The Bride of the Water God (하백의 신부)

Ms. Yoon?

Ms. Yoon, is everything okay?

I told you to come home early.

You really don't listen to me.

It looks like you've lost weight.

Your eyes look sunken in too.

And what are these under your eyes?

Are they so-called dark under-eye circles?

I like you like this.

If you looked like freesias in spring,

I was going to go back right away.

I've warned you.

Once you fall for me,

nothing can get rid of the spell.

Let's go home.

Ms. Descendant.

I missed you.

What happened?

He was given another task.

He can come here when he is given a task.

A task?

What kind of task?

He has to find some kind of meaning. He's clueless.

He has to realize something.

Is there a task like that?

He was so stubborn.

When we got to the Land of Water, the red tide had come four times.

Lord Ha Baek was having trouble adjusting to the new environment.

The new environment? - Yes.

Things in the Land of Water are very different from here.

I see.

Usually, you become just a little bit more sensitive.

But Lord Ha Baek was awfully quiet as if he was angry.

He seemed to have no energy.

One day, he started to be so insistent.

Lord Ha Baek.

High Priest is visiting the Land of the Sky.

He left a message for you. - Which is?

High Priest says it wasn't a task to find an answer...

regarding the sacred stones in the human world.

Does he want to keep being so stubborn?

He made it sound very meaningful.

As far as he remembers, you answered, "I can't be bothered."

I did. But...

he said again to find an answer to the question.

"It wasn't a question."

He remembers that was your answer.

It was a question.

Also, Lord Ha Baek will be the next emperor.

Why can't High Priest give in?

Keep going.

Lord Ha Baek would like to find the answer.

Have you ever seen him volunteering to do something like that before?

That's what happened.

As he was being so insistent,

High Priest managed to get the permission to send him.

I wonder what he's trying to find though.

I see Yong Yong is here.

Well...

I didn't know you'd use a toy to satisfy your emotional needs.

It's not like that.

Did you pick on it?

Did you abuse it?

Or when you were lonely,

did you do something weird to it?

Hey. Don't be absurd.

It's so much faster this way.

Why did you always take a detour?

Nothing has changed.

I told you to clean the place often.

It's harder to try to clean it after a long time.

I also told you to change the bulb.

I told you to eat well too.

The phone contract hasn't been canceled yet.

You never do what I tell you to do.

How have you been doing, really?

What are you trying to find here?

What are you talking about?

Soo Ri said you had been given a new task.

You're to find the reason why the sacred stones are here.

I don't care a bit about that.

I came because I knew you were not doing well.

I...

have to go back.

That's still what I have to do.

I came to say goodbye properly.

Properly.

I don't want to leave any regrets.

Even if we have to part ways,

I want to be able to convince myself that I loved enough.

If you're not ready...

If you don't agree with me,

I'll go back.

To be able to say goodbye properly,

you want to love enough.

It's not supposed to make sense,

but it still sounds nice.

Now that I think of it,

I think I've been too petty to my life.

When I didn't love myself,

who would have wanted to love me?

Someone must have felt sorry for me.

A good thing like this happened to me.

It's because you've been nice.

I'm not nice. - You are.

Fine.

It's not easy to be nice in a world like this.

"All that a nice person ever gets is a decent guy." Is that the lesson?

A movie like that wouldn't sell these days.

Am I just a decent guy?

I'm a deity.

Then...

is the message, "A nice person gets to meet a deity?"

Do you think that's enough?

Then...

what else?

Something like this.

Help her forget about Ha Baek.

That's not something I can easily do.

Give it a try. You were planning on doing that anyway.

That's not...

something I can easily do.

Ms. Descendant.

Why are you coming out of that room?

Sorry?

I...

I was just looking for something.

What were you looking for?

Never mind.

What were you looking for? - Nothing.

Were you looking for me?

I'm going to work part-time starting today.

I called the owner of the duck boat tour company early in the morning,

and he wants to meet right away.

When I told him that you can't work there anymore,

he seemed very sad.

Don't you have to leave for work?

No. My clinic will be closed for the next little while.

Pardon? Why?

There were some issues.

It's a good thing though.

I live with an omnipotent deity.

Why do I have to work so hard to earn money?

Let me benefit from your amazing powers now.

He doesn't have any. - Sorry?

He doesn't have any powers. - What?

Have they not come back yet?

You said they'd come back when you return to the world of deities.

They did. - And?

He left them there. - What?

Leave what?

I can't take my powers with me? - That's correct.

He said that you'll have to leave exactly how you came back...

if you want to go back that much.

But why? Why does he have to do that?

He said that's only fair.

Fair?

Whom is that fairness for?

He said there will be no more negotiations,

but... - What?

You won't accomplish the mission anyway,

so he'll put a precautionary measure in place...

because you have to come back for the enthronement.

A precautionary measure?

He said that he'll allow you...

to use your abilities just once...

so that you can open the Gate of Deities and come back.

When the sixth tide comes,

he'll send a messenger to you.

What? - "Don't go if you don't like it."

He also said that.

That's what happened.

Are they a lunch bag or what? How can you leave them there?

By the way, why did you lose your powers in the first place?

I've asked him a few times,

but he just kept giving me creepy smirks.

All he said is it can happen. He was so vague about it.

Then...

Are you saying that you came back empty-handed?

With hunger.

Don't worry.

Those in the Land of Water aren't that heartless.

I was told that I can take...

one thing that's most needed in the human world except for my powers,

so I brought it.

Really? What is it?

Is it like a magic wand?

Can it make gold and silver?

It's much more...

amazing than that.

Soo Ri.

What is that?

No way.

Is that a driver's license? - Mine is a social security card.

Now, I'll do all the driving.

Now, I can work legitimately.

What is it? - Answer the call.

Stop bothering Mr. Kim so much.

Don't you feel bad for him?

He's the protagonist of his life.
