[birds twittering]
[♪ sentimental music playing]
[chuckles]
- Did I keep you waiting? - Hmm?
You're here.
I just split up with my crew.
Kangji?
[gasps] Have you been watching us?
[chuckles]
Let's go.
[♪ romantic music playing]
[no audible dialogue]
[♪ music continues]
[no audible dialogue]
- [grunts] - Hmm?
Geez, sorry. How long was I asleep?
[chuckles] Sleep a bit more. You must've been tired.
[exhales sharply]
I'm good.
I doubt I'm more worn out
than you angels who protect humans.
All I do is spot evil spirits.
Don't sell yourself short.
Ogwi.
The gift God gave you is special.
If evil spirits get past the magic barrier,
you're the only one who can detect and find the soul stones.
But will I be able to uphold my duty?
I failed to spot them again.
That doesn't mean you lack power.
- [sighs] - Even the necklace reacted.
I don't know what's going on.
This time, the evil spirit vanished
just moments after I sensed its presence.
Also, I don't know why,
but I feel like I'm being watched.
Don't worry too much.
We're all trying hard to fight off evil spirits,
and whatever happens,
I'll protect you.
[both chuckle]
[inhales deeply] You know,
I've started praying.
You said it yourself. Marok is human,
but he was granted his powers after long years of praying.
When I gain power like Marok's to vanquish evil spirits,
I'll be able to live among the angels,
and we'll never have to be separated again.
Don't do it.
Don't even think about it.
[♪ somber music playing]
What?
Don't try to change for me by saying dangerous prayers.
I don't want that.
I like you for who you are right now, Ogwi.
Why don't we
just tell everyone about us?
[scoffs] Don't be absurd.
They wouldn't understand even if we told them.
Why haven't you told them if it's that simple?
So do you want to keep sneaking around?
That's why I'm willing to pray--
Stop!
You want to be an angel?
You have no idea
how dangerous it is to fight evil spirits.
[sighs]
Sneaking around like this is just as risky.
Kangji already knows about us.
[sighs]
Mirr.
Have faith in me.
Even if God ignores my prayers
and the other angels disapprove of us, nothing will change.
My feelings for you won't change.
Soon, the black moon will rise,
and the Hellmouth will open right after.
Spread the word
and divide the angels.
[♪ ominous music playing]
[wind howling]
You're here.
[thunder rumbling]
[screaming]
[♪ melancholy music playing]
[sighs]
I've started praying. You said it yourself. Marok is human,
but he was granted his powers after long years of praying.
When I gain power like Marok's to vanquish evil spirits,
I'll be able to live among the angels,
and we'll never have to be separated again.
[shadows gush]
[groans]
[footsteps approaching]
Are you the one
who's been hovering around me?
[shadows rustling]
Why have you been watching me?
[chuckles]
[Samin] Because
I thought you might be different
from other humans.
Why are you being foolishly stubborn?
It's not like God will answer your prayers.
You're nothing more than a powerless human.
Do you seriously believe
God would entrust a mere human with ultimate power
that could shift the balance of the world?
If you wish to be with Mirr,
there's only one path.
Abandon your fragile human form
and gain power greater than that of the angels.
Rather than obeying the angels,
make them follow your orders.
Want my help?
Who are you?
Humans call your god Light...
and me...
Darkness.
Ogwi,
I'll grant you a new life. [chuckles]
[grunts]
[♪ dramatic music playing]
[Ogwi screaming]
[Ogwi] Why should I?
Tell me why I should do as you say.
Enough!
Those are his orders.
Have you forgotten
how you went from a mere human to a being with power?
The scattered angels have located the Hellmouth
and have begun to gather.
We can't handle them all,
but as long as we have Mirr's soul,
they won't be able to merge their powers.
Even at the Hellmouth,
they'll be helpless.
- If we don't stop them now-- - "We"?
[sighs]
"We"?
[Samin groaning]
Know your place.
You're nothing but a worthless high priest who lent your powerless body
to Darkness and cast some petty spells.
Don't you think it's absurd of you to think that we're equals
just because we share a goal?
Don't get cocky and heed my words.
Your only task
is to take orders from me and preserve that pitiful life you have.
From this point forward,
don't even try to walk in my shadow.
Keep your distance and follow me in silence.
[♪ ominous music playing]
[footsteps running]
[panting]
It's been a while.
Are you here alone?
Why did you betray us?
[scoffs]
I asked why you betrayed us!
[Kangji breathing shakily]
I got bored.
What?
I grew tired
of being stuck within the fence built by God.
What about Mirr?
I only chose to live the way I want to.
Nothing has changed.
[Samin] What are you doing?
Kill her already.
[Kangji] Come back with me.
Taesan will surely help you.
It's still not too late to ask for God's forgiveness.
Forgiveness?
I prayed for countless days.
Your God is the one who abandoned me,
and your filthy rules that divide angels from humans
destroyed my everything.
I'll ask you one last time.
Come back with me, Ogwi.
For Mirr's sake.
- Stay still like that... - [gulps]
...for this is the last time I spare your life for Mirr's sake.
[breathing shakily]
Ogwi, no.
No, it can't be.
No...
No, you can't.
Ogwi, please. [sobs]
[panting]
Mirr!
It's dangerous to go alone.
Unbelievable.
[♪ melancholy music playing]
Ogwi...
[wings flapping]
You fool.
[sniffles]

[sobbing continues]
[inhales sharply]

[♪ mysterious music playing]
[wind whistling]
[gasping]
[grunts]
[♪ melancholy ballad playing]
Why did you come back here?
Your memories...
are back.
So much has changed
that I couldn't tell where I was anymore.
This was the only place I could recall.
I'll get Chief.
Running away like last time...
It won't do anyone any good.
Will I be confined again then?
[sighs]
Why did you make such a choice back then?
Why did you betray us and stand with evil spirits?
I betrayed you?
That must be how you self-absorbed angels saw it.
All I wanted was to...
[grunts]
[breathing heavily]
Forget it.
It doesn't matter anymore.
Mirr. [groaning]
TAESAN BUILDING

[Taesan sighs]
Let's go.
- [screams] - [evil spirit growls]
Help!
- [citizens clamoring] - Get them.
[evil spirits growling]
[citizens screaming, clamoring]
[panting]
[screams]
[♪ ominous music playing]
[shushes]
- [grunts] - It's okay.
[Geumsoon] You need to stick around for centuries more
and keep protecting the innocent.
I quit protecting humans long ago.
You know that.
If evil spirits return...
[chuckles] ...you'll protect us like you did in the past.
[sighs]
[news anchor] Take precautions to avoid damage,
and please stay indoors for your own safety.
Also...
- [citizens screaming] - [exclaims]
UNNATURAL PHENOMENON IN THE SKY CAUSING PANIC
It's a mess.
[citizens screaming]
- Stop the van. - What? What about Mirr?
- Pull over already. - [grunts]
[clamoring]
Chief, I smell something nasty from over there.
[♪ intense electronica playing]
[clamoring continues]
Got it.
Don't kill the evil spirits. We can turn them back into humans!
Noted.
I'll be gentle.
Be gentle!
[sighs]
[♪ ominous music playing]
[elevator dings]
This way.
[sighs deeply] I believe we paid back the loan we took out.
So what are you doing here, sir?
[sighs] Let us in.
The boss isn't around right now.
I'm not here for him.
He really isn't here.
- We need to get back there. - Please come back next time.
[screaming]
[groans]
[Yangsu] This liquor is very expensive and hard to come by.
Huh?
Yangsu...
- [chuckles] - ...is this whiskey or cognac?
Hard liquor is basically whiskey.
Alcohol was my major in school, babe.
- Were you in school? - Of course.
I was in school for 15 years,
located in different parts of the country.
You were in school for a long time.
Was it a PhD program?
Sora, shall we stop drinking now?
- Hmm? - Why? I'm loving it.
[person 2 screams, pants]
What's with the ruckus?
See what's going on.
- Yes, boss. - Yes, boss.
- [thuds] - What the hell?
[exclaims]
[grunts]
[exhales sharply]
Who is this punk?
- Move him. - Of course.
[Sora] Nice punch.
I told you Hyeonggyu was a boxing champion.
That was nothing, boss.
[♪ ominous music playing]
Babe.
- [Yangsu] What the hell? - [screaming]
[stammers] What the hell?
[exclaims]
[whimpering]
[screaming]
[Yangsu screaming]
Why? Where are you going?
- Mr. Taesan! - Babe!
Something's off about them.
- Over there. - [Sora sobs]
Look at them!
[exclaiming]
Look at their eyes!
- [scoffs] - You'll take them on?
[♪ rock music playing]
[evil spirit 2 exclaims]
[grunting]
[screams]
Oh, what the heck?
Kangji, are there more?
That was all of them, Chief.
[exhales sharply]
Moving forward, I'll be at your service.
- Don't be. - Bow. What?
I know a lot of boys who could take out a loan.
I like the sound of that,
but stay inside for now.
- What? - Let's hurry.
- Sure, Chief. - Absolutely, boss.
- Thank you, boss. - Have a good one.
- Bow. - Got it.

Kangji, are you sure they're here?
Yes, I'm sure. The pendant is responding to the energy,
and I could never forget Ogwi's scent.
[sighs] He's around here.
[wings flapping]
[all grunt]
[sighs]
Bastard.
Where's Mirr?
[gulps]
She's in danger.
Samin took her.
He likely left for the Hellmouth,
and with Mirr's soul, he'll obtain real power.
You're the only ones who can reseal
the Hellmouth.
I have a favor to ask.
Please stall some time so I can recover.
I'll take care of the rest.

Hanu?

Our brothers and sisters...
Chief, how...
Guys? [gasps]
This isn't right. How were they brought back to life?
They appear to be under Samin's control.
Summon your weapons.
But Chief, they're our siblings.
We need to stop them for now.
I need to take care of Samin first.
Hold them off.
- Still... - [Kangji gasps]
Still, how could we...
You heard Chief.
Hold them off for now.
