Imaginary Cat (상상고양이)

Episode 2 -

This time belongs to just the human.

The human sits there the whole night doing something.

Some times he spends the whole night there.

Other times, he will sleep there.

Sometimes, he becomes an idiot.

Other times, he becomes crazy.

But, lately...

Yes, Editor.

Oh, the new strips?

Not yet, exactly.

It is me, Human!

Let's play.

What? Let's play.

Here I come.

Bok Gil, please!

Are you playing hard to get?

Be glad that he evens plays with me like this.

Oh! Are you ready to play? Hey! Hey!

I guess not.

Hey! Bok Gil, you!

Why are you like this me?! I'm already frustrated to death!

Are you yelling at me right now?

Really!

Why are you mad at me?

Are you leaving because you're mad at me?

What should I play with?

# 3. Oh! My Muse

Are you sleeping?

Why are you sleeping? Is this your house?

I will deduct your rent before I give you your pay.

I'm sorry.

Did you work on your project all night? Fighting!

Project? You must have gone somewhere nice. Did you do anything?

It's not that kind of project.

I don't like anything about you.

Should we change teams? How about the Children's Team? Why don't you change with Miss Suzy?

Or, change to the Music Team? Change with the sexy Ms. Song. Okay?

Manager, I really like it here.

You will go find the Seoul University book right now. I will give you 10 minutes,

or else, you will go to the Children's Team. Understand?

Here. Ready, go! 1 second, 2 seconds,

3 seconds, 5, 6, 7...

Okay, you have 10 seconds. 10, 9, 8...

If you do this, will you make connections or make money?

I get more "likes."

Are you really not going to return to school?

Oh, jeez. Do this. Do that. I just want to do what I want.

Aunt called this morning.

She said she can't stand you being still unemployed.

She's going to grab you by your hair to take you back. She's coming here right now.

What? Why are you telling me this now?

Hey, your mom is coming.

That means that I'm going to die if I get into her hands. I'm going to sleep at my friend's house.

Hey! Oh Na Woo!

Oh Na Woo!

Baby, were you hungry?

What is wrong? Are you sick?

What should I do?

To the customer who found the book, thank you.

Today's closing time is at 11 PM

Please finish your purchases before the closing time.

Thank you.

Yes.

Oh, I haven't started on the new strips yet.

I'm not at the stage to promise a finish time.

Yes.

Oh, sorry.

Yes, yes, I'll call you back.

Yes.

Hyeon Jong Hyeon?

His name was Hyeon Jong Hyeon.

Hey!

Oh? Hey!

There's a person here!

Is there anyone there?

But why-- Why are you here?

I thought... I came earlier... then the lights went off...

What are you saying? Why are you here?

Gil Yang is hurt.

Then go to the hospital.

I don't know much about these things, so I wanted to ask you about this.

I waited a long time for you.

You didn't see, "Employees Only. No Trespassing," sign?

It's because you didn't come out quickly!

What are you doing?

I need to read some books, so I stayed behind on purpose.

What?

What are you going to do? The doors are all locked from the outside.

If you go out now, we both have to go to the police station.

- Then, we can't go out? - We can't go out.

- We have to stay here overnight? - We have to stay overnight.

How exciting!

Wow, this is amazing!

This is amazing!

Meow.

You must be in the artistic field. What is your speciality?

Let's do our own work.

I was going to give this to you. If you don't want it, forget it.

Oh!

Your name is Hyeon Jong Hyeon. How old are you?

Give it to me. I'll give it to you, if you answer me.

How old were you during the 2002 World Cup?

Sixth Grade.

You're the same age as me.

My name is Oh Na Woo.

Oh, okay.

Seeing that your books don't have related subjects, you're looking for ideas, right?

Informal now?

You are too.

If you're too obsessed over finding something, you may not be able to see the idea.

I'm not obsessed. I'm focusing.

If it's hard, it's obsession. If it's fun, isn't it focusing?

You can draw what you like. Why are you working so hard to find something?

Go and ride the cart.

What's the most precious to me now? Wouldn't the answer lie there?

If you're going to brag about what pleases you, can you get lost?

What a rude jerk.

Tell Jong Hyeon to come!

Jong Hyeon turned off his phone, so you should go now.

Is he avoiding me?

I worked so hard for him at the meeting.

Of course, he knows you are looking out for him.

Does he know? My ass what does he know!

If he knows, why doesn't he bring me the strips?

Are strips like rice paper, they come out when you turn on the machine?

Do you know how much Jong Hyeon ignores me?

Last time, I told him to eat dinner. He said no because Bok Gil is waiting for him.

I said, "Oh, you have a girlfriend?" And he said, "No, she's my cat."

He is saying I can't even beat a cat.

Bok Gil is really special to Jong Hyeon.

A couple years ago, after a friend died, he gave up on his drawing.

For a year he lived like a corpse. You don't know how bad it was.

After he met Bok Gil, he began to draw again.

If you think about it, Bok Gil saved him.

So, you...

like Bok Gil or me?

Well... you just said that so suddenly.

What the?

Hurry and come

Human, hurry and come.

Hey, hey, hey. Your drool is going to fall on the books.

Hey! Hey, let's go.

Hurry up!

Successful escape!

Your cat must be waiting for you. How old is she?

About 10 years?

You don't know her age?!

It's because I found her on the streets.

If I think about it, it's today.

Today? Then today is her birthday.

Is that so?

It must have rained heavily last night. The ground is so wet.

Rain?

Well, the weather forecast said that it was going to rain. Also, there would be thunder and lightning.

Hey! Hyeon Jong Hyeon! Are you so rude to me that you can't even say goodbye?!

Hey!

Bok Gil!

Bok Gil...

No matter what I do, there is something I can't forget.

Bol Gil, are you alright?

I have been abandoned before.

I couldn't acknowledge that truth.

At the time, I was lonely and tired.

There was nothing that I could do.

During that time, a human discovered me.

We were somehow similar.

You must have been very scared, right?

You were so bad to me.

I am sorry.

I'm sorry that I got angry, and I'm sorry that I left you alone at home for the night.

You were really bad to me.

Are you thinking of the past?

- Miss Bok Gil. - What?

Today is the day we first met.

Can we remember today not as a sad day, but as a happy one instead?

A happy day?

Then, today is her birthday.

That's right. It's your birthday!

Bok Gil, let's have a party! A happy birthday party?

Happy Birthday?

Happy Birthday, Miss Bok Gil.

No gifts?

Surprise! Bok Gil, look! Bok Gil!

What? What is it?

How is it? Do you like it?

- Oh! - Once more. Look at it carefully.

You're a genius.

Happy Birthday, Bok Gil.

Happy Birthday.

What us most precious to me right now?

Wouldn't the answer lie there?

That's right. You can start over like that.

Also Human, don't forget again.

That I'm your muse, okay?

What are you looking at?

Oh, my! Hey! What?

Why is she acting so kind?
