[Welcome to the students
of Geumdangcho Hwado Branch]

Hey, Gu Nam Sik.

What are you going to do if you
make such reckless statements

and can't back them up?

Hey, I've already met

Eun Chae's parents

and explained everything well.

Hey, Mr. Gu,

let's only take on what we can

actually be responsible for, okay?

It's tough.

Ugh, so tough.

Where should you go, O Sang Sik?

Mister!

Did you get lost too, mister?

Huh?

[Episode 2]

♫ Even now, this clueless night still excites me ♫

♫ The breeze softly lingers, if I get tipsy ♫

♫ I'll just be happy, doing what I want ♫

♫ If you feel the same way ♫

♫ It would be better ♫

Are you okay?

Yu Ri.

Get yourself together!

Can't you even track your own movements properly?

It's because you've been skipping practice

for your drama shoot,

and there's no time to sync up.

It's fine.

Hey.

Am I just playing around?

Eun Chae.

That place showed nothing but me everywhere.

I too wanted to reach the dazzling window

hidden behind the mirrored wall.

But no matter how much I turned my head,

all I could see was just
my shabby, unattractive self.

[Episode 2 Beginning]

I need to cheer up.

Sang Sik, fighting!

Sang Sik, stay strong.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Who's this guy in this narrow alley?

So jealous.

Huh?

[Dorothy]

What's with this guy?

What's with this rude behavior,

parking in front of someone else's business?

Huh?

Mr. O?

Who's this guy?

Ah.

Oh, so you're

an aspiring film director, right?

I heard that you even won some awards.

I did.

Looks like your family's well-off, huh?

But, winning an award for
a short film doesn't make money,

and since I'm still working on my script,
I haven't been able to secure a contract.

I was even fired from
my editing part-time job recently.

Well, then...

Rent? Rent.

Oh.

When I got kicked out for pursuing film,

my dad told me to cut ties

and leave with just one thing.

So, I picked my dad's car then.

Dad's car...

So, this is the one who caused a scene

with Yeo Reum's PD, right?

Thanks to that, the misunderstanding
was cleared up,

but it seems like

he ended up unemployed.

- Oh, dear.
- So, I thought

it's only right to buy him a drink
to cheer him up, that's why I called him.

I'm his ex-wife.

Ex-wife.

Why would you even talk about something like that?

Eat up a lot.

Today, I'll just take the money for the drinks.

Only two bottles of soju?

Ugh.

Just drink two bottles.

Yes.

Well...

can I take a look at the movie script

you're working on?

When do you plan to film it?

Are you pitching? Casting?

Oh, no. I'm just interested in production.

Well, our Yeo Reum is the type of person

who does her part no matter
what you ask her to do.

Our agency even had her

take acting lessons

as part of our efforts.

Ms. Yang,

is there dinner for me?

I'll do it, that thing.

Really?

You'll try?

Just give me the camera and Manager Hwang.

For styling and makeup.

I'll roughly draft the script.

There's no such thing.

I'm asking for just the two
of them to stick with me.

This isn't a broadcast,

but a trip.

- Eat up a lot.
- Are you really telling me

- Thank you.
- to go alone

and figure it out by myself?

Sending just this bracelet

and asking me to go on

this strange mission...

I don't even know who requested it. Really, alone?

Yes.

They look like father and daughter, don't they?

It seems Dad made a firm decision.

You have a really good eye.

Doing whatever you told me,

I worked hard.

Yeah.

But now, you're abandoning me, aren't you?

Go.

I've already settled your pay for this month.

There's no hope for you

in broadcasting.

Whether you go back to
your hometown or find a part-time job,

it's up to you.

I've given you your ticket home,

okay?

Definitely father and daughter.

Yeah... they really are.

[Kang Yeo Reum]

[Let's always be together]

Take it.

Take it.

And,

go.

There's no hope for you

in broadcasting.

Hello, I'm Kang Yeo Reum.

I'm from Hwado, and Hwado is really far.

From Wando in the south, it takes two hours

by boat to an island called Eundangdo,

then another hour by a small boat.

Hwado used to be full of flowers,

which is why it's called
Hwado, but not so much now.

Why did you come to Seoul?

You should've just stayed in Hwado.

Dad! Dad!

I'm going to take a boat to Seoul now.

I'll go to Eundangdo, then take a boat to Wando,

and they say there's
a car waiting at the terminal.

It's a company car,

and they're taking me to Seoul.

Kang Yeo Reum,

listen to what I'm saying.

Once you go to Seoul,

never come back here.

Forget about me, forget about
your mom, forget about Yeo Hoon.

Dad.

Keep my words in mind.

Don't come here until you succeed.

Understood?

Never

return to Hwado.

I want to quit.

I'll quit.

There are only talented kids,

and I'm not good at anything.

I hate being in Seoul.

I hate the dorm, I hate everything.

I want to go to Hwado.

I want to go home, Dad.

Dad.

Come pick me up.

Please come get me.

Listen to me, Kang Yeo Reum.

There's no easy way in this world.

Everything is hard and tough.

If you're not good at anything,

keep doing it until you are.

I told you not to go back to Hwado, right?

You can't

come back to Hwado until you succeed.

What am I supposed to do?

What can I do when it's impossible?

What can I do when it's impossible?

Dad,

what's success?

[Congratulations on graduating]

I...

I keep feeling like...

I can't breathe.

I'm ruined.

Dad.

It's time for English conversation.

Kang Yeo Reum, it's time for English conversation.

I even studied English

because I thought I might get

an overseas schedule for my show.

How ridiculous, Kang Yeo Reum.

You've never even been abroad once.

It's time for English conversation.

- Kang Yeo Reum...
- Jeez.

♫ Embracing my body, covered in thorns ♫

Now, figure it out yourself.

Whether you go back to
your hometown or find a part-time job,

now, figure it out yourself.

I've given you your ticket home.

[Train Ticket to Mokpo]

Keep my words in mind.

Don't come back here until you succeed.

Understood?

Never

return to Hwado.

There's nowhere to go.

I don't have a place

in Seoul, nor in Hwado.

The way to Seoul was cold,

and the way home is painful.

I've never traveled alone before.

Travel was always part of my work

with scripts and direction.

I'm such an idiot.

Take it.

Thank you.

Oh my, my body aches.

I'll be dead from this by dawn.

Where are you going?

Which train are you waiting for?

Ah, just Mokpo.

Oh, Mokpo?

Honestly, I don't know either.

I have nowhere to go.

Oh dear, why are you flinching?

Where did you get this?

I just got this from somewhere...

Do you know what it is?

You don't see things like this much these days.

What is this?

See,

these beads are all different sizes, right?

The ones made these days

are all the same size and shape,

but these are clearly

all different sizes.

This was made the old-fashioned way

by drying prayer bead tree fruits.

Ma'am.

Do you happen to know about Buyeo?

Buyeo? I do.

My cousin got married there.

I wonder if she's doing well.

Prayer bead tree fruits?

I heard the tickets to Mokpo sold out,

but you're lucky.

I wonder if the tickets just came out now?

I have a feeling that you'll

genuinely do your best
to capture the place on video.

Why... Buyeo?

I'm also curious.

It's here.

Oh dear.

Sit over here.

Thank you.

Thanks.

No problem.

Oh my, look at me.

Here's the train ticket fare.

[Arrival Station, Mokpo]

There's no direct train to Buyeo from here.

I see.

So, you'll need to go to Daejeon

and transfer to a bus heading to Buyeo,

or go to the terminal

and take a bus that goes straight there.

Then, you can get there in one go.

Either way, it's going to take quite some time.

[Gongju, Buyeo, Nonsan]

Where are you heading?

Ticket for Buyeo, please.

Alright, it's 18,000 won.

Here you go.

Thank you.

[Boarding pass, Buyeo]

[To Buyeo]

[Seoul]

This is how it begins.

My first trip.

[To Buyeo]
At the dawn train station,

with a snack handed to me by a stranger

and with a foreign,

unfamiliar person who would take me

to some unplanned destination.

The weather is nice.

It's the perfect weather for a trip.

[Janghang]

Perfect? My foot.

Where should I even go?

[Winner]

What did you say to her before sending her off?

I didn't say much.

Where is Yeo Reum now?

She probably went to Hwado.

She's been gone for such a long time, right?

What Hwado are you talking about?

Dorothy's Ms. Yang said

she saw Yeo Reum leave

at the crack of dawn, just with a bag.

I called her home in Hwado and casually asked,

but they said they hadn't heard anything about it.

No phone call?

They said she's going to another program,

and they seemed pleased about it!

Another program?

You treated her like a baby, swaddled her up

and carried her around with such care.

Then suddenly, you tell her
there's no hope for broadcasting

and push her to go back home.

Where is she supposed to go?

You can't just push someone around like that.

You told me not to make her into a helpless child,
but to let her become independent.

Wow, that's how you interpreted that?

She said that she's almost thirty,

but can't do anything on her own,

has no skills, no education,

and doesn't even know what she can do,

and then she cried her heart out and left.

Oh, then,

where is she right now?

How would I know?

She's not answering her phone.

What if she does something reckless?

The subscriber has powered off,
connecting to voicemail...

The phone is off.

Welcome.

Hello.

Can I charge my phone here?

Yes, give it to me.

[Residential Alleyway/Night]

Once again, is perfection

something that only exists in ideals?

This place that comforts weary people

attracts hundreds of thousands annually...

I'm sorry. I'll do it again.

Yeo Reum, loosen up a bit.

Come on, I can do it.

Try again.

Okay.

Vivid Life Kang Yeo Reum

appears at a convenience store.

A self-proclaimed celebrity.

Former girl group member.

Wow, it's a celebrity.

[A new post]

Huh?

[Vivid Life Kang Yeo Reum]

Where is this place?

Oh, no.

It's hot.

A celebrity's embarrassing moment.

How does she eat ramyeon?

Buyeo Jungang-ro Convenience Store.

[Buyeo Jungang-ro Convenience Store]
Why did you go there?

Leave it.

Just leave it, it's fine.

- It's okay.
- I'm sorry.

Ah, I'm really sorry.

- No, it's okay.
- Thank you.

By any chance,

aren't you Flower, the singer?

Kang Yeo Reum?

No, I'm not.

Really?

Come on, I think you are.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Why did she spill so much?

She left her phone here.

♫ On this street I walk alone ♫

♫ A faint silence flows ♫

What am I even doing here?

♫ I take myself purer, purer ♫

What are you trying to do, Kang Yeo Reum?

♫ What's happening to me ♫

♫ I don't wanna be someone else ♫

♫ Those come from my former self ♫

♫ A day, another year, now too far gone ♫

♫ Hard to say, what's fake or real ♫

♫ I'll face the world ♫

♫ I just want to find myself ♫

♫ This unfamiliar version of me ♫

♫ Reflected in another shadow ♫

[Restaurant]

♫ Smiling, yet it feels like crying ♫

♫ Between truth and lies, which is better ♫

Is the restaurant open?

Please.

[Jangteo Restaurant]

Is anyone here?

Anyone there?

Boss.

Boss.

[Mr. O Sang Sik]

Seriously...

Oh no, oh no.

This is a big problem,
a big problem! She's not answering?

She's not answering the phone,
so that's why I'm like this.

It's because I'm worried.

Has there ever been a time
in 15 years when she didn't answer?

She's the kind of person who has to reply
within 5 minutes just to feel at ease.

The reason she's not answering the phone is

because something must have happened to her.

She's not the type to do that!

Is Yeo Reum the type to do that?

Do you know how fragile the mindset is
of those who've given up everything

to focus on one thing since their trainee days?

Well, then do something!

Why do you keep scaring me like that?

Honestly, I'm losing my mind too...

[Financial Director Ha Na]

Oh, dear.

Oh, why all this love?

Why? What is it?

What's happening?

[Kang Yeo Reum is in Buyeo now]
Buyeo...

Buyeo...

Buyeo...

That place?

The requested travel destination!

I mean, Kate.

She's really...

[Si Wan]

Who's Si Wan?

No way.

By any chance, is it Cha Si Wan?

Wow, amazing.

Wow, no way. I love Cha Si Wan.

Is it really that Cha Si Wan?

Darn, what should I do?

Should I answer?

Ah, I'll just pick it up

and check if it's really him.

Yes, this is the convenience store.

Is this the convenience
store on Jungang-ro in Buyeo?

Location tracking confirms that
the lost phone is in this store.

Ah, yes. That's correct.

You know that someone

who embezzles another person's lost property

could be charged with
theft under the criminal law,

you know that, right?

Yes, I'm aware.

Alright, then.

Keep the phone right there

until the owner comes to claim it.

Understood?

Yes, understood.

Jeez.

Oh, gosh.

We've closed for business.

This is just family dinner, so I won't charge you.

How can I just eat this?

If you can't eat, just leave it.

I'll enjoy the meal.

Wow.

This is really delicious, madam.

Are you originally from Seoul?

Yes.

No.

I'm pretending to be a Seoul girl,

but I'm not actually a Seoul girl.

That came out of nowhere.

What are you talking about?

Wow.

This is truly delicious, madam.

This is just greens,
but how do they taste so good?

How dare you say it's just greens?

This here is tree of heaven root,

these are mulberry leaves,

and this is perilla leaf salad.

They all have different scents,

tastes, and styles,

so how can they all just be called 'greens'?

If you group them all together like that,

you're disrespecting them.

They might look similar at first glance,

but there's nothing alike about them.

People are all different,

so are herbs and flowers,
they all have their own uniqueness.

If you don't know that,
you're not worthy of eating it.

Need to take photos.

Can I charge my phone here?

Give it to me.

Convenience store.

Grandma.

Huh?

Huh?

You are Kang Yeo Reum from Flower, right?

Vivid Life Day Trip.

Yes.

Ah, you can just talk about it. Why run away?

Well, that's...

Well... who're those?

The loving Mr. O Sang Sik and that Ha Na...

And, Cha...

Anyway, there were a lot of calls,

but I didn't answer because it's yours.

The phone is still at the convenience store.

I'll bring it to you later.

Thank you.

Ah, but why did you come here?

Are you here for travel?

Uh... Well, something like that.

I've got the bus fare ready,
so you can sleep over there, Seoul girl.

Is that really okay, madam?

Then, are you telling me

you're going to sleep in a motel or inn

where drunk men go in and out?

What's wrong with motels? That place is fine.

You punk.

Do something about that hair color.

What's this nonsense about learning movies?

Huh? So you're a film student.

Nice to meet you.

I also studied acting a bit.

Nice to meet you.

Why, madam?

That's...

Where did you get that from?

Have you been well?

I'm just...

Same routine every day,
golf, shopping... Nothing changes.

Who are you looking at,
grinning like you're in heaven?

Just stick to the conversation you were having.

Who is it? Huh?

Is it a celebrity? A movie star?

Ah, who is it?

Do you know who this is

if I tell you?

Tell me who it is.

Jeez.

You bourgeois brats.

Look at these youngsters wasting money on alcohol.

Why make money if it's not for something fun?

Drink it all.

I'm treating today.

Nice.

Cheers.

Who've you been hanging with lately?

It's been ages since our group met up.

Yeah, what do you do these days?

Eat, sleep, and take care of the basics...

Life's the same, so why ask about it?

I heard you're getting into movies.

Who's the actress?

Yang Hye Ji? Lee Joo Seo?

Hey, I've been liking that actress lately...

Choi Da Rae.

Ah, Yeon Seok, he still made it big, huh?

Hey, you know what?

Lately, even the background in my dreams
is the trading room's market board.

I'm jealous, Yeon Seok.

What's to be jealous of?

Hey.

You still cut off contact with your parents?

I didn't cut them off...

I became independent, man.

You punk,

you can't do anything without
Daddy and Mommy, right?

Hey, got any good sources?

Hey, there's something called With C.

[Mr. O Sang Sik]

Perfect timing.

Good, good, good.

Let's go.

Ah, just leave her be.

Why is that?

Come on.

Why? Do you think...

Do you think I'm doing this
because I wanted to ride this car?

Ugh, seriously.

I could go in my own car, but...

My...

My heart's pounding right now,

so I don't think I can drive.

I mean, Yeo Reum.

Just let her be and watch.

She just followed whatever
the agency told her to do,

got older, and ended up
with nothing to show for it,

with nothing she knows how to do.

And you're saying it's your fault?

So?

For the first time ever,
she's going somewhere on her own will.

It's Kang Yeo Reum's first trip
as a travel reporter.

Do you really think

Dad needs to follow her?

First trip...

Well, maybe if there's a handsome guy
involved, it'd be different,

but otherwise, it'll just be boring.

Super boring.

- Boring?
- I'll go.

Super boring?

You...

Mister?

Get out for a sec.

Uh, no...

How do you open this?

[Jangteo Restaurant]
I'm not sure if my memory is correct.

But, I vaguely remember picking seeds

from the soapberry on the way to Muryangsa Temple,

then pricking and drying them
to make a prayer bead bracelet.

That knot.

People in our village used to make those often.

Muryangsa Temple.

Go take a look.

The path there is nice for walking.

Yes, I'll go and come back.

Uh, wait a moment. Hold on, hold on.

This, this.

Thank you.

Why are you using formal speech
when we're the same age?

Save my number.

I mean, if something happens
like yesterday, contact me.

Since I'm nearby, I'll be faster
than those love-filled people.

Yes, I'll do that.

Ah, I'll find a photo of the tree and send it.

After visiting Muryangsa Temple,
come to the convenience store.

Since I know Buyeo very well.

Yeah, I will.

Thank you.

I'll be back.

Come back safely.

Bye.

Jeez.

What are you doing?

I'm doing this because
I'm worried she might be in danger.

Because she might go
looking for another restaurant.

Oh, dear.

For five years, whenever I went down
to the countryside for filming,

there was always this big tree in the village.

I looked at those unusually
thick and large trees, and I thought,

during all the long years people came under them,

sharing their secrets

and making wishes, I wondered

if the tree had absorbed those stories,

growing bigger and stronger in the process.

Oh dear.

Kate.

Was that prayer bead tree like that too?

After listening to someone's
desperate stories for years,

would it have grown enormously by now?

Kate.

This is Muryangsa Forest Trail.

Not far from here,

there's an old soapberry tree
known as the prayer bead tree.

This bracelet

might have been made from
the fruit of that tree, right?

So,

I'm heading there now.

I wish I could capture the breeze
blowing through this forest,

but it's so disappointing.

Well, I'll continue on.

The heart to share food with a stranger,

guide them,

offer them a meal,

and let them rest.

Where does it come from?

Is that really okay, madam?

It was only one day,

but I feel like I'm a different person
than I was yesterday.

To me who was nothing.

To me who knew nothing.

To me who was just wandering alone,

kindness has come.

Though I'm not a star center or main character.

Oh, right.

Kate, can you see?

That tree right there is the prayer bead tree.

Let me get closer and take a photo.

Huh? Someone's here.

Is that person also here
to see the tree, just like us?

Kate?

Is this a dream?

Kate.

When did you come here?

Why are you taking photos without permission?

Delete them!

Oh, Kate.

Wait.

Hold on.

Kate.

Just a moment.

Should we talk...

You punk.

Is that all you're capable of?

Everyone was so worried.

You suddenly disappear like that,

and hang up the phone...

Do you know how much people must have worried?

You told me to go.

What?

No, I told you to go home.

When did I say that?

You said I had no future in broadcasting.

You told me to figure it out on my own,

whether I go back home or work part-time, right?

It's bitter.

It's black coffee.

That's because

you just couldn't see anything
but what's right in front of you.

Hey, is life over
if it's not in front of the camera?

Is life meaningless if it's not broadcasting?

I've lived only for that.
What else could have meaning then?

What?

Why is it meaningless? Why?

Just because something didn't go well,
you think life has no meaning?

Those two always looks...

Mr. Lee.

Here it is.

Don't they look like

an angry dad yelling at his runaway daughter?

Oh, yes.

That's exactly it.

What's exactly like that?

Pardon?

'Dad, I hate you!'

He looks like the dad
who would panic if his kid said that.

Oh, yes. That's exactly it.

Why do you keep saying that?

How did you end up here like this?

I really liked your short film,

and when I sent a follow request,
you followed me back,

and I was really, really happy about that.

Does my voice sound familiar?

Pardon?

Never mind.

I think you need to train yourself
to completely understand

the subjects within the frames you shoot.

Oh, yes.

Those frames, subjects.

Yeah.

Don't post stuff like this. It was really bad.

Oh, you saw it?

I know everything

you did last night.

Are there no good restaurants?

Alright, then.

Keep the phone right there

until the owner comes to claim it, understood?

Wow,

he's a genius.

Kang Yeo Reum.

Have you been working
with this kind of mindset all along?

What's the big deal about some broadcast?

If it's not that, does life have no meaning, man?

Then, where should I find meaning?

What should I do?

Should I open a shopping mall like Yu Ri?

Or go to school late like Ji Woo? Huh?

What?

After our group disbanded,

everyone found their own path early on.

Only I stayed here,

persisting to try something,
only to end up abandoned like this.

Abandoned?

Abandoned?

Wow.

You, seriously...

Hey, man.

Are you saying people are objects?

Who's abandoning whom, huh?

Sit down, sit down,

sit down.

Yeah,

that's why I'm telling you to quit, alright?

Huh?

Why are you putting the meaning
of your life in something like that?

Hey, if it doesn't work out,

just spit it out and turn away...

Spit and walk away. That's all.

Where should I turn?

Where do I turn?

Where's there to turn?

I don't even have a place to turn,

let alone a place to go back to right now.

Nowhere to go.

If you think like that, you...

Quit everything, you punk.

Hey,

a boxer

gets hit a few times

in the ring,

and

if he falls,

does that mean

his life is over?

Does life end

outside the ring?

You just lost this round.

You break your fists over losing a few games?

You get knocked down,

you get broken...

The show sponsorship was our chairman's idea.

But, I disagreed.

Even without the strength to die,

it's still a game.

Just play the next game.

In the next game,

you can win.

I feel like

I've always lived like a boxer
fighting her last match in life.

After losing in the game,

I felt like a player who would never return.

I was so overwhelmed, holding onto
the spot I was hit, crying,

that I forgot about the people

cheering for me outside the ring.

The game of our lives will continue,

and as long as there are people rooting for me,

I'll step back into the ring.

As long as I don't throw
the white towel of surrender,

the game will not end.

[My Lovely Journey]

How about partnering with me?

Partnering?

A travel agency specializing in substitute travel.

A travel agency?

By the way, who is he?

Mr. Lee will be

in charge of editing the footage you shot.

It's a commissioned project,
so we should send them well-shot footage.

Travel videos are better with natural sounds.

It's called a windshield.

Thank you so much, Yeon Seok Oppa.

Oppa?

Is it okay if I call you Oppa?

Yes.

Right.

This is what travel is.

Buyeo was

so beautiful,

and so warm.

You've come back as the gutsy person you were.

Why did you come here?

- For an interview...
- For an interview?

I heard your show got canceled. What interview!

No, it's not like that.

What are you scheming?

Butting into other people's wounds...

Well done, Kang Yeo Reum.

The truth was simple.

It's her.

Who gave this to you?
