By the way, have you noticed Bo Gyeom acting strange these days?

I briefly saw him yesterday.

It felt strange. It was like he was a different person.

So it's this dog.

The dog with a story that you're entangled with.

- Stop right there! - Oh, no!

Are you all right?

Apply this on your wound from the fall you took the other day.

My lady did not treat me like a servant.

She treated me like her friend. Then she was scolded quite harshly.

So I think it will be better if you treat me...

coldly instead of showing good manners toward me.

Do you happen to know who Lee Won Hwa is?

He is a member of the royal family, albeit in a collateral line.

Lee Won Hwa's wife...

is here for postpartum care at the moment for she is expecting soon.

We will arrest her right away. Consider yourself informed.

Be careful, my lady.

Go.

If she gets caught, they will k*ll her.

Young Master. What just happened?

I will find out what is going on. Be safe.

Her fate has abandoned her.

She lost her husband overnight...

and ended up here, chased by a pack of wolves.

What about the child? Will it live?

It has already died.

I have lived for many years,

but I have never seen someone climb this cliff three times...

to die.

My newborn baby went to the underworld all alone.

Your child did not go to the underworld.

Its soul was hovering around you.

Then it ended up in the body of this dog on the verge of death.

It is not too late.

Tell me where Lady Han and that girl went.

I looked for you everywhere.

Warm,

beautiful,

and happy memories.

Memories are shared between people,

so it will be a great present for me too.

She was hiding deep in the mountains.

No wonder we could not find her.

The swordsmen are here.

Let us play one last game before going to the sea.

My lord.

If I stay hidden for too long,

or if I do not appear even after the game is over,

please forget about me.

You have a face as bright as the moon...

and speak bluntly,

but your gaze is sweet.

My mountain spirit.

[Episode 11]

[Nana Animal Hospital]

My lord.

If I stay hidden for too long,

or if I do not appear even after the game is over,

please forget about me.

Dong Chul.

Please do something.

Oh, no. What's happening to him?

Dong Chul.

Dong Chul. Look at me.

No!

Dong Chul!

Oh, no.

Dong Chul!

Dong Chul...

Despite your attempts,

if you fail to forget about me,

I will find you then.

I've found you.

You have a face as bright as the moon...

and speak bluntly,

but your gaze is sweet.

My mountain spirit.

You've left your home and now live in a box.

Mr. Mountain Spirit.

Keep crossing the line, thinking you can get away with your visions.

You'll dearly pay for it.

It's me, isn't it?

The name of a woman you once sweetly called for.

"Cho Young."

I don't have any recollection of doing that.

What if that memory is within me?

Memories are supposed to be shared between people.

Memories are shared between people,

so it will be a great present for me too.

The memory...

I'll get it back.

A previous life...

is a thing of the past.

You should live your own life.

Have a comfortable, peaceful life.

I don't want to.

Why not?

Because it looks like you're suffering.

Do not get sick.

Neither your body nor your heart.

Do not hurt any part of yourself.

I'm on your side.

I'll help you.

Don't ever come back here to see me.

If you do, I'll scold you then.

Slowly.

- Not so fast. - Slowly.

- There you go. Good job. - That's it. Good job.

All right. Give us a minute.

There you go.

- Gosh. Good work. - Goodness.

- Okay. - He'll be okay.

- He's out of the woods now. - Yes.

Dong Chul!

Mi Sun.

[Nana Animal Hospital]

Gosh. Why are you shivering so much?

Why?

Well,

my fur disappeared all of a sudden.

Is it really you, Uncle?

Yes. This is your uncle. Uncle Dong Chul.

How did he turn back all of a sudden?

This is a miracle.

Maybe, miracles do exist after all. You know?

Uncle Dong Chul.

Uncle Dong Chul, I really thought you were going to die.

You have no idea how scared we were for you.

- Mi Sun. - Yes.

I'm hungry.

Yes. You must be hungry.

Yes, our food is ready.

Here you go, Dong Chul.

- No. - Uncle Dong Chul.

You must use your hands.

Here you go. This is your fork.

Grab this.

- Get your fork into the chicken. - Take this one.

Yes. Go for it.

There you go.

Take your time.

This is so tasty.

Yes. Is it tasty?

Here you go. Have some Coke too.

- No! - Hey!

Hold on a second.

Put your fork down.

Hold the cup with your hand.

There you go.

- What is it? - What's wrong?

It tastes amazing.

- Does it? - I see. It tastes good.

- Gosh. - Great. It tastes good.

- Dong Chul. - Yes.

By the way,

how did you turn back to a human form?

I have no clue.

He has no clue.

Wait.

Drink slowly.

- Does it burn? - That must burn.

- Gosh. - Oh, my.

How on earth did it happen?

Was there an incident like this in the record our ancestors kept?

I'm not sure.

I don't think I came across anything like this.

Yu Na and I will comb through the record.

Well,

is it like getting the last present?

You know,

right before people die, they get...

Gosh. Don't say that. It's bad luck.

Go ahead.

Unit 306, Building A,

Dongdo Apartment, Garam Yuk-dong.

Yes. Okay.

Thank you. We'll try to deliver it fast.

Pan Dong.

- One order of fried chicken. - Okay.

It's time to take Dong Chul out for his walk.

Uncle Dong Chul.

Sit down, please.

Uncle Dong Chul.

These are your hands now.

You must use your hands.

Use them.

Yu Na. Hae Na.

Growing up must have been tough for you guys.

You need to start dating now.

Congratulations on getting a boyfriend.

Uncle Dong Chul.

When I was sick in the shape of a dog,

I had been meaning to ask you.

Where did you get this?

This?

It smells like tigers.

He hadn't been kissed. But his curse was lifted.

Do you think there could be a secret or something?

[All will be forgotten...]

A mountain spirit?

It looked like a letter about the curse.

By the way,

aren't mountain spirits supposed to help people?

I'm about to go into my house now.

I'll call you right back.

Mr. Lee.

Is Seo Won home?

Yes.

It's nice to go on dates with Seo Won, isn't it?

You guys look happy.

I see. He must have already told you.

Going on dates in your human form is convenient, isn't it?

In my human form?

Yes, in your human form.

Gosh. Not in the shape of a dog.

What do you mean?

Goodness.

I put that curse on you.

The curse that turns you into a dog.

I don't understand what you're saying.

I should go inside now.

Hey, Hae Na.

Well, will this make you believe me?

You...

Who are you?

I won't make it easy for you to figure out.

Take your time, and think about it.

You see,

I had been around you guys...

much longer than you might think.

Hae Na.

Hae Na. Are you all right?

What's gotten into you?

Go and wash up.

Gosh, it's so cold today.

Yu Na, give me your best shot.

- Stop it. - Take that.

- Seriously. Stop it. - Look at this.

- Come here. - Stop it.

Kids. Do you want some fish-shaped buns?

- Yes! - Yes!

- Thank you. - Sure.

Enjoy your buns.

- Okay. - See you around.

- Thank you. - Bye.

Look at this.

You see,

I had been around you guys...

much longer than you might think.

It does...

look like Bo Gyeom.

I couldn't believe it even after seeing it.

It just doesn't make sense.

How is this possible?

Why do you think he cursed your family?

I wonder that myself.

Why us?

[Knock Before Entering Teacher's Office]

Are you looking for someone?

No.

This explains why I kept smelling foxes at school.

A mountain spirit of tigers.

And a fox, staying by his side.

Lady Flint. Wait, no.

Min Ji A...

seems...

to remember you.

How do you know that?

Pardon?

Well,

her visions are right on the nose. You know?

If she were to regain all of her memories,

doesn't it mean Lady Flint has returned?

Gosh. If that happens,

you won't have to go through the hassle of getting revenge.

We might finally be able to go back to the mountain.

I'm no longer the mountain spirit...

she remembers.

Good grief.

What I'm saying is, you should stop here...

There is nothing we can change now.

It has already begun.

Bo Gyeom.

What is this?

My gosh. When was this?

She has grown so much, hasn't she?

It looked like the two of you had been seeing each other.

Is it going well?

See you around, kiddo.

See you around, kiddo.

Bo Gyeom.

You'll find out soon.

Welcome. This way, please.

Hello.

Please form a line over here.

- Hello. Yes, hello. - Hello.

Good to see you, Bok Sil. Come here.

Look at you. You've grown so much.

Come here. My gosh.

You came all the way here, so I brought you...

- Oh, my. - some potatoes and sweet potatoes.

- They're tasty. - My gosh. Thank you.

Ma'am, don't give Bok Sil sweet potatoes too often.

Bok Sil has gained even more weight compared to last year.

Okay, Doctor. I always trust you, you know.

Bok Sil will be fine if she just loses a bit of weight.

Let's go, Bok Sil.

Good job. Well done.

Doctor.

Who is that young lady?

We brought these for you.

My gosh. Thank you so much.

- Please wait just a few minutes. - Thank you.

- She's a friend of mine. - Not your girlfriend?

- Doctor, I brought you this. - Gosh.

No, please. It's okay.

It's really okay.

No, it's okay!

Every year, I wondered where you were going all alone.

You've been coming here to volunteer?

You're kind of cool.

I know.

You booked the ferry to go back, right?

Yes.

- What? - What?

Excuse me. Do you still have a ferry leaving the island?

Oh, no. The last ferry left a moment ago.

What?

What kind of idiot buys one-way ferry tickets?

It wasn't... It really wasn't intentional.

We missed the last ferry,

and this was the only room that was still available.

Hey, doesn't this look all too familiar?

Right, I've seen stuff like this in a number of TV dramas.

"Honey, I'll just hold your foot like this and sleep."

Then the female lead would be like, "My gosh. Don't do this."

"Come on. I'll just hold your hand and fall asleep."

- "Come here." - "No, please don't be like this."

Well...

Hey, how about a beer?

- I'll go to the store. - Okay. We've run out of beer.

- Be quick. - There's a store nearby, right?

Yes. See you in a bit!

- The phone is now up and running. - Okay. Goodness.

- Take these too. - My gosh. Thank you.

- Gosh, how kind. - Thank you. Have a good day.

Happy now?

Do you even have anyone to call?

You punk. Don't tell me...

What?

I bet you're going to call that woman.

No.

Get it together, you idiot.

She refused to help you break the cause...

and left you. You still haven't forgotten her?

- Hand it over. - Why?

- Hand it over at once. - No, go away!

What? You brat!

Hey, stop right there.

Stop!

Dong Chul!

Dong Chul.

Yes, Mom.

Gosh, Hae Na. What should we do? Your uncle...

Your uncle...

Have you found out anything?

Why are you doing this to me?

Why are you messing with my family?

Mak Soon.

Duk Gu followed Cho Young and died.

Why are you still alive?

Even a dog follows its master when the master dies.

I am carrying...

a child in my womb.

Was it for your child's sake that you let swordsmen in my mountain?

No, I just...

For the man you love,

you betrayed your master?

I can gladly leave this lowly body,

but please spare my child.

I will not use this sword that easily.

I cannot put an end to it so easily.

However, that child...

Your sin will follow that child.

No. Please do not do that, my lord.

That child's children and their children too.

When your descendants kiss someone,

they will transform into something that is not human.

Only when they can prove their so-called "love,"

they can return to their human form.

This curse will be passed down generation after generation,

and your descendants will never break free from it.

Hence, they will be reminded of their ancestor's sin...

over and over again.

Please, no.

No, my lord.

Please do not do this.

I'll lift the curse that was put on your family.

I have one condition, though.

Do you remember the day when your curse was activated?

Wait, Seo Won!

It's cold outside. Take this.

Mr. Lee.

Are you all right?

Hey, Seo Won.

You haven't forgotten about that cake, right?

Then you developed feelings for each other.

And now, you two are in love.

You'll have to make things go back to the way they were...

before that incident took place.

What do you mean?

How Seo Won feels about you.

Back to the time when he had no feelings for you...

whatsoever.

Just like that, his memories of you will disappear.

Then Seo Won...

won't like you anymore.

I am going to get rid of every ounce of affection he has for you.

Make your choice.

Will you break the family's curse?

Or will you choose your beautiful love over it?

I'll give you one day to decide.

What did you do to Ms. Han?

Where is she now?

How would I know?

Don't lie to my face!

Because of the two of you,

I lost this person.

It's only fair that you two pay for it too, don't you think?

The beautiful, heartwarming memories that you two share.

I will erase them all.

No.

You can't do anything.

Even if those memories are gone,

we'll fall in love again.

All right, then.

Back to the time when he had no feelings for you...

whatsoever.

Make your choice.

Will you break the family's curse?

Or will you choose your beautiful love over it?

I wanted to come here and see this with you.

The sea.

Me too.

Your uncle...

You should save him.

You can't let him die.

You know,

I've liked you since the moment I first saw you.

But you didn't really seem to like me,

so I gave up quickly.

But those feelings remained,

so I kept looking out for you and stealing glances at you.

So...

I might have come across as cold at the beginning.

Sorry about that.

Even if our memories are gone,

our feelings will remain,

so I'll go to you.

If you take a step back,

I'll take two steps toward you.

Even if I get a little lost,

I'll be okay because I've walked the path before.

Hello.

Young Master Soo Hyun is here.

Young Master Soo Hyun is here.

Young Master Soo Hyun has arrived.

He is here again.

He is here.

- My lady, be careful. - Wait.

- Let us go that way. - Yes, my lady.

Watch your step.

- Mak Soon. - Yes?

The weather is so nice today.

Go and have some fun.

- Hey, there. - Yes?

- What? - Young Master Soo Hyun?

Hello.

I will head inside now.

Mak Soon. Mak Soon!

It will get dark soon. Why do you want to go for a walk?

Leave it open.

Pardon? But why...

Lead the way.

I wonder what made Mak Soon...

so mad for her to stay in bed without eating dinner.

Why did you come all the way back here?

Why did you go inside earlier?

That lady from earlier...

It seems our families will be discussing marriage.

Mak Soon.

If I become a nobody,

will you be okay?

Mak Soon.

Let us live together somewhere far away.

Though it may be a little cold...

and a little hot,

and even if we end up eating less,

we can weave mats...

and make straw sandals...

as we have pleasant conversations...

with each other...

at a place...

where no one can say anything about me being nice to you.

Are you sleeping?

Do you happen to know who Lee Won Hwa is?

He is Prince Eunsung's great-grandson.

He is a member of the royal family, albeit in a collateral line.

Earlier today,

he was k*lled while being arrested for plotting treason.

Lee Won Hwa's wife...

is here for postpartum care at the moment for she is expecting soon.

We will arrest her right away. Consider yourself informed.

Giddy up!

Mak Soon!

- Lock the door. - Yes, sir.

Where is Master?

He is one of the envoys visiting Qing.

He left early in the day yest...

Lady Han, the wife of the traitor, Lee Won Hwa.

Come out at once. We must tie you up!

- My lady. - This way, my lady.

Watch your step, my lady.

Please get out and hide.

Mak Soon. Keep her safe.

Hurry.

- Oh, gosh. - Get them!

Check everywhere!

Gosh, my goodness.

- You cannot go in there. - Sir.

My lady.

They went that way!

- Get them! - Go!

Be careful, my lady.

Young Master. What just happened?

Go and keep Lady Han safe.

I will find out what is going on.

Can you not go?

There must be a way.

But...

We will meet again.

Be safe.

Even with your face covered,

did you think I would not be able to recognize your sword skills?

We will meet again.

Be safe.

Please keep Young Master Soo Hyun safe...

and help Lady Han lift her spirits.

Also,

please protect the baby in my stomach...

Did something happen?

Go away.

Is there still no news about Young Master Soo Hyun?

No.

He would be happy to hear about the baby.

Have you thought of a name for the baby yet?

If he is a boy,

I will take a syllable from Young Master Soo Hyun's name.

If she is a girl,

I will take a syllable from your name.

- My name? - Yes.

I will name her Cho A.

What a pretty name.

I am sure the baby will be beautiful...

no matter who they resemble.

That's it!

There.

How cold!

It is freezing! I cannot go inside.

I should just do this from out here.

Goodness.

Darn it.

I cannot believe you.

How did you do all of those fun things without me?

Were you not busy yesterday?

But still, how could you...

Gosh.

Darn it. I missed.

Goodness.

Right. About Lady Flint...

Did you not say the palace people were still looking for her...

because of her baby of royal blood?

If she gets caught,

they will probably t*rture her to make her hand over her child.

They will not believe her even if she says that the baby is dead.

I saw her in the village the other day.

The servant of Lady Flint.

- Are you talking about Mak Soon? - Yes, Mak Soon.

She was looking for something.

I heard she was looking for her lover.

He went missing after getting involved in Cho Young's matters.

She looked like she was pregnant. It must be that man's child, right?

Probably.

Is Mak Soon trustworthy?

She is a close friend of Cho Young, who grew up with her...

ever since they were little.

But still,

one should not trust someone who has a baby in their stomach.

You never know...

what she will do to save her baby.

Let us be real. If she and her lover...

rat on Lady Han, those two,

no, including their child, the three of them...

will be able to preserve their lives.

My lord. By any chance,

did Young Master Soo Hyun come today?

Young Master Soo Hyun?

Yes.

That is not important right now.

He got caught helping a criminal run away,

so he will be beheaded tomorrow.

My lord.

Please allow me to see Young Master Soo Hyun just once.

Goodness. If you get caught, I will be k*lled as well.

Please. I am begging you.

Here.

Please accept this...

and grant my request.

Before helping them run away,

you probably prepared a hideout for them.

It is not too late.

Tell me where Lady Han and her child went.

That is the way for you to live.

Do you really want...

to be dragged...

and be beheaded tomorrow?

Where did you bring that from?

A female servant was here.

Where is she right now?

Is she safe?

She returned for now,

but something feels ominous.

Young Sun.

I need to get out of here.

That female servant was pregnant.

My lord.

Thank you...

for paying for my mother's medicine for three years.

Now we are even.

My lord.

Please.

Please spare Young Master Soo Hyun's life.

How dare you come here, you servant?

Please.

I will do anything you ask. Please spare his life.

I...

I know where Lady Cho Young is.

If you lie,

you will not be safe either.

Where is she?

Tell me at once.

"My daughter, Cho A, look."

"My sin will find you..."

"and your child..."

"and their children."

"To me, you,"

"and the children of your children,"

"by the time we forget about everything,"

"the mountain spirit's curse will find us."

"The curse will creep up on us before we know it,"

"and we will lose..."

"what is precious to us."

[A Good Day To Be A Dog]

What happened?

I thought my memories were going to be erased.

Isn't it up to me whose memories I erase?

Ms. Han, is it true?

Are you really dating Mr. Lee?

"Seo Hae Couple?"

This is my handwriting.

You acted like memories weren't important.

Good luck.

I feel strange these days.

I feel confused about my feelings.

Stop.

Everything you're doing right now.

What are you doing?

Do you now realize...

what was stolen from you?
