SEE YOU IN MY 19TH LIFE
NO SUCH THING AS RETREAT
MY 1ST LIFE
Hello, Master Cheon-un.
How are things coming along?
Materials from the spiritual mountain were used to create this dye,
so you may rest easy.
These cloths will form the knot of the sacred shaman bells.
Make sure they are flawless as they will be used for the ritual.
I am putting my utmost care into them.
They should be done in fifteen days.
Let us go.
Such nagging.
It is to be expected since it is an important task.
Calm your temper.
I at least need to have a temper
since you're too kind and gentle.
Oh, you.
I told you to rest. Are you all right?
I'm fine.
No, you're not. Let's get you inside.
Seol.
Seol, let's get inside.
Come on.
Seol.
Seol is much too frail.
This is the last resort I have for her.
Su!
Sir?
Su.
Medicine reserved for the royals in Seorabeol Palace
may save Seol's life.
Is that true?
Thank you.
Thank you, sir.
But…
it will not be easy to obtain.
Money is of no concern.
It is not a matter of money.
What's the matter, sir?
I need to save her.
I must save her.
Follow me.
I have brought the dyed cloths for the shaman bells' knot.
Why are you not handing them over?
Here they are, sir.
The colors are beautiful.
Well done.
A prayer must be offered before I tie these cloths to the bells.
I must be alone.
Empty the shrine
and let no one in.
Did you say the shrine's shaman bells?
Seorabeol is currently suffering through a severe drought.
So the palace is gathering spiritual items that could bring about rain.
Those shaman bells
could be exchanged for the rare medicine.
Are you certain
that Seol can be saved?
But, Su…
It's too dangerous.
If you dare to steal from the shrine,
you may anger the gods.
Su, where are we going?
Just hold on for a bit. You have to trust me.
Stop right there!
Run, Seol!
What's all this about, sir?
Hand over the shaman bells.
Shaman bells?
What do you mean?
Su!
I've committed a grave sin.
But my sister is dying.
What could be more important to me than that?
Master Cheon-un.
I can save her if I take these bells to Seorabeol.
Please grant us mercy and let us go on our way.
I may be of lowly birth,
but I shall dedicate the rest of my life to serve the heavens.
A human life lasts 100 years at most,
while the heavens span hundreds and thousands of years.
How could you ever serve enough?
Seol!
Please, I beg you!
These bells…
These bells can easily be made again.
But my sister will die if not treated at the right time.
So I beg you, sir.
I will gladly submit to the anger of the heavens--
There is also a right time for the rituals!
A person is dying before you!
So how could the heavens or rituals be more important?
What kind of gods do you serve?
Are they unable to have mercy on us helpless human beings?
What use are the heavens
if there are no people to worship them?
Ji-eum.
Are you okay?
Seol…
Seol, look at me.
Please, just hold on.
It'll be all right.
It's okay.
Please hold on.
Please.
Su…
Thank you for everything.
Seol.
-Seol. -Seol.
Seol.
Oh, no. Seol!
Seol!
Seol.
-What do I do… -You're okay.
-You're okay, Ji-eum. -No…
Seol!
I'll kill you.
I'll kill you!
-I'll kill you. -Please.
-I'll kill you. -Ji-eum.
I'll kill you.
Ji-eum.
It's me, Ji-eum.
It's Seo-ha.
Seo…
Seo-ha.
What happened?
Ji-eum,
what happened?
I saw my first life.
My sister died.
He killed her.
My sister died.
-It's okay. -Seol…
Ji-eum.
Han-ya.
You killed her.
You killed my sister.
Ji-eum.
I'm Seo-ha.
Look at me.
I'm Seo-ha.
Oh, my goodness.
I just choked you…
How could I…
No, it's all right.
It's all right.
I'm so sorry.
I…
I think I need to be alone right now.
Don't come near me.
I can't leave you like this.
Please.
I need to be alone.
Ji-eum.
I'm sorry.
Please just go.
Give me a call.
I'll be waiting.
Hello?
WEBTOON ORIGINAL SERIES SEE YOU IN MY 19TH LIFE CREATED BY LEE HEY
I thought you might not come.
Do you also know about past lives?
I also remember my past lives
just like Ms. Ban.
I'm in Ms. Ban's first life…
that she saw.
And so are you.
Ji-eum is in a bad state.
I'd do anything--
There's nothing you can do.
You have no idea…
what it's like to remember past lives.
I know it's more than simply having a lot of memories of the past.
Do you have…
any memories that are painful just to think about?
I do.
She has 19 memories
just like that.
She can never forget them
or share them with anyone.
It's beyond your imagination.
That just means I should try harder.
Ji-eum did the same for me.
When I was struggling,
she never left me alone.
I'm going to do what she did.
I was going to ask you for advice,
but it seems you don't have any, so I'll just do it my way.
I do have one piece of advice.
Please help Ms. Ban
become normal.
Only you
can convince Ms. Ban.
In bad times, remember the happy moments.
I'm by your side.
When your past trauma haunts you
and you feel like you're sinking,
think of these flowers.
Then the emotions you feel right now
may motivate you to keep going.
Think of these flowers.
It's Seo-ha.
Can you even say
that this life is a new life for you?
Aren't you just clinging onto your past relationships?
It's all right.
Reconnecting with those from the past will only cause problems.
And normally, the ones who suffer are not us who remember our past lives,
but them.
I told you to keep your neck warm so you don't get a cold.
-It's so suffocating. -It's not.
You used to get colds all the time and have a runny nose.
-Goodness. You never listened to me once. -Ji-eum.
How did such a good kid like you…
come to me?
You have no idea
how happy I was raising you.
Thank you for coming to me, Ji-eum.
Ms. Kim's not the only one, is she?
People from your past whom you've reconnected with.
Those people
will meet the same fate as Ms. Kim.
The rest of the pots will take two more days.
I love them so much.
Thank you.
It was nothing. Goodbye.
Your bag.
Thank you. I'll be off.
Ice cream.
Hello, I'm Ha Do-jin.
To be honest,
I unintentionally overheard you two that night.
You two like each other,
but Do-yun turned you away because of family background issues.
Am I right?
Yes.
My brother
had to grow up quickly when our father passed.
He had to raise me by himself.
He faked his age since middle school
to work part-time while studying.
He barely slept two hours a day.
But I was too young to know that.
I'd ask him when he'd go to work so he could buy me snacks.
I guess I really knew nothing
about Mr. Ha.
After you left that night…
Do-yun cried.
He was watching you leave,
motionless.
That's when I knew.
That he must really like you.
I didn't know Mr. Ha liked me that much.
So why am I so sad?
Knowing that he liked me but still kept it to himself…
It'll be even harder for me to get close to him.
I thought we felt differently.
I assumed I liked him more.
So I thought it was tougher for me.
But if that's not the case,
what do I do now?
EVERY TIME THE NEXT LIFE CAME, THEN THE NEXT,
IT FELT LIKE MORE AND MORE ROCKS WEIGHED HER HEART DOWN
That's not all.
I was an excellent warrior in the Goryeo Dynasty.
I survived a war in Spain and the Japanese invasion.
I was also part of a circus troupe and was amazing at the flying trapeze.
People lined up to see me.
I was Ae-gyeong's uncle when I was in the circus.
It was thanks to Ae-gyeong's trust in me
that I got to meet you when you were in high school.
I thought she was fine because she was always smiling.
I'm in Ms. Ban's first life…
that she saw.
And so are you.
Han-ya.
You killed her.
You killed my sister.
DIRECTOR LEE OF MI GROUP WAS SENT TO THE PROSECUTION
AFTER HAVING CONFESSED TO HIS CRIMES TO THE POLICE
-It's Director Mun! -He's here!
-Regarding the criminal motive… -Did Director Lee confess on his own?
Are you perhaps keeping quiet about his other criminal deeds?
What are your thoughts on his prosecution?
Are you aware that he will be prosecuted?
Do you feel justified?
No.
My heart is heavy.
This could have all been covered up.
Why bring it to the surface?
It wasn't something
a simple apology could cover up.
Ju-won…
and Do-yun's father passed away.
If you had known the truth then,
could you have handled it?
I would have.
Even if it meant
getting on my knees next to you.
Seo-ha.
I'm sorry.
You're just like your father.
He did the same thing then.
What?
I knew all about Ju-won's accident since many years ago.
And who was behind it.
Your father told me everything
before you went to Germany.
I couldn't protect Ju-won…
but I wanted to protect you.
Because…
you're the son of my precious friend.
I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.
Doing that was better
than revealing the truth.
I did all this…
to protect you.
I understand that you were trying to protect me.
But it was wrong.
Because the two of us…
are only left with scars.
Cut the nonsense.
You know nothing about what happened ten years ago.
Director Lee, Seo-ha's uncle…
I heard it straight from him.
That's all nonsense.
You seem rattled.
You know that Director Lee trusts me a lot.
Why in the world would Sang-hyuck…
tell you everything?
You should ask him yourself.
Now…
I wonder who I should tell about this.
Please forgive me.
-It was my mistake. -Mistake?
My son lost his hearing because of your blunder!
-And an innocent kid died. -That was never my intention.
I regret it every day.
Then you should've kept it secret until the end!
But you've gone and told Yeon-ok all about it.
Act like nothing happened.
Things will only get complicated if people find out.
But make sure…
Seo-ha never finds out.
Ever.
You understand?
I'm sorry.
Why are you here?
I'm here to see Ms. Kim.
Why would you?
You seem on edge.
I have all the reasons to be.
Cheon-un.
You were also in my first life.
It's been a while…
since you called me that.
You approached me because you knew, didn't you?
You knew we had ties in our past lives.
Why didn't you tell me?
Because you don't remember that life.
What's so great about what you remember?
You could just tell me.
You need to remember it on your own.
Especially your first life.
The shaman bells only act as a guide.
Remembering it is up to you.
Ji-eum.
Are you okay?
Seol…
What…
was I doing then?
You were at the shrine.
And you were next to Han-ya in the field of reeds.
So you didn't see all of it.
If you want to save Ms. Kim,
find out about your first life until it ends.
-And if I do? -I told you already.
In your first life,
you'll see the person who made you remember your past lives.
Find out who it is.
Are you sure I can save Ae-gyeong?
Can I trust you?
Just try it.
Ms. Ban,
it's very rare for you to meet
people from your first life in the same form.
It took you a thousand years.
Sadly…
I haven't had the chance myself.
So I can't end this life even if I want to.
The bells.
I'll leave them with you.
Once you finish seeing all of your first life,
come find me.
You'll have no choice but to look for me anyway.
Here we go.
The sunlight's so nice today.
What's this?
This stuff could make a ghost look good.
It's chicken porridge.
Your memory really is exceptional.
It really is, my damn memory.
It looks so good.
Thank you.
I made it, so it has to be good.
It tastes amazing.
Of course.
Ae-gyeong.
I'm going to save you no matter what.
I will this time.
It's my resolution that lasted a thousand years.
I see now that you're the one who's scared, not me.
I'll feed you a bite.
My goodness.
Open up.
Look at you eating so well.
It's so delicious.
-Ae-gyeong. -Yes?
Shall I fly the airplane?
Goodness. I can't be doing that stuff at my age.
Here comes the airplane.
What a good girl!
Hey.
Just hold on.
It's okay. Please hold on.
Please.
Su…
Thank you for everything.
What's the matter?
I'm just happy to see you.
I missed you a lot.
Me too.
It's nice to come to an art gallery together.
I wanted to come with you.
Let's go in.
Cho-won.
Thank you for being healthy.
I guess you must be quite scared because of Ms. Kim's condition.
She should be okay after surgery, right?
She will be.
Wishes come true if you're desperate enough.
That's probably why you and I met again.
We met again because you came looking for me.
You have no idea how grateful I am for that.
You and I may have known each other for much longer.
They're all connected.
Sort of like you and me.
It gives off a warm feeling.
I think deep relationships,
whether forged out of love or out of hate,
are destined to intertwine again
as family or as lovers.
You think so?
Then I guess it's also destined for certain relationships to not work out.
Come to think of it, plants are just the same.
No matter how hard I try,
some trees just don't grow.
And some flowers don't bloom even after they're meant to.
It may take a long time,
but destined relationships are bound to work out.
I don't think so.
I think it's time for me to let go.
It's the right thing to do.
We can go with this for the promotion.
-Well done. -Thank you.
We will discuss the specifics among ourselves.
-Great work. -Thank you.
How's Ms. Ban?
Did you say that her aunt was hospitalized?
Yeah.
She's not her actual aunt,
but she's closer to her than family.
I'm clocking out.
All right.
Hey, it's Ms. Ban.
It's me, Mr. Ha.
Yes, Ms. Ban?
I'll keep it short.
If Cho-won really lets you go for the last time,
it'll be you who won't be able to let her go.
What do you mean?
I really hope
my words get stuck in your heart.
Also…
about Director Mun…
What is it?
Please take care of Director Mun.
Don't get careless without me there.
Please tell him to wait a little.
Why don't you tell him yourself?
I have some business to take care of.
And…
if I call or text, I'd want to go see him.
But I don't know what I might do to him again.
I'm just holding back for a bit.
All right.
Then goodbye.
How could you just…
She called me. Call her if you want to see her.
I'm not going to call her.
I'm going to go to her.
Hey.
Stop mulling things over.
Don't be scared and just do it.
I'm clocking out.
He's becoming more and more like Ms. Ban.
I miss Seo-ha.
Ji-eum.
Please.
-Mr. Heo. -Yes?
Does Ms. Yoon have work outside today?
She said she'll be back from the garden after checking on the inventory.
You think too much, Mr. Ha.
You should just be straightforward sometimes.
I feel so sick.
It seems this is the place for you to be.
It's not often in life
that someone desperately needs you.
I'm here because I didn't want to wait.
How much longer do I have to?
I'm sorry.
Can I go over there?
I'm sorry.
Why would you be sorry?
I know I'm in your past life.
And I know I've hurt you a lot.
I thought about it all night.
About what I might have done wrong in my past life
and how I could make you feel better.
But no matter how hard I thought,
nothing came to mind.
So I just want to apologize.
I'm sorry I can't do anything for you.
It was a past life I'd completely forgotten about anyway.
And a thousand years have passed since then.
I'm not going to be shaken by something that happened in the past.
Then why did you run away?
I put you in danger.
I was so sorry
that I couldn't bring myself to see you.
But I'm not dead, am I?
I should've expected that much when I decided to like someone
who remembers her past lives.
Naturally,
I was just worried about you.
You used to jump into danger the first chance you got.
And that shook you?
You really are a strange person.
So I've decided
to stop being so strange.
There's a way for me to become normal.
If I stop remembering my past lives…
everything will be okay.
Please help Ms. Ban become normal.
No matter what choice you make,
and no matter who you are…
I'll be by your side.
I'll tell you what to do.
And…
what comes afterward.
There's something afterward?
Yes.
How could I forget you?
You don't have to be here.
Don't worry.
What if…
I attack you again?
You won't get me twice.
I let you attack me then because you caught me off guard.
You came this far.
So make sure to look at everything.
Don't miss anything.
I'll be here.
Get out of my way.
I'm going to kill him.
Would your sister be happy
if you killed him?
Do not repay blood…
with blood.
Please…
take care of yourself.
Please take care of yourself.
Something's strange.
What did I miss?
He's Master Han-ya from the shrine.
The heavens span hundreds and thousands of years.
How could you ever serve enough?
Seol.
Seol!
Please, I beg you!
She's already past saving.
Su!
Let her pass away.
No human can defy the will of the heavens.
No!
A person is dying before you!
So how could the heavens or rituals be more important?
What kind of gods do you serve?
Are they unable to have mercy on us helpless human beings?
What use are the heavens
if there are no people to worship them?
Keep resisting and you will face death.
Let go when you have the chance.
Please, I beg you.
We have no time to delay.
Seol… Oh, no.
Seol.
Just hold on.
Please hold on.
Seol.
Seol…
-This is what you wanted. -Seol.
-There is nothing like death -Seol.
to bring someone peace.
The time for the ritual is near.
We must not delay.
Seol…
It was Cheon-un.
He was the one who killed Seol and even tried to kill me.
It wasn't Seo-ha.
None of that matters anymore.
Get out of my way.
Get out of my way!
Stop!
All I wanted…
was to save a life.
I will never forget this day.
I shall forever
remember this rage.
Be it hundreds or thousands of years, I shall remember this and be born again.
And I will get my revenge…
no matter what.
SEE YOU IN MY 19TH LIFE
There's someone I need to meet.
Mr. Ha.
I'm sorry for everything, and thank you for liking me.
I came here to see you, Ms. Yoon.
I was waiting for you.
I will never forgive you.
If my being strange is an issue, then I'll become normal.
I'm going to be happy in this life with the people I love.
Putting an end to remembering your past lives
means you'll lose the memories of the people from them.
I don't want to forget.
I want to remember them.
