EPISODE 2

-And what's next for you? -First time in Joseon?

SECOND CLASS

-How's your wife? -I'm hungry.

Get out of my way.

Why, you little--

Buzz off.

FIRST CLASS

Gosh, it's packed.

Oh, over here.

What are you looking at?

Hey, didn't you learn any manners?

Cigarettes?

Hey, how dare you smoke in here! Put it out right now!

There's a kid and a dog here. You wanna fight me?

Didn't you learn any manners?

Hurry up! Put it out!

Sorry for shouting.

VIP ROOM

Oh, goodness. I almost missed the train.

It's an important day, so please decorate it nice.

Yes, ma'am.

I need to look pretty too.

I'm so nervous.

Everything look good?

CARGO COMPARTMENT

Where on earth is Lord Lee Yeon?

Did he leave me in this era and return home alone?

Excuse me. Where is this train headed?

Manchuria.

Where in Manchuria?

Kamo Unit. Now, sit down!

Kamo Unit? I've heard of it somewhere…

Kwantung Army's Epidemic Prevention department.

They are support troops that supply water to the army.

Then it's not dangerous, right?

Thank goodness.

Manshu Detachment 731?

You're so beautiful.

By any chance, are you a movie star?

I'll become one soon.

I'm participating in the Miss Joseon Pageant held by Seonwoo Daily .

What's that?

It's where Joseon's most beautiful woman will be chosen.

-Here. -You eat it.

I know how much you like eggs.

THIS MORNING

So you're saying that my future self sent you here?

You completed your mission, but much later than your allotted time.

My brother was dying.

Isn't that your choice, after all?

"Should I go back or stay here and save my brother?"

Let me go. Please?

-I have someone waiting for me at home. -Try opening it, then.

Is there no other way to go home?

Well…

there's always a way, but…

-What is it? -Go run an errand.

Then I'll tell you.

The Legendary Pipe is on the train that left Busan this morning.

The Legendary Pipe fell into the hands of the Japanese?

The old hag even sealed the item.

And they broke the seal?

So they're no ordinary guys.

If you play the pipe well enough, you can even blow up an entire mountain.

We have an hour left to Gyeongseong.

Let's find it before they get off and scatter.

So it's in this very compartment.

But we don't know who has it?

There are seven Japanese in first class.

We'll have to torture them one by one.

-Wait for it. -What?

An overpass is coming up soon.

So, no one came back alive?

From Unit 731?

Please help me. I have to get out of here.

You all wish to risk your lives by listening to some guy's story?

I want to go.

My mom and dad are sick.

I want to go too.

I don't want to die in Manchuria.

If I die, I'll die in my hometown.

Have you gone nuts? You'll get us all killed.

I just need that door to open.

Just the door.

All right. Let's go!

Go!

We're almost at the overpass.

Hey, take all you can!

What's this? Hey, where are you touching?

What the-- Hey, you!

Help!

Hey, get your hands off me!

He's disappeared.

Fire! There's a fire!

Fire, fire!

What are you doing, you punks?

-It's a fire! It's a fire! -Move aside!

Now!

-Hey, hey. What's going on? -What?

Thieves! Thieves!

-What? -There's a thief!

Hey, someone touched me here and--

-Here too! -Oh, dear. My Bok-sil! Bok-sil!

My bag's gone!

My jewelry!

Hey, someone touched me here too.

And over here!

Anyway, whoever it is--

I've lost my diamond ring!

Hey, your guys did this?

You said you needed the Legendary Pipe.

It's your reward for saving my life.

A fox always repays kindness, right?

Sure.

-What are you looking at? Get out! -Get the hell out!

What is your deal, woman?

Me?

-A pretty girl who is good at fighting. -I see.

Oh, don't bother helping me. I'm just warming up here.

How fun.

Next, you.

First class was robbed.

-What? -There's a riot at the back!

Block the exits!

From here on, no one gets off this train. You guys, to the front.

Yes, sir.

-And you guys follow me. -Yes, sir!

Come on. Let's go!

Grab my hand!

I'm going to be accused of being a thief now.

-Pick something. -Why steal the dog?

And why this stinky thing?

Once my guys start stealing, they take every last thing, you know.

You say that like you're proud.

Sorry, I'm sorry.

Damn it.

Gosh.

Hey, let's go!

Let's go!

Did you just hit me?

I'm supposed to look my prettiest today.

The item belongs to the Empire of Japan.

No, it doesn't. It belongs to Hong-ju.

Not bad. You're not human, huh?

Demons posing as humans aren't only in Joseon, you know.

Bring it on! Who the hell are you?

It's mine!

Shit!

Damn it.

Hey, the Legendary Pipe isn't here.

Boss! Boss!

The pipe-- It got stolen from me.

-By whom? -By whom?

By me.

VIP ROOM

Welcome, sir!

What's all this?

Long time no see, fox.

FORMER MOUNTAIN GOD OF THE WEST

AKA KING OF THE WILD, THE EAGLE-OWL

No way. It can't be.

Ryu Hong-ju, what are you doing here?

I missed you.

Still haven't forgotten that human girl?

-Get your hand off my thigh. -Sure. You're still modest.

Is she an ally or an enemy?

She's your future sister-in-law.

Sister-in-law?

Stop playing hard to get and come live with me now.

I heard you're looking for this.

Yes, Hong-ju. I'll be taking this appreciatively.

-But we can't get married. -Why not?

You see, marriage requires the consent of both parties, but I--

How dare you reject me?

I bought a dress just for today.

I even got my hair done.

And flowers-- I got all these flowers too.

But you humiliated me.

Rang, escape while you can.

Sure. You're on your own with this.

-Go get my wedding gift. -Yes, ma'am.

And you, follow me.

Look! It's that guy over there.

That guy, that guy!

It's that guy! Grab every single one!

You shits must have a death wish. Hurry, take care of 'em.

-Move it! Move! -Lord Lee Yeon…

Who's the mastermind?

-Please spare-- -Tell me, you bastard!

No.

It's been a while.

The Jirisan crazy fox is back.

Why won't you give it to me?

Give you what?

You can give it to me once, right?
