesn't want to get married?

No way. She's a ghost that is mad about getting married.

The strong desires sealed here

belong to that woman who will never leave

before she gets married.

What a beautiful bride.

I heard there's a wedding at Hotel del Luna, and I came by.

This is my wedding gift for the bride.

You get married to become happy.

Chan-sung.

I'll save you again.

You don't have to have the unwanted wedding.

Then what do I do with this? You said this can't be removed.

We should let her have a wedding as she wishes.

I'm going to bring her real groom whom she can never...

leave behind.

This lady is your girlfriend, right?

Your girlfriend is marrying some other guy.

Hey, that's not funny.

I'm not kidding. If you want to stop the wedding,

you need to go marry her.

The groom that you actually want to marry,

I brought him here.

We have such a great customer service, don't we?

It looks like you can finally marry

the person you never got over even after you died.

You must be

very happy.

He should be here any minute now.

Su-min.

When the wedding is over,

the man will die.

The bride will take her man to the afterlife with her.

I wonder if Chan-sung noticed.

That's why the man's parents tried to marry her off to anyone

through a ghost wedding.

The man's parents? They weren't the bride's parents?

It was the man's parents who requested to hold the wedding.

They were afraid the woman would take their son with her.

Su-min is dead.

I can't let you go with her.

Why doesn't it come off?

Su-min, please let my son go. Please...

Please let him go!

Ms. Lee, stop. You shouldn't do this.

Let's be together forever.

Ms. Lee, he's still alive.

Stop right now!

Ms. Lee!

No.

We must stop.

Go back.

What's the matter, Su-min?

Go!

Su-min.

It's hard,

but sometimes it's easier to let go than hold on.

I love you.

Please be happy.

This place looks cooler than I imagined.

I'll start working as the manager right away.

You can't yet. We have Mr. Koo.

Then I'll be the intern for now.

Let me start training as an intern.

Listen, friend.

It's getting late.

You should go home to sleep so you can go to school tomorrow.

Hey.

Hey.

I'm sorry I used you in such a vulgar way.

I'm sure you haven't survived since the Tang Dynasty

to be used that way.

Mi-ra.

It's been a while. I'm here to see Chan-sung.

Thank you for helping me cut the tie before I leave.

I hope your journey will be comfortable.

Those scissors are from the third crone, right?

Did she come to my hotel without me knowing?

He's the one who went to see Mago.

Now the crones are all helping Chan-sung together?

You're the one that Mago is helping.

He'll be the one to see you off.

I felt proud to see my guests off at my previous hotel,

but I feel lonely here.

That's because you won't ever see them again.

Chan-sung.

You're doing a good job.

Mago was right about you.

I get why she likes you.

Did you know I met with her?

She told me to take good care of you,

so that leaves will grow

and flowers will bloom.

You...

Do you still see me in your dreams?

Yes.

I hope you keep it up and take good care of me

and then...

see me off.

That's what Mago wants.

I'll become your last guest

because you are my cup of tea.

Chan-sung.

When you see me off,

don't feel lonely.

He's not answering his phone.

What did you say?

Your Majesty!

He's dressed like a king of Joseon.

Which one is he?

I'm really worried about you.

Why are you doing this to me?

Because I cannot have you reincarnated as a dog or a pig.

You could get kicked out at this rate--

You're doing a great job.

One, two, three, we can do it!

I hate being poor.

I'm going to keep eating caviar and champagne.

He has a girlfriend?

-I have her picture. -Forget it. Don't tell me.

Why are you telling me that?

Is she pretty?
