EPISODE 3

5
00:00:15,371 --> 00:00:16,789
Have you calmed down?

6
00:00:18,541 --> 00:00:19,625
Yes.

7
00:00:21,377 --> 00:00:24,171
Aren't you in pain?

8
00:00:24,672 --> 00:00:25,923
I'm fine.

9
00:00:26,841 --> 00:00:29,468
Don't lie. You were beaten.

10
00:00:51,207 --> 00:00:52,959
We're here. This is my place.

11
00:01:03,928 --> 00:01:05,012
Is it you, Sim-deok?

12
00:01:07,265 --> 00:01:08,099
Yes, Father.

13
00:01:30,249 --> 00:01:33,753
I'm sorry. There's not much
that we can offer to our guests.

14
00:01:37,546 --> 00:01:38,463
By the way,

15
00:01:39,047 --> 00:01:40,340
what happened to your face?

16
00:01:41,925 --> 00:01:45,053
He got a little scratch.
Don't worry about it.

17
00:01:46,388 --> 00:01:48,015
It doesn't look like a small scratch.

18
00:01:50,350 --> 00:01:52,978
Excuse me, sir. What's your relationship
with our older sister?

19
00:01:58,942 --> 00:01:59,860
We are...

20
00:02:00,444 --> 00:02:02,404
Where are your manners, Gi-seong?

21
00:02:03,196 --> 00:02:06,074
I'm sorry. My brother is a bit immature.

22
00:02:08,326 --> 00:02:09,327
Come here.

23
00:02:09,745 --> 00:02:12,539
Come on, aren't you curious?
Mother, aren't you?

24
00:02:14,124 --> 00:02:16,543
I'll let you two talk.

25
00:02:23,091 --> 00:02:25,010
Your siblings are bright and energetic.

26
00:02:25,552 --> 00:02:27,679
And your parents seem warmhearted as well.

27
00:02:28,722 --> 00:02:30,223
They're my pillars of strength.

28
00:02:30,682 --> 00:02:32,934
Once we return, I should be theirs.

29
00:02:36,688 --> 00:02:39,065
It must have been difficult
for your family to live in Tokyo.

30
00:02:39,816 --> 00:02:40,984
You're not well-off...

31
00:02:44,780 --> 00:02:45,864
I'm sorry.

32
00:02:46,073 --> 00:02:47,657
The same goes for you too.

33
00:02:48,617 --> 00:02:50,827
You don't have much,
but you chip in for the play.

34
00:02:54,539 --> 00:02:55,749
Hold still for a second.

35
00:03:32,661 --> 00:03:35,539
There's a place I'd like to go with you.

36
00:03:36,748 --> 00:03:40,001
After your wounds heal,
could you spare me some time?

37
00:04:00,546 --> 00:04:02,339
I can't see myself wearing those hats.

38
00:04:03,007 --> 00:04:05,801
It's as if I'm advertising myself
as a modern woman.

39
00:04:06,093 --> 00:04:08,220
It seems too ostentatious.
It's embarrassing.

40
00:04:08,512 --> 00:04:10,139
They don't look that pretty either.

41
00:04:11,015 --> 00:04:13,309
I'm not sure. I like those hats.

42
00:04:14,518 --> 00:04:15,352
Really?

43
00:04:18,981 --> 00:04:22,443
There was something I was curious about.

44
00:04:23,194 --> 00:04:25,529
It's about the poem I saw in your room.

45
00:04:25,738 --> 00:04:28,157
At the end, it said, "Soosan."

46
00:04:28,491 --> 00:04:29,408
What is that?

47
00:04:30,784 --> 00:04:33,078
It's the pen name I use when I write.

48
00:04:33,662 --> 00:04:35,164
Mine is "Soosun."

49
00:04:35,414 --> 00:04:37,416
Kim Soosan. Yun Soosun.

50
00:04:38,042 --> 00:04:40,127
We share a lot in common.

51
00:04:50,763 --> 00:04:53,098
GYEONGSEONG RECORD SHOP

52
00:05:01,941 --> 00:05:05,194
"Waves of the Danube" by Ion Ivanovici.

53
00:05:06,070 --> 00:05:07,488
It's my favorite song.

54
00:05:09,365 --> 00:05:10,616
It's beautiful.

55
00:05:11,492 --> 00:05:14,912
By the way, where was it
that you wanted to go with me?

56
00:05:23,433 --> 00:05:25,268
After singing in the practice room
all along,

57
00:05:25,351 --> 00:05:27,604
it was nerve-racking to sing
in front of an audience.

58
00:05:28,730 --> 00:05:31,816
At the same time, I felt emotional...

59
00:05:32,025 --> 00:05:33,818
to be singing on-stage.

60
00:05:36,029 --> 00:05:38,031
And then, a desire sparked inside of me.

61
00:05:38,114 --> 00:05:40,617
"I want to become the best soprano
in Joseon

62
00:05:41,117 --> 00:05:42,994
and sing on a bigger stage.

63
00:05:43,912 --> 00:05:45,955
I also want more people to hear me sing."

64
00:05:48,041 --> 00:05:49,918
It's my dream to sing on that stage.

65
00:05:51,544 --> 00:05:52,545
If I get the opportunity

66
00:05:54,255 --> 00:05:55,882
to perform here someday,

67
00:05:58,426 --> 00:06:01,221
would you come and watch me?

68
00:06:04,307 --> 00:06:06,184
Help me not to be nervous

69
00:06:06,851 --> 00:06:08,353
and do well in front of the audience.

70
00:06:11,898 --> 00:06:12,774
I will.

71
00:06:21,658 --> 00:06:22,910
Let's go.

72
00:06:23,035 --> 00:06:25,579
Since you came here with me,
dinner's on me.

73
00:06:25,704 --> 00:06:26,872
Let's go.

74
00:06:44,097 --> 00:06:46,516
I was blabbering about my dream,
but I didn't ask about yours.

75
00:06:47,100 --> 00:06:48,185
What's your dream?

76
00:06:51,521 --> 00:06:54,566
I'm not sure.
I've never thought about such a thing.

77
00:06:54,650 --> 00:06:57,319
Dreams don't always have to be grand.

78
00:06:57,611 --> 00:06:59,780
What gives you joy?

79
00:06:59,863 --> 00:07:02,157
Try to think about
what makes you happiest.

80
00:07:05,452 --> 00:07:08,538
I guess it'd be when I write

81
00:07:08,664 --> 00:07:10,666
and when others read my writings.

82
00:07:11,208 --> 00:07:13,961
And to write until my last day.

83
00:07:14,962 --> 00:07:17,589
-I think that's it.
-You can always do that.

84
00:07:24,471 --> 00:07:26,890
Hurry up, and finish that glass.
We have somewhere to go.

85
00:07:32,938 --> 00:07:34,439
I should throw farther.

86
00:07:46,535 --> 00:07:49,162
What are you doing? Is this a joke to you?

87
00:07:56,336 --> 00:07:57,713
Now, we're talking.

88
00:08:06,555 --> 00:08:07,848
Which idiot threw the rock?

89
00:08:08,348 --> 00:08:09,266
Hey, you two!

90
00:08:09,349 --> 00:08:10,434
Stop!

91
00:08:41,465 --> 00:08:42,716
You two, stop!

92
00:08:42,799 --> 00:08:44,885
-I think they went that way!
-Let's go!

93
00:08:50,307 --> 00:08:51,600
Stop! Stop running.

94
00:08:52,142 --> 00:08:53,101
Stop!

95
00:10:09,677 --> 00:10:10,886
We should go.

96
00:10:26,110 --> 00:10:30,656
TRAMS TO NAMDAEMUN

97
00:10:31,449 --> 00:10:32,450
By the way,

98
00:10:33,075 --> 00:10:35,661
since we're the same age,
let's address each other casually.

99
00:10:35,995 --> 00:10:38,581
I'll keep calling you by your first name.

100
00:10:40,416 --> 00:10:41,292
Later.

101
00:10:45,504 --> 00:10:47,423
I actually have something to say.

102
00:10:52,011 --> 00:10:53,220
Never mind.

103
00:10:53,304 --> 00:10:54,805
I'll tell you once we arrive in Tokyo.

104
00:11:00,581 --> 00:11:02,458
-Ms. Yun.
-Yes?

105
00:11:03,125 --> 00:11:06,587
I invited the troupe to my house in Mokpo.

106
00:11:08,339 --> 00:11:10,549
We're spending the night there
before returning to Tokyo.

107
00:11:11,550 --> 00:11:12,551
You should come.

108
00:11:13,677 --> 00:11:15,513
To your home?

109
00:11:17,223 --> 00:11:18,390
Please come.

110
00:11:30,027 --> 00:11:31,278
I'll get going then.

111
00:11:31,904 --> 00:11:32,947
Okay.

112
00:11:38,577 --> 00:11:39,870
Goodbye.

113
00:12:11,131 --> 00:12:12,758
How could that be pretty?

114
00:12:20,112 --> 00:12:22,614
GYEONGSEONG

115
00:12:22,698 --> 00:12:24,283
She's running a bit late.

116
00:12:24,700 --> 00:12:25,617
Hey!

117
00:12:27,494 --> 00:12:29,079
Do something about your hair.

118
00:12:29,997 --> 00:12:31,540
Sim-deok! Over here!

119
00:12:32,207 --> 00:12:34,084
I'm sorry to have made you all wait.

120
00:12:34,710 --> 00:12:36,336
You look so gorgeous.

121
00:12:36,795 --> 00:12:38,714
You have no idea how long
we've waited for you.

122
00:12:38,964 --> 00:12:40,382
I'm so sorry.

123
00:12:46,889 --> 00:12:47,890
Let's go.

124
00:13:23,873 --> 00:13:26,292
-The air is so fresh here.
-I know.

125
00:13:29,671 --> 00:13:32,257
I thought U-jin
was a poor, self-supporting student.

126
00:13:32,340 --> 00:13:33,550
No way.

127
00:13:34,008 --> 00:13:36,052
He's the son
of the wealthiest family in Mokpo.

128
00:13:51,401 --> 00:13:52,902
This place looks like a painting.

129
00:13:53,611 --> 00:13:54,696
It looks amazing.

130
00:14:01,744 --> 00:14:03,162
Hello.

131
00:14:08,126 --> 00:14:09,294
These are my friends.

132
00:14:09,377 --> 00:14:11,880
We study in Tokyo together.

133
00:14:19,429 --> 00:14:21,723
You should greet your father first,

134
00:14:22,515 --> 00:14:23,725
my dear husband.

135
00:14:39,324 --> 00:14:40,658
Please follow me.

136
00:15:14,192 --> 00:15:15,902
All right then.

137
00:15:16,736 --> 00:15:19,948
We'll now begin our disbanding ceremony
in the form of a small concert.

138
00:15:20,490 --> 00:15:21,407
Please applaud.

139
00:15:27,914 --> 00:15:31,084
First, we'll hear from Myeong-hui.

140
00:15:32,752 --> 00:15:34,045
Actually, please stay seated.

141
00:15:35,046 --> 00:15:37,340
We'll hear from Sim-deok first.

142
00:15:37,423 --> 00:15:39,008
Give her a big hand!

143
00:15:42,345 --> 00:15:43,888
Louder!

144
00:15:44,472 --> 00:15:46,224
Sim-deok, please sing us a song.

145
00:16:42,864 --> 00:16:45,533
I'm sorry. My voice seems to be hoarse.

146
00:16:46,117 --> 00:16:48,077
You sang throughout the tour,
so I understand.

147
00:16:49,287 --> 00:16:50,663
Sim-deok, why don't you rest?

148
00:16:52,206 --> 00:16:54,125
Nan-pa, show us what you've got.

149
00:16:54,709 --> 00:16:56,169
Sure.

150
00:17:07,346 --> 00:17:08,181
How about the song

151
00:17:08,765 --> 00:17:11,768
that U-jin said was too sad
to play on tour?

152
00:17:11,851 --> 00:17:13,019
Oh, that one.

153
00:17:14,896 --> 00:17:15,772
Sure thing.

154
00:18:41,149 --> 00:18:43,025
-Thank you.
-It was so much fun.

155
00:18:43,109 --> 00:18:44,610
-We had fun.
-Thank you for having us.

156
00:18:45,111 --> 00:18:46,529
I wonder what urgent issue came up

157
00:18:46,612 --> 00:18:49,240
that Sim-deok had to only leave a note
and head home.

158
00:18:49,824 --> 00:18:51,159
I'm sure she had a good reason.

159
00:18:53,661 --> 00:18:55,371
When will you go back to Tokyo?

160
00:18:56,164 --> 00:18:57,665
I'm thinking about staying for a while.

161
00:18:58,249 --> 00:18:59,417
I'll see you in Tokyo then.

162
00:19:00,293 --> 00:19:01,502
Sure.

163
00:19:35,411 --> 00:19:37,747
I told you not to do anything foolish,

164
00:19:37,830 --> 00:19:40,625
but you've been running around
with clowns and writing literature.

165
00:19:41,542 --> 00:19:43,294
You've been living like a yahoo.

166
00:19:44,795 --> 00:19:45,838
I apologize.

167
00:19:50,409 --> 00:19:51,326
U-jin.

168
00:19:53,120 --> 00:19:55,205
You are the eldest son of this family

169
00:19:55,288 --> 00:19:56,748
and the successor to our business.

170
00:19:58,041 --> 00:19:59,459
Keep this in your mind.

171
00:20:00,460 --> 00:20:03,380
Quit fooling around writing literature
and being a patriot.

172
00:20:03,463 --> 00:20:07,300
Just think about
taking over the family business one day.

173
00:20:14,349 --> 00:20:15,600
Yes, Father.

174
00:20:20,188 --> 00:20:23,817
SANGJIJEONG

175
00:20:38,206 --> 00:20:39,207
U-jin.

176
00:20:50,802 --> 00:20:52,387
I was too busy earlier

177
00:20:52,470 --> 00:20:56,308
to hand over the items
your guests forgot to pack

178
00:20:56,892 --> 00:20:57,976
when they left.

179
00:20:58,560 --> 00:21:01,813
I'll deliver them when I get there.

180
00:21:01,897 --> 00:21:03,190
U-jin,

181
00:21:03,273 --> 00:21:05,483
it's been a while since you came home.

182
00:21:06,234 --> 00:21:09,613
I humbly suggest that you refrain
from activities your father hates.

183
00:21:11,323 --> 00:21:14,993
Your father wishes you to devote yourself
to the family business

184
00:21:15,076 --> 00:21:17,162
after you finish your studies
and return home,

185
00:21:17,829 --> 00:21:21,374
If he finds out
that you still write literature,

186
00:21:21,499 --> 00:21:22,792
he'll be deeply disappointed.

187
00:21:33,887 --> 00:21:34,930
Isn't it...

188
00:21:36,431 --> 00:21:37,891
hard for you?

189
00:21:39,517 --> 00:21:41,770
Isn't it exhausting to live a life

190
00:21:42,812 --> 00:21:44,439
that has already been mapped out?

191
00:21:45,857 --> 00:21:47,317
I have never...

192
00:21:49,361 --> 00:21:50,403
thought of it that way.

EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTE

194
00:23:04,894 --> 00:23:06,896
It's been four months, hasn't it?

195
00:23:09,274 --> 00:23:10,108
Is that so?

196
00:23:10,692 --> 00:23:11,693
I'm...

197
00:23:12,819 --> 00:23:14,738
heading back to Joseon in two days.

198
00:23:17,120 --> 00:23:19,206
Since we used to perform together,

199
00:23:19,276 --> 00:23:21,370
I thought it'd be rude not to say goodbye.

200
00:23:24,431 --> 00:23:25,265
I see.

201
00:23:25,499 --> 00:23:27,501
Thank you for inviting me

202
00:23:29,967 --> 00:23:31,135
to your home in Joseon.

203
00:23:48,069 --> 00:23:50,321

206

Extra!

207
00:23:57,912 --> 00:23:59,747
Takeo Arishima
committed suicide with his lover!

208

Extra!

209
00:24:02,667 --> 00:24:04,419
Extra!

210
00:24:09,841 --> 00:24:12,719
If a forbidden love is causing pain,

211
00:24:14,053 --> 00:24:15,972
you can just end it.

212
00:24:16,264 --> 00:24:17,932
Why take such drastic measures?

213
00:24:20,018 --> 00:24:23,605
The loneliness they would be left with
after they part

214
00:24:24,647 --> 00:24:26,024
must have been terrifying for them.

215
00:24:28,109 --> 00:24:30,445
Well, we all eventually forget.

216
00:24:40,038 --> 00:24:41,915
Anyway, I wish you the best, U-jin.

217
00:25:00,475 --> 00:25:03,394
I wish you the best as well, Sim-deok.

How have you been?

240
00:32:01,945 --> 00:32:03,530
Could you spare me some time?

241
00:32:05,240 --> 00:32:08,035
I won't take long.
Just give a few minutes.

242
00:32:08,202 --> 00:32:09,828
Let's go somewhere and talk...

243
00:32:14,124 --> 00:32:15,084
You should change first.

244
00:32:18,879 --> 00:32:20,422
I don't want you to trip.

245
00:32:38,816 --> 00:32:41,568
I heard you were running
your family business in your hometown.

246
00:32:42,736 --> 00:32:44,446
Myeong-hui said

247
00:32:45,030 --> 00:32:46,573
that you were too busy

248
00:32:47,116 --> 00:32:49,243
to even respond to his letters.

249
00:32:50,077 --> 00:32:52,704
At the end of every letter he sends me,

250
00:32:52,788 --> 00:32:54,623
this is what he asks.

251
00:32:55,791 --> 00:32:59,461
"U-jin, have you still been writing?"

252
00:33:00,295 --> 00:33:02,089
I couldn't write back

253
00:33:02,172 --> 00:33:04,466
that I've been signing
papers and documents

254
00:33:04,842 --> 00:33:06,510
instead of writing literature.

255
00:33:15,883 --> 00:33:19,303
You looked amazing on that stage today.

256
00:33:20,096 --> 00:33:21,681
Thank you for remembering

257
00:33:23,224 --> 00:33:25,101
your promise to come and watch me.

258
00:33:28,396 --> 00:33:29,730
You didn't seem nervous at all.

259
00:33:30,439 --> 00:33:32,358
Not enough to need my support anyway.

260
00:33:34,694 --> 00:33:37,029
I'm not nervous
to perform on stage anymore.

261
00:33:39,198 --> 00:33:40,116
However,

262
00:33:47,248 --> 00:33:48,875
seeing you made my heart race.

263
00:33:51,878 --> 00:33:53,880
Because you were watching me

264
00:33:56,007 --> 00:33:57,884
and you might leave.

265
00:34:00,261 --> 00:34:02,930
I thought I'd be able to forget you,

266
00:34:03,681 --> 00:34:05,308
and I thought I did.

267
00:34:08,269 --> 00:34:09,437
However,

268
00:34:11,647 --> 00:34:14,150
it struck me
when I saw you in the audience.

269
00:34:15,693 --> 00:34:17,111
I had never...

270
00:34:20,698 --> 00:34:22,575
been able to forget you.

271
00:34:42,929 --> 00:34:44,639
Just leave it as it then.

272
00:34:46,807 --> 00:34:48,017
I will too.

273
00:35:31,102 --> 00:35:32,228
I'll write to you.

274
00:35:36,774 --> 00:35:40,569
You don't have to respond to Myeong-hui's,
but I'll be expecting an answer back.

275
00:35:43,823 --> 00:35:44,782
All right.

276
00:35:45,366 --> 00:35:46,200
I'll get going then.

277
00:35:52,415 --> 00:35:53,332
U-jin,

278
00:35:54,834 --> 00:35:56,002
pick up your pen again.

279
00:35:57,086 --> 00:35:58,587
I'm fond of your writing, you see.

280
00:36:56,118 --> 00:36:59,774
GYEONGSEONG BROADCASTING STATION

281
00:36:59,883 --> 00:37:00,884
Great work today.

282
00:37:02,125 --> 00:37:03,126
Thank you.

283
00:37:03,794 --> 00:37:05,504
You're such a phenomenal singer.

284
00:37:05,587 --> 00:37:07,923
I always feel bad
that I can't pay you more.

285
00:37:08,006 --> 00:37:10,759
Our budget is low at the moment
since this is a test run of the show.

286
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:13,011
That's okay.

287
00:37:13,095 --> 00:37:15,680
I'm grateful for the opportunity to sing.

288
00:37:15,764 --> 00:37:16,765
Thank you.

289
00:37:18,058 --> 00:37:19,142
Well,

290
00:37:19,393 --> 00:37:21,228
that being said...

291
00:37:21,645 --> 00:37:24,356
The song you sang today was wonderful,
of course.

292
00:37:24,439 --> 00:37:26,441
But you usually sing classical music,

293
00:37:26,525 --> 00:37:29,403
which most people find challenging
and aren't familiar with.

294
00:37:30,362 --> 00:37:32,322
Frankly, I'm one of those people.

295
00:37:32,406 --> 00:37:33,740
From now on,

296
00:37:33,865 --> 00:37:36,660
how about you sing songs
that more people are familiar with?

297
00:37:38,286 --> 00:37:39,746
Oh, okay.

298
00:37:40,372 --> 00:37:41,915
I understand what you're trying to say.

299
00:37:43,375 --> 00:37:45,252
I knew you'd get my point right away.

300
00:37:46,044 --> 00:37:48,630
Then I'll look forward to
your next performance.

301
00:37:50,048 --> 00:37:51,049
Okay.

302
00:38:01,309 --> 00:38:03,019
Are you coming from
the broadcasting station?

303
00:38:03,562 --> 00:38:04,438
Yes.

304
00:38:07,232 --> 00:38:08,817
Did you get paid today by any chance?

305
00:38:09,901 --> 00:38:11,987
We've completely run out of rice.

306
00:38:12,154 --> 00:38:13,905
Oh. Yes, I did.

307
00:38:15,490 --> 00:38:16,741
-Here you go.
-Thanks.

308
00:38:23,081 --> 00:38:25,834
By the way,
whether it's a TV program or a recital,

309
00:38:26,460 --> 00:38:28,503
why do you always get paid so little?

310
00:38:28,587 --> 00:38:30,672
I guess that's because

311
00:38:30,881 --> 00:38:33,341
people aren't familiar
with vocal music yet.

312
00:38:33,925 --> 00:38:35,343
Gosh, still...

313
00:38:35,844 --> 00:38:37,512
You studied in Japan.

314
00:38:37,888 --> 00:38:39,764
Even errand runners
get paid more than this.

315
00:38:42,350 --> 00:38:43,852
You must be tired. Get some rest.

316
00:38:44,394 --> 00:38:45,312
Okay.

317
00:39:01,828 --> 00:39:02,787
<i>U-jin,</i>

318
00:39:03,705 --> 00:39:05,415
<i> how are things there?</i>

319
00:39:06,166 --> 00:39:07,250
<i>I'm...</i>

320
00:39:19,054 --> 00:39:20,472
<i>I'm doing pretty well.</i>

321
00:39:20,972 --> 00:39:22,599
<i>I have nothing to worry about.</i>

322
00:39:23,183 --> 00:39:24,851
<i>Things are going great.</i>

323
00:39:26,520 --> 00:39:30,565
<i>I go anywhere where I can sing.</i>

324
00:39:31,942 --> 00:39:35,695
<i>Being able to sing
in my mother tongue here in Joseon</i>

325
00:39:36,279 --> 00:39:37,989
<i>makes me incredibly happy.</i>

326
00:39:40,367 --> 00:39:42,285
<i>But I'm most happy</i>

327
00:39:48,458 --> 00:39:50,043
<i>when I see you.</i>

328
00:39:58,677 --> 00:40:00,887
<i>Would it be
because of the warmth in your eyes</i>

329
00:40:01,972 --> 00:40:03,431
<i>when you look at me?</i>

330
00:40:05,350 --> 00:40:06,560
<i>Or...</i>

331
00:40:08,645 --> 00:40:11,106
<i>would it be because of
how warm your hand feels</i>

332
00:40:11,898 --> 00:40:13,608
<i>when you hold my hand tightly?</i>

333
00:40:18,363 --> 00:40:19,781
<i>Whatever it is, it doesn't matter</i>

334
00:40:21,283 --> 00:40:23,201
<i>as long as I can be with you.</i>

335
00:40:28,331 --> 00:40:30,292
<i>I'm happy to hear that</i>

336
00:40:30,875 --> 00:40:32,377
<i>you're doing well.</i>

337
00:40:34,254 --> 00:40:35,380
<i>I'm also...</i>

338
00:40:36,131 --> 00:40:37,882
<i>doing quite well myself.</i>

339
00:40:40,051 --> 00:40:43,638
<i>I'm struggling to get used to the work
that I have to do for the company.</i>

340
00:40:46,850 --> 00:40:49,686
<i>But I occasionally write a few reviews
for literary magazines,</i>

341
00:40:50,353 --> 00:40:53,398
<i>write poems or plays,</i>

342
00:40:54,274 --> 00:40:56,443
<i>and think about you to find solace.</i>

343
00:40:59,195 --> 00:41:00,572
<i>Then I think...</i>

344
00:41:02,657 --> 00:41:04,242
<i>and realize how much I miss you.</i>

345
00:41:07,996 --> 00:41:10,248
<i>I visit Gyeongseong when I feel that way,</i>

346
00:41:11,958 --> 00:41:13,543
<i>but what's the point?</i>

347
00:41:18,173 --> 00:41:20,050
<i>The moment I turn back after we part ways,</i>

348
00:41:20,925 --> 00:41:22,927
<i>I find myself already missing you.</i>

349
00:41:24,471 --> 00:41:27,974
<i>What should I do with my feelings for you?</i>

350
00:41:34,272 --> 00:41:35,106
Sim-deok,

351
00:41:35,690 --> 00:41:36,816
Father wants to talk to you.

352
00:41:36,900 --> 00:41:37,984
Oh, really?

353
00:41:43,114 --> 00:41:45,116
This family is far wealthier
than any of the families

354
00:41:45,200 --> 00:41:47,285
that wanted you to marry their sons.

355
00:41:48,244 --> 00:41:49,704
Still, I don't want to do it.

356
00:41:49,788 --> 00:41:53,291
Are you seeing someone by any chance?

357
00:41:55,960 --> 00:41:56,795
No, I'm not.

358
00:41:56,878 --> 00:42:00,256
Then why is it that you keep
turning down these offers?

359
00:42:00,757 --> 00:42:01,883
Enough.

360
00:42:11,810 --> 00:42:12,811
Sim-deok.

361
00:42:13,478 --> 00:42:17,148
Thanks for being the breadwinner
of the family and even putting

362
00:42:18,149 --> 00:42:21,236
your brother and sister through school
in your incompetent father's place.

363
00:42:21,486 --> 00:42:23,613
Father, please don't say that.

364
00:42:24,322 --> 00:42:25,657
I'm ashamed to ask you this,

365
00:42:26,366 --> 00:42:28,493
but do me a favor for one last time.

366
00:42:30,870 --> 00:42:31,871
Tell her.

367
00:42:35,208 --> 00:42:36,710
If you marry him,

368
00:42:37,085 --> 00:42:40,213
his family will fully support Seong-deok
and Gi-seong to live and study in the US.

369
00:42:40,296 --> 00:42:43,174
They will even support me
and your father financially.

370
00:42:43,883 --> 00:42:46,511
That is simply impossible
with your meager savings,

371
00:42:46,594 --> 00:42:48,221
but his family will do all of that for us.

372
00:42:48,763 --> 00:42:52,642
You need to help Seong-deok and Gi-seong
so that they can have a bright future.

373
00:42:53,351 --> 00:42:54,352
Okay?

374
00:43:49,173 --> 00:43:52,051
Sir, please also take a look at these
when you're done reviewing those.

375
00:43:53,177 --> 00:43:54,554
-There's more?
-Yes.

376
00:43:54,804 --> 00:43:56,848
Mr. Kim owns many properties, you know.

377
00:43:57,014 --> 00:43:58,433
I envy you, sir.

378
00:43:58,683 --> 00:44:00,727
From land to other assets,

379
00:44:01,310 --> 00:44:03,730
you'll have a lot to manage.

380
00:44:12,363 --> 00:44:13,614
Yes, Kim U-jin speaking.

381
00:44:16,284 --> 00:44:17,368
Where are you now?

382
00:44:18,578 --> 00:44:19,871
I'll be right there. Wait for me.

383
00:44:27,879 --> 00:44:30,965
MOKPO

384
00:44:48,983 --> 00:44:51,194
Did something happen?
What brings you here?

385
00:45:07,794 --> 00:45:10,922
You wrote in your letter that you miss me.

386
00:45:12,632 --> 00:45:14,091
That's why I'm here.

387
00:45:42,912 --> 00:45:45,957
You should have asked me to visit you
if you'd had to go back right away.

388
00:45:46,666 --> 00:45:49,585
You told me that your father scolds you
every time you visit Gyeongseong,

389
00:45:49,877 --> 00:45:51,754
saying that the president of the company

390
00:45:51,838 --> 00:45:53,840
is slacking off
to go hang out in Gyeongseong.

391
00:45:54,882 --> 00:45:56,801
That's why I came this time.

392
00:45:57,093 --> 00:45:58,469
I don't want you to get scolded.

393
00:46:00,096 --> 00:46:01,931
You have to be a good son.

394
00:46:05,685 --> 00:46:07,144
Hold me tight.

395
00:46:11,023 --> 00:46:12,149
What do you mean?

396
00:46:12,817 --> 00:46:14,610
Beg me not to leave.

397
00:46:15,486 --> 00:46:17,280
"Don't leave me."

398
00:46:18,072 --> 00:46:19,615
Hold me tight and don't let me go.

399
00:46:21,784 --> 00:46:24,203
Something must be going on.

400
00:46:26,914 --> 00:46:28,165
You can't do it.

401
00:46:29,333 --> 00:46:30,668
I bet you can't.

402
00:46:32,795 --> 00:46:34,463
You're too much of a good person.

403
00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:37,091
You're a good son.

404
00:46:38,426 --> 00:46:39,385
Sim-deok.

405
00:46:41,178 --> 00:46:42,638
A family wants me to marry their son.

406
00:46:43,723 --> 00:46:45,057
Apparently, they're very rich.

407
00:46:46,142 --> 00:46:48,769
They're willing to
support my siblings financially

408
00:46:49,186 --> 00:46:51,606
so that they can study and live abroad.

409
00:46:52,023 --> 00:46:54,191
They'll take care of
my family's living expenses as well.

410
00:46:55,735 --> 00:46:57,278
That's how much they want me.

411
00:47:00,781 --> 00:47:02,742
Had I told you that I needed money,

412
00:47:03,492 --> 00:47:05,912
you would have done
everything you could...

413
00:47:07,163 --> 00:47:08,331
to get me the money.

414
00:47:10,958 --> 00:47:13,085
Then with your money in my hands,

415
00:47:14,420 --> 00:47:16,422
I would have felt ashamed
and disgusted with myself.

416
00:47:22,762 --> 00:47:23,846
Please say it.

417
00:47:26,474 --> 00:47:29,518
"Forget about your parents and siblings.

418
00:47:30,269 --> 00:47:32,021
Let's just run away somewhere far."

419
00:47:33,230 --> 00:47:34,440
Just say that, please.

420
00:47:43,574 --> 00:47:45,785
Come on, please say it.

421
00:47:56,462 --> 00:47:57,922
Hold me like this and say,

422
00:47:59,090 --> 00:48:00,216
"Don't go.

423
00:48:00,716 --> 00:48:04,136
I can't live without you,
so just forget about what's on your mind.

424
00:48:05,554 --> 00:48:06,931
Don't leave me."

425
00:48:08,849 --> 00:48:10,434
Say that, please.

426
00:48:13,562 --> 00:48:14,981
Please...

427
00:49:03,362 --> 00:49:05,322
Father would like to see you.

428
00:49:07,867 --> 00:49:08,993
I'll go see him in a bit.

429
00:49:09,493 --> 00:49:11,287
I want to be alone for a few minutes.

430
00:49:14,373 --> 00:49:16,208
Are you going to write all night again?

431
00:49:19,503 --> 00:49:22,506
Father has been waiting for a while.

432
00:49:38,606 --> 00:49:42,068
I got a call from your office
earlier in the day.

433
00:49:42,151 --> 00:49:44,528
They said there was a document
that needed to get approved,

434
00:49:44,612 --> 00:49:46,447
but you had stepped out
and weren't coming back.

435
00:49:46,530 --> 00:49:49,992
They asked me if you were home.

436
00:49:52,369 --> 00:49:53,454
I'm sorry.

437
00:49:53,537 --> 00:49:56,624
You've been visiting Gyeongseong
very often in the past few months,

438
00:49:56,707 --> 00:49:58,250
and I thought it was strange.

439
00:49:59,168 --> 00:50:02,588
Are you hanging out with those punks again

440
00:50:03,005 --> 00:50:05,049
to get back into literature?

441
00:50:06,801 --> 00:50:09,220
If that's true,
you can't visit Gyeongseong again!

442
00:50:11,388 --> 00:50:12,556
I don't need...

443
00:50:14,350 --> 00:50:15,684
to visit Gyeongseong anymore.

444
00:50:17,561 --> 00:50:18,771
What?

445
00:50:18,896 --> 00:50:19,980
Goodnight, Father.

446
00:50:47,925 --> 00:50:52,221
FROM YUN SIM-DEOK
TO KIM SOOSAN

447
00:51:02,940 --> 00:51:05,484
<i>This heart of mine is burning.</i>

448
00:51:06,819 --> 00:51:10,030
<i>This heart of mine is suffocating.</i>

449
00:51:12,032 --> 00:51:13,993
<i>My eyes are welling up with tears,</i>

450
00:51:15,411 --> 00:51:17,496
<i>and I am choked with sorrow.</i>

451
00:51:19,331 --> 00:51:20,916
<i>Why does your letter</i>

452
00:51:22,251 --> 00:51:23,794
<i>bring me to tears?</i>

453
00:51:57,677 --> 00:51:59,221
<i>But what can I do?</i>

454
00:52:01,556 --> 00:52:02,599
<i>Alone,</i>

455
00:52:03,683 --> 00:52:04,809
<i>all alone,</i>

456
00:52:06,061 --> 00:52:08,188
<i>I shall wish you all the best</i>

457
00:52:09,940 --> 00:52:11,775
<i>and wait for you up above.</i>

458
00:52:25,372 --> 00:52:26,539
Sir.

459
00:52:26,831 --> 00:52:29,501
We received mail
for a person named Kim Soosan.

460
00:52:31,336 --> 00:52:33,088
-Kim Soosan?
-Yes, sir.

461
00:52:37,592 --> 00:52:40,053
TO KIM SOOSAN

462
00:52:47,644 --> 00:52:49,854
Sir, are you feeling sick?

463
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:51,898
You look unwell.

464
00:52:52,274 --> 00:52:53,692
No, I'm fine.

465
00:52:54,317 --> 00:52:55,610
You may proceed with this.

466
00:52:55,694 --> 00:52:56,778
Yes, sir.

467
00:53:12,361 --> 00:53:14,404
Then I'll visit again soon.

468
00:53:15,155 --> 00:53:15,989
Please do.

469
00:53:22,371 --> 00:53:25,207
Why are you just standing there?
You should walk him to the main road.

470
00:53:25,290 --> 00:53:28,210
-Okay. Let's go.
-All right.

471
00:53:29,753 --> 00:53:31,088
I'll be off, then.

472
00:53:54,444 --> 00:53:55,362
I'm sorry.

473
00:53:56,071 --> 00:53:57,531
I'm not ready for this yet.

474
00:53:58,115 --> 00:54:01,618
So, you're still not ready.

475
00:54:03,078 --> 00:54:04,287
I'm sorry.

476
00:54:06,832 --> 00:54:09,793
Well, my feelings are a little hurt,
but what can I do?

477
00:54:10,293 --> 00:54:12,546
Since I like you more,
I should be more patient.

478
00:54:18,176 --> 00:54:19,011
Get home safely.

479
00:54:22,180 --> 00:54:23,515
Have a safe journey home.

480
00:56:11,456 --> 00:56:12,791
MAY ISSUE

481
00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:16,711
Jeom-hyo told me

482
00:56:17,462 --> 00:56:18,922
that you've been coming straight here

483
00:56:19,005 --> 00:56:20,715
after work every day.

484
00:56:21,299 --> 00:56:24,010
She said you've been drinking
and writing all night without even eating

485
00:56:24,094 --> 00:56:24,928
for a whole month.

486
00:56:27,389 --> 00:56:29,808
I've made it clear to you
that you must stay away from writing.

487
00:56:29,891 --> 00:56:30,934
But...

488
00:56:31,726 --> 00:56:33,478
you sent your writing
to a literary magazine.

489
00:56:33,562 --> 00:56:35,355
Not even just one.

490
00:56:36,064 --> 00:56:37,399
Did you think I'd never find out

491
00:56:37,482 --> 00:56:39,568
if you used your pen name, Soosan?

492
00:56:41,403 --> 00:56:42,612
Why must you care

493
00:56:42,696 --> 00:56:44,990
about the theatrical reform movement
in Joseon?

494
00:56:45,949 --> 00:56:47,617
Are you trying to rebel against me

495
00:56:48,493 --> 00:56:50,495
because I told you
to never visit Gyeongseong again?

496
00:56:58,336 --> 00:56:59,546
I have done

497
00:57:00,589 --> 00:57:03,300
everything you wanted me to do, Father.

498
00:57:04,426 --> 00:57:05,427
What?

499
00:57:06,011 --> 00:57:07,721
I got married because you wanted me to,

500
00:57:08,263 --> 00:57:10,515
and I went to an agricultural school
because you said

501
00:57:10,599 --> 00:57:12,601
I'd have to manage
all the land that our family owns.

502
00:57:13,351 --> 00:57:16,313
Now, I work at the company
for that is what you wanted me to do.

503
00:57:18,607 --> 00:57:20,984
So, tell me. How exactly
did I rebel against you, Father?

504
00:57:21,067 --> 00:57:22,652
U-jin, how dare you.

505
00:57:23,612 --> 00:57:26,031
How could you say such a thing
to your father?

506
00:57:26,114 --> 00:57:27,365
That's right.

507
00:57:28,200 --> 00:57:29,784
You are my father,

508
00:57:29,951 --> 00:57:32,037
which means I will be your son
until the day I die.

509
00:57:33,288 --> 00:57:35,957
But your son is human.

510
00:57:36,750 --> 00:57:38,460
I am human, Father.

511
00:57:38,752 --> 00:57:41,546
I am a human being
with his own thoughts and free will.

512
00:57:41,630 --> 00:57:43,965
Did you just raise your voice at me?

513
00:57:44,049 --> 00:57:45,550
Yes!

514
00:57:45,634 --> 00:57:46,551
Yes.

515
00:57:47,969 --> 00:57:51,890
I did raise my voice at you.

516
00:57:53,433 --> 00:57:56,394
I am begging you
to let me breathe a little.

517
00:57:57,437 --> 00:57:58,271
What did you say?

518
00:57:58,355 --> 00:58:00,941
Others are sacrificing their lives
for Joseon's independence,

519
00:58:01,399 --> 00:58:03,860
but I am living like a coward
as per your wish.

520
00:58:04,486 --> 00:58:06,196
For I am utterly ashamed,

521
00:58:06,780 --> 00:58:09,115
I wanted to confess my mortification
through my writing.

522
00:58:09,783 --> 00:58:10,992
At least through my writing,

523
00:58:11,576 --> 00:58:13,328
I wanted to do something.

524
00:58:13,411 --> 00:58:14,329
But...

525
00:58:19,167 --> 00:58:20,961
Scribbling a few words
on this piece of paper

526
00:58:21,044 --> 00:58:22,837
helps me breathe a little.

527
00:58:24,506 --> 00:58:26,508
But you are telling me to quit it,
so I must ask.

528
00:58:33,390 --> 00:58:34,599
Father,

529
00:58:36,059 --> 00:58:38,103
do you want me to live

530
00:58:38,979 --> 00:58:40,438
or die?

531
00:58:52,784 --> 00:58:53,994
You're drunk.

532
00:59:14,681 --> 00:59:16,349
Do you want me to live...

533
00:59:18,935 --> 00:59:20,562
or die?

534
00:59:25,233 --> 00:59:27,068
FATHER, WITH A WHIRLWIND IN MY HEART,

535
00:59:27,152 --> 00:59:29,904
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE,
I CHOSE TO GO AGAINST YOUR WILL
