NO TAIL TO TELL

- -

This isn't happening, Si-yeol.

I know. I saw it all, and you're not going to die.

So stop making me worry and please wake up, okay?

Patient's BP is dropping.

No, Si-yeol.

Please, save him.

I'll do anything, so please.

Please.

I don't know what to do.

Si-yeol.

No…

Please, no.

You can't come in.

EPISODE 12 LOVE WITHOUT REGRET

WOOSONG HOSPITAL

What is this?

It's a fox bead.

Pardon?

You said the male shaman is after this.

It could be taken from me, so I need you to keep it safe for a while.

But is it really okay for me to hold on to this?

It shouldn't be dangerous,

as long as you don't open it.

It might look like just an ordinary wooden box,

but an eight-tailed fox used her last bit of spiritual power to seal it.

So that pathetic male shaman

won't be able to find the bead's energy, let alone the eight-tailed fox herself.

No, that's not what I mean.

Is it okay to trust me with something this important?

Why not?

Well, because…

You know everything.

You know what kind of person I am,

what I'm really like deep down.

Don't flatter yourself.

You're not that special.

Do you think it's easy to be a bad guy?

I don't believe humans are particularly good,

but I don't think they're purely wicked or selfish either.

Even if you have an ugly side deep down,

I'm sure that's not all there is to you.

Honestly, I don't know.

At first,

I didn't think I was such a bad guy either.

But at some point,

- I realized I'd become so... - You became pathetic.

That's just how it is.

If you live life showing your worst side, you'll only sink lower and lower.

Don't worry about this.

I'll keep it safe.

But is there really a way for me and Si-yeol to get our lives back?

Don't worry. Just focus on getting better.

If you die before I can do anything,

then there really won't be any way to fix this.

What's that?

Oh, it's nothing.

Aren't you bored?

Why don't you watch some TV?

The gunshot victim was transported

to a nearby university hospital.

Police have identified Lee, a man in his thirties,

as the prime suspect and are in pursuit.

Lee, who was imprisoned nine years ago for various crimes,

is believed to be the fourth-generation heir to G Group.

He allegedly committed this act of revenge immediately after his release,

shocking the public.

- -

Kelly.

Sponge stick.

- Tie, please. - Yes, Doctor.

How did it go?

We did our best,

but he was already bleeding heavily before the surgery,

and the organ damage was too extensive.

I think you should prepare for the worst.

He may not make it through the night.

Wake up. This isn't funny at all.

Why did you…

Because of me…

Si-yeol.

I've never been through something like this before.

I don't know what to do.

What am I supposed to do?

I'd rather…

I'd rather take the punishment myself.

That's what you guys really want.

Si-yeol didn't do anything wrong.

What do I have to do…

What can I do…

There will come a time when you must choose.

Whether to become human

or be forever annihilated.

Si-yeol.

What happened?

- -

Hold on.

Where exactly are we going?

I followed you because you told me to,

- but why are we here... - It's just…

This place holds special meaning for me.

I should at least get to choose the spot

for my final moment.

Are you serious right now?

You said Si-yeol might not survive the night.

Okay, look.

What about that other nine-tailed fox? I mean, was it the eight-tailed fox?

Can't she do something to help?

She can't.

Saving a dying person is more than she can handle.

Then are you telling me to just stand by and watch Si-yeol die?

There's only one way.

But…

I need your help.

How?

This is the Sajin Ritual Blade.

It holds the sacred power to sever and defy fate.

Well, what am I supposed to do with it?

Stab me with it.

What?

I said, stab me.

Then I will vanish from this world entirely,

and everything that was twisted and distorted because of me

will go back to the way it was.

Then Si-yeol…

Won't have to die in vain like this.

But still…

We don't have time to hesitate.

If Si-yeol just dies like this,

then there's really nothing we can do.

And that means you'll die as well.

This is the end for me. My final moment.

I never once imagined an ending like this.

But Geum-ho,

I think I finally understand your final words.

The ones I spent a lifetime trying to grasp

and could never make sense of

until this moment.

My end isn't what I wanted it to be,

and my last moment may be tragic.

But even so…

I lived my own life, just like you did.

- -

With no regrets.

- -

- -

- -

So this is how it ends after all.

Oh.

Eun-ho.
