EPISODE 7
HOSTAL BONITA
What time is it now?
Is that you, Se-ju? Are you back?
Hey.
Is Se-ju not back?
No, he's not.
I thought he was back.
What are you doing here? You should be in bed.
I came in here because
I had to escape from your loud snoring.
Don't exaggerate.
I don't even snore that much.
Come, let's go back to bed.
Grandma, you snore a lot. It's so loud.
You snore like crazy.
Goodness, you're exaggerating again.
Do you want to hear it? I recorded it.
Recorded what?
VOICE RECORDING
This is me?
This was yesterday.
VOICE RECORDING
This is from last week.
Isn't it crazy?
It's shockingly loud, isn't it?
Do you have nothing better to do?
Your old grandma snored a little from exhaustion.
Why did you have to record it?
By the way, why isn't that punk back yet?
How many days has it been?
Are you sleeping?
No.
Se-ju...
hasn't even called, right?
Did he text you to wish you a happy birthday?
No, he didn't.
What the hell is he up to? Why can't he even send one text message?
He can't forget his sister's birthday.
That ungrateful brat. You practically raised him.
I sent him an e-mail yesterday, and he's read it.
He's read it?
Yes, I'm sure he's doing fine. Don't worry too much.
And he didn't even reply?
Even when you told him we have to move?
Goodness, that spoiled little brat.
I'll e-mail him again tomorrow.
Why does that man, Yoo Jin-woo, come and go whenever he wants?
He shows up and leaves whenever he wants to.
How could he take off like that? What a cold-hearted man!
Are all rich people like that?
I hope his leg heals soon.

Every city

The first sword is obtained in a restroom.
The first duel will start at each city's landmark, the square.
For Seoul, it's Gwanghwamun Plaza.
He's wearing a bamboo hat.
An assassin from Joseon must wear one.
I don't like it.
It's not as good as the warriors in Granada.
Shouldn't we show the assassin's eyes to make him look menacing?
Well, we can lose the bamboo hat. Should we go without it?
TESTER1: LEVEL 1, ATTACK 80, DEFENSE 100 RUSTY IRON SWORD
Yes, that's much better.
How about we lose an eye, too?
So he's one-eyed? We can do that. Make the change.
What else? How about some scars here?
What is that?
-Okay, much better. -Do you want to see the version for Japan?
Put it on.
What is happening?
That's the version for Tokyo.
For Beijing...

This location and...
Mr. Park, you have to leave now.
-Where do I have to go? -The church.
The church?
Why do I have to go there?
Mr. Cha's memorial service.
Oh, right.
What time does it start?
At 2 p.m. It'll start shortly.
Damn it.
-Tell me the rest later. -Okay.
Has it been a year already since Mr. Cha passed away?
-Time flies. -So...
we haven't run into any problems.
We can just keep going, right?
Will it be ready for the showcase?
-There's nothing to worry about, right? -So far, so good.
Okay.
Where's my note for my speech?
-Here you go, sir. -Okay.
"Mr. Cha Hyeong-seok,
who was both family and friend...
First of all, I'd like to thank you all for being here.Thank you..."
Lord...
please have mercy on us.
Lord, please have mercy on us.
Lord Jesus Christ, have mercy on us.
Lord, please have mercy on us.
Let us pray.
Lord.
You are our hope and light.
You made it.
-Please have mercy on us. -I'm sorry I'm late.
Let us continually offer you
a sacrifice of praise
and prayers.
In the name
of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
Michael Cha was our family, our friend and our colleague.
It's already been a year since Mr. Cha Hyeong-seok left us.
Firstly, I'd like to thank you all for remembering him
and for being here.
I remember the day I first met him.
It was 17 years ago in a classroom at our college.
During a break between my business classes,
an engineering junior barged into the classroom.
He told us all to invest in the technology he was developing
and gave a presentation.
He said he'd return a billion won ten years later
if we invested 100,000 won.
Persuaded by that engineering student's audacious courage,
I gave him 100,000 won, which was my emergency fund.
Out of everyone in that classroom, I was probably the only one
who invested in Hyeong-seok.
And Hyeong-seok kept that promise.
It took him exactly ten years
to turn that 100,000 won into a billion won.
He had an insight into the future...
My god, I thought he was in the States.
What's Jin-woo doing here?
Who invited him?
I don't know.
Hey!
Jin-woo...
Please continue.
Sure.
I apologize.
Where was I?
Oh, right.
He had an insight into the future and gladly took risks for it.
He was a courageous young man.
He never took it easy.
During the 17 years I knew him,
he continued running toward his goal without stopping.
Believing that our country's future depended on science and technology,
he worked with a genuine sense of duty.
That unstoppable passion
might actually have been the reason
he passed away at such a young age.
I'd like to tell you another story
from the time when we were growing the business together.
I think it was back in 2007, if my memory serves me right.
The company almost went belly up...
I never thought you would come.
Since I wasn't able to attend his funeral last year,
I thought I should at least come here.
How are things for you? How's your health?
You're worried about me?
So? How are things for you these days?
I'm doing all right.
I heard that you've been drinking a lot.
Not enough to concern you.
Are you still taking your medication?
I should stop taking it.
Then you should make an effort.
I am trying.
Heaven and Earth are full of the Majesty.
Praise to you, Lord.
Through your goodness we have this bread to offer,
which the earth has given and human hands have made...
Hey, what's going on? When did you arrive in Seoul?
A while ago. About three months, I think.
-What? -Just like this water and wine...
What are you talking about?
I spoke with Jeong-hun last week. He didn't tell me.
I assumed you were in the States.
I told him not to tell anyone.
Why not?
Through your goodness we have received the wine we offer you,
fruit of the vine and work of human hands.
It will become our spiritual drink.
Do you...
still hallucinate?
No.
So you're okay now?
I have to be okay.
No one can live while hallucinating.
Right. I'm glad to hear that you're better now.
Let's catch up after.
I'll go to the office right away. I'll see you there.
As of today, I'm going back to work.
I've been quietly observing
for the past few months,
and things are going haywire at the company due to my absence.
The director is ignoring all my orders and instructions
and doing whatever he wants.
He's made the CEO look like
an incompetent lunatic who's incapable of making sound decisions.
Hey, how could you say that?
Enough. People are looking at you two.
All right, let's talk at the office.
I'm glad to see you.
Talk to him later.
Don't ruin the mass.
I'm sorry.
He said he came back three months ago.
You didn't know?
I really had no idea.
Mr. Seo just kept saying his condition wasn't improving.
Jeez, that prick.
What's the problem now?
It's none of your business.
This is the word of the lord.
Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ.
Lord.
We ask you to receive us and be pleased
with the sacrifice we offer you
with humble and contrite hearts.
Lord.
Wash away my iniquity
and cleanse me from my sin.
Pray, brethren,
that our sacrifice
may be acceptable to God,
the almighty Father.
Father.
In memory of Christ's death and resurrection,
we offer you this life-giving bread
and this life-saving chalice.
We thank you for considering us worthy
to stand in your presence
and serve you.
May all of us
who share in the body and blood of Christ
be brought together in unity by the Holy Spirit.
How do I make the sign of the cross?
I've never done it before.
Thanks.
Remember Michael Cha,
whom you called from this life
a year ago today.
In baptism, he died with Christ.
May he also
share his resurrection.

YOU HAVE DEFEATED MR. CHA
Let us pray.
Dear Lord, our savior.
We have gathered here today
to earnestly pray for Michael Cha who has left us.
Lord, please have mercy
and forgive all of Michael Cha's sins,
who longed for and believed in you whilst he was alive.
And let him find eternal peace
and happiness with the saints.
Also,
let all those who believe in you,
shout and praise you out loud,
and help us comfort and love one another
until we gather together in eternal joy.
Through Christ our Lord, we pray.
Yes, Mr. Park. We came back about three months ago.
I'm at the company right now.
Mr. Yoo wanted to start working from today.
I'm sorry. Mr. Yoo told me to keep it a secret.
-I had no-- -Still, how could you fool me?
You little...
What was he doing in Seoul without even telling me he'd returned?
-Well... -What did he do?
He didn't get treatment or come to work.
So what on Earth did he do?
He gamed.
What?
For three whole months, he gamed...
He played the game
every day, without even sleeping.

Did you read the tabloids?
I read that our boss is currently brain-dead.
Is it brain death this time? Last time, they said he had hemiplegia.
I'm serious. They were pretty specific this time.
He apparently fell from a hospital window.
-Why? -He tried to commit suicide.
Gosh, that's so awful.
I heard he's tried to commit suicide several times in Spain.
I heard that, too.
But that can't be true.
Apparently, he went nuts in the States
and tried to kill himself whenever he had the chance.
And this time, he succeeded.
He is brain-dead, a hopeless case.
Goodness, what if it's true?
He should hang in there until the game's released.
If his death gets announced before that,
our stocks will plummet.
It'll be such a disaster.
Don't worry about our stocks.
Mr. Yoo.
I'll stay alive until the stock option event,
so don't worry, just work.
-Get in. -It's okay, sir.
You can go first.
Mr. Yoo, are you okay?
You're okay, right?
Be careful of stairs.
If you fall, you'll end up like me.
Yes, sir.
Have you guys been well?
-Yes. -Yes.
Which rumor was the most popular?
Pardon?
Number one.
Yoo Jin-woo's gone crazy.
Number two. He's dead.
Number three. A murderer.
Number four. He attempted suicide.
Which one was reported in the tabloids the most?
I reckon it would've been
either number one
or number three.
Hello, sir.
You're here already?
Mr. Park told me that he'd just left.
I thought you'd come with him.
I wasn't made very welcome, so I couldn't stay there any longer.
Oh, right. Hi, J.
Turn on Go Yu-ra's interview footage.
It's an entertainment show that aired yesterday.
I told you about it this morning.
Now let's talk about the actress Go Yu-ra. Seul-gi, what can you tell us?
Well, okay...
Go Yu-ra has garnered some attention after uploading a photo
of herself looking sad on social media.
She uploaded a photo she took in LA with the caption:
"I will stay by your side forever."
Go Yu-ra's husband was severely injured and was receiving treatment in the States.
And she's been receiving sympathy and support from netizens
after uploading photos of herself taking care of her husband.
But right after the uploads,
J One Holdings released a statement
saying that Mr. Yoo isn't in the States
and that he's never even met Go Yu-ra.
So who's telling the truth?
Does this mean Go Yu-ra is faking it?
That's why we, Entertainment Magazine,
went to the airport ourselves this morning to meet Go Yu-ra
as she arrived in Korea from LA.
Let's take a look at the footage.
Yu-ra, can you please give us an explanation?
J One Holdings just announced
that Mr. Yoo has never actually met you. Is that true?
Do you think they know my husband better than I do?
They don't know anything about our marriage.
Who exactly made that announcement?
Then are you saying the company's lying?
I'll just tell you one thing.
They're ruining my husband's life.
They're extremely cruel. I'm telling you.
How could they...
I'm going to fight 'til the end
to protect my husband.
That's all I can tell you.
I'm sure I'll be able to reveal the truth one day.
-Thank you. We'll see you again. -Yu-ra.
Yu-ra.
Both parties are saying very different things.
I wonder what the truth is.
Nothing's for sure yet,
but Go Yu-ra says she's planning on filing a lawsuit
against J One Holdings for libel.
And J One Holdings will probably countersue.
So it looks like this may well lead
to a messy fight between the two.
We'll just have to see how things turn out.
We'll update you as soon as...
Damn it.
A NEW USER HAS SIGNED IN
YOU HAVE ENCOUNTERED ZINU
Mr. Yoo.
It's been a while.
How's everything going?
Where's Yang-ju?
Where did he go?
He's probably in his office.
Okay. Carry on with your work.
Oh, I almost forgot.
Can you try to improve this?
I don't like this weapon.
The trigger reacts too slowly.
It responds 0.5 seconds too slow. I need you to look into it.
And this one has a problem with the panoramic sight.
It always misses even though I aim correctly.
But...
only users over level 70 can buy that weapon.
Check on them both.
Mr. Yoo's user ID was Zinu, wasn't it?
Is he the user from earlier?

-Hello? -Sir, I heard you're at the office.
Where are you now?
In the bathroom with a bad stomach.
Why did you show up all of a sudden? You told me to keep it a secret.
Mr. Park just called and got angry at me.
Is there alcohol in your office?
Alcohol?
I've got a bottle I got as a gift.
Check the drawer behind the sofa.
I found it.
ZINU: LEVEL 85, ATTACK 7,915, DEFENSE 3,195
Mr. Yoo.
Why did you suddenly show up and surprise everyone?
Mr. Park's really angry at me.
-What's that? -Pardon?
Oh, you must've logged in.
What's she doing there?
You mean Emma?
She's my favorite character. Isn't she gorgeous?
I knew she was my type the moment I saw her. She's perfect.
I absolutely adore her.
Let me show you something.
Hi, J.
Please stop, Emma.
I made a few outfits for her. Take a look.
Hi, J. Please change Emma's outfit.
There's this one.
Hi, J.
Show us her next outfit.
And this one is the sexy look.
Hi, J.
Can you switch to elegant dress mode?
Emma's so pretty that she looks good in everything.
-How far are you going to take this? -This is it.
I've come up with some other outfits, too.
Like the R-rated dress, for example.
I was going to discuss it with you.
Due to portrait rights, in Granada
we have to delete all NPCs.
However,
it'll be too sad to see Emma go.
She's the only Asian NPC in the original game,
so she'd be a hit in Seoul, Tokyo, Beijing, etc.
If we station her in Seoul,
male users will go crazy for her.
Are you insane?
No, I'm dead serious.
-Erase her. -We just have to meet her
and pay for her portrait rights.
Who'd refuse a payout anyway?
That's not possible.
Why not?
Mr. Park said that he knows her.
I heard she's a Korean living in Granada.
We can probably talk her into it.
Didn't you hear me?
Erase her.
She's my favorite NPC.
So?
I've also increased her intimacy level
and she speaks nicely.
I bet she's pretty in person, too.
What's she like?
What does she do in Granada?
I don't know.
I heard you know her, too.
We haven't been in touch.
-Is Jin-woo here? -Yes, he's in his office.
Unbelievable.
Come on in.
Look at yourself
and remember what you said:
"I'm having my own way with the company"?
You want to get back to work but
the first thing you do is drink.
Is this what you call "work"?
I was just complaining.
I went at you...
because I felt ignored.
Nobody ignored you!
It's how I felt then.
I've become petty.
Is it an inferiority complex?
Right, I guess it is.
This must be how Hyeong-seok felt when he left the company.
I didn't know why he kept picking fights,
but now I do.
I suddenly hated you.
I wanted to get back to work but I can't.
How can I go into meetings when I'm always drunk?
-I'll leave it to you. -Is this some kind of warning?
You're here to say you're still watching.
Unbelievable.
I hear you were here playing the game.
You, Jeong-hun and Yang-ju all fooled me.
How could you do this to me?
What the hell are you up to?
You gave up
on physical therapy and the company.
You drink, pop pills, and play the game.
Then you drink and play some more. How long will you--
I'm trying hard to restore balance to my life.
Imagine being in a battlefield every day.
I see blood, get stabbed, kill others,
and worry about dying.
Try doing that
for 365 days.
You'd be popping pills, too.
You said the vision had stopped.
No, I still see him every day.
I couldn't tell Professor Cha that I see his son covered in blood every day.
Truth be told,
I thought about
killing myself a few times,
just like the rumors say.
Ending my life might bring me comfort.
The server wasn't the issue.
I kept seeing him even after I escaped to America.

I may seem pathetic to you but I haven't given up on my life yet.

It seems like he's gotten worse...
I'll call again
after I talk to Jeong-hun.

Mother suggested we have dinner together.
Maybe next time.
We'll get the chance.
You should head home.

Sir, are you home?
No, not yet.
Well...
Mr. Park dragged me to dinner.
How much should I tell him?
That's your choice.
But he'll think you're crazy, too.
I'll take care of it then.
Oh, right.
Yes?
How is Ms. Jung doing these days?
Ms. Jung Hee-ju?
I haven't heard from her in a while.
I heard that she set up a guitar workshop recently.
A guitar workshop?
Yes.
I guess it's going pretty well.
She asked me to drop by but I haven't had the chance yet.
Would you like to go with me tomorrow?
Are you asking me to go to Granada tomorrow?
No, Ilsan.
Her workshop is in Ilsan.
She's in Korea?
Yes. All of her family moved back to Korea a while ago.
Did you not read the e-mail?
I stopped reading them a while back.
I even told you in person that...
You probably don't remember because you were drunk at the time.
Okay, don't worry about it. I'll look for it myself.

Okay.
But until when?
Until we find Jung Se-ju.
SE-JU, THIS IS HEE-JU
Se-ju, I'm relieved
that you wrote me back.
You should have written to us sooner. We were so worried about you.
Grandma,
I got an e-mail from Se-ju.
He was on his way home but his friend wanted to travel,
so he's in Madrid now.
Travel?
Why is he traveling all of a sudden?
He's a piece of work.
He's probably thinking of ways
to spend money now that we're rich.
Fine.
Traveling with his friends is much better than
being cooped up in his room.
Grandma is happy because she thinks traveling with your friend is better
than staying in your room.
She even told me to give you some money since you're traveling.
I told you, right?
We're rich now. Let me know if you need more money.
Se-ju,
I'm in Seoul now.
It's snowing so much here.
-It's so cold. -I'm looking for a new house in Korea.
-It's so pretty. -Remember what I wrote the other day?
Things are different in Korea.
In Korea, it's usually the instructors
that teach the students...
Sang-beom keeps suggesting that we open a workshop together in Korea.
I'm thinking about it.
It's that building.
What building?
J One.
Yoo Jin-woo's company.
I think he's still in the States.
I heard all sorts of rumors about him.
Se-ju,
we're finally done packing our stuff.
We packed up everything in your room
like you asked.
Why does he want to take all this garbage?
Grandma is throwing a fit because it hiked up the moving fee.
Goodness, unbelievable.
This is our house?
-Oh, my! -Isn't it beautiful?
We went through a lot to find this house.
This is great.
So awesome!
Oh, my god!
I can't believe this. My gosh!
My goodness.
I'll send photos of our house.
I'm sure you'll like it, too.
You know what time it is now?
Go sit down.
I'm late. I'm just going to go.
I told you to go to sleep early last night.
Do you think we're still in Spain?
You know that Korean students study really hard, right?
I can't believe you overslept.
I'll go drop her off.
This is our life now.
After Min-ju goes to school, our great-aunts come over.
Yes!
Look at my cards.
And we're turning the storage room into a guitar workshop.
I'm going into partnership with Sang-beom.
-I'm really nervous, Se-ju. -You can move this, right?
Yes, we can move this.
-Please get started on it. -Sure.
The only thing that's been troubling me is...

Hello, Ms. Jung. It's been a while.
Have you been well?
Mr. Yoo is doing fine. I'll send him your regards.
Stay warm in the cold.
I read a lot of bad articles, so I was worried...

How is his leg?
Thanks.
You too. Take care of yourself.
Thank you.

Smile. One, two, three.
GUITAR WORKSHOP
Se-ju.
I finally have my own workshop.
A workshop in my own name.
Emma's workshop.
One, two, three.
I hope you can see it soon.
GUITAR WORKSHOP
Excuse me.
How can I help you?
Long time no see.
I would've looked cool if I'd run over to cover you.
I can't do that anymore.
Have you been well?
Yes.
Please come in.
I suppose your family are out.
Min-ju is at a private lesson.
Grandma is visiting a relative.
They'd have been here to see you if you'd called first.
Right. Let me put these away first.
They need to go in the fridge.
Please have a seat.
Would you like some coffee?
Sounds good.
I didn't know you were in Seoul.
Mr. Seo and I texted recently.
It sounded like you were in the States.
If someone finds out I'm in Seoul, it'll get too noisy.
You know who I mean.
Your workshop looks great.
Congratulations.
Thank you.
How's business?
I sold three guitars so far.
-Only three? -That's considered a lot.
I'm lucky if I finish one a month. It takes a long time.
Will it be profitable?
I have a lot of money. You gave me a lot.
I'm doing what I want to do.
Not everyone is lucky like me.
Good for you.
Should I learn to play the guitar, too?
I'm unemployed right now.
Do you also give guitar lessons?
By the way,
you seem different.
-Me? -You seem composed.
Did you mature in a year?
No way. I'm still the same.
No.
You're not as cheerful as before.
I guess I grew up then.
No one can stay cheerful all the time.
I hope
your family are doing well?
Yes.
Except for my brother who still hasn't returned.
Only my brother worries me.
He said he'd come to Seoul once we moved here
but he still hasn't come.
He didn't stay in touch with you?
He...
He does.
He regularly sends me e-mails.
You have nothing to worry about then. He'll come soon.
Guys at his age don't think about their family that much.
He'll come once it gets boring and he needs money.
Why are you pretending?
I know what you came here to talk about.
-About what? -E-mails I get from Se-ju.
You're writing them, aren't you?
He kept sending me e-mails while traveling.
I didn't think much of it at first because he's like that.
But something was off because it didn't sound like him.
Still, I thought I was wrong. Who'd write his e-mails for him?
But I talked to a friend of mine in Granada not long ago.
I heard...
the hostel is still there.
You said it was urgent and bought it for ten billion won from me.
But it's been abandoned.
And thinking back,
your visit to the hostel was odd.
I didn't suspect anything because of the money.
Se-ju used to research games every day.
I saw on the news that your company is going to release a new game.
I don't know why I didn't figure out
it was something to do with him.
I didn't want to worry my grandma, so I couldn't say anything.
I couldn't even ask Mr. Seo because I was scared.
I wanted to meet with you,
but I couldn't reach you.
I'd only heard bad rumors about you.
Those e-mails from Se-ju...
you wrote them, didn't you?
I didn't write them.
I had Jeong-hun write them.
It was me. I told him to do so.
Why?
I didn't want you to worry.
Where is...
Se-ju?
I don't know.
It's been a year and I still can't find him.
-Could he-- -I don't believe he's dead.
I didn't know it'd take this long.
How...
How could you do this to me?
I trusted you.
I really thought you'd helped our family.
I was grateful, and sincerely worried about you.
I was heartbroken after the way you left.
I've thought about it for the past year.
I told you...
not to trust me too much.
And that I'm not as decent as you think.
I told you that you might regret it later.
Where are you going? Are you running away again?
Are you running away from me again?
Don't you think it's the game that's crazy, not me?
He may not have gone missing. He could be hiding.
Don't ever come here again.
Don't contact me either.
Sure.
Se-ju is alive.
We just haven't found him yet.
Mr. Yoo, please help me level up.
Why is he being so stubborn?
This is an order, Seon-ho.
No one can understand this
unless they've tried it themselves.
Are you going to Granada?
You'll never be able to find Se-ju
even if you go there.
I told you Se-ju was alive.
I'll prove it to you
if you want me to.
