The people in the olden days wished upon a lunar eclipse.
If you wish as sincerely as to bring the sun and the moon together,
the wish will come true.
this weekend on a lunar eclipse, everyone?
Wishing sincerely that it will actually come true.
Grandfather, can you answer one wish for me?
I wish I had a friend.
Someone who can hold my hand warmly.
A real friend.
Wish. . .
My wish.
~Final Episode~
A lunar eclipse?
It was only a guess at first, but that seems to be the cause.
It is a lunar eclipse that happens twice over a hundred-day period.
The sundial was created with ties to that lunar eclipse.
I think that affected the change.
Then..
Is that the second lunar eclipse out of the hundred-day period?
The change that was made during the first lunar eclipse
would be undone during the second lunar eclipse.
It is a hundred days dream that will be over like that at the end.
Don't come here.
Stay where you are.
Have you been well?
Yes, I am fine, what about you?
I had a lot of pain.
And I'm still in pain.
I'm sorry for hurting you.
Why?
What do you have to feel sorry for?
I made a wish.
To have a real friend.
I prayed very hard.
I think that's why my wish was granted.
That must be why you became an adult.
Don't say things like that! I'm the one who's sorry!
That the friend you trusted was a child...
the one who could not do anything for you...
because I was only 14.
You being 14 is nothing shameful.
Because you were next to me
that's why all this was possible.
I...
found a way for you to return to being 14.
In front of the sun clock, the day we first met
what you saw was right.
But it wasn't the sundial.
That day was
when the sun and the moon on the sundial became one
and the sun and the moon in the skies became one too.
That's why you were able to become an adult.
Soon...
the day is coming.
the day that you can return to being 14.
I think sending you away...
on that day...
is the last thing I can do for you.
It was Tae Ri...
What I saw that day was not a fantasy...
it was Tae Ri.
No,
what did you mean?
Are you saying that you are going to continue on with the designation of the sundial as a national treasure?
As we are funded by public taxes, the Artifacts Committee
cannot just ignore public opinion blatantly.
Then
What I am saying is that you should make this outcry an opportunity.
You should help out with the designation process and reopen Dae Dong Museum.
For now, that is probably the way to help save the Group.
You can restore the tainted image of the Group.
An Adoption Agency?
Yes.
It is completely non-profit and he is even preparing a program to help adopted children abroad find job employement.
From your point of view, what do you think he is trying to do?
It is probably a measure against the immense public dismay of your dismissal.
And the adoption agency would be affiliated Dae Dong Museum.
It would be a lot of help in the designation process of the sundial. It will be good for us in the philanthropy area.
Then is Uncle completely taking his hands off of the museum?
Currently, the Group has been in the worst situation possible with the closing of the museum.
Stock prices crashing and boycotts.
So pretend you don't know anything and take the adoption agency offer, please.
Before that,
Please help our Eun Dong to come home safely.
In good health and not be injured anywhere,
please protect my son.
President, are you alright?
We were so worried after we read about the museum in the papers.
Everything is resolved now, so things are going back to where they once were.
Oh my, that's great.
Now if our Eun Dong were to come back home,
Mom, may I take a look Eun Dong's room?
Eun Dong's room?
Yes.
Today, I suddenly became curious
Eun Dong.
Did you just go see your grandfather?
Right.
Thanks for that day.
You obviously look your best when you are around your fans.
I don't think so.
I feel the best when I am with you.
What am I supposed to do?
Soon Shim, tell the truth.
Even if I return back to the 14 year old me, do you think that now is when you'll be the happiest?
What are you talking about? You're going back?
You know it, right? That even if I go back, you're not the one.
Whether I'm 14 or 25, do you think you can only see me and only like me?
Geum Eun Dong. You're not really going back, are you?
Why?
A reliable shoulder I can lean on, a wide and comforting chest...
Also,
the 14-year old innocence that watches over only me.
The you that encompasses all these things right now, I like it so much.
Soon Shim, the way I look at it,
you don't need a 14 year old Eun Dong, but a real adult man who can take care of you and protect you.
You can do that.
The adult that I need
can't you be that from now on?
It's not me, Soon Shim.
Good bye.
I think this is where you have to be.
Your fourteen-year old world where there is your innocent and prettiest self.
You are going to start step by step here.
Until you become a real grown-up.
The precious life you have to go through.
You're saying that this is just a feeling of an instant?
President, I'm here.
Now,
I'm going to tell Tae Ri all about the accident.
I have received my worth's punishment.
And my promise to protect Tae Ri,
I have done my best.
Therefore, I ask a favor of you once again.
Please accept me now.
I want to be by Tae Ri's side.
What's going on?
This champagne,
This was with whenever we would talk.
Tae Ri, don't be too surprised by
what I'm about to tell you.
Who is this?
A driver.
On the day of your parent's accident,
He is my father.
Choi Seung Jae, what are you talking about?
Everything was a coincidence.
My father, that night out of all other nights..
How he ran into your parent's car.
It sounds like a lie how everything was coincidental.
Since when have you known about this?
In Milan,
the night before the day I left you.
I heard it from the President for the first time.
That's why the President asked me to leave you.
He couldn't stand it any longer that the son of a man
who made you all alone in this world was by your side.
Everything he said is right.
That's why..
without saying anything with feelings of repaying you for the wrongdoing.
Then..
He promised me that I will be able to see you for sure if I did that.
In a situtation where I had to leave you,
the only person who grabbed my hand
was your uncle.
You should've refused!
And you should have told me!
If you had told me from the start, none of this would have happened!
The fact that the person who made you all alone in this world is my father.
I couldn't possibly say it.
Then..
Then why now..
Because losing you
Tae Ri.
The things I had.
Only one thing -
that is the only thing I want to do.
You don't have to answer me now.
Tae Ri. . .
Even though we took a huge detour,
start over with me.
I'm sorry I took so long.
I missed you.
Is this the only way you can resolve this?
You're right.
And my heart. . .
Still reacts to you.
Aren't you curious about why I left you?
Don't you want to know why I had to do what I did?
The person who made you all alone in this world
is in fact my father.
I couldn't possibly say it myself.
How did things turn out this way..
Why in the world did they turn out like this?
Where were you all day without even eating anything?
I was at the hospital to see my grandfather.
How's your grandfather?
I am nervous about him.
I feel like at this pace, I will lose my great-grandfather, dad, and mom.
Hey, Coach, Tae Ri told me the method to change.
Really? You brat, what are you telling me that now?
I just found out today.
Eun Dong, you're going to do it, right? You have to do it this time.
Coach.
Of course!
First of all, it is right that you and Tae Ri have to hug in front of the sundial, right?
Yeah.
Good.
It is a lunar eclipse.
The moment when the sun and the moon become one under the same sky.
You can join the spectacle tomorrow at sunset.
Tomorrow.
What?
I'm going to go back tomorrow.
It's tomorrow.
The day when we say our good-byes in front of the sundial.
Why did you ask to see me?
I wanted to eat with you uncle for the last time.
You are my only family member left.
Are you still talking about family?
I heard that you were creating an adoption agency.
It's not for you.
I know already.
That's why I want to give this to you in return.
It's the note promising that I will give up the inheritance I told you before that I would give to you
and a request for government ownership of the museum.
You this. . .
This is a little too much for a joke.
You were so eager to keep the museum
but you want to turn the museum over to the government?
That..
What about you?
I'm going to leave.
What?
Uncle,
even though I have resented you,
I have never thought of you as a stranger.
I really wanted a family and always have been longing for it.
But I think I didn't really know how to earn your approval.
There is one thing I really want to ask you.
Why
I really was going to do my best.
That was the problem.
And
I was always the second because of your father.
But you, who is not related to my brother at all whatsoever,
have acquired only his best qualities.
Like as if you were his real daughter.
I really hated that!
When you later grow up,
I felt that my son would be the second one because of you.
I was always the second son to my father, but I couldn't stand the fact
that my son would be the second one because you would beat him.
Since you prepared this in honor of our last meal together,
let's at least eat before we part ways.
I'll eat well.
Elder.
Your ever so good-looking face is so skinny now like a piece of dried fish.
Madame Baek.
I think our greed has brought us troubles.
The thing with Eun Dong leaving home also.
And the arranged marriage thing.
Soon Shim's grandmother.
Our Eun Dong leaving home
is all our fault.
On the other hand,
I have a lot of things to be sorry about for being so mean to Soon Shim.
She must have hurt a lot because she grew up with her grandmother and without her parents.
Thank you for understanding.
Elder.
Marriage should last forever, so let's let them marry whomever they choose.
You have such a kind heart.
Oh my.
Madame Baek.
The fact that you absolutely need someone who understands your heart.
What do you mean?
Why is he like that?
Madame Baek. After we take care of the kids' betrothal problem,
we..
How indecent.
Aigo!
Eun Dong,
Will you be okay by yourself? Do you want me to come with you?
It's for real this time, so I'll go by myself.
I also have to say my last good-bye to Tae Ri.
What did she say?
You're not going to run away at the critical moment, right?
You must not become weak!
Coach, don't worry. I'm neither going to run away or hide like that.
And I shouldn't either.
Eun Dong.
Pardon?
Thanks for living with me as my brother all this time. I wasn't the best big brother to you, but you were the best younger brother.
Even though it was for a short time, thank you for coming into my life.
Coach, Thank you.
Tae Ri.
Since when, you came here?
Just a few minutes ago.
You already
made up your mind, right?
What about you?
I am ready.
Can I hold your hand?
Hold my hand and have courage.
and settle down your wavering heart.
We'll do great.
Yes.
After I make a promise
for the last time.
A promise?
Miss Hongsil.
Hongsil, promise me one thing.
What kind of a promise?
Do you know what today is?
It's a really pretty day when the sun and the moon become one.
And
Send your brother back?
Yeah..
He is going to back to the world where he really belongs.
And,
the world I belong is you, Na Hong Shil.
Honshil, live with me.
What?
Actually, the situation right now is the worst case possible.
I had to meet you, who doesn't know anything, in the midst of this whirlpool of secrets
which really breaks my heart.
even if I have to sell bean sprouts for a living,
Hong Shil, I will make you happy.
I, Hwang Min Gook, am confident in that you will neither go hungry or cry.
I will keep this from now on.
Because this is Tae Ri.
What is this?
My fourteen-year history.
This ring is made out of a medal I got from putting in all my fourteen-year swimming career.
I made this ring because I wanted to give this to a woman I want to protect and treasure forever.
I think it has found its true owner.
Tae Ri.
Will you be the owner of my history?
No.
Once you return to your fourteen-year old self, you will have
many opportunities and you will get to meet lots of people.
And among those, you might find a precious woman
whom you might feel like it is worth putting your life on her.
But if I have your fourteen-year history now,
you will regret it for sure.
No.
I have no regrets.
But if I hug you here and go back to being fourteen,
I might regret it then.
Honestly, I hate to go now.
I don't want to part from you.
Because starting from tomorrow, I can't see you,
hear your voice,
or hug you when you are going through a hard time.
But the reason why I am not scared to go back is because I trust myself.
My heart that likes you, Tae Ri.
I believe my sincerity.
I can't even hug you now.
I really want to hug you,
but I shouldn't.
We have to say our good-byes now.
Let's smile when we are doing so.
Confidently.
Tae Ri.
Thank you.
I heard that people eat and live on memories.
But I
that even when I go back, by reliving that memory llttle by little,
I feel like I will grow up to be a great grown-up.
So promise me.
That you will definitely meet me again.
Thank you.
For coming into my life.
Thank you too.
Tae Ri.
I'm leaving.
Good-bye,
my friend.
Few Years Later.
Kick! Kick!
That's right. Pike your legs more!
Don't take a breath!
Okay.
Hey.
What's up with you guys?
Come up!
Swimmer Geum Eun Dong, who is anticipated to lead Korea in its future swimming career, has successfully finished his student teacher practice.
Swimmer Geum Eun Dong, who was surprisingly dilligent and warm-hearted for a international sports star and has concluded his one-month teaching practice,
only looks forward to being successful once again at the Milan FINA World Aquatics Championships.
The entire country is looking forward to Geum Eun Dong breaking his own world record he set at the Olympics.
What's my next appointment?
When we arrive at the airport, you will have a short interview at the sponsor booth. After that, you can go through the VIP entrance and get on your plane comfortably.
How much time do we have left?
Taeri, happy birthday.
I didn't bring a gift. Instead, I'm going to give you a gold medal.
Korea - The Year of Korean Tourism.
Time flows on by
Whenever I am
by your side
the you who was there
Whenever you speak, how much will it hurt?
Goodbye, my love. Goodbye to you.
I will probably have to get rid of all the unspoken memories.
That I loved you. That I thank you.
In front of you, I smile as I say goodbye again.
Someday we'll meet again.
Mamma mia!
Tae Ri.
I missed you.
