When My Love Blooms

Jae Hyeon♡Ji Soo
will love each other for a million years. 1995.5.12

The most beautiful, happiest time of our lives for a million years

Sunbae,

we should really end things between us now.

Even though so much time has passed,

the fact that we still regret and long for each other,

I think it's because we never properly broke up.

So, a real breakup.

Let's have a perfect goodbye.

I can't do that, Ji Soo.

I want to protect you.

It's not because I feel guilty,

and it's not because of regret or some sort of hope.

And it's not that I wished to have protected you.

I want to protect you.

And because of this one thing...

Like you did in the past.

Only twenty-something years out of a million years?

We've only just taken one step. We can't end things now.

I know why you made the choice that you made.

You made that choice because of me, so I'm going to make it right.

You were holding me hostage without me even realizing it.

You should have been more careful if you were going to do greater things.

You know what kind of world we live in.

You're going to need to stop what you're doing.

I don't have any plans to do that.

The video. You can release it to the world.

Are you sure it'll be okay? You're still under investigation.

I don't care.
Lee Se Hoon - L&J Law Firm

I have something to gain from this as well.

Take the child from the mother who committed adultery.

And Ji Soo who lost her child, I will take her.

A long time ago, Jae Hyeon

said he had lost something.

He had really sad eyes.

That something is you, Yoon Ji Soo, right?

It must be true if you're not denying it.

I'm curious.

Why did you guys break up when you loved each other so much?

You guys are taking turns making fools out of us.

It's as if you guys planned this, saying you'll give yourselves up for each other.

If you loved each other so terribly, why did you break up?

I've told you my intentions, so I'll excuse myself now.

I left him.

Can I ask why you did that?

My life crumbled to pieces in an instant.

My anger and despair was so intense and on edge

that I felt like I would hurt him, too.

I'm not too sure, but if it was that hard, couldn't you share your suffering with him?

If I shared my suffering, instead of the suffering becoming less,

we would have both become monsters.

Let me go to that bar you run.

Are you sure you'll be okay?
Episode 8

You can't hold your drink.

Why do you remember stuff like that?

Because you were my idol.

I liked you, you were cool, and I wanted to be like you.

I only joined the student movement because you did it.

I didn't care whether the world changed or not.

But what you're doing now

only looks greedy, selfish, and lingering on regret.

I decided to intervene in Ji Soo's life.

What are you going to do?

She can't be with that other guy, but

she also can't be with you, Hyung.

So it can only be you?

It doesn't have to be me

as long as Ji Soo becomes happy.

Yeah.

It's what you and I both want for her, but it's so difficult.

Hyung,

did you mean what you said in front of Lee Se Hoon, earlier?

I meant it, Yeong Woo.

If that situation arises, I'm going to take Ji Soo.

Family Relations Certificate

You haven't forgotten about tomorrow, right? And you know what to prepare?

I know why you made the choice that you made.

And I know that it's a choice you made for me, so I'll be the one to make it right.

Where are you right now? I'll come to you.

Jae Hyeon Sunbae

Don't do it, Ji Soo.

If you make another foolish decision,

I'm going to make a foolish decision, too.

If you move forward with the remarriage,

I'm going to release the video to the public.

You're going to lose everything you have.

I'll probably lose everything, yes.

I might get rocks thrown at me on the streets.

But Ji Soo, try to remember

why we broke up.

But do you really know how to cook?
May 1995

I started cooking for myself since middle school

because my mom and dad were both at work.

You had to be mature at an early age.

Kids who are alone tend to mature quicker.

It makes me feel kind of bad, but

I also think it's good too. How should we raise our kids in the future?

- Are you okay?
- We would like to interrupt for just a moment.

You are Han Jae Hyeon, correct?

You are currently on the wanted list for disobeying a summons to your mandatory military enlistment.

On May 20th, 1995 at 11:05 am you are being arrested.

Grab onto him gently. You're hurting him!

Don't worry and just go home.

It's because of me. I think my Dad did this.

You said you deferred your enlistment.

Take care of my things that are at the persimmon tree house.

They're expensive, so don't just take them and run away okay?

Just for a short time. I'll see you later after a very short time.

Yoo Jae Ha - The Starry Night

♫ Your voice reaches me under the starry night. ♫

♫ I wish to turn into swarming grains of pollen, ♫

♫ I would like to sit atop your flower ♫

♫ Feeling your breath while staring at the night sky ♫

♫ While floating gently in a small pirogue ♫

♫ I would like to travel to your lake. ♫

♫ If you were to leave my side, I'll follow you wherever, I'll follow you to the end of the road ♫

Marriage Registration
Address Change Registration

Yoon Ji Soo

Where are you?

I'm sorry for going back on my words,

but I don't think I can go back to you.

Instead of being forced by anyone,

I want to face it myself, whether it be someone or fate.

Is your marriage registration finished?

Lee Se Hoon

Han Jae Hyeon came looking for me.

Did he come knowing something?

He knew about the video and the fact that we planned to remarry.

So?

If the video is released, he said that he will take Yoon Ji Soo.

Also, it seems he's done something to Yoon Ji Soo.

She said that she can't remarry me.

I found out what you lost.

If you ended up finding it,

I was going to congratulate you in a big way, but I can't bring myself to do it.

But, why aren't you saying anything

when you know that I was the one who gave him the video?

Because I'm the one who is in the wrong. So, Seo Kyeong—

I said I lost her, on purpose.

That I lost her. Not that I was abandoned.

Mom Mom

Jang Seo Kyeong

If you're thrown away once, you blame the person who did it to you,

but if you're thrown away twice, you start to blame yourself.

So... don't throw me away.

It really hurts my self-esteem.

The food is all done. Please come in and eat!

♫ Just bury them in your heart ♫

♫ Words you wanted to say ♫

Did my wife put these here by chance?

She told me to throw them away.

I'll throw them out myself.

Kim Hyeon Shik, Zoo, One Day
(old Korean songs)

Do you think I can find a cassette tape player for these?

I'm sure a quick internet search will work. The 90's trends are quite popular these days.

Can you find one for me?

Yes, I'll do that.

But I guess you also go online to Tapgol Park?

Where is that?

It's... not a place, but a website.

A website where you can watch music shows from the 90's and relive nostalgic times.

Hey, you're dissing me, aren't you?

No, not at all. How could I?

I know what kids say these days. "Keuk-hyum."
(Korean abbreviation meaning extremely displeasing)

Is that funny?

Kim Hyeon Shik

I don't think you would have done it,

but I'm wondering what happened.

I decided not to return to him.

What a relief.

I think it would be best to not see you either.

I want to protect you.

That's my sincerity and my goal.

Whether I can see you or not, I'm going to try my best.

I will try my best to distance myself from you.

Garam International Middle School

Yeong Min.

You look like Leon.
(T/N: from the movie, "Leon: The Professional")

What's a Leon?

He's just a really cool guy.

They gave one to everyone at school. I want to grow it at home.

What about we grow it somewhere bigger?

If it's stuck in the pot, it can't extend its roots.

Sounds good.

It would've been nice if you could live in a bigger house, right?

Like the house you went to see with Dad.

Are we really going to live with Dad?

Yeong Min, can you forgive me just this once?

I did something bad.

I told you we would go live with Dad without even asking for your opinion,

and then I went back on my words, saying I couldn't.

So we're not living with him?

- I'll forgive you.
- Is that really okay?

I think not living together is a bit better anyway.

Why?

It's something you don't like. That's why you split up.

That's why you said to live together, and then decided you couldn't.

I know you're in middle school now, but aren't you still being too reasonable about this?

Actually, it's an emotional response. I felt scared and uncomfortable, too.

My baby is growing up too fast.

Is it really because he's an only child?

Leon the movie - original sound track

February, 1995
I must've cried too much during that movie. I can't see.

Sure. Take your sunglasses off.

It's really so dark.

Did you really cry?

Of course!

My heart hurt because of my brother, Leon.

My brother, who is so terribly unlucky.

Mathilda's last line was so sad.

What was that again?

She replants their plant in the park and says,

"We will be okay here, Leon."

If the place is here, we'll be okay.

Our Ji Soo is quite good at 'English speaking,' huh?

- That's listening, not speaking.
- Forget it.

On that note, shall we draw inspiration from our brother Leon

and drink not milk, but makgeolli (Korean rice wine) which is similar?

You said you would leave after watching the movie.

Am I a plane? Why do you keep telling me to take off?

You think that's funny? What a horrible joke.

There's something that I want.

Hey, let's go drink makgeolli! What is there to buy?

What is it?

Leon.

You can't become Mathilda just because you're holding a plant.

Someone as pretty as she might show up only once in a hundred years.

Ji Soo is way prettier.

Those punks. Do you think I'll be envious?

Of course, I would. Totally.

Why are we planting it here?

This is a bit of a special place.

What's special about it?

God is here, Mary is here,

and a lot of priests and believers as well.

I guess at least it won't be lonely.

Let's water it.

♫ Perhaps, someday ♫

June 1995

♫ we will remember ♫

♫ The promises we kept hidden within our faded memories ♫

I finally moved Leon to somewhere more spacious.

Without any hesitation, I put him at that place.

"We will be okay here, Leon."

If the place is here, we'll be okay.

♫ but appearing suddenly ♫

To: Recruit Han Jae Hyeon
Chuncheon Reserve 102, Division 15
♫ the longing that is you ♫

♫ If we can return to that time, then I would tell you ♫

♫ If we can reach that some day, that some time ♫

It looks like this is the right one, but also not...

♫ Someday, far in the future, even after time has passed ♫

♫ You are no longer a memory, but my everyday ♫

Is this something to feel disappointed by?

Good night, Ji Soo.

Bye, Sunbae.

Jang Seo Kyeong!

I'm glad you came. I wanted to have a drink with you, Dad.

Why are you like this again?

This is all because of you.

Why? What did I do?

My love life is like yours because I take after you.

Mom, who never smiled in front of you,

smiled once at that amusement park.

She smiled so beautifully.

Just like Mom, the ice-cold Jae Hyeon

told that woman he can leave everything and go to her.

That woman?

He must have smiled for her.

Every day.

So beautifully.

What about Seo Kyeong?

She said she doesn't want breakfast because she drank a lot yesterday.

Can we talk?

I've said everything I wanted to say.

I can't act like everything's okay when I did something wrong.

The video won't get released,

so you won't have to be responsible for that woman.

Nothing changes.

Leave now. I feel nauseous.

You were assigned to the distribution center?

Yeah.

Isn't it tiring?

It is tiring. I went from being a cashier to heavy lifting at the distribution center.

Is this like a retaliation assignment?

Probably.

At least, I like that I was able to apply to the labor union because I became a full-time employee.

That's a relief.

How about you? Are you doing well?

I'm doing really well.

Still busy?

It's harder for people like us if we're not busy.

That's true.

Would it be alright for me to ask you a favor?

I'm part of the cultural department of our labor union and we're holding a cultural festival,

but we don't have anyone to play the keyboard.

So I thought of you.

Is it okay even if I'm not a member of the union?

Yes, it's fine. We often recruit from outside.

- I'll do it.
- But it won't pay much.

You don't need to pay me.

That's not okay!

I've always wanted to donate my skills.

Did you want me to buy you some more food?

Prosecution investigation officers are in the lobby with a warrant for a second search and seizure.

They also have a summons for you, Vice President.

It seemed really intense. Is something going wrong?

If they want me to go, I'll go. Diligently and sincerely.

I'm more nervous because you're so calm. What will you do if they put you in jail again?

Stop overreacting and make the appropriate preparations.

The real game starts now.

Hyeong Seong Group Labor Union Cultural Festival

What is this sound?

They're holding a labor union cultural festival right outside.

They're really trying to get on the chairman's nerves...

♫Let's live like a rock♫

♫Even if harsh winds and rain blow around♫

♫We won't waver to any temptations♫

♫Let's live like a rock♫

♫What sways in the wind are reeds with thin roots ♫

What are they going on about now?

Can't you call the police to take them all away?

They got approval from the ward office.

- But Yoon Ji Soo is there, Chairman.
- Who?

The Vice President's woman you told me to look into.

Oh, why is that woman there?

I'll look into it.

Which one? Where?

The one playing the keyboard.

She doesn't look ordinary even from far away.

♫ Call me when you need someone
I'll always come running ♫

♫ Daytime is good, night time is good ♫

Twentieth Floor

Cancel

Thirtieth Floor

Vice President, I need to go to the twentieth floor, not the thirtieth—

Oh, I'm going to the thirtieth floor. With you, Department Manager.

I noticed you taking pictures of the labor union festival.

Yes. The chairman wanted to see them.

Can I see them, too? I need to know which employees are taking part in the labor union.

I'll send it to you by email.

I would have to see it now.

Department Manager?

Delete

Deleting

Ji Soo.

You don't have to avoid me. I came for work-related reasons today.

As a member of the board, I want to ask you not to take part in events like today.

I'm not an employee, but even if I was, you can't tell me that as a member of the board.

Why are you there when you aren't even an employee?

I did it as a favor for my previous coworkers and I enjoyed it.

I always felt bad because I felt like I ran away by myself like a coward.

Like I wanted a better world for free.

This isn't much, but at least I'm paying something.

On top of that, it's the thing I can do best.

Instead of being a keyboard warrior that blabbers online with their fingers,

I'm going to be a real keyboard warrior, fighting with piano keys.

You said you're busy making a living, how are you going to be a warrior on top of that?

I'm only able to do this much because I'm busy making a living.

And I'm ashamed of it, too.

So you're still there?

Because there are still people there.

So it wasn't that people weren't there...

I just turned a blind eye.

How is school, Joon Seo? Is it fun?

Well, it's just, whatever.

It's no fun?

It's just a bit annoying.

Why? Is something wrong?

The facilities are the best, and the teachers have been hired among the best, too. What's the problem?

Grandpa, didn't you know? Some jerk threw a chair at me.

How could you hide something so grave from me?

I'm sorry, Chairman.

It's not even like he hit someone. He got hit.

At the time, I tried to make things widely public and punish them properly,

but Joon Seo's parents came and said they would be generous and let things go quietly.

Seo Kyeong said that?

His mother wasn't willing to compromise,

but his father said this could absolutely not go to the school violence committee.

Love Letter

Hello?

Hello, I'm Hyeon Woo's mom.

Are you coming to parent's observation day at school tomorrow?

I do want to go, but I'm a bit uncomfortable about something.

I think Joon Seo's dad met with her because he's so soft-hearted.

He had no other choice but to be kind to her since she was begging him, and she was his junior in college.

Oh my goodness. How could something like that...?

It's embarrassing, but I am telling you because I was frustrated.

I'm glad you told me.

I'm not much myself, but I am looking over the other moms.

This is truly a worst-case scenario.

My face is flushed.

Anyway, I don't think I'll be able to go. I don't feel comfortable to see Yeong Min's mom.

How can you say such a thing?

Why do you have to avoid her? She's the one that did wrong.

I'll take care of it.

I can't ever forgive these types of things.

If rumors get out, the school's image will falter, too.

You're getting another prosecutorial investigation?

What if you end up eating rice with beans in prison again?

Are you some kind of brand ambassador for rice with beans?

This is something I'd anticipated ever since I envisioned my plans. That I could go to prison again.

At the time, I wasn't afraid of going to prison at all.

It's only difficult going the first time.

Right now, I'm afraid.

What is it this time?

I'm scared Ji Soo will disappear.

That again, she'll have to suffer through something alone while I'm gone.

Is it possible to face something like that twice in life?

Why are you guys so pitiful?

When you guys were together, it made me wonder how you two could even exist,

because you two were so precious.

Open Class Day for Parents Observation

You're here?

I'm glad you came.

- Yeong Min's mother.
- Yes?

Do you have some time?

- Why?
- We have some things to discuss.

The other moms are all there already.

Welcome, Yeong Min's mom.

We already ate, but you should order something.

I'm okay.

Alright then. We don't have much time anyway, so let's just get it over with.

It's not like I don't understand your situation, but there are still things you should and should not do.

I hate beating around the bush.

Okay, I'll get straight to the point.

How could you make a move on another parent from school?

- She made a move on someone?
- She really hit on a parent?

I heard you used that to stop the school's violence committee.

Sure you may have been desperate, but resolving things like that?

It's only a matter of time before the school's image is ruined once rumors start to float around.

If you want to call yourself a mom, you should at least have some dignity.

How can you look Yeong Min in the eyes after doing something like that?

He might already know. Kids are quite good at picking up on things.

I heard it's a lie that your husband is a famous lawyer in Gangnam.

You even protested after getting fired from some supermarket.

How could you trick us all like that and not offer an ounce of apology?

If you have something to say, say it, instead of just sitting there like a mute who ate honey.
(T/N: Idiom, someone unable to express their thoughts.)

I guess you didn't find out about the "red mark" (criminal record) on my family register.

A criminal record for assault causing injury.

It was at a place just like this. How nostalgic.

Are you threatening us right now?

How dare you say such an abhorrent thing here?

I understand you're trying to act like Jang Seo Kyeong's maid to reap some benefits for yourself,

but you picked the wrong target.

Maid? You—

Don't bite me. I'll bite you right back.

None of the stories you're making up are true, and if you spread false rumors to your children,

I'll draw another red mark to my name and go to jail again.

Oh my goodness.

Well, it doesn't seem like she was the only one attacked.

Prosecutor's Office

- Turn off the recording.
- Yes.

Today was a bit quieter on your way over, right?

You called me so suddenly, there was nobody on the ground floor

yet.

Whenever we ask you to come, we do everything to maintain confidentiality,

but this is a place where there's constant talking.

There must be a lot of birds and mice.
(Korean phrase meaning there are always people watching and listening)

Vice President,

things have become quite complicated.

It'll be difficult to protect you as the anonymous whistleblower.

In our country's laws, there are a lot of loopholes around whistleblowers.

The net we're using to catch the fish is big, but so is the mesh of the net itself.

So it will not be easy to catch a large fish.

This is different from what you told me before. So it must not be your idea.

It appears that the fish are still a bit stronger than the net.

So it seems like in order to catch a big fish, we need to get into the water ourselves.

Are you talking about something other than the borrowed-name shares?

There are more issues to borrowed-name shares than the taxes and shares itself.

As we've told you before, we have been looking into things as well,

but there are too many things that have been hidden and buried, and the ocean is as deep as it is wide.

I'll help you.

Vice President, I'm not someone that sees only what I want to see.

I see everything as it exists.

After I've seen it, I move according to the rules.

If we go any deeper than this, it'll become more difficult for you as well.

It can't be helped. This is something that required my firm resolve from the start.

You're... quite strong.

I have many things to sort out. So let us get started.

Thank you.

So these borrowed-name funds.

Yes.

- Please say a word!
- Do you have a word to share?

We are ashamed of you!

Eradicate the corrupt conglomerates!
Tax evasion expert!

Was your wealth not enough that you used borrowed-names?

Imprison Han Jae Hyeon to Achieve Economic Democracy

Han Jae Hyeon, Vice President of Hyeong Seong Distribution, Arrest Warrant Decision Next Week

Five years ago, during the labor strike at Hyeong Seong Steel,
[Hyeong Seong Mart Vice President Han Jae Hyeon sued by Father of Laborer Who Committed Suicide]

former employee Mr. Kwon Hyeok Soo committed suicide after a labor dispute with the company. His bereaved family members

filed charges today against Han Jae Hyeon, Vice President of Hyeong Seong Mart.

Kwon Hyeok Soo's death was not an incidental accident arisen from personal reason.

We intend to reveal that this tragic sacrifice was a result of unfair labor practices on the company's side.

Five years ago, Han Jae Hyeon, who indiscriminately committed inhumane layoffs and called them rational business decisions,

is the focus of who we suspect bears the blame.
[Lawyer Lee Se Hoon]

The attorney who filed the suit against you is Lee Se Hoon.

Perhaps this is each person's "best effort?"

What day of the week is it today?

Wednesday.

March 1995
Labor freedom, labor freedom...

Suppress them! Suppress them!

Suppress them!

The body of Christ.

Amen.

The body of Christ.

The body of Christ.

The body of Christ.

You can take it and just say "amen."

Amen.

May Christ be with you.

Follow that person, please.

The body of Christ.

Amen.

Asylum was trampled.

Asylum?

It's Latin for 'sanctuary.'

It's a sanctuary where wrongdoers and runaways cannot be captured.

Although they were all captured today.

Then I will become your asylum.

Come to me at any time, and I will hide yo= so no one can take you away.

"We will be okay here."

If it's this place, we will be okay.

You are making good use of that line.

The body of Christ.

The Leon you planted was still there.

Someone kept looking after it I guess.

That's fascinating. How can that be?

Actually that's not Leon.

It's not, right? No wonder.

I planted it recently.

Deliberately, at this place.

I had forgotten what this place was.

Because it is an asylum,

where the world's eyes and feet cannot touch...

So, for just a moment...

I was afraid to be held back by the days of the past if I turned around,

so I walked diligently forward without ever looking back.

But once I stopped, I realized it had always been this place.

Perhaps I walked all those years to reach this place.

Now, my legs hurt,

so for today, I'll just stay here.

If it's this place,

we will be okay.

When My Love Blooms: The Moment When Living Becomes a Flower

I can't be sure

what is real and what is right.

Let me confirm for you,

what terrible things Han Jae Hyeon did.

It's about survival, so it's all the more something to decide for yourself.

I think it's because you've changed, Sunbae.

You resemble him a lot.

Haven't you heard about me from your father?

You said you were curious about why I left, didn't you?
