The Floral Palace

The Ritual on River

The both family start to build ritual near the river. They decide to stop all the disaster. Ms.Kim shouts, ‘God, please don’t take any victim again!’ Mr.Zhou pleads to God, ‘Is it all of our karma? Is connected with our past? We never quarrel again, and we’ve been keeping promise till now.’

                They plant flowers and pour them through river. Grace hopes to God. ‘I hope there’s not a disturbing again.’ Flower appears through them, ‘I receive all of your gifts. I promise never take again from yours. Thank you for all the gifts of flowers!’ Mr.Zhou warns Flower. ‘Go back to your world, ghost! You should never come to take victims again.’

                The night, there are people started to make camps around the river. The youngsters start to pick the flower. ‘We gonna take the photo here. Can we take photo here?’ The olders start to take photo, ‘We gonna post it through the IG.’

                The night, one of them gets out, the boy. ‘I gonna take a poop around the river. I don’t believe in ghost.’ Flower appears as a man bringing the sword. ‘You dirty my place. I gonna kill you all.’

                Tomorrow, the youth community declares the ritual at the river. The leader, Leeteuk, prays. ‘I never wanna fallen down the victims again, God.’ The one of member, Siwon, pours the flowers, ‘I give you more flowers.’ Flower appears when they go back. Flower asks to Orchid, ‘How about the gifts?’ Orchid answers, ‘Don’t you believe, so fragrant? We must keep and protect them.’

                The evening, comes Davie, the daughter of Jerry. Davie cries. ‘Why am I so lonely? God, I need friends!’ Flower appears, ‘I gonna be your friends, dear!’ Davie scares and runs away from the river. Davie shouts, ‘There’s a man similar to Uncle Nic. Help me, he’s a ghost!’

                Jerry goes to river. He sees none there. He thinks her little daughter just imagination. The little girl asks her Father. ‘Can’t you believe me? See, I see the ghost similar to Uncle Nic!’ Jerry defeats her. ‘There’s no ghost in this world. How you judge there’s a second Uncle Nic?’

                Jerry visits Nicholas tomorrow. Jerry surprises, ‘My little girl saw you last night. You were so pale. Can’t you remember? Is it just my little girl imagination? She’s still young at the age of 4.’

                Davie asks. ‘How come it would be real, Uncle?’ Jerry calms her down, ‘How have you been thinking? Is it your imagination, dear? There’s no ghost in this world. Note it, not anymore!’ Nicholas warns them. ‘Be careful of your own words, Jer!’

                The night, Jerry wants to make milk for Davie. ‘I gonna make milk for you, Daf. I listen you watch TV so noise here.’ Davie gets out from room, ‘Don’t blame me, Dad! I sleep with Mom. We don’t watch TV. I feel so sleepy now.’

                Jerry checks out the living room. He so surprised seeing something, ‘I can’t believe anymore before. Help, ghost!’ Flower drags him to floor, ‘You never believe my existence. You’re an arrogant man. I gonna teach you. How you call yourself Dad, so arrogancy?’ Jerry asks him, ‘Whatcha you wanna do to me?’ Flower throws him through wall, ‘I wanna drag you to my world. You never regard my existence. How about a little torture?’

                Jerry’s wife, Anita, shows the cross to Flower. ‘How dare you torture my sweet?’ Flower shouts, ‘I can’t see the cross. I won’t burn again to you all. Don’t send me to Hell!’ Jerry thanks to Anita, ‘How about a little seduction tonight? You help me from the ghost.’

                Flower waits for the next time. He feels so shame. ‘Everyone dares to fight me with cross. Bring me another victim!’ Orchid stops him, ‘For a while, you just take the rest. How dare you take more victims?’ Flower laughs, ‘I never find happiness when I lived. People are cruel to us when we were the world. Come, give me some more blood!’

                Flower drags a lonely deer. ‘I need an animal for my breakfast. I gonna take all the blood.’ Orchid cooks the deer, ‘Come here, stay with animal for a while! We never wanna suck at human only. Move to the animal from now on! Tonight, we gonna find another animal again.’

                1 week without human, Flower gets so usual and familiar with animal meat. Flower appears through the world. ‘I gonna check another human. I hear the baby sound.’ There’s a woman left her baby aside river, ‘How come this baby born for me? Is it all born before the marriage by the accidental s*x?’

                Flower wants to eat the baby. Orchid stops him. ‘How you dare to eat it?’ Flower answers, ‘What about our food?’ Orchid has an idea, ‘We may eat human again, except baby. We would give baby the real food. Come, let’s find through the world!’

                Flower decides to take the baby as his son. He gives the name. ‘I name you Remember Fish.’ Orchid agrees, ‘Then, we can hold him as our son! I wanna have him!’

                3 years passing, the ritual led by Leeteuk began again. Leeteuk burns the gold through the river. ‘Present it for you, Floral Palace!’ Sungmin, the member, prays for wealth, ‘I believe you can give me wealthy. I decide to make treat with you.’ Flower appears, ‘Whatcha you wanna, wealth? We can give you everything, so you must give me the sacrifice. We wanna blood from the lonely people. We gonna take them as our slaves.’

                One day, Sungmin brings a little girl crying the middle street. Sungmin asks. ‘Where’s my wealth?’ Flower appears, ‘I bring you sack of gold. Whatcha you bring?’ Sungmin shows the little girl. ‘Accept my sacrifice, 12 years old!’ Flower asks, ‘Is it important to tell the age?’

                Knowing this, Vicky stops at them. Vicky reminds Sungmin. ‘Don’t make treat with devil!’ Sungmin runs away with the sack of gold. Flower pulls out his sword to Vicky. They fight together. Flower asks Vicky, ‘Whatcha wanna to stop me? Don’t you afraid of death?’ Vicky shows her cross. ‘Whatcha about this cross necklace of God?’

                Flower gets rid from the cross, ‘Whatcha you wanna do with me? Are you trying to send me to my real world? Stop, hot!’ Vicky lets Sungmin home, ‘If you wanna get rich, you must work hard. The devil only gives you imaginary happiness.’ Sungmin doesn’t care about Vicky advice. Sungmin speaks to her. ‘Don’t you realize, we’re similar poor?’

                Mr.Zhou tries to exam the fertility of apartment. ‘Can we make irrigation from the river?’ The plumber starts to make the pipe, ‘I don’t believe in ghost. I think I gonna make the line first. The pipe should reach the underwater. Why I must afraid of water?’ Flower asks the plumber, ‘Whatcha you wanna do through my palace?’

                The plumber shouts. ‘Who are you? Can you stop to bit me?’ Flower drags the corpse of the plumber underwater, ‘I say never disturbed my calm and peaceful. You gonna be my slave. Let me give you a lesson to regard nature!’ Mr.Zhou surprises, ‘Is it the plumber cloth?’

                Nicholas finds Mr.Zhou collapse, ‘How about the victim again?’ Orchid appears toward him, ‘I remind you not to make pipe under my place. If you don’t listen, I would take victim of you all.’ Nicholas asks back, ‘Is it wrong to make irrigation and world balance of our project?’
