(Lovers in Bloom)

(Episode 62)

- I'll see you again soon. - Okay.

Tae Jin.

It's me, Mom.

Tae Jin.

Let go of me.

Wait a minute.

Talk to me for a minute.

Please, Tae Jin.

Tae Jin, I...

- Hi. - Hi.

How is Grandma?

She's feeling much better.

You must've been very worried.

Go in and see her.

I'm home, Grandma.

I'm sorry.

I shouldn't...

bring you any pain.

I'm truly sorry.

It's okay.

I won't die from being sick.

Did you have dinner?

You should have dinner first.

You must be tired from working all day in the sun.

Grandma.

Go on.

I'm home.

You smell like pork ribs.

It's been a while since I've felt so full.

Hi.

Whom did you meet?

We did a commercial for a small company a while ago.

They wanted to ask us to do another one for them.

They seem to be getting a huge investment and expanding.

That's great news.

Nothing is set yet.

Why not?

It's up to us.

Let's go inside.

Okay.

Su Hyuk is pretending everything is okay,

but I'm sure he's torn inside.

Of course.

I think he liked her a lot.

Did he say anything to you?

Actually, Bo Ra came to see me at the substation.

When?

Right after the incident with you.

She asked if Su Hyuk was okay...

and that she didn't know what to do.

What did you tell her?

I had nothing to tell her.

Su Hyuk seemed to have no intention of seeing her again.

So I told her leaving him alone would be the best.

She couldn't say anything. She just nodded. I felt so bad.

Then, did she ask him to help...

What are you talking about?

Well...

In fact...

Oh, right.

Nothing. Never mind.

What were you trying to say?

Why did you stop it? You made me so curious.

Nothing. Forget it.

A promise is a promise.

A promise? To whom did you make a promise?

You wouldn't know even if I told you.

- Goodness. - My gosh.

My goodness.

Dad, you complain about the food whenever you go to a restaurant.

You should've let it slide.

It's very difficult to satisfy different people's different tastes.

If so, they shouldn't run a restaurant.

Is it even cheap?

They shouldn't make us feel like we wasted our money at least.

- Don't you agree? - That's exactly what I thought.

I really think that I would've done a better job.

If all customers were like you, no one would dare to run a restaurant.

Mom.

You're home.

I didn't know you were home.

I would've had dinner with you if we knew you were home.

Dad said that you had plans for tonight.

If you enjoyed the dinner, it's okay.

Mom doesn't look so well.

Is something wrong?

Don't worry about her.

I'm sure Dad will make her feel better.

Did you come home early?

Yes, I did.

I wanted you to have a good time with your daughter.

So I had dinner before coming home.

Thank you.

Did something happen?

No, nothing happened.

Go wash up.

Wait a minute.

Talk to me for a minute.

I just need a minute.

Please, I'm begging you.

Tae Jin, I...

You're home.

Are you stepping out?

Yes, briefly.

Are you going to see Officer Moo?

Why are you being like this again?

You must've worked with her all day long.

Wasn't that enough?

Do you really want to go out this late when Grandma is unwell?

What's with that look you're giving me.

What are you trying to do?

- What are you doing? - What?

Why are you raising your voices?

Your grandma just fell asleep.

Tae Jin, how could you be so disrespectful to your sister?

I'm sorry. I'll step out briefly.

Did you see him? He's unbelievable.

He got mad at me when he's the one who did wrong.

Could it be that Tae Jin found out about your mom...

Gosh. Don't say that.

Hee Jin, can I see you for a minute?

Go on now.

Not long ago, I saw your mom near our house.

Dad.

How long have you been seeing her?

It hasn't been long.

She came to see me in front of Hae Chan's school.

She's right. Mother, I mean, her mom...

happened to see Hee Jin and Hae Chan.

I was so shocked that I came home without even looking back.

Then, a few days later, she called me.

Then, we'll go to our room.

I guess I interrupted you guys.

No, you didn't.

We discussed the matter regarding Tae Jin. That's all.

- Good night. - Good night.

I feel bad for Hae Chan's uncle.

The more I see him,

the more warm-hearted he seems.

How... How did you know that?

Do you think I'm stupid?

He smiled at me when our eyes met.

He said "Thank you" or "It's okay" to me.

Even though he didn't talk long, I could tell how he felt.

When I first saw him, he was so quiet for his age.

I thought he was cold-hearted.

But after I heard about his mom from you,

I began to feel bad for him.

Hae Chan's mom vents her frustrations, at least.

However, Hae Chan's uncle kept all the pain...

inside of him.

He must have been distressed and lonely all this time.

He was only 11 years old when his mom left.

Lately, he smiled a lot,

and looked happy, and that made me feel relieved.

If you force him to break up with her...

What are you trying to say?

I'm just saying that you can't control your emotions.

What are you saying? That's nonsense.

I just feel bad thinking how hard it must be...

for Hae Chan's uncle to deal with it by himself.

I'm sorry. I shouldn't have meddled in that matter.

Just as they say that an evil deed will be discovered,

Father has found out about that at last.

I think it's a good thing.

He would've found out eventually.

I don't even worry anymore.

That's not the problem. Tae Jin is the real problem.

It turned out that Grandmother was much smarter than you.

Don't you think what she said is right?

She left Tae Jin with no choice.

Doesn't it seem like that Tae Jin found out that you met Officer Moo?

He got mad at you all of a sudden.

See? I told you not to meet her.

You never listen to me.

So what if he did find out?

Also, if she told on me, I won't let it slide.

What are you going to do?

Are you going to pull out her hair or something?

- Why not? - Hee Jin!

Mom and Dad, are you guys fighting?

We're not fighting. I was scolding your mom.

- Where have you been? - At an internet cafe.

You're just having so much fun.

You told me to take a break.

Aren't you even worried?

In your school alone, there are dozens who get better grades.

They must be taking lessons during their summer break.

Do you really want to waste your time because I gave you free time?

Hee Jin, stop.

Why is everyone doing this to me?

Nothing is going as I want, and it's frustrating!

Hey. Why did you...

What did I ever do?

Try to understand her.

Forget it.

Your mom is going through a hard time for many reasons.

She also has a thyroid problem.

I've been holding back because of that.

It would be great if she sees you studying hard,

but if that's hard,

don't let her see you at all.

Are you calling that a solution?

That's the only way you and I can survive in this family.

Whatever.

Excuse me. Can I get a bottle of soju...

- I see you often lately. - Hello.

I heard your case was resolved well.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Do you mind if I join you?

Of course not.

- Are you waiting for Goong Hwa? - Yes, I am.

Let me pour you a glass.

It couldn't have been easy to make up your mind to date my sister.

She is someone...

that makes me forget to think about whether it will be easy or hard.

What did you like so much about that nosy scatterbrain?

She's not a coward, but brave.

Whenever she faces a hardship,

she doesn't run away but faces it head on.

That's interesting. Most people say it's because she's pretty or nice.

She must be difficult to handle because she causes so much trouble.

She always keeps me on the edge of my seat.

She isn't the type to make others uncomfortable.

She makes me want to be a better person.

Su Hyuk.

Speak of the devil.

What's this? Were you talking about me?

Of course.

What else would we have to talk about with each other?

- Is that true? - Yes.

I don't believe it. You seem to get along pretty well.

Do you want something to eat?

No, I had dinner.

I think this is my cue to step out.

You should stay.

I have some work to finish up.

- See you. - Bye.

See you next time.

The drinks are on me next time.

It seems like you two have become quite close.

It doesn't take long when two men click.

We recognize each other without having to say much like women do.

I can't deny it since it's my brother.

Did you already drink this much?

I think you've had enough.

I'm fine.

Wait, are you drinking so you can ask me to take you home?

Don't worry.

I didn't drive, so let me drink.

Okay, there's nothing better than a full stomach.

- Let's drink. - Are you going to drink?

I'm going to be your drinking buddy.

I need to have at least one drink.

I'll just take a sip.

Cheers.

Is something wrong?

Why do you keep asking?

I sensed it while you were drinking.

There's always a reason when you drink a lot.

I'm ready to hear whatever you have bottled inside.

Is something going on at home?

Is it because your grandmother is sick?

I saw her.

What?

Who?

The person who calls herself my mom.

She showed up all of a sudden...

and said she's my mom as if it were the most natural thing.

Tae Jin.

So what did you do?

What could I do?

I have nothing to say to her.

She showed up after 20 years...

and had the audacity to call herself my mom.

No wonder...

she could abandon her children.

Goong Hwa.

Are you being nice to me because I'm pathetic?

Why do you think you're pathetic?

You have me by your side now.

You're home.

You pretended to be fine,

but went to get a drink by yourself?

I'm glad that at least you're happy.

Actually, it isn't all that good for me either.

Is something wrong with Tae Jin?

Twins are special, don't you think?

Did you read my mind?

What's wrong?

His sister came to see me.

How did she know about you?

She owns a chicken restaurant.

We often went there for team dinners.

Ju Young's mom works there.

Then the person she married...

Yes, he's Tae Jin's father.

What?

Then the person who paid off her debt is Tae Jin's father?

Yes.

So?

What did his sister say?

- Not much. - Was it bad?

No.

She quietly said a few words,

but that hurt more than a slap in the face would have.

She says what she hates the most in the world...

are women that have forgotten that they are mothers.

Suddenly, Woo Ri's face came to mind...

and I felt so sorry.

My heart...

It wasn't just a feeling, but it really hurt.

But I still didn't want to break up with him.

Did you tell Tae Jin?

Are you out of your mind?

I'm not that stupid.

He must already have a lot on his mind because of me.

I can't add to it.

I have a conscience.

You did the right thing.

I think it's better you don't tell him.

I don't know what to do.

I can't ignore their pain...

to keep my happiness.

I get worried whenever he looks troubled.

I feel bad for you.

Is love always this hard?

It seems so easy for other people.

Darn it.

Maybe we're just unlucky.

Do we even share luck as twins?

- Darn it. - Goodness.

Goodness.

Who knew I would be making you a snack instead of food for drinks?

Aren't you going to bed?

Can't you just simply thank me?

I think I've become a good excuse for you.

You were tossing and turning in bed...

when you had a good thought.

"I should cook for my beloved brother who is working".

I can't deny it.

Let's run the hotel together later on.

No thanks.

Don't think of tying me down there.

I'm going to do something on my own.

- Bo Ra. - When I find something...

I really I want to do, I won't hesitate.

I won't let it go.

So when I try to fly away,

you can open the door for me.

I won't ever see you again if you stop me one more time.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

I thought you were okay because you handled it well.

You can wait in the car if you can't take it.

I'm fine.

We have to secure the area until the NFS arrives.

We've done everything necessary.

You're bleeding.

I guess I am.

I must've bitten my lips too hard.

There was a lot of blood,

and the deceased is someone I know.

Why did you pretend you were okay?

That's because I'm a police officer.

You're right. You did a good job.

You could work at the investigation or serious crime divisions later.

Are you saying the victim is the indoor golf center owner...

who made a scene here yesterday?

Yes. Apparently, there was a gang fight near the crime scene.

I hate murder cases.

Why did it happen in our jurisdiction?

We have to solve this case as soon as possible.

If we fail to catch the murderer and the case remains a cold case,

we'll be in trouble.

Of course, we should catch the murderer.

I hated him when he was making a scene here,

but I feel so bad for him now that he's been murdered.

By the way, it must've been your first murder scene, Officer Moo.

Was it okay?

Yes.

She handled it better than I thought she would.

That's great, Officer Moo. You're amazing.

Goodness.

It's a tradition to eat beef tripe and intestine soup...

after the first murder scene to remove bad energy. Did you eat it?

No way. You get to eat it only when you have...

attended the autopsy.

You have to take out the liver and weigh it,

and take out the brain and touch it.

Only then, you get to eat beef tripe and intestine soup.

Can you imagine that?

I thought she was holding out so well.

Did you really have to be so mean?

She won't be able to sleep for a few days.

After I saw my first murder scene,

it took me 3 months and 10 days to overcome it.

I hope I won't see any murder scene.

Hey. If you say that, you'll see a lot of them.

It may become a jinx.

So just try to empty your mind.

That's too difficult for me.

Yes, Dad.

Let's meet up outside after work.

I'll go to your workplace.

(Stove Corporation)

Gosh. We've been fooled again.

Who would invest in a company like this?

Advertisement?

That's funny.

There she is.

Ms. Koo.

Ms. Koo.

Are you all right?

You're here.

We knocked, but the door was opened.

Don't worry about that.

You're here. That's what matters.

Have a seat. Please sit down.

I tested my product last night.

I'm sorry for the mess.

- You said... - Please sit here.

that you were planning to expand your factory with investment funds.

It was all a lie, right?

It wasn't a lie.

I swear that on my company's reputation. It's true.

Hey.

Thank you for calling Stove Corporation.

I said I will deliver them soon.

What? All of our employees left the company?

Who spread that ridiculous rumor?

I'm going to rip the tongue out of...

I'll deliver them soon.

Just wait.

I'm sorry.

I'm too busy today.

That's okay. Please take care of your business.

I have to drive to Cheongju and Gwangju with these.

Gosh.

All the sales employees quit because I told them to go on delivery.

It's almost impossible to find employees these days.

Yet I hear people are desperate to find a job on the news every day.

Well...

I know I shouldn't ask you for this,

but could you please help me out since you're here?

My gosh. Please, Ms. Koo.

They're asking for my products. I really should have them delivered.

Please do me a favor, Su Hyuk.

Think that you're saving my life.

Where should we go?

Su Hyuk!

We'll help you out since we're here.

What a surprise.

I thought you were sulking.

Let's go for lunch together. It's on me.

I'm sorry. I have plans.

- Is it important? - Yes.

Ms. Lee, why are you calling me?

I hope I'm not interrupting you.

Can you spare me a minute?

I'm in the cafe across your office.

Of course, I can. I'm free.

Sure. I'll be there shortly. Please wait.

Hey, Do Hyun. You told me you had plans.

Something just came up.

I'm not in the mood to eat with you lately.

Bye.

Gosh. Seriously.

Here.

What's this?

It's nothing special.

I made some dishes that you would like.

Try them.

You did?

I really missed your dishes.

I feel so grateful for what you've done.

However, this is all I can do to repay your kindness.

We agreed to forget about that.

If you keep going on like this, I'll take it back.

Gosh, no. You can't do that.

You know I'm a hothead.

What dishes did you make?

They're just side dishes...

I made deep-fried kelp, leek fritter, and...

Deep-fried kelp?

Deep-fried kelp is my favorite.

My mom used to make this when I was little.

Is that so?

Yes.

In fact, it's a lot of work to make this.

I don't make it even for my children that often, but for you...

Oh, my.

Make sure you eat breakfast.

Don't drink coffee on an empty stomach.

I don't usually eat breakfast,

but as you're telling me this for my own health,

I'll do it. It's not a big deal.

I'll do it.

Thank you so much.

Thank you for the food.

I'm sorry. Are you okay?

Does it look like I'm okay?

(Lovers in Bloom)

- I want to marry her. - Tae Jin.

Whatever he says, don't let him sway you.

I can't give up on her.

When I think of my mom, I can't approve of it.

Why did you make so much food?

Chili fritter, boiled lotus root, and...

- Have you heard of Mr. Tall? - Mr. Tall?

He's not a weird person. He's a good man.

My mom went to the restaurant where your mom works?

You're back early.

Who is she?
