[Witch's Love, Episode 7]
They say apprehension and frustration end up in madness.
That thing's starting to lose it, I think.
If she's to go crazy, it'd be better to go crazy prettily.
Should we peg a flower on her or something, Sis?
It's eel today?
We'll need to feed him at least this,
so whatever that needs to come up can come up in him. (T/N: Eel is believed to boost sexual desire)
Seriously.
There's not much time left, you know.
We'll keep fanning the fire for you. (T/N: We will support you)
So no matter how, before the end of the day today.
Please!
As if a kiss is something so hard.
What's with all the fussing?
Don't worry! Yesterday already --
Get your senses together tight.
Destined man or whatever.
No matter how you wrap him with those words,
that guy is only just a kindling to resurrect your power.
Once you get your power back, no need to look back.
He will be an useless item.
Usage abolished. Dispose by incineration.
Why are you stopping in the middle of talking?
Yesterday already what?
Oh! Yesterday I already came up with my plan.
Plan?
What's that?
What the? You're totally fine now, Director Ma.
Thanks to your care-taking, I think I healed quickly.
Did you sleep well?
None of your business!
Whether I slept well or not, what's that to you?
What? If I didn't sleep well, were you going to give me some sleeping medicine or something?
And what if I slept well then?
What's with being so interested in other people's private life.
It's pissing me off the more I think about it.
I don't have an appetite. I'm not eating!
Do what?
Did I say something wrong?
Nah.
She's been under a lot of stress lately.
So she's swaying a bit.
Don't worry and Director Ma, you eat this.
No. I don't really like eel.
How is she going to resurrect her power at that?
Cho Hong really doesn't know men at all.
I think I need to coach her a bit.
Hey, the eel that was here. Did you eat it?
What the? I'm on a diet. How many times have I told you?
Geez.
What the? It's true!
Yea, sure.
I startled you a lot earlier, right?
But you still can't skip breakfast though.
Hurry and eat this.
How should I comprehend this situation?
What else am I supposed to do when Grannies are watching?
So it's a secret to the grandmas? Our relationship?
Our relationship?
I"m asking you. Is it a secret?
Probably.
What's the reason?
Useless item. Usage abolished. Dispose by incineration.
Think of all the things you did to us all this time?
You snatched our house. You snatched our store.
And you made us take care of you on top of that.
Who'd put up their hands to welcome our relationship?
If the grandmas found out about us too being like this --
What you just said seems to be a big distortion from truth.
Regardless, we can't!
Not ever. Never. Alright?
Who are the grandmas exactly?
I've wanted to ask you about this for a while.
Are they your true grandmas --
Director Ma!
What's the matter?
If you don't like eel, you should eat this at least to restore your body strength.
What the?
I didn't take you for that.
But Director Ma, you had an unsightly side to you.
- What? - What's the big deal if you like eel that you played so coy.
So you can eat it in hiding.
And picking out all the tail parts at that!
I have a sort of an unsightly side to me.
If you want people to offer you at least a piece of bun to eat,
you ought not act that way.
That's no good.
A piece of bun?
And here I thought you were starving so I boiled chicken fish soup for you.
For breakfast, the eel,
plus this chicken and fish soup would be too much.
Sis! I caught the eel thief!
Not me but Director Ma!
What?
No, it's nothing.
[ What women -- ]
[ What women like -- ]
[ Gifts women like ]
There.
There's more for me to approve?
But you were out for three days! There's so much piled up.
Leave it here and I'll verify it later.
It's the edited version so you just need to sign it.
I got it so you may leave.
but this is my work.
I said to go outside.
Why does he keep on telling me to go out?
Were you looking at something weird?
What do you mean by looking at something weird?
Seeing as to how your face got red, you must have been watching it.
What is there to be embarrassed out amongst us men.
I was looking at meeting notes, okay?
Yes. Sure. I do understand about the long and lonely nights.
But still, please try to contain yourself during work hours.
Oh, right. What you asked me to look into. You were right!
- About what? - About flooding near the soup rice place 25 years ago.
The area is low-land area so the flood damage was severe.
So I think that's why the soup rice place was temporarily closed too.
It must have been because of the rumor on the change in taste.
When I tell you to find information about something, give me something that is definite. What is this?
Saying it's an eerie picture. Saying it's not an ordinary soup rice place.
If the restaurant isn't a normal rice soup restaurant, then is involved in crimes?
I'm just putting together the puzzles though.
Focus on fiding the facts. The facts.
That kind of hearsay gets people in trouble!
You're the one who was suspicious first.
It's the third report. The soup rice place.
This time it's written focused on prominent persons in chronological order.
Focused on a fact. A fact.
[Rice Soup Restaurant Research]
Stop there, I told you not to put on make-up.
What make-up? I was looking in the mirror.
Leave her be, Sis. She's only doing that because she's apprehensive about her face getting haggardly.
Now you don't have much time right?
About a couple of days.
What? Did time past by this fast?
Then, that's just today and tomorrow left.
This can't be. We need to get this done somehow by today.
We've been too relaxed thinking the mouse is in the trap.
But Grandma, does it take some time for my power to resurrect after a kiss?
What are you talking about? The power should come right away.
What? You're afraid Hwa Ja is making a joke with you?
I was just wondering.
Though she got kicked out from our witch wolds, that Hwa Ja wench's tricks are true.
Though at times her greed courts more trouble and that's the issue.
But why this then?
What is it?
What? I didn't say anything.
What are you saying?
[ Text from Director Ma ]
I don't know why I keep getting useless texts.
I'm gonna go to the bathroom.
I'll hurry and make a new potion, Sis.
There's no failure twice. Make it strong no matter what.
Plan to get off work at 7 pm as usual.
There are a few instructions for you so I hope you report to me right away after work.
Why is up with this person?
As you can see, the overseas growth of our spicy chicken noodles is going faster than expected.
So it is deemed time for us to consider installing factory lines in anticipation.
As you can see,
First, settle on what to call me.
2. List the locations you want to go on a date.
Third. If there is specific food preferences or restrictions, make them known.
4. List out your hobbies and special activities you want to do together.
5. Write a questionnaire for questions about me.
Additional instructions will be sent to you separately.
This is the end? This is a message?
This is a lover's note between lovers who shared their first kiss overnight?
I'm not asking for lovey dovey but at least some shyness!
How is the destined man like this?
Can it be that he's not actually the destined man?
It was great.
Everyone, you worked hard.
You worked hard.
Your PT is getting better and better.
Are you getting tutored for it?
I feel like you attend speech academy though.
The part the director is interested in is this.
Aunt in Yang Pyeong
Over here.
The lowest possible.
Yes?
What?
Sanatorium in Yang Pyeong
You're here.
I spoke with the chief doctor. You must have been startled.
The seizures were very severe so I thought this was really bad.
I wouldn't have called you if I knew he'd be so calm again.
You did well and you've worked very hard.
I'm doing this getting paid though.
I wonder if he's getting ready to leave. His seizures are getting worse lately.
Though, he would be long gone from this world if it weren't for you.
These days even the biological kids don't.
Oh my. Look at my senses.
I'll get something to drink.
Uncle. What really happened that day?
Doesn't Driver Hwang have any other family members?
As far as I know, no.
But then again, even if he did have some, they'd fled by now since he's been like that for 25 years.
It's great that he has someone like you, but I don't know if it's fortunate or damaging or divine punishment.
You want to put that in too, Sis?
I told you we need to do it for sure this time.
But that'll make it too strong.
We can send him to underworld if it goes wrong a bit.
Do we have time to be picky about this now?
It goes wrong and our Cho Hong would end up in underworld.
But this is too strong still.
It can damage his brain nerves.
Seriously.
Here. He's here.
Hey. What are you waiting for? Why don't you hurry up?
I'm doing it.
It's time.
I am late.
I thought my neck will come off while I was looking out for you.
You need to eat dinner.
No, I ate it already.
Please go in and take a rest since you must be tired.
In that case, shall we have a cup of tea?
I think coffee will be great.
I will go down and brew blue mountain coffee right now.
No. I don't drink coffee before bed time.
Right. Who's drinking coffee before sleeping?
Then, how about puerh tea?
I have the puerh tea which Xi Tai Hou in China used to drink.
That sounds good, Sis.
I will hurry go down
No, thanks. As far as I know, puerh tea contains caffein as well.
Then, why don't you drink camomile tea?
Camomile tea will clam down your body and mind and you will get a good sleep. Will that do, right?
Besides, when an elder is offering you, why do you keep rejecting them?
Ah, then please let me have it.
Then, wait for a sec.
I will go down right away and bring it up.
I will go with you.
Please come to my room for a minute.
I will go prepare the tea and come to your room.
That's because there was missed spots for cleaning yesterday.
There can't be.
There are.
Which parts were not cleaned up?
I am sorry. I came late because there was something urgent came up.
- Please begin it.- What do you mean?
- Didn't you get my text?- Your text?
What was it? It sunded like an order from a superior to his subordinate.
An order?
Yeah, you said "I should..." and "I should"
Did you feel that way? If I caused your misunderstanding, I am sorry.
But since we ended up in a relationship like this by skipping the process to get to know each other,
I thought we need that.
Is this how you dated a woman?
Is it strange to date with learning data on each other? I think it's time-efficient.
I expected you to be a little dumb but I didn't know you could be this bad.
Dumb? Who? Me?
That's why you need to listen to the elders. Grannies were not wrong at all.
What do you mean?
They said human beings need data because they are lack of senses to feel the love.
That's why they calculate and measure each other's benefit. As for us, we can recognize the love at once.
Us?
My family, I mean.
I don't think you are the person who can say such things when you had cried after being dumped by a hooligan.
Still, Oppa Min Soo had a desperation towards me at least.
That shouldn't be said in front of me.
That's why... I meant...
I meant... well...
What was it?
It's a gesture, asking for forgiveness?
A sort of a reward that you look cute when you're jealous.
Okay. I won't do it again. You seem hard to please.
If you're going to do it, you should do it right.
♫ Yes, please. A little bit again ♫
♫ your love make me breath ♫
♫ Give me your love. Yes, please ♫
♫ At the moment when our two eyes are met ♫
♫ I am falling in your lap ♫
♫ Give me your love. Kiss, please. A little bit again ♫
♫ Your love makes me breath ♫
♫ Give me your love. Yes, please. At the moment when two eyes are met, ♫
♫ falling in your lap, Hoo ♫
I don't know what it was, but Cho Hong's plan seemed to work out.
Now we can sleep well.
How many times should I kiss him?
It has been long enough to restore my power, hasn't it?
Why on earth?
Why?
Let's meet at a restaurant in S & P building by 6.
For your reference, this is not for ordering you, but for asking you out for a dinner.
What a great advance he made (in attitute).
By the way, why is the sun so hot?
Why do you think a witch doesn't exist?
There are Superman, Iron Man. But why do you think that the existence of witches is non sense?
I am not saying we should change the plot into SF, what I meant was...
Why do the witches in soup rice shop protect the earth out of the blue?
There are plenty of heroes to protect the earth including Thor and Iron Man.
Our witches are selling soup rice. The most delicious soup rice in the world.
Witches are healing people who hurt in their heart with a warm soup rice
in this cold-minded world. Isn't it interesting?
What? Heatrashes?
When it's hot, nobody will eat rice soup?
Hello, hello?
I am eating it. I am!
The editor is for editing only. He doesn't know anything about art, yet he dared to criticize my work.
How petty. I should work hard to archive ranking within 100.
You startled me.
When did you come?
What's wrong with you?
How did this happe-
Auntie!
Auntie, what's wrong? Auntie!
Hey, Kang Cho Hong!
Kang Cho Hong! Come to your senses! Hey!
Kang Cho Hong.
K-Kang Cho Hong! I told you to come to your senses!
Hey! Hey! I still—
I still have things to tell you.
Hey, Kang Cho Hong! Kang Cho Hong! Hey!
[Kang Cho Hong]
She's ignoring me again.
What did I do wrong this time?
Should I have added an emoticon?
[Kang Cho Hong]
Her face suddenly went pale and she was sweating a lot of cold sweat.
She fainted and fell to the ground.
She wasn't breathing and did have any pulse. I even did CPR twice.
But her breathing didn't come back.
Her breathing is normal.
Her pulse is also normal.
- Excuse me? - Did she drink alcohol?
She fainted like that while she was working. What do you mean by alcohol?
Does she have any health problems?
She is... healthy.
There's nothing wrong with her. However, since she fainted and fell to the ground, I'll check for any signs of concussion.
- Please guide him.- Okay.
Guardian, please follow me.
Guardian.
[Emergency Ward]
[Building owner]
If you look at the chart, there is nothing wrong in her X-ray.
Her blood pressure is also normal.
If everything is normal, how did she faint then?
There has to be something wrong.
If you look at her...
Guk Sum?
Is this the hospital. Why am I here?
The doctor said I was fine.
Why should I get examined for nothing?
Look, I'm totally fine.
I'm sorry. I know you wasted your time and suffered today.
Did I faint because I wanted to?
Say something already.
For someone who's always joking, it's weird that you're quiet and mad.
How about I give you a big treat? For an entire week, you get free soup-rice.
How about that? Is it okay?
Ah, alright, alright. One month? Okay?
No? Two months is a little too much.
Are you like this because of the hospital fees?
And I thought it was something else.
Don't worry, don't worry.
Even if I take out and eat a flea's liver, I'll pay you back.
Seriously, you!
What am I to you?
Just because I follow you everyday like a dog, do you think I don't have any senses as a human being?
Do you know scared I was today? Do you know how much I regretted?
Guk Sum...
I'm Hwang Jae Wook! Hwang Jae Wook.
From Jung In Elementary School, Grade 2, Class 3,
Hwang Jae Wook.
Jung In Elementary School?
Ah, this moron. Your brain is still slow.
Excuse me!
I take back what I said.
I take back what I said about waiting until the other likes me back.
Waiting is bullsh*t. What should I wait for?
Kang Cho Hong. Listen well.
I like you.
So, try liking me as well.
I'm alright for a man. I won't make you regret it. I can guarantee that.
You must've been scared today. Go in and rest. I'll get going.
Excuse me...
It's Jae Wook. Hwang Jae Wook.
Alright, Jae Wook. Hwang Jae Wook.
What? Do you something to say?
About what you said earlier, I—
I'm not asking you to answer right away. It took me two years to realized that I liked you.
How shocked must've you been? I'm just letting you know that
and asking you to think about it. Don't cut me off coldly.
I don't remember you though.
I understand. I was always getting poked and beaten by other kids.
But I grew up into such a handsome man, it's normal you didn't recognize me.
You didn't change at all.
You're still... ugly and brave.
Your brain is still slow.
Why did you hit me?
Hey, won't you stop right there?
Why do I stop?
Come here.
Why? I will buy you a drink. A drink.
- I will kill you.- I will buy you a drink.
Come here.
I will buy you a drink. Why?
I'm cancelling about saying you were brave.
Right. What shall I do?
Why?
Kang Cho Hong, come here.
I am sorry. You waited for me for long, right? Today I was...
I will hear your excuse once we get in. Come to me first.
Well, when I was out for delivery today...
Didn't you hear me to come to me?
If you've got business, you come. Who are you to order her to come or go?
What?
You're a director at your company but not here.
Is being the building owner everything? I guess you think a tenant has to bow to you no matter what?
Kang Cho Hong, you say it yourself. Am I talking to you as your work superior or as the building owner right now?
Am I speaking to you right now as a work superior or building owner, I'm asking.
Why are you raising your voice at her?
Thank you so much for today. I'll treat you next time for sure.
I know you're mad but to blindly --
Why couldn't you say anything? Are we a secret to him too?
It's not that, but you're not hearing out about what happened before you got mad suddenly.
Our first date. I waited three hours and got stood up and came back.
I couldn't get to you by phone or text and we're supposed to keep it a secret from the grandmas so I couldn't ask them either.
But I came back and you were chatting and giggling with another man.
Exactly what kind of circumstances would there need to be for me to comprehend this situation?
Aside from car accident or you collapsed on the street and got taken to the ER.
This situation won't allow any other excuse.
I make this clear but a woman who's keeping lots of men around doesn't interest me.
I hate to spend my energy on childish emotional games.
Since what happened today was a first I will try hard to understand it somehow.
So I think it's best you clean up on untidy emotions and relationships.
If you wish to continue our relationship.
Untidy emotions? Relationship?
I'm finished talking. You can go out.
Go out, I said.
Jerk.
Cho Hong!
I heard you got taken to the ER. Are you alright now?
Why did you collapse on the street?
If it weren't for the soup fellow it would've been bad, Sis.
I'm alright now.
About earlier --
What? You need something?
Nope. Nothing.
What?
Jerk.
Comb.
Healed!
Be quiet now!
What the?
Since we reached our goal it does from eel to greens.
Overnight? Isn't that too obvious, Sis?
We ought to start preparing for sending him off.
But anyway having witch power is good indeed, Sis.
Look at how pretty our Cho Hong is.
Well of course, it's no match compared to my beauty.
But why did you collapse suddenly yesterday?
I thought about it too and I wonder if it's some sort of reorganization.
Reorganization?
Yep. When the power disappeared and came back suddenly, there's some side effect.
So from now you ought to take good care of your power.
If you lose your power another time, that's really the end.
No answer to it.
Grandma Hwa Ja said the destined man would be okay.
What destined man!
Sis.
Did you sleep well?
Come and sit, Director Ma.
Since you so dislike eel, we prepared greens for you today.
I'm not sure if the greens suit to your taste though.
I see.
Are you feeling alright? I heard you collapsed yesterday.
It could've gone really bad.
Soup fellow said she fell and was getting treatment.
So we thought it was maybe her knee that got scraped but she stopped breathing and fainted!
The one serving that's not a two serving but two-serving like.
We got rewarded for delivering that to him.
So did they test you? What was the reason?
It's all fine now, so don't you worry.
Look! She's so lively and pretty.
How is it that your mouth never rests?
If you're not eating something you're talking.
If you're not talking you keep stuffing yourself. When do you rest?
What the?
He's asking me a question so I'm answering him, Sis.
What do you mean I talk so much?
What about getting a thorough exam instead? I'll get it booked with my main physician.
Would it be alright for Cho Hong to be absent in the afternoon?
Huh? Yea.
It's alright.
What the heck? What's it to him?
What's with Director Ma suddenly?
Cho Hong's power came back, Sis.
Now Director Ma can't climb out, from the swamp of Cho Hong.
Where do you think you're coming into? Are you nuts?
How long?
What did I do?
I need you to look at me so I can apologize.
As you said to do,
I'm working hard to clean up untidy emotions and relationships.
Just once. Can you forgive me?
He acted so mighty and now asking me to forgive what?
What do I need to do? How will you forgive me?
Then dance.
Don't joke.
I'm very serious right now.
Fine. Sing then.
I've never sang in front of someone all my life.
Good for you.
Move.
Move, I said. I was just saying it.
♫ This beautiful land
♫ we are protecting it
What was that?
Army song I sang while in the army.
The only songs I know the lyrics to are this and national anthem.
I'll try again with the national anthem.
Then you've forgiven me now?
I did wrong too though.
I'm sorry to worry you.
This is me?
You look the same as now though. See.
The way you flick your fingers too.
Whenever the kids were mean to me you'd do this and the kids would always get hurt.
That's why you transferred away.
That happened?
You really don't remember?
I'm not sure.
Back then I thought you were either a fairy or angel.
Fairy? Guarding angel?
But when I met you again in this neighborhood I changed my thought.
So she's a witch!
Unless she's a witch, she couldn't have pulled my heart for so long.
Who am I? Hwang Jae Wook! And my standards are so high.
But in front of the witch power, there's nothing I can do. Though it's like my fate too.
This rascal! Who is he calling witch over and over?
Want to die?
Want me to show you some proper witch power?
See if you dare to say witch one more time!
I'll put you on a smuggler's boat and send you to Buenos Aires.
You eat it all and bring it back yourself!
Kang Cho Hong! Do you know this?
We are that kind of relationship?
What is he saying?
We already kissed! And twice at that!
What a joke.
You might not remember but I think your lips remember.
Yes. Is that right?
Mouth to mouth resusitation is still a kiss.
Does it take time before the power resurrects after a kiss?
What are you talking about? It should be right away.
♫ I can only hide it oh magic ♫
♫ Sine you've never seen it. ♫
♫ Something startling and unforgettable ♫
♫ Happens again and again everyday ♫
♫ Catch a dream like a dream hey yeah ♫
♫ If you want the world you dream of ♫
I'll keep it a secret from Sis so enjoy to your fill.
Chew it, suck it, and eat it up until it's gone.
What the? So much?
Give me too. Soup rice.
Even if he finds out the truth that you're a witch, will he love you?
♫ Show me your heart ♫
♫ It will all come true my dream ♫
Let's go with Buenos Aires.
I'll erase his memory, Sis.
Is there a need for all that?
Tonight. Rooftop at midnight. Call?
Call!
Until next episode only. Today for sure.
Of course. We must send him.
Just until next episode.
