From Now, Showtime! (Showtime Begins! / Jigeumbuteo Showtime! / 지금부터, 쇼타임!)

(All characters, locations, groups, incidents are fictional.)

General.

You didn't have to send me off like this.

As your Worshipping Spirit,

I ought to accompany you to the other world.

I possessed your body when you were 19 years old.

And you spent all of your life serving me.

So you earned this.

How funny life is.

When I was alive, I thought we had such long lives...

and they would never end.

But in retrospect,

life is like a fleeting moment.

But unlike the others, you were able to clear your karma.

And you are headed to a good place now.

Goodness. I am envious of you.

I'm sorry to leave without you.

I really hoped to see you enter Nirvana in my lifetime.

I have too much karma to settle. What could you do about it?

You did everything you could.

My grandson is very stubborn.

I'm worried that he might cause you trouble.

Don't you know who I am? I'm Choi Geom.

I have been a deity for a very long time.

Do you think...

he's the first Chosen Pupil to reject me and run away?

No matter what he tries, he's still a human.

He can't go against a deity.

Don't worry.

As soon as I go back, the first thing I do will be...

teaching that darn brat a lesson.

What are you doing?

It was you.

This.

It's a broken piece of a headlight found at the scene of a hit and run.

It fits your broken headlight.

There was a minor accident last night,

but are you saying that proves I'm the culprit?

Last night, you hit a man and abandoned his body.

While you were doing that, you lost the helmet.

Along with the dashcam that recorded the accident.

What you're trying to delete is...

not your business secret, but the scene of the accident.

You're jumping too fast to the conclusion.

Then how about this?

Cornet bread.

You asked the bakery clerk...

about the man who bought cornet bread specifically.

Only three people know that Min Ho bought cornet bread.

Min Ho, who wrote this card, me, who picked up this card,

and the culprit.

That's because...

- Help me. - A Reum.

I don't get what's going on. Can you explain?

Checkmate. Trapped. Game over.

Arrested.

She's taking out her handcuffs.

Cha Cha Woong.

You're under arrest for drunken hit and run...

and abandonment of a dead body.

You have the right to remain silent. You have the right to an attorney.

Wait.

- Let's move. - Gosh.

All right. I'll explain.

I can't tell you here. Let's go inside.

Don't move!

- Not us. - She can't see us.

You can give that lame excuse in court.

- You should listen... - I said, don't move!

Gosh.

Stop her.

Oh, my.

Darn it.

Stop it.

What's wrong with this?

Why isn't it moving? Why...

What's going on?

Oh, she's strong.

That wasn't me.

What did you just do?

I said I would explain.

What just happened? What was that!

So,

that was...

a ghost.

So let me get this straight.

Ghosts have been doing your magic tricks all this time.

And the dashcam caught you...

talking to these ghosts and working with them?

That's the secret of my business...

and why I must find the helmet.

Then how can you explain the chocolate cornet?

Did the ghosts tell you that too?

Yes.

Last night, I met the man who died in the hit-and-run accident.

Right. I had an accident in front of the bakery...

because that ghost jumped out of nowhere.

You're telling me Min Ho is a ghost too?

Gosh. He's unbelievable. Does he think this is funny?

Everyone.

Goodness. What's going on?

Gosh. What is this? What are you doing?

You can't still believe me...

even after seeing everything yourself?

I did see your magic tricks.

I saw them too many times on TV during holiday seasons.

I've seen this trick so many times, so I'm not even surprised.

Put me down.

Do it now!

Help!

There's a murderer here!

- There's a murderer here! - Be quiet!

- Be quiet. - Help me! Let me go!

Nice.

That serves you right.

She can't be reasoned with.

Ms. Ko. Do you like roller coasters?

What did you say?

- You want us to do that? - Darn it.

Come on.

- What's going on? - Darn it.

Going down.

Going up.

- Turn left. - Hey!

Turn right!

Turn left!

Turn right!

- Hey. - And a bumpy road.

Goodness. Hold on. Hey! Stop it! Oh, my.

- What do we do? - No!

Right. I don't think she'll believe you.

- Wait. Hey. Stop it! - Rock the chair more!

Dad!

Dad!

- Detective Byun. - Did you find something?

Look. It looks like a piece of the headlight lens, right?

- Yes. - Can you find out the model?

- And put a rush on it. - I'll send it over.

Captain Seo, there are no security cameras in the alleys.

But we can check the cameras from the roads heading up to the hill.

Check the footage two hours before and after the time of death.

And bring me a report.

Yes, sir.

Are you ready to make a deal with me now?

A deal?

So that's what you're after.

What's the price of a man's life for you?

You can ask his insurance company.

Judging by the cornet he bought on his wedding anniversary,

he probably didn't have money to buy an insurance policy.

Anyway, here's what I'm offering.

The cornet was for what?

His wedding anniversary.

How did you know that?

Hey, you caught a lucky break.

Is there anything else you remember?

A girl. He said his wife was about to give birth to a girl.

He said he didn't know what to do as they were expecting a girl soon.

He cried so much.

I'm talking about that ghost, Min Ho.

How did you know that?

You really don't know who he is?

Did you two meet before the accident?

Me and that guy?

Do you think I have a lot of common ground with the working class?

What? Did he really see Min Ho after he became a ghost?

Hey, I think it's working.

What?

Do you finally believe me?

So here's what I'm offering.

If you help me find the helmet,

I will help you find the real culprit.

You're telling me you can find the real culprit?

The helmet wasn't at the scene of the accident...

or where the body was found.

Then the culprit must have taken it.

I can get the helmet, and you can arrest the culprit.

I'm saying this can be a win-win situation for both of us.

What do you say?

- Gosh. Let's get ready. - Please.

- Please. - Gosh.

- Please. - Please.

- Please say yes. - She's really stubborn.

- Please. - Please. I'm so tired.

Please.

What do you need me to do?

- Yes! She's convinced. - Yes.

I'm glad she's gullible.

Seriously. She's the perfect prey for con artists.

You're just like me!

You sounded pretty close to the victim.

That man...

No. Tell me where that ghost could be.

Let's ask him directly.

Fine.

I'll accept the deal.

But I have some conditions.

This deal is only valid for a day.

And I will accompany you throughout the day.

And if we fail to find the culprit by the end of the day,
