[My Roommate is a Gumiho]
Wait.
One second.
Well, I...
It's not that I hate it, I'm a little flustered.
Sir.
I'm sorry, Miss Dam.
There's no need to apologize.
It's just that
you're moving a little too fast, so I'm about to feel motion sickness.
I have to be in a class, so please excuse me.
[What? You felt hungry again?]
[Episode 10]
I don't know why this is happening.
This has never happened
over centuries of my life.
Like I said before, you'll have to walk a fine line
between your affection and hunger when a gumiho loves a human.
And your 1,000 years are about to expire,
so your instincts would crave her energy even more.
But still, don't worry.
You have the Marble. What's there to worry about?
We give them the Marble,
let them fill it up with energy, then have it returned to us.
That's the rule the mountain spirit made.
I mean that you shouldn't worry because your instincts perked up
only due to your lack of energy.
But I still exposed Miss Dam to a bit of danger.
This is unacceptable.
Do you want me to tell you a solution?
Stay away from touching her.
[Abstinence]
There is no meaning to the body.
[You can enjoy platonic romance]
[that may drive you insane with your desires.]
What do you think? Doesn't it sound like a good idea?
Right. I shouldn't ask you to do something that I can't.
Then is there anything else you can do?
What a long day.
What is this?
Why do I suddenly feel so conscious?
That wasn't the first time.
Wait, then does this mean that time doesn't count?
Then was that my first kiss?
Dam, I'm home.
-My gosh. -What's with her?
Is she hungry?
My lord, have you heard that rumor?
What rumor?
That a wicked monster who leeches on people's energy
was seen in the city.
But the monster is unbelievably beautiful,
so there is no one who wasn't bewitched by it.
Is that so?
Once you run into this monster,
you lose your liver, gallbladder, and everything,
then get your energy drained to death.
Isn't that horrendous?
I'm sure that's just a rumor made up by gossipers.
That must be the case, right?
Then
shall we blow out the candles, sir?
What was that?
[No matter how low in energy I was,]
[something like this hasn't happened before.]
[I felt hungry for the first time in a thousand years]
[from my lover?]
[Miss Dam]
[Sir, I'm sorry I had to leave in a hurry yesterday.]
[Miss Dam]
[So let me buy some good coffee after classes.]
Platonic love...
It looked so good.
Yes, it's natural for couples to do that.
I need to get used to this.
I'll quickly grow into someone who enjoys physical contact.
Miss Dam.
-Sir. -Did I keep you waiting?
No, I didn't wait for too long.
This place is famous for their coffee. Let's go inside.
Wait for me, sir.
-He so stylish. -He's so handsome.
-Who is that? -Is he a model or what?
My gosh.
I got you Caffe Mocha.
Looks great.
You got cream on your lips.
-Where? -Right here.
You should wipe it with this.
No way. It looks like only the girl has a crush on him.
Yes, or he might be bored with their relationship.
[Bored? This is our fourth day together.]
[And it's not a crush. We like each other.]
[We had a really passionate first kiss yesterday...]
What should we do after coffee?
There was something I wanted to do.
Why are we at an arcade?
I used to come often before, so I thought it'd be fun to come with you.
-Why? You don't like it? -I do. I love it.
[I won't have to touch her if I keep it casual and just play games.]
Hey, let's go play that.
Let's do that.
[I want to be lovey-dovey like them too.]
[I didn't want to spend all my time shooting guns.]
Sir, let's go play the motorcycle game.
-Okay. -Sure.
Sir, did you just grab me by the neck?
No, it's...
I...
-You're home. -Hi.
What's with your shirt? Did you get into a fight?
Why would I fight anyone?
Why are you watching this?
Why do you care?
I'm 18, so I can watch a 15 rated drama.
You're so old-fashioned as if you still live in Joseon.
No, even someone from Joseon
would call you old-fashioned.
What? I'm not old-fashioned.
Wait.
Wait, was it Seon-woo?
Did he get frustrated with how conservative you are?
Wait, is that why he was trying to keep his distance?
Wait.
You're moving a little too fast,
so I'm about to feel motion sickness.
Yes, that was it. He was trying to stop himself
from taking things too fast.
All I wanted was to slow down a little,
not turning off the engine and sitting there.
["A Brawl Breaks Out at a Club Due to Collar Grab"]
[Yesterday night, a man in his 20s was arrested and detained]
[at a club in Gangnam after attacking another man.]
[This is unfair for me too.]
[He grabbed me by the neck first.]
["Holding Someone by the Neck Is an Act of Assault, Claims the Attacker"]
[If you hold someone by the neck, that means you want to fight.]
[I mean, I couldn't just stand around and let him do this.]
[And of course, I became agitated so things turned out in disgrace,]
["Holding Someone by the Neck Is an Act of Assault, Claims the Attacker"]
[but I believe it was self-defense.]
[And I don't think it'll take him four weeks to recover.]
[It was just a fist fight.]
-What do you want? [-Ever since]
After I became a human, I began to have a huge appetite.
I still have room for dessert after a filling meal.
On top of that, I could have another drink after that.
So what?
I just ordered a fried chicken and had it with beer.
It was heavenly.
No, never mind.
Once I became full,
I didn't care for more food.
-Why are you telling me... [-What do you think?]
You should eat as much as you can to quench your hunger.
What?
I've never filled myself up with human food...
Exactly.
You've never tried it before, so you should.
Who knows?
Once you're full,
your hunger and craving for energy may disappear.
What kind of logic is this?
I've seen some of these before thanks to Miss Dam,
and there are some dishes I've never had before.
Is this a pot stand?
That's too sweet.
["Hunger of Life"]
["I Starve," "Famished Days,"]
["Stories to Appease Your Hunger"]
What on earth...
[Am I doing?]
How does this make any sense?
[We began by living together,]
[then said goodbye with a kiss.]
[But we can't touch each other now that we're dating?]
[Sir, good morning.]
[There seems to be a misunderstanding between us, so I send you a message.]
[Everything I said and did two days ago]
[didn't mean that I don't want you to touch me.]
[Actually, it was wonderful.]
[I was just a little flustered because it was my first time.]
[I felt like a baby who just learned to walk]
[doing a windmill all of a sudden.]
[But now I'm all ready for this.]
[I'm willing to races at your speed on the highway or wherever else.]
[Miss Dam]
[Professor of History, Shin Woo-yeo]
You're buying today. I bought you this last time.
If he read my message why won't he respond?
You
dropped this.
Thank you.
How did you know this was mine?
I've been watching you.
What's he saying? Why was he watching me?
So you sold the laptop?
Yes, it was sold in five minutes as soon as I posted it.
-I wouldn't even take it for free. -It's not for you anyway.
Hey, do you remember everyone who went on the history trip?
I keep running into him, but I can't remember.
He's a guy, a little taller than me,
-and has monolid eyes. -Monolids?
Oh, that guy. I know him.
His name is...
Do Jae-jin.
He's taller than you, has monolid eyes.
No, not him.
[History 101 is canceled due to Mr. Shin's personal circumstances.]
What?
History 101 lecture is canceled.
What? Why?
Professor Shin's personal reasons.
I hope nothing bad happened to Professor Shin.
His lectures are as fascinating as his facial features,
so he wouldn't cancel a lecture over something petty.
She's so worried as if she's his girlfriend.
Right?
Yes, you're right.
[Professor Shin Woo-yeo]
[Professor of History, Shin Woo-yeo]
Sir.
I'm here.
Sir! Sir, are you not feeling well?
Sir! Oh no.
Sir.
Are you all right?
Sir.
[Professor of History, Shin Woo-yeo]
-Are you all right? -Miss Dam.
You might want to leave for a second.
Sorry?
Yes, you should probably do that.
Hye-sun.
-Let's go. -Wait, I... Hey.
[I'm sorry. I'll explain everything later.]
[Sir]
You must be startled. Drink this.
Thanks.
I heard that
you're a gumiho too.
I heard it from my sir.
"Sir"?
Is that what you call Woo-yeo? "Sir"?
-Yes. -My gosh.
Woo-yeo finally met his match.
You're a funny girl.
Anyway, what's going on?
Something seemed serious.
You know what's happening, right?
I'm not sure.
Even if I explained it to you, would a human like you understand?
But what I do know is that you don't even know half of who he is
or what we're like.
[I'm going to be a human as soon as I can.]
Why are you in such a hurry?
Because I want to live a different life.
A cold-hearted guy like you who's made of ice won't understand.
Please erase my memories. Please, I ask of you.
[One day, there will come a moment]
[when you can't stand that you're actually a fox.]
Why don't you try getting energy from other women?
Then she won't have to see you as a threat,
and if you get lucky, you may become a human too.
If the result is great, who cares about the process?
Well, there's no way an upright man like you would do that.
Then try doing something as I suggested.
-Try stuffing yourself to quench... -I tried.
What?
I tried everything I can.
Really?
Yet you couldn't control yourself?
I don't get it.
Could it be
because of that?
Because of what?
If it's because of that, then I wouldn't be too worried.
You know.
Sexual desire.
I think there's definitely a chance.
I recently saw a movie where the male lead was in your spot.
He couldn't restrain himself,
so he'd get up in the middle of a meal and wipe out the table...
That's enough.
It's not that I can't restrain myself.
I can't control myself.
And what's more important is
the Marble is somehow gathering energy.
What? How does that make any sense?
-Sir. -Miss Dam.
You might want to leave for a second.
[Sir]
Sir!
Why did you call...
Forget that. Are you all right?
-Miss Dam. -Yes?
Could we
keep our distance for a while?
We just started to go out. Why would we do that?
Stay right there. I'm coming.
Just for a short while,
until I find a way.
A way?
Miss Dam.
You thought I'd become a human right away
once I take the Marble back, right?
So didn't you wonder
why everything seemed to be the same?
Yes, I was dying to know.
But I thought you had a reason for not telling me.
I don't have enough energy yet.
That's why
I continue to crave for more
against my will.
But isn't it all right since you have the Marble?
[What if it isn't?]
What if something goes wrong?
If I take more energy from you, you might fall in danger, Miss Dam.
So let's keep our distance for a while
until I find a way.
I know how smart you are,
so I'm sure you understood everything.
We have lots to discuss, so let's get started.
I'm thinking of donating proceeds
from our school festival to a cultural asset protection group.
I'm not sure. It all sounds great,
but are we going to make that much from opening a pub like everyone else?
I was wondering if you had any other ideas other than opening a pub.
How about doing tarot card readings or having your fortune read?
-Economics is doing that. -Really?
Just do a free hug campaign for 500 won.
If they have to pay, it's not free. It's a paid-hugs campaign.
Don't be so uptight.
We can leave a box,
and ask people to donate as much as they want.
So who would pay money for a hug?
It's not like we have somebody big.
Hey, people would pay. They'd pay to do this.
We'll empty out everyone's pockets.
I'd give up my tuition for him.
-What's going on? -You've just been sold.
You're our free hug guy at the festival.
I'm not doing it.
He's right. He's not in the student body, so we can't force him.
-Why not? -You totally killed this.
-Hey. -Then what about Dam?
She can do this for coming late.
You do the free hugs campaign.
-The free hugs campaign? -Yes.
You were late, and we already chose what we're going to do.
-You don't have a job yet. -We're too busy.
Then I'll do it.
I'll do it, so leave her out of this.
-Hey, what's going on? -A knight in shining armor?
He's making my heart flutter too.
Hey. What's up?
Thank you for what you did earlier.
Then let me ask you something.
You said before that you had a crush on someone. Who is it?
Don't ask me.
I already did.
Come on and tell me. I got you out of the free hugs campaign.
Give and take, you know.
That's not fair.
That confession I made
might have been lame, but I was serious.
I had feelings for you,
and I still do.
Is it Jae-jin?
You make me laugh.
Are you sick, by the way?
What?
You don't look well.
You seem to have lost a bit of weight too.
[Lose weight? Really?]
I really did. I lost 2kg.
Is this really because I got my energy stolen?
No way. I always lose a couple of kilos when I don't eat much.
Wait.
My weight has never gone below 50kg.
Wait.
[But what I do know is that you don't even know half of who he is]
or what we're like.
If I take more energy from you, you might fall in danger.
[You agreed to stay away from each other?]
That's the only way to solve this.
Why did you even suggest it
if you can't take responsibility for your own word?
You should have rather begged her desperately.
Beg? How?
"I may lose my mind from time to time and confuse you with food,"
"but please still hang out with me."
"I might steal your energy too." Like this?
[Miss Dam]
Is that Lee Dam?
-Yes, Miss Dam. [-Sir.]
You're right.
Let's...
stay away from each other.
Are you still there?
Yes, I am.
I gave it a lot of thought,
and if it's something you cannot control,
it might be better for us to stay away from each other until we find a solution.
[I know it's a selfish thought,]
[but I wished you wouldn't be pushed away even if I pushed you.]
Tell me, Sir. Was I nothing but just a Marble carrier?
Was I?
[I wished you'd be bold]
[just like you always have.]
I like you.
And I want you to like me too.
[I wished you'd be reckless]
[and cross the line I drew.]
I also didn't know
I would say this.
I understand.
Let's do that.
You know there's no solution to this.
Unless you turn into a human.
Why don't you ask her for help?
A human can bear it for a year,
and you have half a year left.
No.
I don't want to.
[Seogwa University Festival]
[We Draw the Best Caricature of You]
We have a lot of delicious food. Come on, guys.
[Department of Nursing]
-Does it look all right? -Of course.
You won!
[I'm the champion of Seogwa]
[Department of History's Traditional Pub]
-What do you think of this one? -Good.
-This one is better, right? -Yes.
-Is this one better? -Yes.
Hey, I have a lecture now. See you later.
-Okay. -See you.
Dam, you should take some rest.
Labor is the best way to clear your head.
Clear your head? Do you have concerns lately?
Actually, you don't look well these days.
I'm just saying.
-This should be in the lounge, right? -I'll move it.
I have a class now, so I can drop it there on my way.
Professor, I was really worried because you suddenly canceled
the lecture the other day.
-Is everything all right? -Yes.
Wait. Why don't you
come by our pub? We can give you extra food.
I'm the top student, so you may think I spend my time studying only,
but I also dedicate myself to college events.
Sir, do you like stir-fried cartilage? Or how about...
[I know you also have a lot on your mind.]
[But do we have to ignore each other?]
[I know you also have a lot on your mind. But do we have to ignore each other?]
[When I said we should stay away, I didn't mean this far away.]
[I would lie to him and say I'm all right,]
[but I have my family whom I love,]
[my friends,]
[and my dreams to pursue.]
[I have never liked someone this much,]
[but if you ask me if I could risk my life for it,]
[I don't think I can.]
[Department of History's Traditional Pub]
-Professor Shin, you came. -Yes.
Have you eaten yet?
Right. Have a seat.
[Department of History's Traditional Pub]
Professor, you can sit...
over there.
Excuse me, ma'am.
Call me Hwang Jin-yi.
[Department of History's Traditional Pub]
Guys, I got you some warm coffee.
Just coffee? No bread?
-Seon-woo is amazing. -Why?
I think he's making more money than our pub.
It's like a one-man business.
I kind of feel bad that he hasn't been able to sit down for hours,
but he's making so much money.
Hey, Dam.
I heard he's doing that for you. Why is he doing that?
I'm not sure.
-Hi. -Hi.
Thank you.
Hey, do you have a girlfriend?
I don't.
-Could you give me your number then? -I don't have a phone.
Yes, you do.
You're lying.
-We'll come back. -Thank you.
-Let me take some break. -Okay.
[Free Hugs Not For Free]
I'm sorry, but we're taking a short break.
-Oh, no. -Why?
Have this, Seon-woo.
[I know this doesn't mean anything,]
[but I want to believe it means something.]
[I guess my hard work paid off.]
If you don't want it, give it back...
I do. I'm just saving it.
You don't need to though.
I can tell your fortune...
[Pretty Fortune Teller]
Hey, Seon-woo.
Your girlfriend?
I'm not his girlfriend.
Oh, I see. Do you want to see your future?
You should join. I'll give you a discount.
-I'm busy. -Let's try. Just for fun.
-Good. Come on. -I need to go...
I'll give you a discount. Come on. Let's go.
That way.
[Fortune Telling, Tarot Cards]
Tell me.
Why are you watching her in disguise?
I don't know.
I'm the one who wants to ask what you're doing now.
Tell me.
Has your or Hye-sun's love ever ended well?
Everyone you loved either died or ended up a living corpse.
To humans, you are an unfortunate car accident
and a bolt out of the blue.
[Fortune Telling, Tarot Cards]
Though she's blinded by love and believes she loves you,
humans are meant to be with humans. That's the rule.
Which both of you will figure out soon.
But if you still believe she's your destiny
who found you after a thousand years...
[Fortune Telling Cafe]
[Fortune Telling, Tarot Cards]
Why don't you see for yourself
what destiny is?
You know foxes are related to dogs.
Even a friendly dog
can bite you when upset.
Gosh, you guys are a match made in heaven.
[Seogwa University Festival]
You are so meant to be.
It's like the whole universe wants you to be together.
[Pretty Fortune Teller]
I said I wanted to know about my future career.
I'm not lying. It's just the way it is.
-Our relationship is nothing like... -There's a man now, right?
And there's quite some age gap.
You're the earth, and he's a tree.
And he's not just a regular tree.
He's too old and big a tree.
If you stay with him, you'll be faced with a drought.
Dam.
Okay. Bye, Seon-woo.
[Fortune Telling, Tarot Cards]
How did you know I was here?
I was looking for you. I have something to say.
What is it?
Let's talk.
What are you doing, you freak?
Are you coming to the after party?
Maybe.
So what is it? Let's go.
What?
Oh, boy.
Where's Soo-kyung?
Probably helping others at the pub.
What kind of vague answer is that?
You don't look well. Is everything all right?
I'm just thinking about what I heard from the fortune teller.
Why?
I feel like she might be right,
but at the same time, I hate that I feel that way.
Hey. I was waiting for the right time to tell you this,
but I have a boyfriend now.
Is that so?
What's with that calm reaction? It's not like you.
I wanted to introduce him to you.
He's a really nice person.
And being with him makes me happy.
Is that all?
He's the most handsome man in the world.
What's with the smirk?
It's just nice seeing you like that.
What? What's wrong with you?
You did something bad, didn't you?
If you tell me in three seconds, I'll extenuate it.
-Three, two... -So how much do you like him?
What?
Well...
I'm not sure, but I most definitely like him more than he likes me.
I doubt it.
You don't know.
Finally, I see your face.
What? Since when?
Anyway,
I think you're wrong.
Because I like you way more than you like me.
Well...
Which is why I'm regretting that I said
we should stay away from each other.
I avoided you then
because seeing you made me weak when nothing was sorted out.
I promise I will sort out the Marble situation somehow.
-Pardon? -I can't stand
putting you in danger.
-This way, your energy... -You said you'd sort it out.
You said I could hold out for a year.
I'll try to hold out.
I can hold your hand every three days.
If I lose weight, I'll overeat.
I'll do anything I can do,
so let's not stay away from each other. Let's stay together.
What's with the smirk? It's creeping me out.
What?
You're coming to the after party, right?
Answer my question first. What's the name of your first love?
-Shin Seol-a. -When's Jae-kang's birthday?
How would I know?
It's you. Let's go.
What are you saying? Are you coming to the after party?
-What are they having? -Meat.
-Meat? -Meat.
I wonder if Woo-yeo sorted it out all right.
Excuse me. Hi.
Are you a student here?
I've been watching you over there
and you're totally my type.
[I'm not just your type.]
[I'm everyone's type.]
And?
Could you give me your phone number?
No.
Come on. Do you not like me?
She's saying she doesn't like you.
If you don't want to give us your phone number,
I don't mind hanging out together for just today.
Guys.
Be objective, okay?
Can't you see I'm way out of your league?
What a disrespectful wench.
Hey.
I'm not done yet.
Let go.
-"Let go." -You let go.
-Let go. -You let go.
Hey.
She said, let go.
What in the...
Hey, you think this is a movie or something?
Who do you think you are...
Let's go, Hye-sun.
Hye-sun, if something like this happens again, call me.
I did judo in high school, so I'll be pretty useful.
Okay.
Let's go. I was looking for you so we can go to the after party together.
To Seogwa!
-Cheers! -Cheers!
Seon-woo made a huge contribution this time.
-How much did you earn? -Tell me about it.
I heard you broke the record.
Seon-woo, if you don't get a job, please come to the festival every year.
-We will double your pay. -Or triple.
Thanks for the curse.
Did Dam come, by the way?
That's a random question. What's the deal between you two?
Hey, you're not a good match.
So did she come or not?
Hey, you're here.
-Come on in. -Hi.
-One soju and two beers, please. -Okay.
I thought you preferred pork belly.
I like all meat equally.
Don't drink too much.
Are you two really going out?
I have a boyfriend.
-What? -What?
You have a boyfriend? Since when? Who is he?
Where did you meet him? Is he a student here?
Why haven't you told us?
I'm saying it now.
I'm seeing someone.
I'll introduce him to you one day.
Right now, the situation isn't so good.
What do you mean by, the situation isn't good?
How could you have a boyfriend? You weren't dating anyone.
Who is it? Chan-wook? Seong-woo? Gi-yong?
Come on and tell me. You're really upsetting me.
-Tell me... -Gosh!
Just eat the meat.
Give me some water.
Seon-woo is drinking so much today.
I haven't seen him so down.
But he looks even more handsome.
-Hey. -Where are you going?
-Don't go. -Where are you going?
What time is it now?
So tell me. How did you meet him?
I want the whole story. Do you have a photo of him?
Come on. I said I should go home.
No, I want to drink more.
If you're busy, just go.
I will take him home today.
Are you sure? He's horrible with alcohol.
I know he is.
I owe him a bit,
so I'll take care of him today.
Then please take care of him. Thanks, Hye-sun.
What a disloyal friend she is.
Seriously, Hye-sun. Can you believe it?
How could she have secrets from us?
We are not just anybody, are we?
This is why they say the axe you trust stabs you in the back.
"The axe you trust stabs you in the back"?
Well, it doesn't mean
you actually get stabbed by an axe.
I know. It means you get betrayed by someone you trusted.
It was written in the second chapter of the book you got me.
You read the book?
I'm so proud of you, Hye-sun.
Well done.
What are you doing?
You're still wet behind the ears.
I'll keep drinking then.
Dam.
Are you going home? I'll take you home.
You're not taking me anywhere. You're almost crawling.
You drove here, right? Do you want me to call you a chauffeur?
No.
I'll walk home.
You can't walk to Seocho-dong.
You remember where I live.
You're drunk. You should go inside,
sober up, and...
It's a free hug. It's free for you.
[We appreciate Go Kyung-pyo and Lee Kyu-sung for the guest appearances.]
[My Roommate is a Gumiho]
[Can I come to your place? It's been a while.]
[Don't worry about touching.]
[I'm just worried I might take your energy...]
[When I woke up, I was half-naked in a hotel.]
Are you crazy?
[To get close to you, Miss Dam,]
