(Lovers in Bloom)
(Episode 119)
Call me as soon as you get there.
Jae Hee and I will take care of the rest.
I'm sorry to leave like this. You aren't even well.
You don't need to worry about me.
Hello?
Bo Ra.
Take care of Dad for a while.
And make sure you look after your health too.
Do Hyun.
Aunt, let me talk to him.
Hello? Mr. Tall.
- Woo Ri. - Why don't you visit me these days?
I really miss you.
Mr. Tall!
Look at you, Woo Ri. You've gotten even prettier.
You promised me that you'd come and see me, but you didn't.
I'm...
really sorry, Woo Ri.
Then I'll forgive you.
Instead, promise me that you'll visit me every day. That's all.
I'm sorry.
I don't think I'll be able to visit you anymore.
I'm going on a trip to somewhere far away.
Even if I'm not around,
you must stay strong and healthy with your mom, okay?
Then I'll come and see you some time in the future.
Really?
Woo Ri, Mr. Jin Do Hyun asked me to bring you to him.
You should keep your promise.
Jin Do Hyun, I'll be waiting with your little friend, so call me.
Where is Mr. Jin?
If we wait here, he'll come to see you soon.
This puppy is so cute, right?
Woo Ri, I think Mr. Jin is going to get you a puppy for a present.
Really?
It's so cute.
Yes.
What? Jin Do Hyun went to the airport?
It leaves at 11:30am for New York. Got it.
- What's going on? - I think Jin Do Hyun is on the run.
Has the 11:30am flight to New York left already?
It took off just a while ago.
Yes, Mom.
What? What are you talking about? Why is Woo Ri nowhere to be found?
What should we do?
Hey.
What happened? Why did Woo Ri disappear?
We got back from the market, and while we were cooking,
she said she'd go to the playground, but she wasn't there.
Didn't she fall asleep while playing at her friend's house?
It happened last time.
No. She would've told me she would go to her friend's house.
What should we do? I searched everywhere near our house.
I'll go and check around the intersection.
Please call, and ask Woo Ri's friends' moms.
Okay.
- Hello? - It's me. Meet me right now.
I'll tell you where to go on my way.
Where is Woo Ri?
You should've kept your promise. Why did you bother me like this?
The kid is having fun at my friend's store,
so don't worry.
Where's my money?
It's in the trunk.
Let me see the money first.
Police officers?
Where is Woo Ri?
I asked where Woo Ri is!
Officer Moo, Woo Ri is at a pet shop in Jamsil.
- That jerk! - Go on.
You...
are arrested for violating the additional punishment law...
on specific crimes.
You have the right to an attorney,
request to have the legality of this arrest reviewed,
and get a chance to explain yourself.
There are many other police officers to arrest me here.
Go to Woo Ri now. She must've been startled.
Let's go.
Woo Ri!
Mom!
- Mom. - It's okay.
It's okay. Mommy is here.
Stop crying.
Mom.
Mom... Mom...
Why are you still here? You should go on now.
Meet that jerk Mole, and get the story straight.
Tell him to say that it was all my doing,
and he did it by my orders.
- Chairman Jin, that's... - Just do as I said.
No matter what.
Dad.
You have nothing to worry about.
I...
will spend everything I have and do whatever I can...
to make sure that Do Hyun gets out of prison.
Dad, please.
I told you that it was all my doing.
Mole hit Cha Tae Jin or whatever his name is...
because I told him to.
I had to stop that jerk...
from ruining my son's life.
Hang on. I don't have time for this.
I should fully recover soon so I can sort everything out.
Right. Bring me my medications.
I'm glad to see you healthy.
What is it you want to say?
Stop beating around the bush.
Gosh. You're so impatient.
It looks like...
my dad convinced that jerk Chun Young Bae...
to say that he ordered him to hit you with a car.
However, you already know...
that I gave him that order.
I really wanted to kill you.
So...
stop my dad from pulling any tricks this time.
I'm relieved that you at least have that much of a conscience.
I got cuffed by the woman I love just like you said.
I can't hide behind my dad again.
It looks like my dad is still being investigated by the prosecutors.
Is there any way to stop at least that?
Thanks to the slush fund ledgers he kept so meticulously,
you will become a hero soon.
- Jin Do Hyun. - Fine. Forget it.
I didn't think it would work on someone like you.
I think it's a good thing.
He'll suffer a great loss after the tax investigation anyway.
It won't be fair to us if we're the only ones to suffer.
We should teach those jerks,
who turned their backs on my dad after getting bribes from him,
what the price for betrayal is. Of course.
Jin Do Hyun!
Show people the true revenge against the powerful but corrupt people.
The higher-ups in the police...
seem to think they can just crush filthy loan sharks.
When it comes to pushing forward without fear,
you, Cha Tae Jin, are the best.
I'd appreciate it...
if you think I'm paying for my sins to you with the slush fund ledgers.
And...
I would like to see Officer Moo.
There he is! He's coming!
Do you admit it? How do you feel now?
- Is everything true? - Is everything true?
Did you accept money in return for processing the case as requested?
- Do you admit it? - Please say a few words!
Is it true that you manipulated the data?
- Please say a few words. - Do you admit the allegations?
- Please tell us. - Please tell us the truth!
Oh, there he is.
We heard that many people received your slush fund. Who else is there?
Do you admit it?
Will you tell the prosecution everything?
- How do you feel now? - Please say a few words!
Please tell us!
- Please say a few words! - How do you feel now?
Is there anything you want to say to me?
Like what?
Don't you remember telling me,
"Stay out of it because you don't even have the qualifications,"
"and you'll end up burdening everyone"?
You excluded me and underestimated me.
Look at what happened.
Honestly, half of this was my work.
I'm the one who caught the suspect.
So what I'm saying is...
that you shouldn't take all the compliments alone.
I deserve some compliments too. "You worked very hard. Great job."
Shouldn't you be saying something like that? That's all I'm saying.
So you must hear that from me?
Yes, I must hear it from you.
Thank you.
Well, you didn't have to sound that serious.
You must have had a hard time.
Yes, I went through so much.
When you collapsed and lost your consciousness, I was really...
It made me age 10 years.
Is that why your face started looking...
What are you talking about?
Anyway, I'm relieved...
that Jin Do Hyun didn't neglect Woo Ri and turned himself in.
Right.
He'd like to see you.
I think he has something to say.
I'm sorry for asking you to meet me.
You probably didn't want to see me again.
What do you want to say?
Woo Ri is doing well, right?
I was really fond of Woo Ri.
Maybe it's because I'm such a terrible person.
I've never been that fond of anyone before.
I was like that, but one day, you and Woo Ri...
showed up in front of me.
I thought, "I guess someone like me can fall in love too."
"My heart can be warm too."
Mr. Jin.
When I met you two, I realized for the first time in my life...
that it is possible for me to like someone that much.
That's why I absolutely didn't want to let you go.
I didn't even know that it was my punishment for what I had done.
I'm sorry.
I'm aware that apologizing to you now is useless.
I mean, I must sound completely shameless now.
But I thought that I should still say it to you.
That's why I wanted to see you.
I can't say that I'll forgive you.
But in any case,
you didn't turn a blind eye to Woo Ri and came back,
so I thank you for that.
Why do you keep yawning?
I've volunteered to work a few night shifts...
since I came back, so I'm exhausted.
Did something happen?
A man lit a bunch of candles at night to propose to his girlfriend,
but it turned into a disaster because it caused a fire.
Well, how on earth did that cause a fire?
It's because he created a heart shape with dozens of candles.
Goodness, he shouldn't have gone overboard.
Who starts a fire while proposing to his girlfriend?
Women actually like such things.
Anyway, men have it so hard.
Women do have a bit of a fantasy about wedding proposals.
You're now the youngest Senior Inspector.
Having two rose of Sharon insignias at that age is amazing.
And both of them are in full bloom.
Plus, you have Moo Goong Hwa by your side too.
Hey.
Gosh. Ever since dealing with the case with Officer Moo's family,
I can't help paying attention to even petty theft cases.
That's not a bad thing.
- By the way... Mr. Park. - Yes?
Well, how did you propose to your wife?
Why do you ask? Are you planning on proposing to Officer Moo?
We'll be able to see Tae Jin more often from now on.
I'm so glad he got promoted.
The only thing he has to do now is getting married.
Why do these apples taste so bad?
It doesn't look like Grandmother has changed her mind.
Doesn't marriage happen when two people like each other?
Son, it sounds like you'll shock me when you get married too.
I won't get married.
- What? - Gosh. Okay, we'll see about that.
She adores Woo Ri too.
She won't be against it now, right?
I guess Mr. Moo is visiting his wife's family again.
Her father is alone after all.
Ju Young told me that her father really is something.
Mr. Moo is such a nice person.
It's because Bo Ra is so good to us.
By the way, must he really leave to study abroad?
Ju Young told me that they've been getting a lot of projects lately.
What's Ju Young going to do now?
Well, they can work together again when he comes back in a few years.
Well, consider it as a chance to become your own boss.
If he says he wants to work with you when he comes back, don't let him.
Gosh, I can't do that. I'll think of him as my boss forever.
I'm a loyal guy.
By the way, everyone in your family must be happy...
about Mr. Cha's success.
I heard that he might get a special promotion.
Of course. My mother-in-law is so proud of him.
Thanks to him, my life has gotten much easier.
She doesn't even nag me that much these days.
Oh, she'd like Woo Ri to come over someday.
- Really? - She's very fond of Woo Ri.
Wouldn't it be a sign that everything will go well?
Well, if the two of them are sure about their feelings for each other,
that wouldn't be a bad thing.
Well...
Do you know what I found while cleaning Tae Jin's room today?
- He bought a ring. - Pardon me?
I think he's planning on proposing to you.
Did you really have no idea?
No, I didn't know at all.
I heard men like to see their women happy when they do such things.
So even if he makes it boring,
pretend that you're excited and over the moon...
to make him happy, okay?
Just seeing that ring got me so excited.
Let's help each other out in the future, okay?
Okay.
I see. Does Do Hyun's condition seem to be well?
That's all that matters.
I'll try to visit him soon.
All right. Good job.
- When did you come? - Just now.
If you had dinner, would you go for a walk with me?
I think you should exercise hard to visit Do Hyun often.
I can take care of myself.
Stop meddling in my affairs.
If you're here to pick up Bo Ra, just leave with her.
Don't bother me anymore.
When are you going to leave?
Next month.
You should leave in spring when it's warm.
Why would you leave in winter? Bo Ra will have a hard time.
Dad, you didn't scold Su Hyuk again, did you?
What did you say?
Why would you say that?
Why do you think?
She's enjoying being mean to me.
Go now. I'm tired.
We were just about to leave.
Goodnight.
I'll come back tomorrow.
You don't have to.
I'll come back tomorrow too.
Do they think I'll be happy to see them again?
- I have something to tell you. - What is it?
Don't get me wrong.
You must feel bad about leaving Father alone here, and...
Why? Do you not want to leave now?
In fact, I got an offer for a project I wanted to work on.
I think I can do it really well with Ju Young.
I'd be upset to miss the chance.
However, if it's too hard for you...
Thank you.
To be honest, I felt bad about going abroad while leaving Dad here.
Will you be okay?
It's true that I'm still a bit stressed,
but I want to try to get through it.
When our baby gets born,
Dad and Mother can watch our baby grow up.
I'll try to be better.
You can't be better than how you are now.
You're good enough.
Listen up, everyone. Never let her know what's going on.
- Especially you. Don't be awkward. - Yes, sir.
Mr. Cha, especially you should be really careful.
No matter how sweet Officer Moo is, you must be blunt to her. Okay?
You know how blunt Mr. Cha is all the time.
- But won't she be too surprised? - Exactly.
Hey, what are you talking about?
It will make her twice as happy.
Why else would people throw surprise parties?
I'm sure that Officer Moo will be touched and react enthusiastically.
Anyway, make sure to keep it gloomy before then, okay?
Gosh. Officer Moo is coming in now.
Already?
Why did the bun vendor move near to our substation?
- Sit here. - I should go over there.
- Did you water the flowers? - Yes, sir.
You shouldn't forget to do that.
What's going on?
Why did you all scatter when I came in?
Aren't you going to eat the buns?
- Oh, right. I forgot about that. - Of course we will.
- We should eat a lot of them. - That's right.
- The vendor works so hard. - This bun is so good.
Officer Moo, don't you think you're showing it off too much?
Well, we should still be more careful about him.
I'm also worried about the aftereffects.
Thank you.
You all know the farewell party for Mr. Cha is this Saturday, right?
Gosh, you already told us that so many times. Seriously.
Officer Moo, follow me to the investigation room.
Yes, sir.
Well, Officer Moo.
You can check these for me, right?
It hurts my eyes so much to check these all by myself.
Please check only these three.
I have to check something else with Officer Choi.
Gosh. I don't know...
why there are so many petty thieves these days.
Okay. I just have to finish it before going home, right?
Yes, that's right.
Hey. By the way,
Do you think Mr. Cha is planning to leave like this?
- Pardon me? - In fact,
it's not easy to decide to get married.
These days, there are many double-income families.
However, the burden of feeding someone else...
for the rest of their life.
That's not easy to deal with.
Women aren't the only ones who have cold feet before a wedding.
Oh, right. I heard a lot of people want to set him up on a blind date.
Yes. That's right. I heard that too.
He's a senior inspector now, not an inspector.
And he's handsome too.
Also, he was on the news recently.
Gosh. The higher-ups think very highly of him.
He's adorable.
Are you saying that to me?
Hey.
My gosh. Do you think we should've been harsher than that?
Gosh, no. Officer Moo looked like she wanted to cry.
Officer Moo.
Didn't Mr. Cha tell you anything?
I mean, did he propose to you?
- That's not important. - It's important.
You're so clueless sometimes. How could you trust men?
He'll work at the police office soon after the farewell party.
What would you do if he doesn't propose to you?
Why would you scare me like that?
It's because...
Mr. Cha seems to have changed a little bit.
How?
It seems like the passion is fizzling out.
He looks a little bit odd.
There's not much passion anymore in his eyes when he looks at you.
No way. Corporal Jang, come on.
Just make sure to dress up nicely for his farewell party.
Even if things don't go well, you should make sure...
that he regrets leaving you...
whenever he thinks of you.
Don't you have anything to say to me?
What now?
The coffee is good.
On the day of your farewell party, we won't get to be alone...
if we drink all night with everyone.
Mr. Park will probably ask us all to drink some more.
That's what farewell parties are like.
Everyone, don't even breathe, okay?
You're the one who should be careful. You're breathing so loud.
Gosh, stop it. Be quiet.
Mr. Cha, good luck.
Good luck.
She's here.
Why would you look at me from head to toe?
Didn't you know that I'm pretty?
- Have a seat. - That's okay.
Don't you have anything to say before everyone comes?
I think there's something I must hear from you.
I mean, you're meticulous about everything else.
Why are you so indifferent about this matter?
Was I mistaken?
What matter?
I'm talking about this matter.
About us.
So what matter are you talking about?
Hey, Cha Tae Jin, are you really going to keep going like this?
Gosh, I meant to hold back to the end, but I can't.
Are you going to run away like this, you jerk?
What?
Will you marry me or not?
Okay. I'll marry you.
I said, "I'll marry you."
You... You should have...
said that sooner.
Wait. There...
Goong Hwa, you're so aggressive.
- I'm impressed. - Congratulations, Officer Moo.
Good job, Officer Moo. That made me feel so good.
Why was everyone hiding there?
We meant to surprise you, but you surprised us.
Gosh, seriously.
Goong Hwa.
Would you marry me?
Good job!
