The medicine box...

Where is it? Seo Woo said it was here.

Here it is.

What's this?

What's this?

I wonder who this is.

The first song he ever wrote.

When she told you thousands of times that she was suffering,

you ignored her.

What do you want to hear now?

You don't have the right.

Ji Su...

In Wook...

But no matter how much I tried to call her...

That's enough.

Do you have any idea what you did?

What you took from me,

what you crushed,

and what you ruined?

Do you know how my days have been...

or how my life has been?

Do you even fully understand what you did to me?

Don't force Seo Woo to do any favors for you.

After having gone through a hard time,

I've finally come to a conclusion.

My husband regrets what he did, and that hurts me.

His tears give me pain.

I want to tell him that it's okay...

and that he shouldn't suffer anymore.

(I want to be able to...)

I want to be able to give strength to my husband.

And now that I've come to a conclusion,

I'll be able to talk about this with a smile on my face...

once time passes by.

I'll contact you again once that day comes.

Consul Moon, I hope you stay healthy.

From Kim Ji Su.

Ji Su.

Who do you think...

told In Wook how you truly feel?

The person whom In Wook hurt the most.

It was Ha Won.

Ji Su.

I told him how you truly feel.

Now,

be in peace.

You weren't hurt. You're okay.

You're normal.

I'm...

quite strong-boned. I'm healthy.

Min Jung leaves tomorrow.

I have to go.

Did you cry?

I don't cry.

That's right.

You say you never cry.

It so happened that...

Ha Won...

saved Kang In Wook.

(A Piece of Your Mind)

You're going so far.

There are nursing homes near Seoul too.

It's close to the sea.

I wanted to live close to the sea.

It's only nice for a while.

My parents said Geojedo Island was great when...

they first moved, but now they're not so pleased.

It's fine if it's good for even a while.

Aren't you afraid of living in an unfamiliar place?

I am. Why wouldn't I be?

But I must go.

I want to try and fight it out.

I'm not weak.

I want to prove it to myself.

It's all good to be brave.

I don't know.

- Hey. - What?

Why do you run a boarding house? You hated it.

I insisted on taking over.

I wanted to work hard for five years,

save up, then live as I wanted.

Five years have passed.

Yes. That passed long, long ago.

My goal changed.

To Seo Woo.

I'll quit once she moves above ground level.

Eating well and living well makes her feel guilty, she said.

She feels more comfortable down there.

She keeps saying she's fine,

but she's truly fine when she's above ground.

I'll make sure she moves to another room.

I can't relax otherwise.

I'm home.

- Hey, Jin Su. - Hi.

Were you drinking without snacks again?

We have no snacks.

I thought so, so I bought some.

- What did you get? - Sausages and...

Mom.

Give me a little strength.

Why do I feel so sad?

It's crazy.

You were such a nuisance.

That was our deal.

- You were too much. - It's not my fault.

- Still. - What?

Hey.

She doesn't drink. She shouldn't drink.

Seo Woo, Seo Woo. Seo Woo?

What is wrong with you today?

It's fine. Give it back.

She can drink.

Why do I feel so sad?

Why do tears keep falling?

Stop it.

Min Jung leaves tomorrow and you're doing this?

I don't know. My heart breaks.

(Missed call)

(You have 2 missed calls. Mr. Dawn)

Ji... Ji Su?

Ye...Yes, it's me.

What...

How come...

I heard In Wook's music.

Didn't you play it?

That... That was...

Good. I was going to ask for a favor.

Do you know how In Wook confessed his love for me?

Suddenly...

I wouldn't know. Who is Kang In Wook?

He said he watched me for 10 years.

He liked watching me, so he didn't leave Oslo.

I can't forget what he said and the look on his face then.

He was so cute.

He liked you for a long time.

He likes being where you were,

listening to what you listened to,

and he wants to feel what you felt.

I like watching him.

It's unrequited love.

Ji Su's trigger point. Mr. Kang's unrequited love.

I want to hear In Wook's voice.

- Help me out. - No.

I don't know who he is,

and don't want to know him.

It'll be hard for him, so just let me listen.

Not a conversation.

He's not suffering at all.

I had a lot to drink last night and I can't talk right now.

- You can rest now. - I'm...

I'm dead, am I not?

I have a practice session today.

Hello.

I'm not in the mood to say hello, but I did.

I'm talking to you.

Don't you have anything to say to me?

Do you think I'm talking to you because I want to?

I'm sorry.

He talked.

Is everything going well...

with the preparation for Piano in April?

You get to perform at an amazing show.

Why... Why are you saying that all of a sudden?

He talked again.

Can you play...

piece number one for me?

I want to hear you play it right now.

Seo Woo.

You can't just ask me to...

Please play the piece.

I want to hear In Wook's voice, and I want to hear him...

play the piano.

He'll have a hard time talking to me since I'm dead.

Please do me a favor.

Let me hear him from afar.

Seo... Seo Woo.

Please continue. I'm listening.

The longer you play, the better.

I'll listen to you play for just five minutes.

I was totally wrong...

about everything.

I was a fool.

So don't be bothered by what I said to you.

Ha Won and Ji Su...

Please speak as if Ji Su can listen to you.

I'll explain later.

Just do as I say.

Is it the device?

She knows that she's dead.

She wanted to hear your voice.

Let's give Ji Su what she asked for.

Ji Su asked for...

I made this piece...

as I thought of Ji Su.

And...

I made this for Ji Su as well.

I thought of her...

when she didn't even know who I was...

and also when I had one-sided feelings for her.

Then one day...

She looked at me for the very first time.

Even after we got married,

I always...

thought of Ji Su as I played the piano.

I love her.

And I miss her.

Wasn't it difficult to talk to me?

It just felt like...

talking to a friend who lives really far away.

Do you think you can keep doing that?

Please be honest.

I don't think so.

You're very honest.

Then here's my last request.

Can you...

please get rid of me?

Farewell, my early 20s.

(I'm so excited and happy. Let's not forget today.)

We'll take you to the bus stop.

Let's just say goodbye outside.

Let us take you there.

I won't come back.

My gosh.

Why isn't Seo Woo here yet?

Let us take you to the bus stop.

No, it's okay.

Let's just say goodbye in front of the boarding house.

Just wish me good luck, and let me leave in peace.

Don't make such a big fuss about it.

Just act like I'm going to the supermarket or something.

She seems nervous.

Min Jung.

Let me give you a hug.

No.

Okay.

I'll see you.

Smile.

You'll visit on your day off, right?

Don't forget to text me in advance.

I'll cook a nice meal for us to enjoy.

I'll treat you something even better next time,

so come by when you can!

I'm fine, you know.

Tell Eun Ju that.

Don't be a stranger, okay?

Join us for meals and stay the night if you want.

Don't cry all the time...

and enjoy your love llife.

Sure.

Don't worry.

Don't you worry!

Be brave.

Be brave!

Have courage!

That's the Eun Ju Boarding House I remember.

Thanks for injecting me with energy.

Eun Ju,

I now have the strength to go on.

Can you please get rid of me?

I shouldn't exist.

- Please get rid of me. - How...

can I?

You could ask Ha Won to...

No.

He shouldn't have to say...

goodbye to you again.

Right, I agree.

I'll...

do it.

I'll get rid of the device so that...

you'll never speak to anyone again.

I know it's not an easy request, but I'm counting on you.

I remember the day we first met.

I was at my lowest, you see.

With a box of bowls in my arms, I walked up a hill...

only to see you waiting at the top.

That's when I first realized that people do actually glow.

Ms. Kim Ji Su?

Brightly glowing.

I felt really grateful.

And I was worried the bowls might shatter.

You were waiting for me outside your house.

I'm grateful for everything, Seo Woo.

You can now get rid of me...

and forget about me.

Bye.

I can't do this right now.

Wait, that came out weird.

I can't look at you.

- Seo Woo? - I can't...

look at you right now.

Bye.

(Mr. Dawn)

You're happy to see me, right?

I bet you are.

We parted ways but was reunited after 35 minutes.

I didn't expect a goodbye like that earlier.

I hope you're not letting what Kang In Wook said get to you.

I'm not easily fazed by other people's words.

I don't care.

Your arm will be too numb to comfortably sleep.

It's the perfect amount of weight.

I'm already close to falling asleep.

(Voice recording 007)

With a smile you said to me

Just like a bird

I wish to fly far away

Seo Woo?

I'm all right.

It's just that...

I'm a little confused right now.

Even I find myself to be a little weird too.

What brought Mr. Kang back to his senses...

seemed to have been you,

and that...

makes me feel terrible.

It's awful.

I shouldn't exist.

Please get rid of me.

I'll...

do it.

It was the right choice for everyone...

and not just him.

So there's no reason for you to be sad.

But it still doesn't feel right to me.

Mr. Kang.

I understand now...

how it feels to get between two people.

If I get between Ji Su and Ha Won,

they don't crush me from either side.

It hurts so much...

how they crush me twice as hard.

Slip out of it for a while.

Then you can see...

whether you were stuck in-between...

or standing side-by-side.

Will you come back to the studio?

I'm not sure.

Studio Moon cures slumps.

It's true.

You got me out.

I spent all my energy on that.

I'm exhausted now.

I want to apologize.

To whom?

You hurt so many.

To you and...

Ha Won.

You can apologize to me right now.

I'm sorry and...

Thank you for getting me out.

To Ha Won...

I'll give him the message.

But if he insists on speaking to you face-to-face,

I'll tell you so.

Can we do that?

If he says he's fine,

then he really is.

While you suspected Ji Su...

and Ha Won for over 10 years,

Ha Won figured out for himself...

how to escape the hardships he faced.

He has his own method.

It's not even all of it.

He hangs on to just a piece of what was precious to him,

and uses that to stay grounded and achieve his dream.

And protect himself too.

Are you annoyed that I praised him so much?

No.

You have...

a great uncle.

(Concert Hall)

Come if you're free.

It's...

quite nice here.

See you at the studio.

Studio Moon cures slumps.

You need to escape yours.

I'll come to Eun Ju Boarding House today.

(Han Seo Woo)

Where are you?

At work.

When do you leave?

In 30 minutes.

I'll get back to you.

I'm leaving now.

When you leave, do you walk through the lobby?

No.

- Are you here? - No.

I'm at the shipping address.

You sound like you're here.

How do you get out? Do you not pass through the lobby?

I have a separate hallway.

Why do you ask?

Just because.

You want to see me?

Yes.

I want to see you from a distance,

but you don't pass through here.

I'm at the studio, so I can't fly to you.

Seo Woo.

Speak.

Okay.

I'll speak.

I must.

I figured out...

why I'm acting so strangely.

There's one thing I can't stand.

Something I can't get over.

I'm scared of being sad.

When I'm looking at you...

I feel so...

Why do you feel sad when you look at me?

That's where my problem starts.

It's not your fault at all.

I'm...

I'm the problem, so...

I can't be without you.

For a short while.

It won't be for long. For just a short while...

No.

Seo Woo. Seo Woo.

Look at me.

No. Pretend I'm there.

Pretend I'm in front of you.

Pretend you're in front of me.

Pretend you're in front of me.

For a while, just a short while,

let's spend time apart.

- Seo Woo. - While we're apart,

do something for me.

For me,

do anything that gives you strength.

Place your hand...

beneath your ear...

where you can feel your pulse.

Remember this every time you feel your pulse.

I love you so much.

And I care about you a lot.

Don't give up because you feel sad.

I'll wait.

So whenever you're ready,

promise me...

that you'll contact me.

I promise.

I'll think of this pulse...

as something that protects me.

I'll remember what you said every time I feel my heartbeat.

Drink this and sleep well.

(Drink this and sleep well.)

(From Kim Ji Su)

("Piano in April", Kang In Wook's recital)

I'll do well,

Ji Su.

(Pianist, Kang In Wook)

(We look forward to a fantastic recital.)

That was great, In Wook.

Ji Su.

Here.

- She'll call. - I never asked.

You're so confident that I feel sorry for you.

I don't know how to explain this.

But we can't break up.

Do we have our latest test results?

Isn't that Jin Hwan's voice?

We decided not to use mine.

It's that sound engineer's voice, isn't it?

The temperature is 17.5°C.

- The weather is clear. - Seo Woo?

But it will be a little dry.

You look more than 30 years old.

Were you here for that long?

Let's see.

You sound amazing.

Seo Woo, you should listen to this.

Do you know Seo Woo?

Searching "the sound of reed organs" on the web.

This isn't Seo Woo.

It's just her voice.

You see, it's not Seo Woo yet.

Just a second.

It hasn't been triggered yet.

What did she like?

Eun Ju Boarding House.

Searching "Eun Ju Boarding House" on the web.

Your grandmother?

Hey, you're here.

Why do you look so startled?

You're not allowed to mess around with the machine like that.

I know how to turn it on and off.

I started studying sound engineering.

I'll be overseeing your practice today.

You'll be overseeing it?

Yes, I'll just watch.

I noticed that the lineup for the concert is quite amazing.

- You'll have to practice hard. - Will you be...

coming to the studio again?

When did I ever quit?

I should never have started the business...

if I was going to give up so easily.

I'm going to study hard...

so that I can help Seo Woo record your next album.

It takes about two years to release an album, right?

I don't work with people who don't know about music.

I guess I should study music as well.

I have a lot to do.

Then how about we make a bet and see who finishes first?

Your album or my self-teaching.

Let's live diligently.

Hey, I tried doing what Seo Woo told me to do.

- But it won't work. - Why aren't you coming over?

Are you going to visit this week or not?

You're working really hard again, aren't you?

Okay, I'll go.

- Can you ask her for me? - Just a second.

Seo Woo, she wants to know if there's anything different.

I don't know.

Seo Woo doesn't know either.

- What could it be? - What?

What did you say?

"Misiryeong Valley Sunset"?

I'm memorizing it.

Who's that?

Okay, fine.

You there, who's Mr. Dawn?

Searching Mr. Dawn...

Min Jung!

Gosh, I brought her out.

Look here.

I brought her out.

It's Seo Woo. Would you like to talk to her?

Sure.

Mr. Dawn.

Mr. Dawn brings out Han Seo Woo's courage?

Makes sense.

And who's that?

Some guy.

This way.

Stay with me.

When Ms. Han was at her lowest...

With them, that memory is always vivid.

Those are the people I rarely forget about.

The one who helped her be herself again.

I'm Mr. Dawn.

Mr. Dawn,

good night.

Thank you for everything.

What you liked to see...

Are you saying...

I miss you. I want to be with you.

And I want to hold hands.

Stay with me.

Things will get better.

Things will get better.

I love it the most when it's 17°C outside.

It's the best temperature for a walk.

It's the perfect temperature for one to start healing.

Do you want to live here?

Come here after work.

I'll be here when you come,

and when I leave, you can stay.

When Ms. Han was at her lowest,

someone injected energy into her life.

That someone you can call "me".

Seriously?

Her trigger point seems complicated,

but it's easy to explain.

Isn't it fascinating?

Just like a failure can become a success,

her trigger point is like a flip of a coin.

I'm intrigued and mesmerized.

The lightning.

Have a crack at that one again.

We have lightning.

Ji Su was afraid of it.

The piano.

How is it?

How about some pepper?

Sure, sounds good.

Ji Su, you should listen to yourself while you play.

The lightning.

Roaring.

Mom.

We have lightning.

Your mom plays the piano whenever there's a thunderstorm...

so that you wouldn't be afraid.

I finally found someone that is precious to me,

so shouldn't I become a different person too?

If Seo Woo had not been in my life,

I wouldn't have even thought about going.

- Eun Ju. - Hey, Su Ji.

Flowers have blossomed everywhere.

It's nice to see it again.

- What about dinner? - I ate, of course.

Good. Anyway, head inside first.

I'm going to wait out here for Seo Woo.

She's been in low spirits lately.

Got it.

(Please do not take, Eun Ju Boarding House)

(Please do not take, Eun Ju Boarding House)

Seo Woo.

Me too.

Let's go home.

Seo Woo,

when did you draw the heart?

- A heart? - Yes.

There's a heart somewhere?

- Wasn't it you? - What do you mean?

It wasn't you?

What's this heart you're talking about?

This right here.

It wasn't me.

- It wasn't you? - No.

Then who was it?

I think I know.

(Please do not take, Eun Ju Boarding House)

(Please do not take, Eun Ju Boarding House)

Eun Ju,

do you have a hammer or something?

Why do you ask?

I need to get rid of something...

and a hammer is what came to mind.

- Destroy what? - What?

Well,

someone asked me...

Who would make such a brutal request?

Don't do it.

Look at the state you're in.

You can barely say it without stuttering.

Don't bother with such cruel favors.

That's not the case.

Don't.

You don't have to, so don't do it.

Have you eaten dinner?

I was going to finish this when I close the boarding house,

but let's have it tonight.

I'm done adding meaning to everything I do,

so let's eat.

If you think you're alone,

you'll end up being swayed by others.

But you're not alone.

Think of the people who loved you, who loves you now,

and who will love you in the future.

Feels reassuring, right?

That is why you'll never be weak.

You take good care of yourself,

so you have yourself.

You're one to do what's best for yourself,

so what's going on?

Why are you hurting yourself like this?

Now, eat this, get back on your feet,

and tell me who made the request.

Whoever it is will feel my wrath.

Why ask a difficult favor and bring someone pain?

Just don't do it.

I won't.

I don't think I have to do it.

I think I was out of my mind.

Hey, you can't eat this then.

No, these are tears of realization.

Tears of joy.

Eat.

My dear Seo Woo.

I refuse to get rid of you as you asked.

But I'll keep you where no one will find you.

I also refuse to forget you as you asked.

I'll remember you.

It's the kind of weather you like.

Spring new shoots and grow well.

Seo Woo, you've been breaking up with everybody.

I'm sure there's a reason.

Someone special came and went.

That's why Uncle left.

Where to?

He went to that place.

He thought of you and plucked up the courage.

Where's that?

I didn't think he'd go there.

He didn't have to, but he went.

I was against it. Why go there?

Where did he go?

The place I couldn't have gone if it hadn't been...

for Ha Won.

I'm back,

Mom, Dad.

I know where he went.

I'm back.

With a smile you said to me

Just like a bird

I wish to fly far away

(Han Seo Woo)

(Han Seo Woo)

Hello?

Hey.

What do you see?

The sky.

What about you? What are you looking at?

The night sky.

A garden.

And a clothesline.

You're at the shipping address.

You sound better.

I felt a bit better once I came to the shipping address.

And I felt a lot better as soon as I heard your voice.

I can't even remember when I was sad.

Your voice alone is already very effective.

It's more than enough.

You'll fully recover once you see me.

A complete recovery.

Then I can't wait to see you.

When can we meet?

Tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

Tomorrow.

Sounds nice.

Once I board the plane, I'll be in Seoul in about 12 hours.

I'll be there in two hours.

I'll be there in 15 minutes.

You're here.

I'm back.

(Thank you for watching A Piece of Your Mind.)

(A Piece of Your Mind)

Did you see the moon?

- It's huge. - I know, right?

- Isn't it beautiful? - Yes, it's so bright.
