PORTRAYED IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

I have encountered my fair share of people living in this palace.

Do you know of the most foolish kind though?

Those who wish for things they can never have

and end up losing all that they have as a result.

You are just like them.

Did my acknowledging

your help in saving the royal family go to your head?

My Queen,

I was only--

I do not wish to see you again.

If I happen to see the face of yours again,

you will not be able to go back alive.

Mother, what do you mean marriage?

-It does not make sense. -Of course it does.

It was only pushed back until you regained your health.

But...

I am not--

Do not worry.

Your bride-to-be has already been chosen as Lord Kim Jin's daughter

whom you have always been fond of.

Mother,

you should know that my heart beats for another.

My son, in order to strengthen royal authority,

you need power and armed forces.

Let your feelings for that girl only remain in your heart.

Better yet,

erase her existence from your heart.

Erase her existence?

-How could-- -If you will not,

I will do it for you.

Do you finally believe me, Crown Prince?

EPISODE 10

I once woke up from a coma after being in an accident.

Ever since then,

I've been able to remember my past life.

The memories are vivid as if I experienced them yesterday.

How did you recognize me though?

Because I'm your mother.

Because I was your mother.

You take after your father a lot.

However, your eyes were a dead giveaway.

I could tell you aren't from the Living Realm.

I see.

Ever since I began to remember my past life,

I thought about my son who lived

a heart-aching life.

Has he been reincarnated?

If he has,

would he be living peacefully?

But then again, I even worried

if he'd be haunted by his past life like I am.

I'm sorry. Please forgive me.

It's my fault for not realizing the extent of my son's feelings.

I'm the one to blame.

No.

Please don't.

There's no need to apologize for what happened 500 years ago.

I don't deserve it anyway.

I'm the son who did the unthinkable and broke his parents' hearts.

It's me who should apologize.

I must've been reincarnated

so that we could meet again.

But may I ask why you're living this way

without being reborn?

I'm trying to keep the promise

I was never able to in my past life.

Why is it just you? Where's Guibanjang?

He met a friend on the street.

He doesn't have any friends.

I know what's going on. Which spirit was it?

It was actually a human. An ordinary woman.

A woman?

Unbelievable.

He thinks he can slack off now that I only have two more to go?

You're right. You only have two more to go.

At the beginning, even one seemed impossible.

Right.

Remember how you used to bring over just about anyone?

And you also stole my ssanggapju.

I still remember you weeping in the Dream World.

Unbelievable.

I did that, didn't I?

Miss, what if we keep on doing this?

I'm sad to see it come to an end when I've only just gotten the hang of it.

You wouldn't say that after helping 100,000 souls.

Talk about it being tedious.

How about another 10,000 souls?

No, just about 1,000 more.

I know I can do even better now.

Is this because you know I'll be going to Hell?

You'll be doing a good deed, so why can't you just ask--

It's like I said.

I'm no longer attached to the Living Realm and have no desire to be reborn.

It may be like that for you, but I don't want to see you go.

I really don't.

Even if we never meet again,

I want you to live a peaceful life

or a happy one as someone new.

That's what I want.

I didn't agree to serve this punishment

so that I could stay away from Hell.

There's another reason.

Because of my actions, someone precious to me

has been suffering for 500 years.

That person's suffering will finally end once I reach my quota.

However,

there's no way for me to make up

for the 500 years of agony.

It is why I have no one but myself to blame

for ending up in the Hell of Extinction.

So let's not talk about it anymore, okay?

Got it?

How dare you!

You are not royalty down here, my boy.

Who do you think you are choosing your own destination?

You must have lost your mind.

You can throw me in a pit of fire or vipers.

All I want is to be with Weol-ju.

Please let me be with her.

Shut it!

You are a murderer who not only

beheaded his childhood friend but took his own life.

You are going nowhere but the Hell of Repetition.

There, your flesh

will be scored and slit

and you will sit in your own feces while insects eat away at you.

However, had that Won-hyung lived,

many more would have died.

You eliminated a threat

which I am willing to take into account.

Then...

Yi Hon, you do not hesitate to fight against injustice

and are a skilled warrior.

It is why I am sending you to the Afterlife Police Agency.

Repent of your sins as you uphold the law.

I am truly grateful.

However, I would still like to know where Weol-ju is.

She is also serving the punishment that she was sentenced to,

so there is no need to worry.

Instead, focus on your task at hand.

I will keep tabs on you

and send you to Weol-ju

if you do your due diligence and serve the agency well.

Do you mean that?

Thank you.

Thank you, Yeomradaewang.

MYSTIC POP-UP BAR

A young man and woman should want to be connected at the hip.

Don't give up on Yeo-rin and try again with her.

I haven't given up.

I heard that I'm the type that grows on people, so I'm taking my time.

You probably don't approve though, right?

What? Why would I not approve?

Saying that would land you in Hell.

Didn't you say

that Yeo-rin seemed like the type to string men along.

My gosh.

That was my way of complimenting her.

Girls should know how to play hard to get.

Not being able to do so like me won't get you very far.

You don't know how to play hard to get?

You're as sly as a leopard cat if you ask me.

A leopard cat? What's that?

He's talking about a wildcat.

And he's not wrong.

How am I a wildcat when I'm this innocent and naive?

I mindlessly believed a man's confession of love

and believed him when he said he'd protect me.

I'm in this mess right now because I blindly trusted the man.

The man who betrayed you?

The one who betrayed her?

Jeez, it's dusty in here. Did you mop the floor today?

I'll just have to do it again.

Guibanjang, you dropped your necklace.

What?

What's that? Isn't it a jade ring?

Is it for this woman you're seeing?

Of course not.

Gosh, you're old-fashioned. Who likes jade rings these days?

There should at least be a diamond.

As if I have the money.

It's not like you pay me, Weol-ju.

The salary you owe me

would be enough to buy trucks of diamonds.

She's Weol-ju?

My son,

you're with Weol-ju like you have always wanted.
