Gong Woo Jin.
Your name...
was Gong Woo Jin.
What if it's not?
What if that's not everything?
What if what you know...
isn't the whole story?
It's a recent memory for me, so I remember it clearly.
Back then...
at 17 years old...
you were...
[Episode 15: La Campanella, The Second Story]
[May 2005, Incheon International Airport]
Mom...
I was heading to Germany for my music college entrance exam
when I saw a little kid crying at the airport.
Mom.
Mom...
Kid, why are you by yourself?
- Mom. - Where's your mom?
- Mom. - Over there?
Don't cry. Come with me.
Mom.
Mom...
I asked where your mom is.
Why are we here?
Oh no, it's all over your face.
Chan. Chan...
- Chan! - Mom!
I told you not to leave my sight.
Don't you have any fear?
- You must have been scared. - Are you his mother?
I found him crying by himself.
Miss, thank you. Thank you very much.
Hey, Honey. I found him.
What a relief. Bye, kid.
Yeah, he was eating a donut by himself.
Wait a minute.
My violin.
Excuse me, did you see a violin case over there?
No, I didn't.
What do I do?
Miss. Did that violin case belong to you?
Yes.
A pretty male student asked where the information desk is, and took it there.
Some kids were messing with it while you were gone.
I guess he was worried that they'd break it.
What a relief.
Oh, I almost forgot. Who brought it here?
I want to thank him in person.
A male student in a brown school uniform returned it.
- A brown school uniform? - He was carrying a poster tube.
Hi, Hyun Jung. I'm here.
No way. Even if you'll be back in the summer, I should say goodbye to Chan.
Wait!
Yeah. Okay, I'll be right there.
Wait! Wait...
Wait!
Hi, Aunt.
Where are you? We checked our baggage. Get back here.
I chased after you to say thank you, but I lost you.
But I did see one thing.
The poster tube you were carrying.
It had Pororo stickers all over it.
That...
The person who returned the precious violin
that my mom left me, was you.
Thanks to you, I passed the entrance exam
but I was sad that I couldn't thank you.
I didn't think I'd ever see you again.
But...
I heard the sound of a small bell coming from somewhere.
I usually couldn't hear anything when I thought about music, but I heard it.
Oh, that Pororo! That uniform!
- Wait! - I couldn't believe it was you.
- It must have been your bike bell. - Wait!
Does he live in our neighborhood?
"Maybe we'll meet again. Maybe I'll see him again."
I kept waiting for you.
Huh? Pororo.
Miss, you didn't pay for that.
Oh yeah. I need to pay.
I'm sorry. I'll buy it next time.
Wait!
I'm going to give it to someone I'm really thankful to.
Please make it look exactly like this.
- Sure, no problem. - I brought that keychain everywhere.
"Maybe I'll meet him today."
"Maybe I'll see him tomorrow." I was hopeful.
We passed by each other a few more times
and every time, I thought you were...
beautiful.
I thought you were a beautiful person.
And after a while, whenever I thought about you...
my heart pounded louder and louder.
Just like a crescendo.
Paeng.
About that Crescendo...
What do you think his name is?
I'm so curious.
I prayed that I'd meet you before going to Germany
so I could thank you.
And then...
I actually saw you again.
That day...
on the bus.
Huh? Crescendo?
Oh no. Not this again.
Oh yeah. That.
Gosh, I'm so nervous.
How do I give this to him?
That's right. I should at least thank him.
This stop is Cheongan Station.
The next stop is Cheongan Intersection.
- Excuse me. - Yes?
Do you know where I should get off to get to Cheongan Art Hall?
Oh my gosh! I'm actually talking to him!
- Do you not know? - No, I do.
Um, the thing is...
there's no stop right in front of it. So...
You can get off at Cheongan Station or Cheongan Intersection.
Oh, Cheongan Station? Great. Thank you.
I was so nervous, I forgot to give this to him.
This stop is Cheongan Station.
The next stop is Cheongan Intersection.
Should I go back? Should I?
Yeah, let's go.
Don't get off at this stop. Get off at the next one.
Well...
I guess it doesn't really matter where you get off
but I think the next stop is a litter closer.
Oh. I see. Thank you.
And the truth is, I know you.
- Pardon? - Oh, I'm not a weirdo though.
Um, so the thing is, I have something to give you.
Hang on.
- Oh, Sloppy. - Huh? Oh, Soo Mi.
Who's this? Do you know him?
Wait!
Hello? Sloppy. Anyone there?
Soo Mi.
He's... he's...
What about him? Who is he...
Is he Crescendo?
Are you serious? How did that happen? Why were you together?
He said he knows me too.
- He said he knows me too! - Really? What do we do?
What do we do?
Look. It's pounding harder and harder.
It felt like my heart was about to burst out of my chest.
Hey, tell me everything.
Okay, so... Wait.
Okay, so what happened was...
And then...
the accident happened.
That doesn't change anything.
If I hadn't stopped you...
If I hadn't...
There were lots people on that bus.
Why do you think I asked you of all people?
I went to that practice room so many times that I could have gone blindfolded.
Why do you think I asked you?
No. You were going to get off...
No. I never pressed the bell.
That wasn't me.
I always got off at the next stop.
I got off at Cheongan Intersection
and then crossed the street.
There was a playground with beautiful flowers on the left side of the street.
I remember seeing roses in June and sunflowers in August.
At the end of that street was a grey building.
That was Cheongan Art Hall
where I always went to practice.
The orchestra practice room was at the end of the hall on the second floor.
I went there so many times that I could have gone blindfolded.
I was scared that you had left before I could tell you this.
I was scared you'd keep misunderstanding and keep blocking people out.
It wasn't your fault.
I would have gotten off at the next stop like I always had.
It may be very unfortunate
but it would have happened no matter what.
It wasn't your fault.
I noticed you first
I had a crush on you first...
and I liked you first.
Gong Woo Jin.
Your name was Gong Woo Jin.
I guess I wasn't the only one...
who was stuck at 17 years old for the last 13 years.
- Woo Seo Ri. - Yeah?
- Woo Seo Ri? - What?
- Woo Seo Ri. - Stop it.
Woo Seo Ri.
Oh, I almost forgot. I have something to give you.
It's about time.
If I had received this 13 years ago...
If I had met you 13 years ago
how nice would that have been?
When I woke up, I had such a hard time that I even thought...
"I wish I hadn't woken up."
"I wish I had kept sleeping."
"I wish that accident had never happened."
I looked back on it countless times.
But what's in the past will never change.
Regretting what has already happened will just keep me stuck in the past.
But since I can change my present...
Since I can change my future
I don't want to waste my time regretting the past.
I fell for you again.
I won't stay stuck either.
Let's end this intermission together.
Paeng!
Deok Goo, I'm sorry I worried you.
Oh, Jennifer. I'm sorry I worried you...
I'm sure you're very sorry.
So from now on...
I won't worry you ever again.
Hey, Deok Goo. I heard you've always known me.
Why didn't you tell me? You should have told me.
- Oh, Chan. - Oh, Chan.
I'm sorry for always worrying you as the foolish uncle I am.
I'm glad you're back, Uncle.
I'm fine.
I'm fine as long as you're back.
Here.
Why is it so hard to get hot chocolate from you?
Thank you.
Chan.
Let me explain what happened.
- You don't have to explain. - What?
I get it, so you don't have to say it.
And I know...
you won't leave ever again.
Geez, you're so much work, Mr. Gong. You're making me age faster.
I'm catching up to Deok Soo.
I feel like it was just yesterday when you asked me to buy you hot dogs.
When did you grow up so much, Nephew?
I've been taller than you since the second year of middle school.
That was good hot chocolate.
I'm going to sleep now.
Don't forget to brush your teeth.
Okay.
[The goal is to win! Don't think. Feel!]
11 o'clock?
Why did I sleep for so long?
Oh! I didn't wash my face.
Okay.
- Seo Ri went out. - Pardon?
She went out to play with Chan.
- Chan? - Can I play with Ma'am tomorrow?
We were supposed to do that before, but it didn't work out.
Is that okay?
He told me yesterday.
Aw, I wanted to see her. I should have woken up earlier.
"We are given hope and sleep in return for all of our worries."
By Voltaire.
- Pardon? - I felt like you were sleeping in
in return for the many worries you've had
so I just left you alone.
I should get back to recycling.
Oh, can I use those boxes?
Let's begin.
Is this where you wanted to go with me?
Why here of all places?
What is this? Did you forget? We were supposed to play together if I won.
- Did we do that yet? - No, we didn't.
That's right. That's what we're here to do.
Okay. But why did you choose a place that you come to all the time?
I'll explain why later. Ready?
Let's go to the first destination on Yoo Chan's tour.
Wow, what a nice view!
Right? You can see Paektu Mountain.
That's Mount Kumgang.
Oh, is it?
Well, they're both mountains.
Anyway, this view makes everything taste delicious.
Even bad-tasting things. Let's eat.
Okay.
- Damn it. - What is it?
I bit my tongue.
Oh no, did you bite your tongue?
- Don't make fun of me. - Okay, I won't.
- Eat your food. - Okay.
This is difficult. Not everyone can do it...
- Ma'am. - Pull!
Pull! Pull!
- Where did she learn that? - Pull!
You're good. I see potential.
- Would you like to join our rowing team? - Yes, I would!
- Yeah? Then pull! - Pull!
Pull harder!
Pull, pull!
Why are you saying that on a bike?
I'm so excited!
I wasn't allowed to ride bikes because I might hurt my hand.
This is my first time! Pull, pull!
Yeah, who cares? Pull, pull!
Pull, pull!
- Pull, pull! - Let's go!
Let's go!
Pull!
"When you know what you possess, you see what you should discard."
By Julie Morgenstern.
- Mr. Gong. - Yes?
Good job.
Well, I thought it was about time.
But you have a smudge under your nose.
A smudge?
- Is it gone? - Yes.
That's much better.
What is this? It's still there, isn't it?
I found this when I was cleaning Chan's room.
[Gook Mi Hyun]
Is that Seo Ri's aunt, by any chance?
Hello, Doctor.
You briefly saw our hospital's music treatment last time, didn't you?
- Oh, yes. - Well, practice has paid off.
I wouldn't call it a concert
but we're thinking of having a performance next month.
- So I was wondering... - We'll make you a beautiful stage.
I've received a lot of help from you, so I'm glad I can repay you for it.
Help? But I feel like someone else was more helpful than I was.
She must be very special
if you fell for her again thinking she was another person.
I think she is.
Even when I eat something that's not that special
it tastes better when she's there.
Even when the weather's not that special, the sky seems more blue when she's there.
Even when it's not that funny, I enjoy it a lot more.
I think she's special because she makes even not so special things feel special.
Why are you laughing?
It's just that your expression is...
How do I say it? It's comfortable and pretty.
Pretty?
Oh, I'm sorry. I'll take that back.
I shouldn't be the one to say that.
- Hello? This is Gong Woo Jin. - I'd like to meet.
- I have something to discuss. - Oh, sure.
Do you remember what you asked?
You asked why I chose a place that I always come to.
Rather than doing something like going to a nice restaurant on a scooter
which doesn't suit me
I wanted to go to a place that suits me, where I can be myself
so that I can talk to you in a comfortable and sincere manner.
That's why we came here.
What do you mean by that?
I...
like you a lot.
I...
like you a lot.
Not like how I like Deok Soo and Hae Bum.
I like you in a different way.
When I think about you...
my chest feels all itchy as if something's crawling on it...
and when you cry, my heart aches too.
When you smile, I smile, and when you're upset, I want to comfort you.
I want to protect you.
I'll be on a pro team in a few months.
So I'll be an adult soon. Put your trust in me. I'll protect you.
- But... - That's what I was going to say...
on the day of my win.
But you don't have to worry. It's all in the past now.
But I wanted to tell you anyway.
I felt like that was the only way for me to move on.
If I just keep it in, I'll continue to pretend like everything's okay.
You were my first love, Ma'am.
I want to properly move on from my first love.
That's why I'm telling you. I really want to be okay.
At first, I wanted to protect you because you were like a 17-year-old...
but you're a real adult now.
Oh, and thank you
for turning our Mr. Gong back into his old self.
Let's continue to be good friends...
and as for my uncle...
please keep liking him just as much as you do now.
I'm begging you.
What is this? I'm the one who should be crying right now.
It's not fair if you cry.
Didn't you see how quickly my ankle healed?
I recover faster than the average person.
I'll be okay soon.
I have some of these calluses...
on my heart now too.
I feel much better now.
I'm glad I told you.
Can you leave now? I want to exercise a little more before I go.
What is this? Don't be so clueless.
I need to cry a little more.
Didn't you say it felt like everyone you knew disappeared?
Well, you know someone now. Me.
- Welcome, Ma'am. - Thank you.
- Ma'am, this calls for... - Instant spicy rice cakes?
- Should we get some seaweed rolls too? - Seaweed rolls!
Seaweed rolls! Seaweed rolls!
Me too. I'm 17 years old too.
- No! - You startled me.
Who's 17 years old?
I'm 30.
It tickles! Don't pull there! Don't! Stop!
Don't pull there!
I'm glad you were my first friend after waking up.
Yeah!
Thank you for being someone I know.
I want to win first place at nationals and do something when I'm at my best.
Don't think. Feel!
You'll reach your goal. I have a good feeling.
- Don't think! Feel! - Don't think! Feel!
Hey, why are you still wearing those gloves? Are you dating your gloves?
Make fun of me all you want.
I hope your hands hurt even a little bit less.
But I really admire those hands of yours.
I'll be cheering you on. Don't think. Feel!
Then the person who paid her hospital fees for the last 11 years...
He must have found out about me through a detective agency.
If she meets him, she'll realize that her aunt and uncle didn't take care of her
and be disappointed.
Seo Ri already has an idea of what really happened.
She knows they cut off communication with her.
He wants to meet Seo Ri in person
but I don't want to make her feel confused by telling her myself.
I also don't want her feeling confused anymore.
As her friend.
Thank you for contacting me.
I think it's best that you talk it out with her instead.
[Kim Sang Shik]
Huh? It's my girlfriend.
Oh, it's Mister Gong Woo Jin.
Did you have fun without me with Chan...
I thought you would have, but it doesn't look that way.
Dot, dot, dot.
- Did you go somewhere? - I met with Doctor Kim Hyung Tae.
I had a feeling he was lying to protect me...
but I still wanted to believe him.
But I guess Uncle and Aunt really didn't pay for my hospital fees.
The truth is, I met with your aunt not long ago.
Aunt? How? Where? When...
But how do you know my aunt?
[Gook Mi Hyun]
But why didn't you tell me?
You even met with her, so why...
She didn't want to see me, did she?
[Gook Mi Hyun]
Then what about Uncle? Did he refuse to see me too?
- Did you meet him? - Sorry.
I haven't heard anything about your uncle.
Why did they...
I'm sure they had their reasons. I'm sure they'd be able to explain.
I have to ask her myself.
The phone is turned off...
Later. Let's try again later.
I was wondering why the picture inside my notebook
disappeared that day.
She saw it.
She knew I was awake, but she pretended like she didn't.
When did she abandon me? Before someone else paid for my hospital fees?
Why did she abandon me?
She's mean. She's ignoring me even after finding out that I'm awake.
You probably know everything.
You probably know why Uncle and Aunt did that...
and exactly what happened.
Paeng. You probably know better than anyone.
[Crescendo]
Hello?
Okay. I'll be right out.
Seo Ri.
Were you the one...
who caused the accident?
I'm sorry.
- I'm sorry. - Why did you do that?
Because of you, my friend and I...
I'm really sorry.
And thank you.
Thank you for waking up.
I was going to turn myself in after you woke up
but I thought I should apologize first.
That doesn't change anything.
Apologizing won't bring my friend back to life or give me those years back.
I don't accept your apology. You're only doing it to make yourself feel better.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
That day, before I drove...
I drank.
The rain reminds me of...
I was too drunk to tie it up properly.
I realized I caused that accident only after I saw it on the news.
I saw that people got hurt and killed.
I saw how horrific it was with my own two eyes.
I did something horrible...
but I was scared...
so I didn't have the courage to turn myself in.
And then I found out that one of the injured students...
was in a coma...
- It looks like shock. - Please save our Seo Ri.
Hurry. Please save her.
What do we do? What do we do about our Seo Ri?
I'm sorry.
And thank you for waking up.
Was I abandoned before you started paying for my hospital fees?
If you watched over me, you should know.
When did Uncle and Aunt abandon me?
I don't know that much.
After you moved hospitals, I didn't see your family around anymore.
We can't wait any longer.
It's been two months since her guardians last paid.
If this continues, we won't have any choice.
I decided to do it.
I thought that was the least I could do.
If you hadn't done that...
my friend wouldn't have died
and I wouldn't have been unconscious.
I wouldn't have lost my Uncle and Aunt either.
Why did you do that?
It's wrong to drink and drive!
So why did you do that? Why? Why? Why?
Seo Ri.
I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
- Jennifer. - Jennifer.
Kim Tae Jin.
You know that name, don't you?
You must
since you killed him too.
You killed my husband.
If it weren't for you... If it weren't for you...
my husband...
and my child...
My child wouldn't have...
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Jennifer.
Listen carefully. What song is this?
It's a lullaby...
What is this? Am I going to be a father?
You're amazing. You're amazing!
- Stop it, Tae Jin. - I'm going to be a father...
I'm going to be a father! Wow!
The other deceased victim...
besides your friend...
That person...
was my husband.
I might have lost my husband to an accident...
but I was the one...
who killed my child.
Because I couldn't overcome my sadness.
Because I couldn't handle my emotions.
Because I couldn't be okay.
Oh no, you're all wet. Take this.
Rest here for a bit, and then use this to get home.
Thanks to a stranger...
who helped me that day...
And then I found a way to endure it.
If I stayed home, I would have thought about my husband
and my child...
and fallen apart again...
so I read one book after another.
I don't have the right to be okay...
and I don't have the right to miss anything either.
I don't have the right
to have my own house...
or my own family.
I'm fine, Seo Ri.
- I'm always... - You don't have to be okay today.
You don't have to be okay today.
I'm here to turn myself in.
It finally feels like fall.
I heard even the most painful emotions pass with time.
I heard we can choose to turn away from them and leave them as regret
or make them into a memory that we'll want to revisit.
Someone I really like told me that.
Isn't that nice?
Come to think of it, we've talked a lot out here.
I lived with my eyes and heart closed shut for a long time.
But thanks to the things you've told me...
I became more courageous and changed a lot.
It can't be hidden by your stiff way of speaking.
I can see and feel that you're warmer than anyone I know.
I'm glad I met you.
Thank you for staying by my side.
You definitely have the right.
I hope you smile when you're happy and cry when you're sad from now on.
I hope you don't live with your eyes closed anymore.
I should head to bed to prepare for the new day.
[Gook Mi Hyun]
Keep this with you.
That's right. Take a taxi back to the hotel.
Don't get lost and go through all that trouble.
You can find us as long as you have this, so keep it safe.
That's what you said.
Huh? What are you doing?
So I threw it out.
I don't want to keep having hope that we'll meet again.
But I can't do it.
I sound stupid, don't I?
No.
Oh, Ma'am.
- Are you going back to work today? - Yes.
Huh? What's this?
Are you avoiding eye contact with me because you feel sorry?
What is this? Should you be this tacky or not?
Should you or should you not?
I shouldn't.
But why are you heading out so early?
Oh, I have to start preparing for the next competition.
Oh yeah. You were amazing at the last competition. You're number one.
I'm not number one.
I'd say I'm the best in the country though.
Wow, you're so cool. Then you must be aiming for first place again.
What's the point of overthinking it?
Don't you know Bruce Lee's famous quote? Don't think. Feel!
You just have to go with how you feel. F-E-E-L.
Wow, you know how to spell it now. You wrote F-I-L last time.
I only did that to be funny.
- I knew how to spell it. - I don't think you did.
I thought you were a nice person, but you have a way of being mean for no reason.
Oh, I should go. See you tonight.
Chan.
Remember. Don't think! Feel!
See you.
- Hey, Yoo! - Chan!
- You're here. - Huh? You look relieved.
- Did something good happen? - I know. You pooped, didn't you?
Why are you talking about poop? That's not it.
Wow, aren't those bronze medals heavy?
- Not at all. - Not at all.
Really? Then should we win another one at the next competition?
- Yeah. Let's win another one! - Yeah. The year's not over yet!
- Shall we go for it? - Medal! Medal! Medal!
Let's go!
A hospital concert? I like the idea of it. I'm in.
Then I'll go ahead and make a rough sketch of the design.
Okay. Since we took a nice break, shall we get back to work?
- Yes! - Yes!
Oh, you just kissed. Ms. Junior drank out of that.
Who cares? She's my girlfriend.
Woo Jin, when you joke, please make it sound like one.
It's not a joke though.
What's with those flushed cheeks?
Whoa. Are you serious?
Gosh, you're so clueless. What am I supposed to do with such a slow employee?
Oh yeah. I hired him, didn't I? Damn it.
Are you two seriously dating?
No way. I thought you were interested in me.
Hey, Jin Hyun. Who do you think you're going after?
But she always looked at me in such a tender way.
No, I didn't.
What is this? I thought Woo Jin and Hee Soo would be partners forever.
So how could you two...
Who are you to partner me up with Gong Woo Jin?
Oh, Seo Ri. Um, I'm not saying your boyfriend is weird.
He's just not compatible with me. I hope you didn't misunderstand.
Wow, you really never know with men and women.
I really thought she liked me.
She likes me.
I saw your flyer.
Are you looking for the people who lived at the house with the Baerong tree?
What's the matter?
I remember Gook Mi Hyun from the supermarket.
Gook is a pretty rare surname.
Do you collect points?
- What's your phone number? - 3-1...
7-7. Gook Mi Hyun. Is it for delivery?
- It is. I live up the hill... - Unit 13, the Baerong tree house?
Oh, yes.
She was a regular for a few years, so I remember her.
Many deliveries went to that house too.
We already knew she moved 11 years ago.
- Do you know what happened after? - The last thing I heard
was that she got a divorce.
- A divorce? - I didn't see it in person though.
Someone from the neighborhood saw them at the courthouse.
That's how I found out.
[Corporation, K&J Trading, Bankrupt]
Her uncle must have been the legal agent, so why did her aunt sell the house?
No way. They had such a good relationship.
So why...
There's something I didn't tell you
because I thought it'd just make you confused when I have no proof.
[K&J Trading, Bankrupt]
Why did Uncle's company...
[Real Estate Trade Contract, Gook Mi Hyun...]
And why did Aunt sell the house...
Maybe their divorce and you seeing your uncle on the day of the accident
has something to do with this.
That's just my guess though.
It must have been because of me.
I heard families get exhausted when someone is sick for a long time.
Maybe Uncle and Aunt had a hard time because of me.
Maybe Uncle's company went under because of my hospital fees.
What do we do? It must be because of me. Because of me...
Don't say it's because of you. We're not sure of anything yet.
Don't blame yourself, okay?
I get it now.
Since Aunt and I have no blood relation
she no longer wanted to be involved with me.
Yeah. That's definitely possible.
Then what about Uncle? He got a divorce and went bankrupt.
Is he doing all right?
I'm so worried.
I want to talk to Aunt. She's the only one I can ask.
You might get hurt.
I don't care as long as I find out about Uncle.
[Temporarily Closed]
Maybe she left just in case I showed up like this.
Wait here. I'll ask around.
I'm going with you.
I have a quick question.
Do you know when that flower shop closed?
Thank you.
