TVTranscript
00:00A girl was cursed. Anyone who got close to her had an accident and died mysteriously.
00:05Over time, the title of witch became associated with her, and everyone kept their distance.
00:10Dong Jin is a genius data mining expert with a sharp eye for observation.
00:15With just a glance, he can accurately guess the age, assets, and even the frequency of the other
00:20person's casino visits. Amidst the chaotic world of the casino, he quickly chose a target,
00:25a man in a plain shirt who didn't frequent the casino often.
00:28This man was gradually losing all his money, but instead of stopping, he played more and more
00:34recklessly. Dong Jin calmly ordered the staff to remind him, offering free rooms and food so he
00:39could rest and regain his senses. Normally, the casino just wants to drain every last penny from
00:44the gamblers, but Dong Jin thought differently. He believed that if customers lost everything in
00:49one go, they would never come back. Conversely, if managed properly, customers would visit more often,
00:54resulting in greater profits. The casino owner, after hearing Dong Jin's argument, agreed.
01:00His partner concurred, saying this was a unique approach. Impressed with Dong Jin's talent,
01:05the casino owner expressed his intention to invest. Just then, he noticed the man Dong Jin had just
01:11advised was selling his car for money to continue gambling. The owner sighed and lamented that greed is
01:16a bottomless pit and people are always unpredictable. No matter how skilled you are, you can't understand the
01:22human mind based solely on data. Before leaving, he gave Dong Jin a business card, inviting him to
01:28dinner to discuss things further. As he prepared to go home, Dong Jin discovered that his car's
01:33windshield had been smashed. He immediately called the police. Surveillance cameras showed the suspect,
01:39acting only after confirming the license plate number. This proved he had a grudge against Dong Jin.
01:44But he thought and thought and couldn't remember having offended anyone. Nor did he know who the person in
01:48the video was. Unable to use his car, Dong Jin had to take the train home. As soon as he sat down, he heard
01:54someone call out a familiar name, Mi Jong, and looked in the direction of the voice. He saw a drunk man
02:00harassing a girl, forcing her to go on a date with him. The man kept pressuring her, wanting her to give him a
02:05reasonable excuse to refuse. A group of students nearby were filming the scene on their phones. When the girl
02:11turned her face, Dong Jin froze. Because before his eyes was Mi Jong, the girl in the depths of his memory,
02:16memories flooded back. In high school, while playing ball on the court, Dong Jin accidentally
02:22saw Mi Jong sitting alone eating lunch. She wore her hair short and neat, her face without makeup but
02:28still radiant, exuding an appeal that made others want to approach. From then on, his eyes always
02:33followed her. But at that time, many rumors were circulating about Mi Jong in the school, making
02:39her lonely all the time. One rainy day, she forgot her umbrella. A male student named Jong Won said he was
02:45going the same way, so he held the umbrella over her. When they got close to her house, the two
02:50separated. Jong Won left the umbrella from Mi Jong and ran into the rain. Mi Jong had only taken a few
02:56steps when a violent clap of thunder sounded behind her. Jong Won had passed away in the rain that day.
03:01The car carrying his coffin drove three times around the sports field. The students whispered to each
03:06other. No one could remember how many accidents had happened in the school. When they returned to class,
03:11everyone avoided Mi Jong, secretly drawing a clear line with her. Dong Jin, who was still secretly
03:17watching her, saw her face full of tears. The students whispered that all the accidents in the
03:21school were related to Mi Jong. A senior who had been stung by hornets and then died, Mi Jong was also
03:27present at the time. Rumors spread that anyone related to Mi Jong was cursed and would eventually meet
03:33with misfortune. So, they called her a witch behind her back. Dong Jin spoke up in her defense, arguing that
03:39you can't judge a person based solely on rumors. Whether Mi Jong was present at the scene or not,
03:44or whether the accident occurred near her house, couldn't prove she was involved. Not long after,
03:50the school organized a picnic, and Dong Jin was assigned to take photos. Through the lens,
03:55he saw Mi Jong sitting alone reading a book. He used his last film to secretly photograph her.
04:00While reviewing the photos, he saw a male student in the same class as Mi Jong slip and fall,
04:06breaking his leg. The teacher hurriedly carried him to the emergency room. Dong Jin saw Mi Jong jump up
04:12in fear, her whole body trembling, as if she was being controlled by fear. After the picnic,
04:17Dong Jin excitedly checked the photo he had taken of Mi Jong, analyzing her expression, which seemed very
04:23bad. The next day, the injured male student came to school on crutches. As he passed Mi Jong,
04:29he looked at her meaningfully and reminded everyone to be careful of her. Unlike the other students,
04:34Dong Jin saw that the bench where Mi Jong often sat was directly exposed to the sun. So he asked his
04:40mother, who owned a store, to donate a sunshade to the school. When he saw Mai Jong sitting comfortably
04:45in the shade, he felt happy, as if the sunshade was a connection between him and her. But, strangely
04:51enough, in the 12th grade, a male student in Dong Jin's class unexpectedly passed away. Friends talked
04:58about the accident happening near a pharmacy. Someone saw him talking to Mai Jong earlier. At the time,
05:03he was trying to prove that Jong Won's death by lightning strike was just random and not related
05:08to Mi Jong. But before he could finish, Mi Jong interrupted, quickly left, and told him not to
05:14come near her. He was unwilling to give up and pushed his bicycle after her. But when Mi Jong didn't react,
05:20he had to ride away. Unexpectedly, after only going a few meters, he was electrocuted by a falling power
05:26line and died. Many people talked about Mai Jong's witch curse. The bench she often sat on was covered in
05:32salts. Sinking into malicious rumors, on a snowy day, Mi Jong turned her head to look at the school
05:37one last time, and left without looking back. At that time, Dong Jin was in class, watching her back,
05:44waiting for the bell to ring so he could gather his courage to approach her. He wanted to say the
05:48words he had kept in his heart for so long. Hello, I'm Dong Jin. Unfortunately, after leaving the school,
05:55Mi Jong never returned. And Dong Jin's youthful feelings forever became a regret. Many years later,
06:00when Dong Jin and Mi Jong met again, he believed it was fate. He quietly followed her down to the subway
06:06and trailed her to a residential area. He saw her feeding stray cats and even heard her whispering
06:11to them. Standing behind her, he suddenly felt that this was like a predetermined arrangement,
06:16that no matter how far apart, people with a connection will always find each other.
06:20The next day, Dong Jin searched for videos of the harassment on the subway and, sure enough,
06:25found that a group of students had posted the video. In particular, the video had a sequel after
06:31Mi Jong got off the train. The man who harassed her tried to chase after her, but suddenly clutched
06:36his chest and collapsed. Dong Jin arranged to meet a friend who was a police officer, Kim,
06:42to discuss the strange phenomena. He hypothesized that some people only need to watch a game for
06:46their team to lose. Or when they line up to buy something, it's sold out by the time they reach
06:51the front. Or when they use machinery, it breaks down. Officer Kim said it was all just coincidence,
06:57but Dong Jin didn't think so. He thought to himself, if someone is bound by a strange law of
07:02death, then just by finding that rule, maybe we can break the curse and save that person from bad luck.
07:08In the past, Mi Jong had also been a cheerful and lively girl with a bright smile. But fate was too cruel
07:14to her. Strange events always followed her. When she was young, a mischievous boy cut Mi Jong's jump rope,
07:20but the next second he fell into a drain and was seriously injured. A boy fell in love with her
07:25and gave her flowers, but then had an accident. At that time, Mi Jong naively thought that it was
07:30all just coincidence and didn't think deeply. But when she got to high school, the senior she had a
07:36crush on got into a university in Seoul. The senior happily gave her a notebook and confessed that he
07:42would wait for her at the university. But the next second, he suddenly fell to the ground,
07:47foaming at the mouth, and his whole body convulsed. Based on his judgment, Mi Jong realized that the
07:53senior had been stung by a bee. After he recovered, he left the village and went to Seoul to enroll,
07:58and never saw her again. At the same time, rumors began to spread in class that it was because she
08:04talked to him that the senior had an accident. A male student named Jong Won spoke out against the
08:09baseless rumors and even gave her a box of milk to comfort her on her birthday. She was looking forward to a
08:15special gift from her father. But he only gave her some money and hoped she could invite her friends
08:20out to eat and make more friends. Not wanting to worry her father, Mi Jong lied and said she had
08:26friends. But fate's irony didn't stop there. That day, all 12 male students in the class suffered from
08:32food poisoning. Only the female students were fine. The group of girls led by Don continued to blame her.
08:38Not only the food poisoning, but accidents in the school continued to happen, and most of the victims
08:43were male students. One rainy day, Jong Won kindly sheltered Mi Jong with his umbrella as they
08:49walked home. Before leaving, he gathered his courage to confess his feelings for her. But unexpectedly,
08:55two lightning bolts struck, and Jong Won was struck by lightning and died on the spot. Mi Jong was
09:00overwhelmed with remorse. She thought if he hadn't shared the umbrella with her, the tragedy might not
09:05have happened. Since then, she carried the burden of guilt and began to fear contact with other people.
09:10During a school picnic, a male student offered her a bottle of water and intended to confess his
09:15feelings. But, before he could finish his sentence, Mi Jong quickly stood up, stopped him, and left.
09:21Not long after, he was injured and had to be carried to the infirmary by the teacher.
09:26From then on, the misfortunes became increasingly uncontrollable. A male student was cut in the hand
09:31during art class. Another sprained his ankle during physical education. Someone was injured while
09:36playing basketball, and another fell during dance class. The male students who had been in accidents
09:41began to avoid her, and the rumors about her spread throughout the school. Da Yoon even revealed that
09:47Mi Jong's mother had died, giving birth to her, and called her a witch-spreading disaster. A male student
09:53from another class named Sang Ho could not stand the injustice that everyone was inflicting on Mi Jong.
09:59He spoke up in her defense, asserting that it was all just coincidence, but Mi Jong didn't pay any
10:04attention to him. Sang Ho had no choice but to leave on his bicycle. But tragedy struck again.
10:09He was hit by a falling power line and died on the spot. This news further solidified the title of
10:14witch that everyone attached to Mi Jong. The whole school began to talk, warning each other that anyone
10:21who got close to her was in danger of their lives. With no place in the school, she decided to drop out
10:26and lock herself in her room. Her father could not accept the fact that his daughter, a model student,
10:31would drop out so inexplicably. He went to the school to ask Da Eun about the truth. When he heard
10:36the whole story, he painfully realized how much injustice his daughter had endured. Leaving the
10:41school, her father ran into Dong Jin. He didn't believe in the baseless rumors and was trying to
10:47erase the slandering words written about Mi Jong on the bench in the schoolyard. Seeing Dong Jin
10:52steadfastly standing by his daughter's side, Mi Jong's father was moved to tears, hoping that one day
10:57he could prove her innocence. Mi Jong continued to lock herself in her house, hoping that everyone
11:03would forget about her. But the rumors continued to spread, and her father angrily went to the
11:07neighbors to argue. He threatened not to let those who spread false information get away with it.
11:12But as soon as he left, the gossips continued to talk. Arriving home, the father saw his daughter
11:17feeding stray cats and asked him to buy cat food. Not wanting to spoil his daughter's mood,
11:22he went to Dong Jin's family's grocery store to buy some, but the store only sold fertilizer and
11:27pesticides. Dong Jin's mother felt sorry for him and gave him the cat food that her son had bought.
11:33Not long after, the 12th grade students graduated. Da Eun quietly left a bouquet of flowers and an album
11:39in front of Mi Jong's house. Dong Jin also wanted to give her flowers, but as soon as he approached,
11:44she suddenly opened the door. He panicked and quickly ran away. Her father advised her to continue
11:50her studies, saying that if she passed the aptitude test, she could still get into college. He planned
11:56to sell the land and house after the potato harvest and take her to Seoul to escape the gossip.
12:01Thanks to her father's encouragement, Mi Jong regained hope and began to study hard. But on the
12:05day of the potato harvest, tragedy struck again. While working, she was bitten on the ankle by a
12:11venomous snake and fainted. When she woke up, she saw her father collapsed on the ground, barely breathing.
12:17It turned out that he had sucked the venom from her wound, but he had been poisoned himself.
12:22She screamed in pain and cried for help. But her father stopped her, fearing that if anyone found
12:27out, she would be accused of killing her father. Knowing that he didn't have much time left,
12:32he begged her to run away quickly. But the neighbors had heard her cries and rushed over.
12:37Her father passed away in her arms. From then on, Mi Jong became an orphan, cursed by everyone as a witch
12:43who killed even her own father. With nowhere else to go, she left the sorrowful village like a fugitive.
12:49Since then, to completely clear Mi Jong of the false accusation of being a witch who harms people,
12:55Dong Jin firmly chose to major in statistics when he started college. In this new college environment,
13:00he met Jung Hyuk, who had a similar background to Mi Jong. Jung Hyuk was also an outsider, lost in the crowd.
13:07Overhearing his classmates gossiping about Jung Hyuk, Dong Jin took the initiative to approach him.
13:12Wanting to make up for his past regret of not standing up for Mi Jong when she was isolated.
13:17At first, Jung Hyuk was cold to him. But Dong Jin didn't give up, looking for every opportunity to
13:23talk to him. Just like that, Dong Jin's persistence and sincerity finally moved Jung Hyuk, and the two
13:29became good friends, trusting each other. Summer vacation arrived, and Dong Jin returned to the
13:35village full of memories. He flipped through his middle school photos, his eyes stopping on a picture
13:40of Mi Jong from back then. His mother came into the room, reminding him that the son of the laundromat
13:45owner nearby had to be hospitalized recently. And his mother was sad, so if he saw them,
13:51he should be careful with his words. Dong Jin knew that the laundromat owner's son was practicing
13:55martial arts and was in good shape, so he asked for more details. His mother said that rumors were still
14:01spreading in the village, and at school, that Mi Jong was a witch. Out of sympathy, the laundromat owner's
14:07son went to comfort Mi Jong, and on his way home, he was hit by a wild boar and injured. With such a
14:13rare thing happening, people became even more convinced that Mi Jong was a witch who brought
14:18bad luck. Dong Jin got angry, and used statistical data to tell his mother that every minute of every
14:24day, people die. People are bound to get injured or die. You can't just link these things to Mi Jong.
14:29After that, he brought some things to Mi Jong's house. But there was a,
14:33for sale. Sign posted on Mi Jong's door. And the inside was already empty. Dong Jin was filled with
14:39regret. He took out the analysis report that he himself had investigated and written,
14:44wanting to prove that Mi Jong was not a witch. But unfortunately, he was one step too late.
14:49A gust of wind blew the report to the ground. Dong Jin's tears started flowing. He regretted not being
14:55able to do anything for Mi Jong in time. And even more, he regretted the unrequited love that he
15:00couldn't confess. Later, his professor found out the reason why Dong Jin worked so hard to study
15:05statistics. And he praised his kindness and persistence. But at the same time, the professor
15:11also sternly pointed out serious flaws in the report. Because Dong Jin had already decided in
15:16his heart that Mi Jong was innocent. When collecting and analyzing the data, he unconsciously leaned
15:21toward supporting his own view, lacking objectivity and fairness. The professor gave Dong Jin a detailed
15:27checklist, hoping he could verify again according to the questions on the list. Dong Jin accepted the
15:32professor's feedback, ruling out random and inevitable cases, and finally focused on one key
15:37issue. What was the common factor in these accidents? He recalled all the accidents that
15:42happened at school, excluding the possibility of randomness and inevitability. The common factor of
15:48the accidents was only one, that they were all related to Mi Jong. This investigation refuted his
15:53previous analysis report, which had concluded that Mi Jong was not a witch. He cried helplessly in the
15:59rain, hating himself for not being able to find solid evidence to prove Mi Jong's innocence.
16:03After graduating from college, Young Hayok became a criminal investigator, and Dong Jin became a data
16:09mining specialist. Life seemed peaceful, but a phone call broke that piece. His mother was sick.
16:15Dong Jin rushed his mother to a large hospital in Seoul, but his mother was seriously ill. And there was no
16:21cure. His mother knew she didn't have much time left. And although she was filled with longing for her
16:26son, she calmly expressed her wishes. She hoped that at her funeral, there would be a beautiful flower
16:31palanquin, so that she could be reunited with her late husband in a dignified way. And she also told
16:37Dong Jin to sell the pesticide shop and the house. While handling the sale of the pesticide shop, Dong Jin
16:43accidentally learned that his mother had bought Mi Jong's house a few years earlier. Back in the hospital room,
16:48he expressed his gratitude to his mother, thinking that she had helped Mi Jong out of kindness.
16:53However, his mother revealed a secret she had kept for many years. It turned out that, that year,
16:59Mi Jong was chased away by his mother and the villagers. His mother had found Mi Jong's picture in Dong
17:04Jin's desk, fearing that her son would suffer misfortune by associating with Mi Jong. So she made the wrong
17:10decision under the instigation of the rumors. But when she saw Mi Jong alone and miserable, waiting for the
17:15bus to leave, and learned that she had nowhere to go, his mother's heart softened. She not only drove
17:21her to the bus station, but also bought her house, hoping to help her financially. His mother always
17:26felt guilty about her actions, wanting to apologize to Mi Jong directly, but never having the chance.
17:32His mother also remembered the scene of Dong Jin, firmly saying that Mi Jong was not a witch back then.
17:38She begged Dong Jin, if he ever had the chance to see Mi Jong again, to definitely convey her apology.
17:43Dong Jin followed his mother's dying wish, organizing a funeral with a flower palanquin for her.
17:49While sorting through his mother's belongings, he found the book he had intended to give Mi Jong years
17:54ago, and the unfinished statistical reports. That year, after he threw these things away at
17:59Mi Jong's house, his mother had quietly picked them up and read them carefully. His mother didn't
18:03understand those complicated formulas, nor did she know the report was full of flaws, but she believed
18:09Dong Jin's conclusion, Mi Jong was innocent. With that thought, his mother hoped to
18:13one day meet Mi Jong again. To atone for her past mistake. Before she died, his mother said that
18:19people who are meant to be will meet again. Now, he and Mi Jong have met again. He vowed to prove again
18:25that Mi Jong was not a witch. Not to let this regret continue any longer. As for Mi Jong, in order to
18:31avoid bringing so-called bad luck to others, she locked herself in a cramped rented house. Only when it was
18:37late at night and quiet, and everyone was asleep, did she dare to step out of the house. Mi Jong didn't step out
18:43of the door all day, in that small rented house. She couldn't tell if she was shutting herself off
18:48from the world, or if the world had long forgotten her. To make a living, she relied on translating
18:53travel programs. In this lonely life, the only person she had contact with was Sister Yoon Sil,
18:59who needed to hand over work. Kind-hearted Sister Yoon Sil cared about Mi Jong's life,
19:04occasionally coming to her house, sharing a meal with her. She excitedly shared about a place she
19:09wanted to go. A small town in Austria that she saw while translating. Dreaming of a day when she
19:14could freely walk the streets like a normal person. On the other hand, Dong Jin, wanting to quickly
19:20clear up the mystery surrounding Mi Jong, ignored his co-workers' pleas to stay, and firmly quit his
19:25job at the company. He went to where Mi Jong lived to rent a place. The ideal location in his mind was
19:30the apartment across from Mi Jong's, because from there, he could observe her every move. Unfortunately,
19:36that apartment was already rented. The real estate agent took Dong Jin to meet the tenant,
19:41trying to convince him to let Dong Jin take a look at the view and location. But no matter what the
19:45agent said, the guy firmly refused. Helpless, Dong Jin had to rent the apartment on the floor below.
19:51But he didn't give up, and started to follow the guy around, frequently showing up at the
19:55convenience store where he worked, trying every way to win him over. Finally, the guy was moved by his
20:00persistence, and agreed to let him tour his apartment. Dong Jin seized this opportunity,
20:05offering to pay 3 months' rent and cover all moving expenses for the guy, asking to swap the
20:10upstairs and downstairs apartments. After thinking it over carefully, the guy finally agreed. Just like
20:16that, Dong Jin got his wish, moving into the apartment across from Mi Jong. That day, Dong Jin
20:22unexpectedly received a call from the police, learning that a man named Yong Ho, who ran a small paper cup
20:28manufacturing plant. However, due to poor business, the factory was facing bankruptcy. To save the
20:34factory, Yong Ho had worked very hard to apply for a loan. But with changes to the bank's regulations,
20:40the loan was ultimately not approved. And the factory declared bankruptcy as a result. In a fit
20:45of anger and despair, Yong Ho went to the bank and caused a disturbance. The bank employee told him
20:50that the loan development system was created by Dong Jin's company, and that Dong Jin's picture was on
20:56the company's homepage. Currently, Yong Ho is on the run, and the police are concerned he might seek
21:01revenge on Dong Jin. So they informed Dong Jin of the situation. As he was leaving after understanding
21:06the situation, Dong Jin specifically asked which department to contact to repair the streetlight.
21:11It turned out, the streetlight at the entrance of the alley was always flickering. He was worried
21:16that this would cause inconvenience and danger for Mi Jong when she went out at night. So he wanted to
21:21quickly find someone to fix it. After getting the answer, he drove home. Unexpectedly, as soon as he got out
21:27of the car, he was attacked. He looked closely, and the person attacking him was the Jung Ho
21:32that the police had just mentioned. Dong Jin understood why the other person resented him.
21:37He didn't fight back, but silently endured until the other person calmed down. Hearing Jung Ho's
21:42stomach growling, Dong Jin took the initiative to invite him to eat and told him about his work,
21:47which was to calculate program values through data, unexpectedly indirectly harming Jung Ho.
21:53Jung Ho complained that the factory's bankruptcy had affected the lives of more than 10 employees.
21:58And he was forced to send his two children to live with relatives. He wandered the streets every
22:02day, and had even had negative thoughts, only relying on his hatred for Dong Jin to keep living.
22:07But in his heart, he knew clearly that the factory's bankruptcy was not related to Dong Jin.
22:12On the contrary, it was his hatred of Dong Jin that gave him the motivation to live.
22:17To help Jung Ho out of his predicament, Dong Jin asked the casino owner to give him a job,
22:22so that he would have a temporary place to stay, and time to think about his future life.
22:26After settling this matter, Dong Jin went to find Jung Hyok to have dinner together.
22:31The two had only walked a few steps. When Jung Hyok suddenly received an emergency call,
22:36he immediately drove off to rescue someone. It turned out that Jung Hyok was handling a break-in.
22:41The doors and windows at the scene showed no signs of being forced open.
22:45The police suspected that the culprit knew the door lock code, and was very likely an acquaintance.
22:50When asking the female victim if she suspected anyone, the woman looked hesitant, as if she
22:55had something difficult to say. Jung Hyok noticed this, stopping his colleague from continuing to
23:00ask, and instead suggested that the woman apply for a protection order. That way, when in danger,
23:05the police or a designated person would arrive immediately. After thinking, the woman designated
23:10Jung Hyok as her protector. Jung Hyok didn't expect things to happen so suddenly. When he rushed to the
23:16scene, the woman had already been taken away in an ambulance. Jung Hyok blamed himself for not
23:21fulfilling his responsibility to protect her. Late at night, Mijang, as usual, went downstairs to feed
23:27the stray cats. She was surprised to see that the flickering streetlight had been repaired.
23:31She said softly to the cat that stray cats had a hard time hiding from people every day,
23:36and only appeared when they saw her. As if she really was the witch that people said.
23:40Dong Jin, hiding behind the wall, heard her words. His heart filled with pain.
23:45Mijang was like a princess imprisoned in a castle, losing control over her life.
23:49Dong Jin vowed that he would definitely find a way, at all cost, to break the curse on Mijang,
23:55so that she could live a normal life. The next day, Dong Jin returned to the village,
24:00where he and Mijang grew up, deciding to start investigating everything about Mijang from there.
24:05He went to the school, the bench Mijang used to sit on was still there. It is covered by scratches,
24:10which are erased by him. He opened the school's records room, wanting to find the key clue to
24:15solve the mystery of Mijang there. As soon as he arrived, he went to see the village elder to get
24:20the keys to his old house. While they were talking, the elder advised him that if he hadn't been back
24:25in a long time, he should just sell the house. Apparently, Mijang's neighborhood was about to be
24:30developed into a resort area, which was causing land prices to skyrocket. Hearing this, Dong Jin suddenly
24:37remembered something, and asked the elder if anything strange had been happening in the village
24:41lately. The elder said that after Mijang left, nothing had happened, except that the laundromat
24:46owner's son, Hyun Gu, got injured by a wild boar. Immediately after that, Dong Jin went to find Hyun Gu to
24:53get the full story. Hyun Gu explained that, after Mijang's dad had his accident, he brought her bread to
24:59comfort her, because he had a secret crush on her for a long time. He was going to confess his feelings,
25:04but he didn't have the courage, so he ended up just leaving. As soon as he stepped out of Mijang's
25:09house, he was attacked by a wild boar and seriously injured. After talking to Hyun Gu, Dong Jin gathered
25:15his old classmates to learn more about what happened back then. During their conversation, they mentioned
25:20a friend named Hong Mo, who was hit by a car just for bringing Mijang some candy. After the accident,
25:26Hong Mo immediately transferred schools and disappeared without a trace. Dong Jin immediately sent one of his
25:32friends to find Hong Mo's current address, and also asked everyone to collect all the data related to
25:37accidents that happened around Mijang. He wanted to know exactly where the curse of Mijang originated
25:43from. Da Eun offered a great idea. Old school records were still stored in the school library.
25:49Luckily, Da Eun was currently a teacher at the school they used to attend, so she easily got Dong Jin
25:55into the document archive. Dong Jin found all of Mijang's tests and records from her years at school.
26:01He took pictures of all the documents, saved them to his computer, and stayed up all night
26:06compiling the data. When he created a statistical chart, he discovered that during the time Mijang
26:11attended school, the number of accidents and deaths at the school spiked dramatically. What was even more
26:17striking was that most of those accidents happened around Mijang. This data further confirmed that there
26:23was a curse surrounding her. But Dong Jin wasn't giving up. He made a list of everyone who had been
26:28injured and decided to visit each one to verify. Soon after, his friend found Hong Mo's address,
26:34and Dong Jin immediately went to see him. Hong Mo said that year, just for giving Mijang some candy.
26:40As soon as he left, he was hit by a car. Dong Jin continued to call people on the list,
26:45to ask them if their accidents were related to Mijang. All the people who had accidents had something in
26:50common. Either they were in the same space as Mijang. They talked to Mijang. They knew her. Or they
26:56confessed their feelings to Mijang. If someone met all those conditions, they could lose their life.
27:01But the absolute requirement for these rules to take effect, was that they had feelings for Mijang.
27:06If they didn't confess, they only got injured. But if they confessed, the risk of death was very high.
27:12Just as he drew this conclusion, Dong Jin was unexpectedly visited by Dayun. She said that she
27:17was the one who spread the rumor that Mijang was a witch. Just because the senior she liked was in
27:22love with Mijang. In a fit of jealousy, she started the rumor. Da wanted to ask Dong Jin to help her
27:28send an apology to Mijang. At the same time, she revealed that this senior and Mijang had a senior
27:34junior relationship at university. So maybe he knew what happened to Mijang when she went to college.
27:39Also, she had found that senior. He said that Mijang hadn't studied long before voluntarily,
27:44withdrawing her enrollment. Then dropped out of school. After that, Dong Jin went to find the ticket
27:50seller at the movie theater. This guy had confessed his feelings to Mijang at the electrical substation
27:55and was also in an accident afterward. After Mijang left, he recounted that Mijang would often visit
28:01the theater late at night when no one else was around. After a few times, he gradually developed
28:06feelings for this mysterious girl and would often chat with her. Eventually, he confessed his feelings
28:12to Mijang. What surprised Dong Jin was that the ticket seller was still alive. While thinking about the
28:17reason why, he happened to see the guy's name tag. He found out that he wasn't using his real name,
28:22but just a nickname. In other words, Mijang only knew his nickname and didn't know his real name.
28:28Immediately, Dong Jin realized a new rule. As long as Mijang knew someone's real name,
28:33that person would be in danger. After that, he went over to the window, carefully measuring the
28:38distance from his house to Mijang's to determine a safe zone. The measurements showed that his place
28:43was about 10 meters away from Mijang's apartment. As soon as he finished measuring, he went to
28:48retract the tape measure, but it unexpectedly got stuck. Just then, Mijang stepped out onto her
28:54balcony to drink coffee. Dong Jin quickly yanked the tape measure back into his apartment. At that
28:59moment, he glanced over at Mijang, a solitary and cold figure on the balcony. It hit him like a ton
29:04of bricks. He had developed feelings for her. In the very next second, the tape measure suddenly
29:09snapped back, leaving a scratch on Dong Jin's neck. He immediately confirmed that anyone within a 10
29:14meter radius of Mijang was in danger. Now Dong Jin understood why he had this wound, because he met
29:20all the prerequisites of the theories he had developed. The next morning, Mijang was busy
29:24again in her small apartment. The landlady came to visit. She was also the aunt of Mijang's close
29:30senior. The aunt skillfully praised Mijang's youthful beauty, saying that she shouldn't lock herself
29:35inside and waste her precious time. Then, the aunt suggested that she go on a blind date
29:40with someone she had arranged to have a sweet romance. Mijang knew she was cursed, but she
29:45couldn't explain it to the aunt, so she just stammered, unsure how to respond. Fortunately,
29:51the senior arrived just in time, skillfully persuading the aunt to leave. The senior was
29:55Mijang's only friend and worked at a TV station. The next day, when she went to work, she heard that
30:01someone was waiting for her at a nearby cafe. The person who was looking for her was Dong Jin.
30:06Before, Dong Jin had investigated all of Mijang's high school classmates and asked a senior to
30:12introduce him to the senior friend. Mijang's only friend for nine years, from university to now.
30:18In front of the senior, Dong Jin clearly stated the reason for finding her. He was investigating the
30:23accidents that happened around Mijang and had created a formula for the jinx. He hoped the senior
30:28could tell him more about Mijang to complete this formula, helping her have a normal life.
30:32Hearing that Dong Jin could help Mijang, the senior immediately told him about her past.
30:37The first time she met Mijang was when recruiting new members for the student council.
30:41At that time, she noticed the girl who always wore black and tried to hide herself.
30:46That mystery only sparked the curiosity of the male students even more.
30:49In the very first semester, a male student had a crush on Mijang. He used the excuse of borrowing
30:54a pen to approach her. Even though she rejected him many times, he persistently asked her to go
30:59see a movie. As a result, in the very next second, he slipped and tumbled down the stairs.
31:05Despite his injured leg, he still attended the student council meeting.
31:08When they learned that he had the accident because of Mijang, his classmates started gossiping about
31:13the rumors surrounding her. People said that Mijang seemed to have a dark aura that she was born with,
31:19attracting quite a few male students. Even the English professor had feelings for her.
31:23The strange thing was, any male student who liked Mijang, just by getting close to her,
31:28would constantly have accidents. Then, an event solidified the rumor that Mijang was a cursed
31:33witch. That day was the final exam for English class. When she handed in her paper, Mijang was
31:39about to leave when the professor called her back. He wrote, I love you, on a piece of paper.
31:44Mijang was terrified and ran away, worried that something would happen to the professor.
31:48So she called for an ambulance preemptively. But the operators thought she was making a prank call.
31:54Mijang had no choice but to stay away from him. Right at that moment, the senior asked her to go
31:59eat. As the two were about to leave, the senior saw the professor looking at Mijang from the window.
32:04Immediately after that, a brick on the windowsill came loose, and he fell from the upper floor.
32:09After that accident, Mijang couldn't take it anymore, and voluntarily withdrew from school.
32:14Some time later, the senior went to find where she was living, a remote village in the mountains
32:19that was about to be demolished. The villagers had all left, leaving Mijang living alone.
32:25The senior, feeling sorry for her, asked why she had dropped out of school. Mijang coldly cut her
32:30off, saying that she didn't need her pity. The senior knew that she wasn't pitying Mijang,
32:35but she didn't know why she always remembered her, as if it were love at first sight,
32:39and she wanted to get closer to her. Because Mijang was like a porcupine with its quills raised,
32:44the senior had no choice but to leave her phone number and leave. A few months later,
32:48the senior received a call from Mijang. Her house had been ransacked by thieves,
32:52so she wanted to stay at the senior's house temporarily. The senior scolded her for living
32:57in that place. But Mijang said that it was the only way she could live alone. The senior
33:01heartbreakingly hugged the kind-hearted, but always unfortunate girl. The next day,
33:06the senior took Mijang to rent an apartment from her aunt, helping her bargain like a sister would,
33:10making Mijang smile for the first time. Back in the present, the senior led Dongjin to the place
33:16where the professor had the accident. Dongjin measured the distance between Mijang and the
33:20professor at the time of the accident, confirming that it was within the 10-meter radius. The two
33:25knew each other, and the professor had confessed his feelings to her, perfectly matching the formula
33:30he had hypothesized. After that, the senior introduced Dongjin to two male students, who had had
33:37accidents because of Mijang. Both of them recounted that after being in the same space as Mijang
33:42for about 10 minutes, they immediately had something happen to them. This further confirmed
33:46that Dongjin's formula was accurate. To avoid repeating the same incidents, he decided to test
33:51it himself. The senior realized at this moment that Dongjin also liked Mijang. To help him,
33:57she revealed that every Tuesday, a nearby supermarket would deliver essential supplies to Mijang's house.
34:03Dongjin went to the supermarket and applied to be a delivery worker.
34:06The owner sees his impressive resume and figures he's got his reasons for wanting the gig.
34:11So she agrees to let him work one extra day a week. Soon after, Dongjin stood in front of Mijang's
34:16house, using the excuse that he needed a signature on the receipt to get her to open the door.
34:21At this moment, the distance between them was within 10 meters. If he stayed for more than 10 minutes,
34:27he would be able to verify the accuracy of the formula. A beautiful girl is haunted by a curse.
34:31Anytime the person she likes gets within 30 feet of her, an accident happens. But the guy doesn't give
34:38up. To break her curse, he's willing to risk his life to get close to her. Before this, Dongjin had
34:43watched and made notes about Mijang's life. She usually does translation work in the afternoon.
34:49When she's tired, she goes to the coffee table to drink coffee, eat instant noodles, or simple food.
34:54She's home until 2 a.m., and only when it's deserted can she sneak out to feed stray cats.
35:00In her simple life, Mijang's rare pleasure was to take a random bus each month, ride it to the last
35:05stop, and then return. This was considered her little trip. Every week, she ordered necessities
35:11from a nearby supermarket through a delivery service. To test his theory, Dongjin got a part-time job at the
35:17supermarket. Waiting until Tuesday, he brought the box of goods to her house. He rang the doorbell and
35:22started his stopwatch at the same time. As she got closer, Dongjin's heart raced. To buy more time,
35:29he helped her check each item, and then asked her to sign the receipt. Rarely having a chance to talk
35:33to others, Mijang kept thanking him before he left, which made Dongjin feel incredibly sad. Stepping out
35:40the door, he realized it hadn't even been 10 minutes, and nothing had happened. In the following days,
35:45he secretly came to Mijang's house to time it, leaving each time it reached 10 minutes. And still no
35:51accidents occurred. Finally, he decided to try staying longer than 10 minutes. And sure enough,
35:57an accident happened. He sprained his ankle when he left. The next Tuesday, Dongjin delivered again.
36:02Because he wanted to talk to Mijang longer, he intentionally let her check each item,
36:07occasionally glancing at her, almost forgetting the time. When it was almost 10 minutes,
36:12Mijang offered to pay with a card, but he hadn't brought the card reader. So she had to go back
36:17inside to get cash. After getting the money, Dongjin rushed down the stairs. Just as he was
36:22breathing a sigh of relief, a motorcycle sped by, almost causing an accident. Dongjin was scared out
36:28of his wits, thinking he had escaped disaster this time. But unexpectedly, a billboard above suddenly
36:33fell, injuring his hand. He started to suspect that maybe the number of lines they spoke to each other
36:39was also limited. The following Tuesday, Mijang brought a bottle of water, excitedly going out to
36:45meet Dongjin. But she saw that the delivery person had been changed to a different man.
36:50Mijang was disappointed, and silently carried the box into her house. To protect himself,
36:55Dongjin went to a motorcycle gear store, and spent a lot of money buying a full protective suit,
37:00and a full face helmet. When he appeared in front of Mijang, she smiled brightly,
37:04happily checking the goods with him. Without realizing it, she had started to enjoy talking with him.
37:09Dongjin looked at Mai Jing with affection, while secretly counting the number of exchanges.
37:14As he was leaving, Mijang saw his bandaged hand, and sadly asked if he had been injured after coming
37:20here. Not wanting to see her upset, Dongjin lied, and said he got hurt while exercising. Because of
37:25this, he forgot to count the number of lines spoken. But just seeing Mai Jing relieved, he felt satisfied.
37:32Even though it hadn't been 10 minutes, an accident happened again. Dongjin fell off his bike on the side
37:37of the road. This time, he confirmed that as long as he talked to Mijang for more than 10 lines,
37:43an accident would occur. An older female colleague came to the hospital to visit Dongjin. She didn't
37:49understand why he was so stubbornly trying to break Mijang's curse. She advised him to stop while he
37:54could. Because sooner or later, Mai Jing would find out his name. And then he would definitely be in
37:59mortal danger. But Dongjin had no intention of giving up. He liked Mijang and felt sorry for the kind
38:04girl haunted by the curse. A month later, Dongjin recovered. Today was the day Mijang took her rare
38:11bus trip. He decided to secretly follow her, wanting to see the scenery along the way with her. To avoid
38:16danger, he deliberately sat in the last row, keeping a distance of more than 10 meters. Throughout the
38:22journey, he silently watched Mai Jing from behind. But when they reached the last stop, Dongjin still felt
38:28it wasn't enough. Secretly wishing he could extend the time. Wishing the bus would get stuck. That would be
38:33great. Unexpectedly, as soon as he thought that, they encountered a serious traffic jam on the way
38:39back. Dongjin was still rejoicing. But in the very next second, he was shocked. Mijang gave up her seat
38:45to an old woman and moved to the back to stand. The distance between them was now only 5 meters.
38:50He hastily noted the time, just hoping to reach the next stop to get off immediately. But the bus was
38:55stuck on a bridge, and time kept passing. He looked up at the sky. A strange flash of lightning appeared.
39:01Beside them, the sharp iron rods on the truck in front seemed about to fall. His sense of danger
39:06grew stronger and stronger. He decided to act first. Rushing out of the bus, the strong wind
39:12accidentally blew his hat off. Mijang saw his face and unconsciously uttered, Dongjin. At that moment,
39:18Dongjin looked towards Mijang. The distance was under 10 meters, the time had exceeded 10 minutes,
39:24and most importantly, she knew his name. He had broken too many rules, but luckily he had prepared.
39:30He remembered that there had never been any record of lightning striking the Han River.
39:34So, with faith in science and statistics, he jumped straight into the river from the bridge.
39:39He had risked jumping off the bridge to avoid the accident. Mijang had recognized him. In high
39:44school, Dongjin always accidentally or intentionally looked at Mijang. Gradually, Mijang also noticed this
39:50boy. Through the name tag on his uniform, she learned Dongjin's name. After graduation, Dongjin went to
39:57Mijang's house and secretly gave her the school yearbook. Mijang recognized Dongjin, went home,
40:03opened the yearbook, and found his picture. Seeing his face clearly for the first time,
40:0810 years later, Mijang met Dongjin again, but could only watch helplessly as he jumped off the bridge.
40:14Luckily, the ambulance arrived in time, and Dongjin was taken to the hospital. Mijang guessed that
40:19Dongjin might have jumped because of her. She frantically searched for news about the incident online,
40:24and only when she saw the news that Dongjin was safe and sound, did she breathe a sigh of relief.
40:30After escaping death and waking up, Dongjin immediately contacted his older female colleague.
40:35He had verified some of the rules himself, and now he only needed her help with one last thing.
40:40He realized that anyone who had liked Mijang had met with an accident. But what about the opposite,
40:45the person Mijang liked? The older colleague agreed to help. The next day, she drove Mijang on a trip.
40:51After the two of them set up the tent, the older colleague secretly turned on her phone,
40:56connecting the call with Dongjin, and then asked Mijang if she had ever liked anyone.
41:00She thought for a moment, and then talked about her first love, an older male student who had been
41:06accepted into Korea National University. He was someone she had known since childhood.
41:10She went to church every week, actually, just to see him. Until one time, she saw him buying
41:16epilepsy medication at the pharmacy. The older student seemed afraid that she would discover
41:20his secret, so the two of them gradually talked less. When they graduated, he gave her a notebook
41:26of class notes. But right after that, he was stung by a wasp, fainted, and had to be carried away by
41:32friends. The next time they met, Mijang had been accepted into Korea University. The older student
41:37came to congratulate her. She took the opportunity to thank him for the notebook. But at that time,
41:42he had forgotten about the notebook. At that moment, Mijang also let go of her feelings for him.
41:47After listening, the older colleague analyzed the preconditions of the curse, realizing that the
41:52older student had violated all the rules, but ended up being fine. Dongjin heard this, and rushed home,
41:59flipping through the notebook the older student had given Mijang, and discovered the content on the
42:03last page. The next day, Dongjin sought out the older student to confirm something. Clearly,
42:08wasps would be in a state of hibernation in the winter. So why did he lie that year? The older
42:13student frankly admitted that he had actually fainted due to epilepsy that year. It was Mijang
42:18who lied that he was stung by a wasp to help him hide his illness. He also didn't correct it,
42:23and even blamed Mijang for being nosy. Dongjin saw the older student's hypocritical face,
42:29and felt indignant for Mijang. It was because of this that she was labeled a witch,
42:33and suffered all kinds of torment. After entering university, the older student even
42:38intentionally spread rumors about Mijang, saying that she was a witch. To confirm the last thing,
42:44Dongjin took out the notebook, with the last page containing the older student's confession of love,
42:49and asked him if he had ever liked Mijang. The older student nodded, admitting that he had
42:54indeed liked Mijang that year. After hearing this, Dongjin angrily cursed the unfairness of the heavens.
42:59He himself had fallen into a miserable state, just for wanting to say a few words to Mijang.
43:05Yet this older student had broken all the rules, but remained unharmed. Angrily returning home,
43:10staring at the wall where he had organized the rules he had compiled over time.
43:14Dongjin thought for a whole day. Finally, he wrote the words,
43:18Mijang likes Dongjin, on his photo, and pasted it right next to Mijang's photo.
43:23He realized that the only variable was Mijang's feelings. Only the person she loved could escape the
43:28curse. And he decided to bet everything on this variable, making Mijang like him. For this goal,
43:34during the following period, Dongjin frantically trained his body. Finally, packing his luggage,
43:40standing in front of Mijang's door, he rang the doorbell, pretending to be a delivery person to
43:45trick Mijang into opening the door. At this time, Mijang realized that Dongjin had always pretended to be
43:51a delivery person to see her. This time, Dongjin stood in front of Mijang, and expressed his feelings.
43:58He had a sentence he wanted to say, even if he had to bet his life. But he decided to find another
44:03opportunity to tell her. Afterward, he comforted Mijang that being cursed wasn't her fault,
44:08hoping she could be brave and do what she wanted. After saying this, he placed the gift that a high
44:13school classmate had sent to Mijang on the ground, and turned to leave. Mijang was moved by Dongjin's
44:18words, tears streaming down her cheeks. This time, Dongjin had broken the rule of speaking more
44:24than 10 sentences to her. He pulled his suitcase down the street, carefully avoiding accidents that
44:28could happen at any moment. Suddenly, a truck sped straight towards him. Mijang opened the USB drive
44:34that Dongjin had given her. Inside were pictures of Mijang's hometown. Dongjin had gone to her hometown
44:40to take these pictures especially for her. Besides the pictures, there was also a video. In the video,
44:45Dan apologized to Mijang. Years before, it had been Dayun who had spread the rumor that Mijang was a
44:52witch, which was why Mijang had been isolated by everyone and forced to leave her hometown.
44:57After many years, Mijang finally heard an apology from the person who had caused everything,
45:02and she couldn't hold back her tears. Right then, Mijang didn't know that Dongjin had disappeared.
45:08Before that, Unsil, worried about Dongjin's safety, had called him, but no one had answered.
45:13So, she had gone to Junghyak, Dongjin's close friend, who was a police officer,
45:19to investigate his whereabouts. Junghyak took Unsil to the house. Dongjin had rented,
45:25and they found that besides his clothes and daily necessities, Dongjin hadn't taken anything else with
45:29him. Junghyak opened Dongjin's computer to check, and he discovered that recently, Dongjin had been
45:35investigating Mijang's curse, and, based on the experimental results, had summarized the pattern
45:41of the curse. When he saw the last line, the only variable of the curse is Mijang's heart.
45:46Junghyak understood Dongjin's thinking. He went to see Mijang, and gave her the analysis report that
45:52Dongjin had written years ago. Mijang looked over the data, proving she wasn't a witch.
45:57Remembered how Dongjin had run around investigating for her 10 years before,
46:01and her heart was filled with emotion. Junghyak took Mijang to Dongjin's room,
46:06opened the documents Dongjin had left behind, and told her that Dongjin actually hadn't cared
46:11whether she was a witch or not. All those years, he had worked hard investigating, just to find a way
46:16to love Mijang. After saying this, he gave Mijang time to learn about Dongjin, and told her Dongjin's
46:22whereabouts that he had investigated. Not long after, Mijang went to Austria, the place she had always
46:28wanted to visit. There, she met Dongjin. Mijang thanked him for everything he had done for her.
46:33If it hadn't been for Dongjin, she wouldn't have been able to escape her closed-off world.
46:38Dongjin looked at Mijang, and sincerely confessed, I loved you. The next second,
46:43the sky became gloomy, and thunder and lightning started. He stood up to leave. This time,
46:49he wanted to confirm the final variable. Mijang called him back, and told Dongjin that during that
46:54trip, she had constantly thought of him, worried about his safety. She had studied his data,
46:59and had discovered the pattern that he hadn't found yet. All the people who loved her, as long
47:04as they were by her side, would be safe and sound. Mijang told Dongjin not to leave her, because she
47:09loved him too. As soon as she finished speaking, the dark clouds in the sky disappeared. The two
47:15embraced tightly. Mijang couldn't hold back her tears. Finally, she could walk hand in hand with
47:19the person she loved, towards a happy future.
