_doom-at-your-service-episode-1-online-with-english-sub.webp "Dong-Kyung has glioblastoma and needs a biopsy. However, she’s unable to go as she can’t take any more time off at work. The doctor certainly doesn’t mince his words, telling her she could well die in 3 to 4 months.<br/><br/>When she leaves the office, she runs into a doctor called Myul-Mang, who nonchalantly admits that he’s handsome and walks away. He heads to the trauma center, preparing for the arrival of numerous injured victims off the back of a nasty knife incident on the intersection. Dong-Kyung sees all this take place and receives a shock of her own when the bill for her hospital visit comes in.<br/><br/><br/>With curtains drawn around around each victim, Myul-Mang heads in alone and speaks to one of the men. He claims to be in control of the man’s doom, grabbing him round the neck.<br/><br/>When he does, the man’s cut neck completely heals. “You’ll find there are worse things than death.” He mutters.<br/><br/>With a blood spatter on his doctor’s jacket, Myul-Mang heads up to the rooftop and bemoans the life of a deity. He’s in charge of people’s doom, as it turns out, and seems to be a sort of Grim Reaper.<br/><br/><br/>Later that day, Dong-Kyung meets up with her boyfriend. Only… it’s not her boyfriend there. Instead, it’s the guy’s wife and she throws a glass of water in her face. It turns out Dong-Kyung has been the mistress in this relationship all along, and she finds out in the worst possible way.<br/><br/>After retorting with some scathing words, telling her to blame Dong-Kyung not her boyfriend, this pregnant woman suddenly starts getting pains in her stomach. Dong-Kyung is in a difficult position and eventually goes with her to the hospital. She’s also forced to fill out the guardian details of her boyfriend. Or, well, ex-boyfriend anyway.<br/><br/>Eventually Dong-Kyung heads back to work. Once there though, CEO Park berates her lateness. He’s pretty sexist and turns heads in the office too.<br/><br/>However, worse is yet to come. Someone recorded the encounter at the café with the pregnant woman and Dong-Kyung is horrified. Her boss plays the video but Dong-Kyung is flustered, claiming it isn’t her.<br/><br/><br/>Well, Dong-Kyung’s day turns from bad to worse when a man snaps her photos on the subway. Dong-Kyung heads out to chase him, but just as she does the ground suddenly opens up and knocks him down. It’s Myul-Mang’s doing, as it turns out, and he watches with disdain from afar.<br/><br/>And if that wasn’t bad enough, it starts to rain. Dong-Kyung’s brother then rings, asking for money while he’s gaming. Dong-Kyung is not happy, especially as this happens to be their parents’ anniversary. They died long ago and their guardians are actually off in Canada now. It seems like Dong-Kyung and Sun-Kyung are on their own.<br/><br/>Cursing his luck, Myul-Mang eventually drives off and heads back home. He drinks alone, staring out the window. However, Dong-Kyung does the same as both characters notice numerous shooting stars. Dong-Kyung makes a wish and hopes for the world to end – and for doom to be brought to this world.")
