Near the end of the Chosun Dynasty

Sung-soo, don't cry. Sung-soo.

Look like it's going to rain.

A tiger will come for you if you keep crying, Sung-soo.

Sook-jung!

Oh goodness.

Sook-jung, I missed you.

Sook-jung! Sook-jung!

Who is it?

Master of Gamae, is that you?

- Sook-jung! - What are you doing here?

You'll get into big trouble.

Her husband will be here soon, so you must go.

Ma'am, I missed Sook-jung very much. Let me meet her just once.

You fool.

When did you leave Gamae village?

- Ma'am, I'm married now. - I see.

But I ran out on our first night.

Ma'am.

Sook-jung! Please open the door!

Please stop it and accept your fate.

She belongs to this family now, so forget about her and live on.

Time heals all wounds.

Oh goodness.

Ma'am, I will never show up again,

so please let me see her just this once.

- Sook-jung! Sook-jung! - Who goes there?

- Oh no. - Who are you?

- Master of Gamae village. - Who?

Gamae village? Catch him!

Hey, you! Hey, you!

You bitch!

How dare you cheat on me?

- You are speaking out of line. - What did you say? You filthy whore!

I saw it with my very own eyes, but how can you lie to me?

I'm going to rip your head apart, you bitch!

I don't care what you do to my body,

but don't falsely accuse me.

- What did you say, you bitch! - Master! Master!

- Suk-won? - Yes!

- So did you catch him? - The forest was too thick.

- You mean you lost him? - Yes

You son of a bitch! You bastard!

I'll catch him myself.

I'll only feel better after I catch him

and cut him open to see blood! Rotten bastard.

What are you doing just sitting there?

Hurry and get his eldest brother.

You son of a bitch! You son of a bitch!

The eldest brother has arrived. Hurry and get up.

- She's swallowed poison. - Poison?

You spiteful girl.

- She acted just like a snake. - That dumb fool.

Those who die from taking poison will see their descendents die in pain.

This family is ruined now.

Brother, what are you doing here?

You dumb fool!

Because of your damn temper!

What's this blood on you?

- What's this blood? - You poor boy.

Now you'll grow up without any parents.

Let's go.

Sung-soo!

I'll give you money, so hide and never show up.

Brother!

- Let's go. - Sung-soo!

- Let's go. - Sung-soo!

18 years later

Why is the weather so awful today?

But the shaman said this was a good day to wed.

The groom has disappeared?

Oh no, the groom has disappeared.

- Suk-won ! - Yes?

- What's going on? - Sung-soo must be possessed by the ghost.

Oh no, the haunted house!

Ma'am!

Ma'am!

The groom has been possessed by the ghost from that haunted house.

Black crow! Black crow!

Please let my mom bring a lot of food!

Sung-soo! Master!

Sung-soo, what are you doing here?

The bride is waiting for you. Let's go.

Why can't I come here?

Auntie, isn't this my home?

Didn't I tell you that the ghost that poisoned itself will suck your blood?

So what are you doing here?

Didn't you hear the ghost beating the laundry with a stick?

The ghost will come out soon, so let's go.

Hurry.

You snake-like ghost.

Why did you poison yourself and die?

Be gone all you ghosts!

Go away!

- Let's go. - Master!

- What are you waiting for? - Let's go!

- Master, let's go. - Let's go, okay?

30 years later

Look grandma. No boat comes there.

Watch out.

Hurry up.

Since the waves were rough, I bet Yong-bin got sea sick.

You're probably right. I'm worried.

I hope she chewed some ginseng.

Mother, Yong-bin is coming!

Where? Where is she?

Isn't that Hang-sub?

- Yong-bin! - Welcome back.

- Mother! - Good to see you.

- You've lost a lot of weight. - Why do you think so?

Did you get sea sick? Ate the ginseng I sent you?

- Hi, Yong-oak. - Did you two come together again?

Yes. How is the fishery doing?

Her father never leaves his room.

Now he finally regrets giving up the drug store.

What do you mean 'regret'? He made the right choice.

New foreign drugs keep coming out.

- Yong-oak, I'll carry it. - No, I'm okay.

- Shall I carry it for you? - I'm okay.

Buy some dried cod! They're delicious. Buy some.

What is it?

Why? Don't you have gas lamps in Seoul?

We have them in Seoul as well.

But I only feel attached to lamps from Tongyoung city.

What's there to be attached to when it comes to lamps?

How is Yong-ran doing?

Yong-ran resembles her grandmother, who drank the poison and killed herself.

Mom, that's an awful thing to say.

Yong-sook will do okay even if she's on her own now, right?

The eldest daughter needs to live well for the rest to follow suit.

Don't believe in those useless superstitions.

How a person does depends on one's efforts.

It all depends on one's fate.

- Father! - I'm late.

- What are you doing here? - Mrs. Kim, how are you?

Hello.

Tell Mr. Kim to stop making money and have some fun sometimes.

What money?

All the useful fisheries are being stolen by the Japanese.

- Shh! Let's go! - Let's go.

- Han-dol! - Yes?

- Yeo-moon, Yong-bin is here. - Welcome back.

- How have you been? - Had a hard time, huh?

Hey, Yong-ran!

Your sister came back from Seoul. Come say hi. Hurry outside.

Who cares if she's here?

I can't stand her bad attitude.

Hurry and come inside.

- I'll go say hi to father first. - Okay.

Father, it's me, Yong-bin.

Uhmmm...

I'll be going now.

Wash up and then go stretch your legs and take a rest.

You must be hungry. I'll go buy some fresh meat.

Yeo-moon, let's go to the market.

- Come back safely. - I will.

Master Kim, are you at home?

Oh, when did you arrive?

- Just now. - I see.

- Father is in his room. - And Mrs. Kim?

- She went to the market. - I see.

- Yeo-moon! - She went with mother to the market.

- Han-dol! - How can I help you?

- I just wanted some water. - I'll get it for you.

No, please don't. I'll get it myself.

- I'll pour it in a bowl for you. - That's okay.

- Sailor boy is here! - What's wrong with you?

Watch your mouth.

A sailor boy is a sailor boy. What else is he?

Watch what you say.

Otherwise that attitude of yours will get you slapped one day.

That sailor boy hit me? Out of the question!

If he hits you, what can you do?

You think he'll let you slide because you're the master's daughter?

If he hits me, I'll snap his neck.

I don't like him because he's cocky.

Yong-ran, you'll never get married with that attitude of yours.

Worry about yourself and get married.

You're unbelievable.

Who the hell does he think he is ordering Han-dol around like that?

Your legs!
