I need your love.

Your love.

Your love

can help me become human.

My love?

Did you say "love"?

That's right.

Only your blood that is full of love

can turn me into a human being.

My blood?

HEARTBEAT EPISODE 10

Why though?

Why must it be my blood?

Because you awoke me.

No human

can open a coffin occupied by a vampire.

However, you managed the impossible.

On top of that,

you also bit me.

I think that's when it started.

After that moment, a link formed between us.

A link?

My wound throbs whenever you're in danger.

It's like you're sending me a signal.

And most importantly,

your eyes.

I can only see my reflection in your eyes.

You said before

that my blood is full of poison.

That it's far too poisonous even for a vampire to drink.

So why are you saying that after all this time?

If you had told me sooner--

You would've left me.

Because people are afraid of vampires.

Would you have remained by my side knowing that I needed to drink your blood

in order to become human?

Then where do we go from here?

You need my blood.

-Does that mean I'll die? -Don't jump to conclusions.

I'm not saying I'm going to take your life.

I only wish for your poisonous blood

to be warmed up and filled with love.

And I ask that you share your warmth with me

since I was one day short of becoming human.

Woo-hyeol,

human blood is classified as type A, B, or O.

Blood full of love?

I don't get it.

I know nothing of the sort.

I must find a half-vampire with a scar on their body.

It's the only way to lift

this damn curse.

It won't be easy though.

Both my father and grandfather failed miserably.

And I don't know how much time I have left.

You don't need to say more.

I will end the curse in any way I can.

And I'll help in any way I can.

Mr. Ko.

You look like a dead man walking.

I guess things aren't going well.

Could you please refrain from talking about death around me?

Right.

Sorry about that.

I ended up telling her everything.

I told her that I need blood full of love

to become human.

Is that so?

How did she respond?

She didn't believe me.

What do you mean by that?

She said she doesn't believe one can have blood that is full of love

and that she knows nothing of the sort.

I guess it can be difficult for humans to understand.

Only those who have been in love know how to love.

I've never been in love,

so I have no love to give anyone.

On top of that, I'm struggling to even love myself right now.

And I asked someone like that for blood full of love.

Flowers that bloom on a dead tree.

How pitiful.

What's this?

Brace yourself before opening it.

What in the world is it?

See?

What did I tell you?

He's a total lunatic.

This is what Seon Woo-hyeol had?

I found a hidden space in the basement of Shaded Oasis.

I went down there following a hunch

and stumbled on this.

Why does he have something that looks centuries old?

It feels like I'm looking at my past self.

I must find out

who this woman is.

I may not know for sure,

but I bet it'll blow your mind.

What do you mean by that?

Do you know something more?

Give and take.

Pay for my services first.

Did you sleep well last night?

How could I after hearing all that?

Then you must be tired.

I thought all night about what you said.

And?

I'm afraid it won't happen.

I see.

I wouldn't mind giving you my blood at all

since it's the same as blood donation.

But what you want is blood full of love.

What must one do to have blood full of love?

Can that even happen?

Rather than saying you can't,

why don't you give it a try?

I'll try my best as well.

No amount of effort can change one's blood.

Just don't get your hopes up

since it's not something I can control.

All right.

Hello?

What?

Hold on. Do-sik is what?

Right.

Thank you for letting me know.

Did something happen to Do-sik?

He collapsed and is in the hospital.

-I'm heading out. -Okay.

She seems quite concerned about him.

Judging by her reaction, it doesn't seem completely hopeless.

GUKIL JUNGANG MEDICAL CENTER

Come in.

In-hae, how did you...

Are you okay?

What?

Right, well...

I didn't want you to see me like this.

That's what you're worried about?

What did the doctor say? Are the test results back?

I heard you suddenly collapsed.

Why are you laughing?

There's nothing funny about the situation.

There's that scary expression of yours.

Do-sik.

My tests came back clean. I'm fine.

-Are you sure? -Yes.

If I had known,

I would've gotten you supplements rather than a necktie.

This is much better than a gift.

You visiting me in the hospital

and worrying about me.

So this is how it feels to have someone care about you.

I see you were outside.

What brings you by at this hour?

Isn't it obvious? I'm here to see you.

Didn't you miss me?

You never called me after saying such things.

Check the bags under my eyes.

Your words kept me curious all night.

I apologize. It wasn't my intention.

Is Ms. Joo inside?

Well...

She hurried out after hearing that Do-sik was in the hospital.

Mr. Shin?

Is he ill?

I'm not aware of the details.

Then why don't we talk first?

Come in.

I found a hidden space in the basement of Shaded Oasis.

What did you have to say?

I've been wondering for some time.

What's over there?

Can I take a look?

It's fine if you feel uncomfortable.

It's all right.

You can go take a look.

Oh, my.

This is where you're staying?

How fascinating.

It's like I'm in a different world

as if time has stopped in this room a long time ago.

Goodness.

It's so cool.

You seem to like the space.

I really do.

They say one's room

reflects who that person is.

It's like I'm seeing who you are inside.

But for some reason,

it looks a bit lonely.

Isn't it lonely to be alone in such a secret space?

There isn't a better place to wait for someone.

Here, you can long for that person

without realizing that time is passing by.

Is this related to that woman named Hae-sun?

You told me when we first met outside the mansion

that not a day went by without thinking of her.
