Episode 1.
I can see the shadow of death. – Kang Ha Ram
You've become the captain of a ship that will sink soon.
Why do you always cover your eyes? They're beautiful. – Kim Joon
My eyes are cursed. People are right: I am a cursed monster. – Kang Ha Ram
You're not a cursed monster. What you have is a gift, not a curse. The fact that you can foresee someone's death is really a cool thing because that means you can save people's lives. – Han Moo Gang
You should prove it yourself that what you have is actually a gift and not a curse. Stop running away like a fool. – Han Moo Gang
If anyone had believed me back then and offered to help me out, I might have been able to save you. – Kang Ha Ram
Episode 2.
Don't forget. Don't ever make eye contact with a human who's in love. If you do, a horrible tragedy will happen to you.
They say your heart recognizes the one you're meant to be with. – Han Moo Gang
Episode 3.
My job is collecting humans' souls. Humans call us the Grim Reapers. We are divided into two categories: the pure descent of the upper world who were born as Grim Reapers and these idiotic, pathetic ones who used to be humans. They're here because they committed suicide. They took their own lives. Working as grim reapers is a punishment they must carry out. The lives they gave up thoughtlessly can be so precious to other humans. He wants them to learn the lesson on their own. The ones who committed suicide still have their bodies and memories intact, that's why they get themselves in trouble at times while on duty. For instance, they let the soul that they have to collect, run away. Or they hide in human bodies because they want to live again. – Grim Reaper No. 444
I'd also be sick of me if I were him. – Kang Ha Ram
Stay right by my side at all times like glue. From this moment on, I need you to be my eyes. – Black
Episode 4.
We can see each other, but humans cannot see us. And just as humans cannot see us standing right next to them, they do not realize death is always there in their lives. – Grim Reaper No. 444
Remember death. We're always by your side. – Grim Reaper No. 444
Do you know how it feels to be left all alone in this vast world? – Kang Ha Ram
Do you know what's the meanest thing in the world? It's to cheat on someone. – Oh Man Soo
Episode 5.
You may have lost your memory, but you're still the same. You always did the right thing. – Kang Ha Ram
You must know how to protect yourself. Try to look strong at all times. – Kim Joon
That woman will never be able to save anyone's life. I won't allow it. Never. – Black
Episode 6.
Try to hang in there. You may be lonely and exhausted right now, but I'm sure someone will be there to take your side one day. I'm on your side, too. – Kang Ha Ram
It's easy to miss what's right in front of you. – Chen
Don't try too hard to regain your memory. That's probably better for your sake. – Yoon Soo Wan
Episode 7.
Back then, I was too young. I should've held on to you more tightly. – Kang Ha Ram
I'm 444, the best there is in business. – Black
We call those who have lost their spouses by death as widow or widower, and kids who have lost their parents as orphans. But do you know what parents who lose their children are called? There's no such word. It's so cruel that there's no word for it. – Park Soon Nam
Episode 8.
Collecting souls of kids who were full of dreams about their future obviously couldn't have been easy. – Grim Reaper No. 007
Die hard. Never die.
I decided that I would never die. I decided to survive no matter what happens. – Kang Ha Ram
Why do I keep worrying about whether a petty human dies or not? – Black
If you do not fill your mind, it will be empty with worries. – Grim Reaper No. 007
Humans must die according to their predetermined destiny. – Black
Episode 9.
I have a really bad personality, so I have trouble trusting people. – Na Gwang Gyun
Ha Ram cannot die without my permission. – Black
444 has fallen for a woman.
You were like a support that kept my life going on. – Kang Ha Ram
Episode 10.
Both you and I are in an utter mess now. – Oh Man Soo
We're not allowed to pity humans no matter what. – Grim Reaper No. 007
I wish I had a face too. – Black
I am a dog indeed, but I am a different kind of dog from those filthy animals. – Na Gwang Gyun
You really can't stay still, can you? I'm pretty sure you were a beagle in your past life. – Black
The truth is that we all used to be humans. All of us who believe that they were born as grim reapers used to be humans just like those who took their own lives. We're missing people. We're not in the human form like those who took their own lives because our bodies have gone missing. Our bodies are all deeply buried somewhere. At the very moment a missing body is discovered by someone, they will find their true self. They also regain all their lost memories. – Grim Reaper No. 007
Episode 11.
Who doesn't fear death? I'm scared of it too, but I fear it less than seeing someone die right in front of my eyes. – Kang Ha Ram
Don't try to change people's fate carelessly. You won't be able to bear the consequence.
Episode 12.
I prayed so hard to meet you, but I was foolish enough to think that someone else was you. I'm sorry. – Kang Ha Ram
I know it's very late, but I'll reveal the truth about my brother's death at all costs. – Han Moo Gang
Episode 13.
I could've kept her safe if I had been by her side. I could've protected her. – Black
According to the rules, the designated grim reaper is supposed to open the capsule as he stands beside the soul. But some other grim reaper opened the capsule. Now, I can only imagine how painful and scared that lost soul must be feeling. The grim reaper should've been there to lead her to the afterworld after explaining to her that she's dead. – Grim Reaper No. 007
When humans die, they don't fully acknowledge what's going on at first. They don't realize that they're dead. Even after finding out that they're dead, they fail to accept it for some time. That's why they never leave their corpse. – Grim Reaper No. 007
I'll go after anyone who gets in my way. – Oh Man Ho
Episode 14.
I'm sorry I came too late. – Black
I earned my life at the cost of his death. I thought I should not easily let go of my life. That must be why I've tried so hard to live my life. – Yoon Soo Wan/Kim Sun Young
I shouldn't have wanted to have you in the first place. – Yoon Soo Wan/Kim Sun Young
How am I supposed to believe you? You lie every time you open your mouth. – Kang Ha Ram
You did all those crazy things and you still don't know why? Are you an idiot? It's love. What else would it be? – Na Gwang Gyun
Someone you love might not stay with you for as long as you think, so don't waste your time. Don't think about anything else. Be true to yourself. – Kang Soo Hyuk
Even though she left me, I loved her. I never regretted that. – Kang Soo Hyuk
Did you like him because you thought he was Joon, or did you like him for who he was? – Oh Man Soo
Black: I'm in love? I'm 444, and he thinks I'm in love with a human? Does this even make sense?
007: No, it doesn't. You're the infamous 444. You're known to be cold-hearted.
He meant to tell you but missed the right timing to do so. I guess he was afraid that you'd leave him, that's why he couldn't tell you. – Yoon Soo Wan/Kim Sun Young
He has been emotionally hurt because of me. I know this is a selfish thing to ask, but I'd appreciate if you could stay by his side. I don't want him to get hurt anymore and you're the only one who can me him happy. So can you please forgive him now? – Yoon Soo Wan/Kim Sun Young
Be happy with her. I'm going to protect you at all costs. – Yoon Soo Wan/Kim Sun Young
I thought about it a lot, but it wasn't because of Joon. I liked you because of who you are. – Kang Ha Ram
Episode 15.
Is it okay if I'm happy without you? – Kang Ha Ram
If you mess with my team, I'll make you regret it. Even if it's the Blue House or the White House, I'll kill them all if they mess with my team.
He loved that woman so much. But once she found out who he was, she ended up running away without looking back. – Grim Reaper No. 007
I hope I'll be able to leave. – Black
Don't ever leave me like my dad or Joon did. – Kang Ha Ram
I wish I was a human being. – Black
I'm scared now. The infamous 444 is in fear. – Black
If I don't leave now, I can't leave her forever. – Black
I'm exhausted now. Can I let go of everything? – Yoon Soo Wan/Kim Sun Young
Episode 16.
You just used her pain for your successful career. – Black
I should make things right before it gets too late. – Song Jae Geun
It's all over now. All I have to do is leave. – Black
Episode 17.
My greed has made you unfortunate. – Kang Soo Hyuk
Apparently, you can't get out of your own body. Your body remembers your soul, so your body holds on to your soul and doesn't let it go. – Grim Reaper No. 416/Jang Hyun Soo
If he ever gets to be born again, I hope he gets to have great parents instead of being stuck with a pathetic mother like me. – Joon's Mother
Episode 18.
Who does he think he is to call me a monster? He's the obnoxious one. – Kang Ha Ram
I don't think she can stand this. She needs you. If you leave her, that poor thing will be a mess. – Ha Ram's Mom
I pity myself so much that it's driving me mad. – Black
I think I got another chance to live because I died so unfairly. – Black
To me, your eyes are the most precious jewels in this world. – Black
Yes, I did promise her. But I never said I'd keep it. – Black
If I could ever be reborn, I want to be reborn as an ordinary person. – Kang Ha Ram
There's a stronger punishment than dissipation. Dissipation means you'll disappear, but the maximum penalty means your existence itself will be denied. You'll never have existed in the first place because you never did. No one will ever remember me. – Kim Yi Ppeun Yi
So the Grim Reaper was erased from everyone's memories. And the others lived happily ever after. This is the story of the foolish Grim Reaper who loved a human being.
I'm sorry for remembering only now. – Kang Ha Ram
"Black was a story about how human desires and greed influence those around us. We hope it was a chance to reflect on people around us."
