What is it you want to say?

If your conviction...

isn't to turn a blind eye to your loved one's wrongdoings,

please stop Jae Hyun.

You're the only one who can do it.

(Uncontested Divorce Form)

(Applicant: Han Jae Hyun)

If you stop Jae Hyun,

I'll leave him.

For good.

I'm sorry but...

I won't stop Jae Hyun.

Fine, then.

Go on being the mistress and cheater.

Forever.

By the way.

Why does your justice...

not apply to me and my father?

Do rich people...

deserve to have theirs taken?

It won't be taken.

If Jae Hyun is the person he was,

he won't take anything from anyone.

You must mock me.

For fear that I'd lose my money,

I offered to give up on my love.

I wouldn't have been any different.

My dad,

mom, and sister.

For my family,

I'd have done everything too.

That's why...

I'll do everything until the end.

I need your support.

First,

you'll wonder with what right I stand here to say this.

(Hyung Sung Group's Vice-president Han Jae Hyun)

The chairman's son-in-law, borrowed-name accounts,

the Scissorhands nickname,

and the past few months of my personal life.

I know how little people think of me,

and I believe...

all that is something I must deal with.

But what I want to tell you today...

regards Hyung Sung Group,

which is my and your workplace.

As you all know, next week,

Hyung Sung Holdings will host an extraordinary general meeting.

That very day,

to make a new Hyung Sung,

I need your support.

Listen!

Figure out how many people...

lost their Hyung Sung jobs before you talk about...

- a new Hyung Sung... - 547 people.

137 from Hyung Sung Supermarket.

292 from Hyung Sung Steel.

35 from Hyung Sung Corporation.

83 from Hyung Sung Steelworks.

The phone is turned off.

Call Director Hwang and Chief Lee.

Okay.

The phone is turned off. Transferring to voicemail.

Try Lawyer Kim.

Okay.

- It's Jang Seo Kyung. - Hello.

How is my dad?

The review of legality for confinement we applied for...

opens tomorrow.

How does it look?

Not too good.

In the new Hyung Sung, ownership and management will be separated.

At the extraordinary general meeting, I'll demand...

Chairman Jang and President Jang be fired.

And I myself,

will resign...

at the extraordinary general meeting.

All of Hyung Sung's subsidiaries...

will be managed by professional executives and boards...

and will be under constant scrutiny of...

an independent law-abiding monitor.

At the extraordinary general meeting,

details will be institutionalized so no one can change them.

For that new beginning,

I need the 8.97 percent of shares that you own.

I need your support.

(Final Episode)

Young Min. How did you learn to play?

I watched you play.

That lady you met. Was that Jun Seo's mom?

Yes.

Is something wrong?

Prosecutors are investigating Jun Seo's grandpa.

It's about that.

Young Min.

Give Mom a hug.

It's low.

What is?

My battery of love. Charge me.

Mom. That's an old man's joke.

I'm not an old man.

(Vice-president Han Jae Hyun)

Mr. Han.

What's going on?

You'll give up your right to management?

Let's sit and talk.

The reporter was mistaken, right?

No, it's as you read.

How could you do that without talking to us?

I'm aware you're against creating a new Hyung Sung Group.

Because I didn't invest a fortune to achieve...

legality and economic justice.

You two have an option.

Help as an investor...

to create the new Hyung Sung,

or sell the shares...

that you accumulated right now when the price is at its highest.

Why are you doing this so suddenly?

After all that you've been through.

It has finally become your time to shine.

I shared your ideas once.

I wanted to replace Chairman Jang,

and I wanted to enjoy the power and comfort that title provided.

But then someone asked me...

if it were right for me to...

take that place.

(Vice-president Han Jae Hyun Gives Up Right to Management)

(Sun Hee)

Han Jae Hyun's sudden announcement caused all sorts of crazy.

The timing oddly overlaps with...

when Chairman Jang was indicted.

Everyone's wondering if it was VP Han's plan all along.

Cold-blooded Scissorhands.

Jang San's loyal hound.

People wonder...

how he changed overnight.

I think I know the answer.

What is it?

The answer? It's Yoon Ji Su.

I don't know exactly what happened between you two,

But the Ji Su I know...

is more than capable of playing such a role.

- Sun Hee. - Yes?

Do you want another coffee?

Or chicken and beer?

Hey, you, the man with the broad shoulders.

Do you want something?

I'm sorry. I'm waiting for someone.

Are you waiting for my daughter?

She's not your daughter.

It's you. I saw you with our Ji Su last time.

"Our Ji Su"?

I'd like you to sit down. My neck's starting to hurt.

Okay, then.

So,

what's your relationship with our Ji Su?

I'm her senior from university.

That means you're very close.

Jae Hyun.

You're back.

Ji Su.

She's really nice.

I asked her to be my mom and she refused.

She called you her daughter.

- She did? - Yes.

She's so typically aloof.

Do you know why I waited here?

I know what happened today.

This was where it all began.

"There still are people there."

Won't you commend me?

Come closer.

Okay.

Darn you. This is a compliment.

- Move. - Get out of the way.

Did you hear that Han Jae Hyun gave up rights to management?

How do you think the review will go?

Did you embezzle and evade taxes?

- Say something! - Give us a comment!

- We'd like a comment! - Do you have anything to say?

- Speak up! - Say something!

Hyung Sung Group's Chairman Jang San...

applied for a review of legality for confinement...

a day after his indictment.

The court denied it today.

- A possible flight risk... - Jun Seo's grandpa?

Destruction of evidence...

- His crimes are grave... - Yes.

and they decided he must be detained.

Jun Seo must be suffering.

Last night, Chairman Jang was taken to Seoul Detention Center.

The court also denied the confinement review...

of director Hwang Hak Su and Chief Lee Myung Geun...

who were arrested with Chairman Jang.

(Hyung Sung Holdings Extraordinary General Meeting)

President Jang.

Speak.

The result of the vote is out.

The bill for the dismissal of you and your father...

was passed.

And Mr. Han resigned.

The employee stock ownership association and...

minority shareholders supported Mr. Han.

(Court)

Through the proceedings,

we clearly determined that the arguments of Jang San,

Hwang Hak Su, and Lee Myung Geun...

directly oppose the objective evidence.

(Defendants)

The corrupt defendants colluded with politicians,

portraying a long history of crime and corruption within management.

For illegal management and to maximize the owner family's profit,

they went directly against our law and order...

and committed organized crimes in the same manner...

for dozens of years.

Other than this, there were as many as 42 cases...

which had already expired and could not be handled...

in this court proceeding.

Among them...

was a case that goes against labor and humanity...

in which two employees were slandered...

for breaking up the union, taking bribes, and spying for...

the owner family, causing them to take their lives.

Despite that, the defendants...

outright denied the charges throughout the trial,

made endless excuses,

and even gave false statements.

They even mocked this court proceeding,

once again causing anguish to the people who followed...

the investigation and trial.

Your Honor.

This case...

is a valuable opportunity to uphold our law and justice.

We can also create an example for the honest, law-abiding businessmen.

For defendants Jang San, Hwang Hak Su, and Lee Myung Geun,

with a fair sentence,

please also hand down a severe punishment.

A day like today calls for a drink.

For completely different reasons.

Other than the fact that you won't run the company,

nothing for you has changed.

You and your father still are the majority shareholders.

All the shares I own...

will go to the nonprofit foundation I'll set up.

I'll put it in writing that under no circumstance can it be used to...

challenge your ownership.

If Hyung Sung is run properly,

things will get much better.

I'm not giving it to you because I was moved.

(Uncontested Divorce Form)

(Applicant: Han Jae Hyun)

Before you met with the employees,

I met Yoon Ji Su.

I still don't know you well,

but she had...

this confidence in you.

And...

at my dad's first trial today,

I thought of a lot of things.

I thought of you and your father too.

It's only natural, but I'll raise Jun Seo.

That's what he said he wants.

I'll keep in touch with him.

I have...

one last question.

Why did you marry me?

Because I threatened to kill myself?

Or out of pity for me?

It wasn't purely pity.

I'd lost my love and beliefs.

I pushed myself into a world of torture...

as if I didn't deserve to be happy.

You comforted me.

I could smile for a while.

I thought...

I could fall in love if I tried.

That goes for me too.

I thought if I tried,

you would become mine, like the other guys I met.

But then,

you were different from them.

That's why I agreed to marry you.

I'd like you to be happy.

Don't worry.

I will be happy.

Mr. Lee Se Hun the lawyer?

You can leave.

I'm sorry for asking you to come.

Pardon?

The assailant.

Mr. Kwon Pil Ho withdrew his statement.

What do you mean?

He initially said that...

he stabbed Mr. Han because of your advice,

and that you told him where to find Mr. Han...

on the day of the attack.

But now he changed his statement to say that...

he did it all on his own.

In cases like this, because we can't find further evidence,

the statements of those concerned take priority.

You must know that.

Do you have...

anything to say on the contrary pertaining to this case?

Of course, we don't close cases based only on...

the assailant's statement.

We received information on you,

and we know the circumstances under which this happened.

Despite that,

we've decided to close this case.

The biggest reason for that...

is that Mr. Han the victim...

petitioned that Mr. Kwon Pil Ho be let off.

In my career as a detective,

I've never read such a long letter...

from a victim asking his stabber be let go.

And, even though I hadn't even asked,

he said many times that you were not involved...

before he left.

Just by watching and listening,

we can tell what's really going on.

But we decided to respect the two men's wishes.

As you know, the law sees things too.

That's all I have to say.

Sorry for bothering you.

I couldn't forgive you.

If Jae Hyun had died that day,

you'd have ruined...

the lives of Jae Hyun and Mr. Kwon.

You'd also have hurt Young Min more than he could handle.

But Jae Hyun survived, so should I cover it up?

Without anyone knowing, without the world knowing,

would it be okay if I covered it up?

I thought and wondered.

But I couldn't do that.

Because you're Young Min's father.

And Young Min will have to see you.

Thinking that you'd go on to see Young Min...

without paying the price,

or showing any remorse or guilt...

I felt afraid.

I know why the police let you go.

I also know Jae Hyun insisted you weren't involved.

I want only one thing.

Because we can't change the fact that you're Young Min's dad.

I need you to change.

I think you can change.

I said you seemed to be by the edge of a cliff.

I said I just wanted to stop you from falling over.

When I said that, you were a good person.

If you go back to being that person,

I'll consider forgiving you.

Young Min.

It's the day you're supposed to visit.

Yes.

Is something wrong?

I'm sorry, Young Min.

Dad's so foolish.

You didn't mean it when you said...

you wanted to live with me, right?

Dad's not as confident anymore.

Why?

Do you know...

you become more like your mom each day?

I think that...

one person like her is more than enough in your life.

Does it mean you regret meeting her?

It means I liked her...

so much that I couldn't give up.

Then, why did you break up with Mom?

Because I wasn't sure.

I wanted to check if she really...

liked me or not.

So I acted out and did a lot of bad things.

Stay by your mother's side.

You must stay with her, so she can smile.

And can you keep seeing me?

I will be the dad you will be proud of.

Okay.

(Jun Seo, I'll wait here until you come out.)

Jun Seo, I'll wait here until you come out.

The person you have reached is not available.

You will be directed to voicemail.

Is it boring?

Yes.

Should we have gone somewhere else?

Should we forget about fishing and go camping?

That's okay.

Jun Seo.

You hate me, right?

Yes.

I like your honesty.

But...

I can kind of understand...

that things have been hard for you.

Grandpa was harsh on you...

and you and Mom didn't get along.

Jun Seo.

Wherever you are, I'll always be your dad.

I'll always take your side.

Jun Seo, keep your mom safe.

I hope you will tell me everything...

whether it's good or bad.

I'll come see you every week.

But you have to behave, Jun Seo. Okay?

I told you I'll always side with you.

So if you misbehave,

I might...

have to go to prison again.

Let's continue to go fishing,

camping, and play basketball together.

I don't like fishing.

Is it that boring?

I love you, Jun Seo.

Me too.

Young Woo's bar?

Yes.

Why all of a sudden?

Dong Jin got an incentive and invited us to the bar.

Okay. I'll be there.

Okay. See you soon.

- Hey. - What?

(June 1994)

What's a good birthday present?

My birthday is still far off.

Not your birthday.

Ji Su's?

Take her to a buffet.

That's expensive.

Don't you have 1.5 dollars?

You can eat at a buffet with that?

The cafeteria. Have your pick.

Or if you want to take her out for a luxurious Western meal,

take her to the language school and eat pork cutlet.

You crazy jerk.

- Gosh. - Come on.

I don't know either. It's not like I have a girlfriend.

I'm sorry. My apologies.

So when is her birthday?

On the 29th.

It's around the corner.

Yes.

You don't have money. Just tell her something nice.

Or sing a song for her.

Hey, I'll teach you a song.

Is this what you're going to sing?

- For you - Be quiet.

- It was storming at the beach - It was storming at the beach

- When the waves calm down - When the waves calm down

- Will you come? - You missed the beat.

Will you cross the ocean for me?

But is that the only chord you can play?

- Forget it. - Practice, man.

- Okay? - Forget it.

Enjoy.

Eat it while it's still hot.

I know you don't have money. Why did you bring me here?

I like our cafeteria.

I have a lot of money.

If you don't eat it, I'll eat everything.

How is it? Is it good?

It's so good.

This is why people wait for their birthdays.

Eat some more.

Don't cry. It's really nothing.

I'll buy you a much better present later.

No.

I don't need a present.

You're my present. You didn't have to get me a present.

Take it.

Thank you.

I really didn't imagine you got me a present.

I'm not sure if I deserve this.

If I need to give you a present, equivalent to your value,

I need millions of dollars.

You were busy. When did you record all of them?

You said you liked listening to my singing.

More than you can imagine.

Can I listen to them now?

- Now? - Yes.

Then, let me use the restroom now.

Listen to them.

- Happy birthday. - Happy birthday, Ji Su.

Happy birthday, Ji Su.

Happy birthday to you.

You didn't even tell me.

Blow out the candles.

I'll blow them now.

Oh, right. My wish. I forgot to make a wish.

I'll make it now.

Ji Su!

- Hey, why did you do that to her? - Yes!

- Are you okay, Ji Su? - It hurts.

Hey.

- Hurry up. - Okay.

Happy birthday, beautiful.

Happy birthday, Ji Su.

I haven't wished you a happy birthday since 1994.

Happy birthday, Ji Su.

Shall we sing one more song for you?

Come here.

Blow out the candles and make a wish.

I can't do it.

I don't have a birthday.

Ji Su.

Your mom and sister died on your birthday.

You will remember them even more,

and it will be harder to forget them.

Perhaps, your mom and Ji Young...

might appreciate this more.

The candles are about to go out. Blow out the candles now.

You have to eat a lot too...

to make up for all those birthdays you missed.

You should get 20 years' worth of birthday presents from Jae Hyun.

If you don't blow them out now, Mr. Han will make my life hard.

Why me?

Hurry.

Happy birthday.

How did you get the photo?

I asked Young Min to help.

Back then, we all used roll films.

I told him to look for some roll films.

What if my dad threw them out?

I was going to Photoshop it.

Ji Su.

Just because something pains you,

you can't cut it out of your life.

You must tend it more often with more care.

If I look at their photo every day,

will I be able to meet my mom and Ji Young?

Yes, you will.

You'll always end up oversleeping.

I'm going to a department store with Mom to fix a watch.

- Shall I get their strawberry cake? - Up to you.

Get back early. Your dad will get mad again.

Yes, ma'am.

That brat. Look at her leaving without a proper goodbye.

I barely remember your face now!

Mom.

Ji Young.

Mom.

Mom.

Ji Young.

Mom, I'm here. Please look at me just once.

Ji Young.

Please look at me.

Please.

When did you write this?

When I was here the other day.

Let me write something too. Lend me a pen.

Sure.

You didn't identify the subject, you know.

Is that so?

I still can see a lot of stars here.

I guess they were keeping...

their places instead of leaving. How nice of them.

They shine and are unbelievably adorable.

They are just like you.

It was hard keeping your place, wasn't it?

It wouldn't have been easy.

Well, my legs did go a bit numb.

Do you remember what I said when we were here?

Of course, I remember everything. Even the order.

What did I say?

"Because I feel bad."

"Because I love you."

Not that.

But that was the highlight.

I'm sorry. I was only trying to help.

It's because of the tear gas.

Oh.

They went that way, so go this way.

(Yoon Ji Su)

Take this.

They say it helps with tear gas if you put some under your eyes.

You smiled.

So that young college boy...

with those good-looking eyes was you?

I went there a few times after that,

but you weren't there, Yoon Ji Su.

Why didn't you tell me that?

I was embarrassed.

We had rallies every day as soon as school started,

and I was scared every day.

It was my first street rally, so I was even more scared that day.

So you cried because you were scared?

No, my eyes hurt.

I guess you liked me first, then.

No, that's not it.

Whatever.

I was only curious because you were silly and funny.

It's not like I liked you.

No way. I was so pretty back then.

Well, you were pretty.

How was I back then?

When you were a freshman or when I was a freshman?

Both.

When you were a freshman, I felt bad for the boy...

whose eyes I saw, but he was really cute.

And when I was a freshman,

you kept pretending to be brave, and that was cute too.

I forgot that your username used to be "Noir".

(Award Certificate, 1st Place, Kang Byeol)

I'll be heading off now. Thanks, Ms. Kim.

All right. See you, ma'am.

Sure.

We need to check on the after-school garden...

at Gyerim Elementary School in Sumin-dong next week.

And from Tuesday to Thursday,

there's the English speech contest in Dueul-ri, North Chungcheong.

On Friday, we come back to Seoul and... One moment.

we have the fifth session of...

"The Exciting World of Coding" at the Dongseong-dong community center.

I was wanting to talk about that.

In order to make it even more fun,

I think it will be great to have...

a wooden robot that will move according to the children's codes.

Yes, if we have something like what Love Letter suggested,

we will be able to show them what they can do with coding,

so it will be easy to explain.

You respond so well, Candy.

Speaking of...

Gosh, I see a storm coming.

Why don't you be our wooden robot, Running Man?

Mr. Han... I mean, Love Letter,

we have Candy, Anne of Green Gables, and John Snow.

Why do I have to be the robot?

I'm old now, so my body isn't what it used to be.

You're not old.

Thanks.

Yes, sir.

My body always responds to Love Letter's...

"Thanks" code.

A lot of people misunderstand when they hear...

the term, "Music Psychotherapy".

Some may think that it's therapy...

where we find out which piece of Mozart...

is effective for autism.

But, I'm sure you all know now that it's not like that.

You're really amazing, though.

- What do you mean? - You got your bachelor's degree...

in such a short time and even got into grad school.

It was my dream, so I worked really hard.

And there's one more thing.

- What else? - You're incredibly popular.

You're one of the top three beauties of this school.

They have no idea about your age.

Who are the other two? I need to see what they look like.

Should I make them see you at the back of the building?

You do that.

We are fully prepared, so they won't be able to refute.

Even the property division was concluded well,

so both his pocket and his heart will be empty.

Please be quiet.

Yes, ma'am. I apologize.

- Take care, ma'am. - Goodbye, ma'am.

Don't give up child support.

It doesn't matter if he has money or not,

or if it's filthy money or not.

It's your right.

Thank you. I don't know what to say.

You're even doing this for free.

I have sinned too much to be thanked.

That's Attorney Lee Se Hun.

I heard he quit his law firm...

and is taking divorce cases free of charge.

Gosh, what is this feeling?

I somehow feel like the loser.

How are you? I'm doing great.

I'm at the park, walking Mond and Cow.

Are you? They're so cute.

Let me see them sometime.

I'll be taking care of my babies,

so you mind your own business. I know you're busy.

All right.

Oh my gosh.

I'm so sorry. Gosh...

It's all right.

You don't look all right. I'll pay for the damage.

No one will notice if I carry them, so you can go.

Come on.

I'll help you carry one of them.

They look heavy.

It's all right.

Only one of your arms got stained.

I told you, it's all right.

You don't all right.

Your dogs look uncomfortable too.

You're making me uncomfortable.

Then...

Where do you live?

What?

I'll take you home.

Why?

Your hands are tied.

I have a car too.

Then... At least give me your number.

I'm finally heading off to get some oil on my body.

Good for you. I wish I can go too.

You're busy. You have classes, piano school,

and everyone wants to take lessons from you.

At least send me a lot of pictures.

I'll have to settle with that.

Well...

I don't know if I'll have the time for pictures.

We're here for a bit since it's Jun Seo's break.

I'm not planning on meeting anyone.

I'm busy, and I have a boyfriend.

He's incredibly handsome, and I'm all he has.

What is this?

There you are.

Yoon Ji Su.

Are you feeling better now?

Since we got back together.

We...

held up well, didn't we?

I told you, didn't I?

Thanks to those moments that were as pretty as flowers,

we could go on.

And I knew that we'd get back together.

Thank you.

For recognizing me even when I had changed.

I would have recognized you no matter how you had changed.

Since I always had my eyes on you all along.

I always wanted to give you a hug like this.

Thank you for holding up until now, Ji Su.

And you did amazingly well.

I won't be able to forget.

That was when our love bloomed...

And you were the flowers.

Your love still blooms now.

Since you are together.

By the way, Ji Su.

I thought we would have a sad ending,

but doesn't this seem like a happy ending?

It's totally a happy ending.

I'm so happy, I can't stop smiling.

In this world of seven billion people,

there are seven billion kinds of love that bloom.

That means everyone has a love that blooms.

When my love blooms.

There is no need to be sad...

that the moment when life turns into a flower...

hasn't come yet or that it has already passed.

All of yesterday is in today...

and I am connected to you, as you are connected to us.

Life is always flowing by,

and the flower is always ready to bloom.

We shall fight

For freedom

♫ My fluttering heart waits for you ♫

♫ Scattering in our eyes ♫

♫ The ticklish whispers of summer emotions ♫

♫ The longing welled up in my forehead ♫

Jae Hyun, weren't we quite beautiful back then?

No.

We were incredibly beautiful.

(Thank you for watching "When My Love Blooms".)

(May all your love bloom for a million years.)
