CHARACTERS, PLACES, ORGANIZATIONS,
AND EVENTS IN THIS DRAMA ARE FICTITIOUS

I think I feel it with all my heart.

It feels like we're having

a silent conversation

that never ends
in a quiet world of our own.

Moeun.

Moeun.

Mom.

What are you doing here?
You didn't say you were coming.

Well, we went to my friend's son's wedding

- and thought we'd drop by.
- Uh-huh.

Modam must've been bothered that you left
like that when you came home last time.

He kept telling us to go see you
when we came to Seoul.

Good.

Uh...

They're my parents.

Hello.

Uh... Who is this?

Ah... Well...

"Hello. My name is Cha Jinwoo."

Oh, I see. It's nice to meet you.

Hello.

I'm seeing him.

You're seeing him?

Yes.

Oh.

Moeun's seeing him, honey.

I see.

By the way,

the reason I'm surprised is

because my daughter never told me
that she was seeing anyone at all.

Did you understand?

He understood it. He read your lips.

- Really?
- Yes.

It's nice to meet you.

Well, it must be
so unexpected for him too.

Since we said hi to each other today,
tell him we'll see him again next time.

Okay.

Right, Jiyu's home.
You should go inside first.

- Oh, sure.
- Okay.

- Well, then. See you again.
- See you.

My dad said,

"See you again next time."

Meet.

Are you okay?

You must've been surprised.

EP 09 REASONS

TELL ME THAT YOU LOVE ME

- Hey.
- Hey.

There's nothing to drink.

I'll go buy some.

- Make yourselves at home!
- Okay.

Maybe I should've invited him in.

He might be disappointed.

It's okay. I explained to him.

You explained to him?

How?

He's hard of hearing, isn't he?

Yes.

He can't hear at all.

He can't hear...

at all?

I'm not sure if you noticed,

I'm learning sign language these days
because of him.

For difficult words,
we communicate by writing,

and we have phones too.

They have speech-to-text apps.

There's no big problem.

I see.

How did he

lose his hearing?

Was he born deaf?

No.

I think it was when he was seven.

It happened after he was sick
for a few days.

Oh, no.

His parents must've been so heartbroken.

By any chance,
is any of his parents hearing-impaired?

I heard it could be inherited.

I don't know.

But then,

it's not like you're getting married soon.

It'd be rude
to ask such personal questions.

He said he's never seen his parents.

He...

grew up at an orphanage.

You...

Goodness...

You must be having a hard time
because of your work.

And now, the relationship...

Why are you taking the hard way?

I understand why you're worried.

But...

I'm really okay.

Sometimes it's hard auditioning
here and there

while working part-time,

but I don't regret it.

And he...

He's a really good person.

I somehow

ended up becoming a bad daughter to you.

But I am

trying very hard to live my life

without regrets.

We

never asked you to live for us.

Or to be a good daughter.

And I know you won't do as we say.

Yes, it's the path you've chosen.

I don't intend to go against it.

So...

can you wait and see a little longer?

It might be hard,

but it's what I've chosen.

So I'll handle the consequences.

You... You brat.

We don't want to upset you,

so we can't even show how worried we are.
Do you have any idea...

I'm sorry.

Right.

She has a point.

We've only met once.

Moeun.

He's tall and handsome,
and seems like a good person.

DEEP

Hey.

What are you doing here?

Drinking alone?

Yes.

Want some?

Here.

But why are you back?

I met her parents just now.

Moeun's parents?

Did you say hello? What were they like?

They were kind.

Why do you look so down, then?

You know why.

Ah...

I'm sure you can understand them

since you're a father.

Of course.

If a punk like you were
seeing my daughter,

I'd just beat him up like...

Just kidding.

I mean,

just the thought of Sol bringing some punk
to introduce to us someday...

I get so furious.

So what did Moeun say?

She was worried about me
and asked me if I was surprised.

It's something
you have to go through once.

That's how the relationship
between you and Moeun gets stronger.

It'll be all right.

It's here.

Your cab's here.

Thanks.

Next time you come,
you should stay for three days.

From spa to chicken and beer,
Go-Stop cards,

I'll treat you to the full course.

- Okay. Let's do that.
- Okay.

- Get home safe.
- Okay. Don't worry and go inside.

I'll close the door for you.
Have a safe trip back.

Sorry you had to kill time out here.

They looked okay.

They were pretending to be okay
so I wouldn't feel upset.

Don't be so down.

Who would say on first encounter,

"Listen. Why don't you marry my daughter?"

"Marry"? Come on.

I'm just saying.

They looked okay, so it's all right.

Maybe you're right.

I was scared for nothing.

- Let's get inside.
- Okay.

As you said,

we've met him just once.

Stop crying.

It's because I'm old.

My body stopped doing as I say
a long time ago.

Come to think of it,

now Moeun is older

than I was

when I had her.

They say when people grow old,
they become children again.

And you've become a crybaby.

Moeun is

more grown-up than us.

So stop it.

Exactly.

It's been all about what I want.

"For my child's sake"? It's all a lie.

When she quit her job,

and today too.

It doesn't matter
whether he can't hear or he's an orphan.

She's seeing him because she likes him.

But I can't even be supportive and say,

"Okay. I'm happy if you're happy."

It's been so shameless of me to say,

"I'm your mom and always on your side."

But it still breaks my heart.

Are you going to keep crying on the bus?

Then I'll change my seat
to one that's far from you.

All right.

I'm done crying. I'm done.

Were you asleep?

Is something wrong?

I couldn't

wait until tomorrow.

I just...

missed you so much.

Now that I've seen your face, I'll go.

Good night.

I'll walk you home.

I'd love that.

Have your parents left?

Well... Yes.

HE'S LATE?

HE MUST BE BUSY DATING.

HE MUST BE SO HAPPY.

I BET.

HELLO.

MR. CHA, I'VE NEVER SEEN YOU LATE BEFORE.

Sorry. I met someone out front
and had to talk with him for a bit.

- WHO?
- WHO?

I have someone to introduce to you.

Just a second.

THE CAFÉ LADY, RIGHT?

YES, I'M 100% SURE.

IT'S NOT THE CAFÉ LADY.
MAYBE HE'S A NEW STUDENT.

WHO IS HE? HE'S CUTE.

This is Taeho.

He can speak
and can't speak sign language.

I hope you'll help him a lot
and get along with him.

MR. CHA!

HE CAN HEAR,
BUT HE'S TAKING THIS CLASS WITH US?

- BUT WHY?
- BUT WHY?

Because Taeho wants to.

I need to go to the office for a bit.
Say hi to each other.

- OKAY.
- OKAY.

What?

Sir, wait...

TALK TO HIM.

HOW?

FORGET IT. WHAT'S THE POINT?

YOU'RE OLDER THAN HIM,
SO YOU SAY HI FIRST.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN, I'M OLDER?

SMILE. JUST SMILE.

SMILE?

WHY?

What? What do you...

Right...

WHY COME HERE OUT OF
ALL OTHER ART ACADEMIES?

Well, I...

YOU CAN JUST SPEAK

What do you mean?

Oh...

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

I see.

I'm sick of the college entrance prep.

And I'm sick of kids who talk too much,
and I thought it'd be different here.

NO WAY. HE SAYS HE HATES TALKATIVE PEOPLE.

REALLY?

WE'RE SUCH CHATTERBOXES. HE'LL HATE US.

I BET HE'LL QUIT AFTER TODAY'S CLASS.

JUST SMILE FOR NOW.

WHY DO YOU KEEP TELLING US TO SMILE?

WELCOME!

Right.

I'll make a reservation.

I'll bring a film camera.

By the way,

I heard a student who can hear enrolled
in Mr. Cha's class.

Do you know the reason?

Yes. He read Mr. Cha's interview,

and it made him so curious
about his class and paintings.

Isn't that cool?

But still, it won't be easy
without sign language.

What an unusual student.

Well, the student said he was...

Hello.

Oh, hello.

Have you two ever seen Mr. Cha's work?

I haven't yet.

I haven't, too.

Hmm...

What do you think

the student saw in Mr. Cha's interview

that made him want to take his class
despite the language barrier?

Well,

I haven't had a chance to read
the interview properly, so...

- Have you read it?
- No.

It was such a good interview,

but none of you have read it.

Doesn't it upset you to hear that, Jiyu?

Uh... Well, promoting is our job as well,

so we should work harder.

But since they're so busy,

it doesn't upset me.

I can understand.

See you later, then.

If you only find materials I ask you to,

meet artists I ask you to,

and tell them what I tell you to tell them
like some parrots,

then I think using errand agencies
would be more efficient.

I'll say this only once.

There's no middle ground.

You either become a true curator

who recognizes artists' values
and discovers them,

or end up saying, "There are
so many talented artists out there,"

"but why is there no one around me?
I'm so unlucky,"

after others have discovered the good ones
and helped them grow.

You'll just end up
complaining about your bad luck

and become

a former curator.

She's so scary.

I'm sorry about that day.

That means "sorry," right?

You don't have to apologize.

You couldn't hear.

MY EYES ARE LIKE EARS TO ME.

WHEN I SAW YOUR FACE THAT DAY,

I KNEW SOMETHING WAS OFF,

BUT I PRETENDED TO NOT NOTICE IT.

I'M SORRY.

Then I will

apologize for cussing you out.

I'm sorry.

I DIDN'T KNOW YOU CUSSED ME OUT!

I shouldn't have said that then.

Oh, that's...

Well...

It may sound rude to you,

I'm actually kind of jealous.

Having your ears open all the time,

it can be painful.

Not every moment I can hear is grateful.

RIGHT.

NOT BEING ABLE TO HEAR
IS NOT SO BAD SOMETIMES.

SOME WORDS LEAVE DEEPER SCARS

THAN THE ONES YOU GET FROM BEING DEAF.

I see.

STILL, YOU SHOULD THINK IT OVER AGAIN

ABOUT TAKING MY CLASS.

You went to an ordinary school
as a kid, too.

Where no one could speak sign language.

All by yourself.

HOW DID YOU KNOW?

Oh, uh...

Aren't you the one who sent me this?

Along with my wallet I dropped that day.

AHN TAEHO

QUIET WESTERN PAINTING CLASS

So you didn't know?

Oh...

So that lady sent it to me then.

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

I'M JUST GLAD AND GRATEFUL
THAT YOU CAME TO SEE ME.

Well, me too.

Thank you.

Right.

Thank you.

Dohun, it's you.

Don't pretend to be glad.

You could tell?

Long time no see.

I heard the rumor that you're in Korea

and that the new director of the center
is Song Seokyung.

But still couldn't believe it.

I didn't expect the Seokyung I know
to really be here.

You seem to have a lot to say.
Why don't we have a cup of tea?

No, thanks.

- Okay.
- By the way,

what's your intention?

There must be a reason
that you chose here.

They offered good conditions,
and you were here.

- What?
- You.

You're on a roll, aren't you?

I hear people have to wait for
at least two years to buy your work.

You turned down
all the best galleries in Korea

and are working
with our small arts center, Mr. Kwon.

It's such an honor.

Well, you're not wrong,

but...

you can't face me looking like that.

Why not?

I didn't realize it before,

but you and Jinwoo are such a good match.

Anyway,

I can understand you.

Sorry. I was lying.

I really tried...

No, I forced myself...

to try to understand you
even a little bit.

"After such a big incident,

"she must've gone through a lot

"to get back up."
I tried to think in your shoes.

I really tried, Seokyung.

But...

I could never understand.

For money and fame? Fine.

Maybe you came back
because you missed your first love.

I don't know why,

but you should've avoided here.

I didn't want to.

I see.

But you know what?

You ran off alone,
making me look like a crazy fool,

so you should be at least pretending

to be sorry.

But then,

you wouldn't have done it

if you knew that.

Mr. Kwon Dohun.

I'll visit your studio one of these days.

Taeho asked me to say thank you for him.

"Taeho..."

Oh, Taeho.

You met him again?

You sent him his wallet, right?

Mm-hmm.

I heard you sent
the arts center brochure, too.

After he read my interview in it,

he came to see me.

I see.

And he decided to take my class.

He's taking your class?

Wow. I never imagine that'd happen.

It's all thanks to you, Moeun. Thank you.

When strangers

misunderstand you, I hate it.

Because you're a good person.

Yes. Do you remember?

They wanted to

see me wearing a scarf
at today's audition, so I brought it.

Are solo exhibitions

only for very famous artists?

Not necessarily. Why?

I just thought it'd be nice

if many people could see them.

You mean my paintings?

The arts center

director is

very

interested in your works, I heard.

Apparently, she said
you're a great artist.

To tell you the truth, not long ago,

she offered to hold my solo exhibition.

Congrats.

But I haven't decided yet.

I'm still thinking it over.

I have something to tell you.

She...

She and I were in a relationship
for quite a while long ago.

I already knew.

Then why didn't you
ask me anything about it?

Mm...

I'm not sure.

I think

I was probably
waiting for you to tell me first.

CHA JINWOO!

In the end, a show does well
when everyone involved does a good job.

If it's meant to hit big,
even props like a flowerpot

act well by themselves.

Keep it in mind when you choose a work.

You should choose a charming role
regardless of how big it is.

It's an old neighborhood friend

who's had a crush on the second male lead
for a long time. It's a great character.

I was so torn until the last minute.

Have you gotten another good offer?

You don't look so happy.

Oh...

So I got the job?

Yes, you did!

I just heard that you wanted to see me
once again, so I didn't expect this.

Thank you.

My pleasure.

TO ACTRESS JUNG MOEUN
THIRTY AND THREE

CHA JINWOO

I GOT CAST IN A TV SHOW

I'm enjoying your new song.

Oh, you've listened to it?

I GOT CAST IN A TV SHOW

IT'S SUCH GREAT NEWS

IT'S SUCH GREAT NEWS. CONGRATULATIONS!

- What is it?
- Can I open it now?

What could it be?

It's... No, it's a secret.

Darn it.

JUNG MOEUN

I'M IN A MEETING

You're in a meeting?

Hey, what's wrong with you?

That's what I should say. What's with you?

Since the meeting ended, I've been waiting
for you in the lobby for an hour.

But what is this?

You really were dodging my calls
and ignoring my texts.

No way. I was just...
What was it again? I just...

I had something
to think about and all, and you know...

I was going to call you back later.

Just get in!

Hmm.

Gosh, this is so tiresome.

So you should've just gone back.

Why did you wait for me for so long?
It's so hot.

Because I was glad to see you!

Keep it down.

And I had something to show you.

What? Is that a script?

I haven't even got started.
Don't make a fuss.

Yoo Meri, 33 years old, a lyricist.

I have a role with a name now.

It's you?

- It's really you?
- Yes.

Yes! Wow!

Hey, that's so cool! I'm so proud of you.

- Right, I'm so cool, right?
- So cool.

I can't believe it too.

- Let's go eat something nice.
- Sure.

Hey, wait.

What about

your boyfriend?
Aren't you celebrating it with him?

Oh, he's busy today,
so we'll meet tomorrow.

Hey, it's my treat.

Okay! Let's go.

Hello.

Hey, the woman you talked about

is Ms. Oh Jiyu, right?

Yes.

Woman's intuition's telling me
she's misunderstanding you and me.

Why?

I don't know why, but it's a good sign.

She's jealous
because she's interested in you.

Oh... Hey, hi...

Hello? Hi, ma'am.

What time was
your session next week again?

Thank you.

- Enjoy your meal.
- Okay.

Today's dinner...

TO JUNG MODAM:
TODAY'S DINNER

Who am I to call him trash?

I acted so cool,

and I'm being like this? I'm trash.

In my old external hard drive,

I found something really rare.

What is it?

The first song I've ever written.

Then it must be
from a long time ago. You still have it?

What's the title?

It has no title.

Actually, it's embarrassing
to call it a song, since it's incomplete.

Well...

- My first melody if you will.
- Play it.

All right.

Hey, stop lying. You really wrote this?

Come on.

What would I gain from lying to you?

The melody
just suddenly came to me.

Can't you see I'm recording it
so I don't forget?

- Just look in the mirror.
- Remember back then?

- No.
- It was

recorded at your house.

What?

- Oh, when you played the piano?
- Yes.

To be honest, I'm a little moved.
Play it again.

But it sounds different from earlier.

Be quiet, will you?

I should listen to it again.

I stayed a few days at your place
after I ran away from home in high school.

Yes, I remember.
We were sophomores, right?

Back then,

I felt so uncomfortable

and weird around your mom and dad.
You know?

My mom and dad? Why?

Because they were so warm.

I grew up in a house
where everyone was so cold,

so to me,

your family wasn't normal.

I heard you introduced Mr. Cha
to your parents.

Yes. You heard.

I hope they like him

as much as they like you.

What? I wouldn't like that.

Hey!

Time... Well,

just give them some time.

They will like him.

You think so?

In your phones,

you must have pictures you've taken
multiple times without realizing why.

We'll look at those photos

and talk about them.

COULD YOU EXPLAIN ONCE AGAIN?

I MISSED SOME
WHILE TRANSLATING IT FOR TAEHO.

You just talked about me, didn't you?
What did you say?

I MISSED IT BECAUSE OF YOU

HE BLAMED YOU
AND ASKED HIM TO EXPLAIN AGAIN.

THAT'S RIGHT!

AH!

WHENEVER I CAN'T UNDERSTAND IMMEDIATELY

AND ASK MY FRIENDS TO REPEAT FOR ME,

THEY MUST FEEL LIKE THIS.

YOU SHOULD BE GOOD TO YOUR FRIENDS.

DRAW THE MOMENT THAT MAKES YOU STOP

Thank you.

IF I DON'T MAKE IT TO COLLEGE,
IT'S ALL BECAUSE OF YOU.

SORRY.

"SORRY"?

Congratulations.

Thank you.

How do you feel?

I feel happy,

but I'm also worried.
I'm not sure how I feel.

Here. Ah.

Thank you.

Please.

Oh, right. Sohee told me

to congratulate you for her.

She was so sad she couldn't be here.

I wanted to see her too.

Did she go somewhere?

Well, Sol is coming down with a cold,

so they went to the hospital
with Sohee's mother.

Is it serious?

No, it's not. She's okay.

Have some, please.

SOHEE

Excuse me.

What did they say?

Tell me.

What did they say? It's okay.

It's okay.

I'll be right there.

What is it?

What's wrong?

My Sol is... Sol is...

The doctor suspects

Sol is hearing-impaired.

Hey, I'm sorry,

but I have to close the bar.

You should go now.

I feel so bad.

Let's celebrate together next time, okay?

I'll leave it to you.

I'm sorry.

Sometimes, I have nightmares.

The whole world is

so dark that I can't see anything.

Then I hear someone
shouting for help from somewhere.

And I feel afraid

because I feel like
there's nothing I can do to help.

So I hated having feelings for someone.

I hated asking them to get through

all the difficulties

that could be faced
because I'm unable to hear.

And I was afraid I might

not be able to protect you
when you are in danger.

So for a while, I wanted to pretend

not to notice all your efforts.

I wanted to tell you this

because you might think

that I'm not opening up to you
because we speak different languages.

You don't have to worry about that.

You don't have to protect me.

I just...

want to be with you

because I love you.

TELL ME THAT YOU LOVE ME

Is there any painting
you drew before 2013?

Cha Jinwoo?

"He went missing." "He's dead."
There were a lot of rumors.

Apparently, Mr. Cha's first love
hurt him really badly.

Is it possible
to go from lovers to friends?

If the two spent a lot of time together,
they must share a lot of memories, right?
