All language subtitles for [S01.E07] When My Love Blooms - Aflevering 7.English

I can tell you agonized over it.
Your face is drawn.

I've been thinking since that day.

About why you're being like this.

You cheated on me

even before Yeong-min took his first step.

You didn't even hesitate

to sign a waiver of your parental right.

But why are you asking for custody
after all these years?

This isn't about getting your son back.

You're just trying to destroy
the man I'm with.

What made you

weigh your son against
the man named Han Jae-hyun?

So did you figure out the reason?

My dad told me this 25 years ago.

About opportunity cost.

If I choose one,

I have to give up the other.

So I have to do
what I want to do the most,

or avoid what I fear the most.

I must give up one or the other.

So?

So…

I decided to avoid my biggest fear.

Back then, and even now,

what I fear the most is…

him ruining his life because of me.

Whether my choice is right or not,

I'm going back to you.

THE INCIDENTS AND SUBJECTS
PORTRAYED IN THIS DRAMA

WERE PARTIALLY REWRITTEN
TO ADD THEATRICAL EFFECT

It's not like
you're getting dragged to your death.

Don't make such a sad face.

I'll feel better eventually.

I'm sure you've changed,
but I've changed too.

And I'm not stupid enough
to repeat the same mistake.

How do you want to proceed
with the marriage?

Do whatever you want.

I'll give you time.
Clean up your life if you need to.

Especially

old relationships.

You're very straightforward
with your answers,

so you're helping us move quickly.

Let's eat before you check your testimony.

It's either ox bone soup
or seonji hangover soup.

I'll have seonji hangover soup.

VICE PRESIDENT HAN
UNDER PROSECUTORIAL QUESTIONING

You shouldn't have looked for Ji-soo.

She's now involved in a lawsuit
for the return of custody.

Her ex-husband filed it.

Is it because of what happened at school?

No. Because of you.

He's suspicious of an affair.

More like green onion soup.

I really love green onion,
so I always eat it like this.

It's crunchy yet piquant.
There's nothing miserable about it.

Green onion is best
when you had something greasy.

I began to eat even more of these
after I got this job.

Mr. Han, when will you play
your next move?

What do you mean?

Come on. The prosecutors
of the Republic of Korea aren't a joke.

All right, then.

One sunny, breezy day,
we received a few stacks of documents

about some stuff regarding Hyungsung Group

at the Prosecutors' Office.

It was easy to read and understand,

and it was perfectly organized too.

So we were sitting there like,
"What is this?"

A few days later, the same story

was spun out on newspapers and TV,
in the exact same narrative.

It looked as if we leaked it out
to try to begin the investigation.

I mean, the cover on their damage.

Did that happen?

Naturally, that's why we ended up

inviting you here today.

And when you showed up,

you were unlike other rich people
who never go anywhere without an attorney.

You came all alone.

Then you admitted to your charges

without even denying a word.

These questions I prepared
became completely useless.

If all investigations could go like this,

it'd be a piece of cake
to work as a prosecutor.

Anyway, after everything,

how can I stop myself
from painting a picture?

The prosecution service

isn't like buses or subways
that run on a scheduled time and route.

And we are way far from a taxi,
a service you can call

whenever you need it.

Now, tell me.

What's your next move?

Eat your green onion soup
before it gets cold.

Then we'll move on.

Did you really do that?

-Do you admit to your charges?
-Say something!

-Do you admit it?
-Excuse me!

Do you admit to your charges?

-Wait!
-Say something!

How did it go?

It went well.

It went well for whom?

What do you mean?

Is it going well for you?

Or is it going well for Dad?

Which is better for you?

Well, I hope it goes well for both of you.

So that you two can get along
without fighting.

For now,
it won't be a big problem for anyone.

Is there any other problem?

Something other than your work.

I wish you'd just be yourself.

Fine. It's not my style
to beat around the bush, and I can't.

Yun Ji-soo. Is everything okay with her?

She's getting ready for a lawsuit
for the return of custody.

Are we good now?

For now.

Goodness, pumpkin.
What happened to your foot?

I walked for too long.

What's wrong?

Because of hatred.

For who?

Me.

Goodness, you're a girl with temper.

It looks so awful.

Your foot is tiny like a princess.

Why are you so mean to your feet?
You need to cherish these.

You need to cherish yourself
for others to cherish you.

Granny.

You should be my mom.

Why should I be your mom?

Just because.

Because I miss her so much.

I thought it'd be great

to have a mom who'd call me crazy
and slap me on the back.

Is something going on?

It hurts with the medicine.

Be patient.

It'll heal soon.

There's no wound that doesn't heal.

Granny, you're really smart.

You just figured that out?

You aren't supposed to laugh
right after you cry.

Hello?

Hello, are you Ms. Yun Ji-soo?

Who is calling?

Hey, you. Ji-soo.
Do you not remember my voice?

Dong-jin, is that you?

Gosh, Ji-soo. You haven't changed a bit.

You're still one of the top three beauties
of the class of 1993.

You haven't either.

Of course. I don't look my age at all.

My problem is that
I get younger and younger.

I might become a baby eventually.

Anyway, I'm also very good at my job.

So I'll take your case.

The suit for the return of custody.

I'm an expert on divorce,

so a custody case is a piece of cake.

"This is the last person
I want to lose against."

That's the slogan for my office.

Anyway, you're very lucky.

You can turn your divorce
into a winning lottery ticket with me.

-Dong-jin.
-Don't mention it.

No need to thank me. It's between us.

I'm not going to court.

You aren't? Is it because of money?

It's true that
I'm the best divorce lawyer in Korea,

but I'll help you free of charge.

How can I take money from you?

Thank you for the thought.

But I'm really dropping the suit.

The suit was dropped? Why all of a sudden?

No idea.

You should've found out more.

Isn't that a good thing?

It's weirder to pry
and ask why she dropped it.

-Jun-u.
-Yes, sir.

I need you to follow someone.

I'll put you on break

and find a replacement for a while.

-Make sure you aren't seen.
-Yes, sir.

But who am I following?

Lawyer Lee Se-hun.

Ji-soo's ex-husband.

-What?
-Follow him all day long.

Find out what he does,
who he meets, and where he goes.

Don't miss anything.

Yes, sir.

You're home.

Hello.

Why do you always say hello
like we're strangers?

You should say, "I'm home."

I'm sorry.

Go wash up.

That boy is too girly.

Maybe because he was always with his mom.

I decided to reunite with her.

-What? To do what?
-Reunite with her.

Did that brat push you around again?

Just take the kid.

I already made my decision. That's all.

If you show your feelings to Yeong-min,
I won't see you again.

Thank you.

What do you think?

It seems great.

Both this place and the one before?
Do you like both?

Stick to an opinion like a man.

-One second. Keep going.
-Okay.

Dad says this is the house
where we'll live together.

JI-SOO

Hye-jeong.

Yes?

What do you do when you have free time

but you have too much on your mind

so you can't just sit around?

I go home and sleep.

Only one lesson got canceled.
There's not enough time to go home.

Go get some coffee.

Coffee makes me stay up at night.
I already have trouble sleeping.

Then grab a drink.

I'm not crazy.

Give it a good thought.
That might be the case.

Hey, how about S.A.C.K.?

"S.A.C.K."?

Like for boxing?

You know, punching bags and sacks?

Man, you cavewoman.

"Singing alone at a coin karaoke."

Don't you know?

Tonight I couldn't

Tell you this in words

Forgive me

For writing down

How I feel on this paper

For a long time

I was crazy for you

To the point I got scared

At this point

I might regret

How I had been like that

But my dear

Even if you forget everything else

I hope you will

Remember this

How much

I am

In love with you

How much I love you

Are you okay?

You're going to get back with him?

You can't afford to break these.

I have to clean it up.
You'll hurt yourself again.

What's the real reason?

Is it Jae-hyun again?

No, it's Yeong-min.

You divorced him because of Yeong-min.

You know too much about me.
I have to get rid of you.

And you know nothing about me.

Me? Hey, I even know your taste in women--

Does it hurt when I press it?

Did a piece of glass get in there?
One second.

Hold the light.

I don't think anything got in there.
Why does it hurt?

Because of you.

Whatever.

I'm hurt because of you.

I like you.

It's because…

I like you.

I'm not against you getting back with him

thinking I won't have a chance.

If that's how I felt, I wouldn't have

stood behind your back for years.

There's no glass. Raise your hand up.

I saw in a movie

that you'll stop bleeding
if your hand is above your heart.

I just lost a friend.

If we continue to remain as friends,

will you listen to me?

You were my only friend too.

I never told you about how I felt
to not lose you.

Thanks to that, we never had to break up,

so it wasn't too bad.

But I'm going to change.

I can't just stand behind you

and watch you…

walk straight…

into the fire.

I'm going to meddle in your life.
I'll be heartless and harsh.

Yeong-u.

I don't think we can
see each other anymore.

I won't be able to come anyway
once I get back with Se-hun,

but we'll have to say goodbye
earlier than I thought.

Put some ointment on.
Don't put a bandage on it.

You should let it ventilate.

Vacuum the floor
and wipe with a wet cloth.

Well, anyway…

I'll be going now.

Thank you for everything, Yeong-u.

And I'm sorry.

All right.

APRIL 1995

I found all these
from the club room in your boarding house.

Do you still claim
this isn't a subversive organization?

Those are philosophy history books.

And those are
used as textbooks in classes.

"Let us bring socialism
through labor unions."

It's clearly written right here,
yet you claim these are for your class?

Our Constitution protects
the freedom of thoughts and conscience.

How can we protect

your subversive ideology?

Ji-soo...

has always been friendly and kind
since she was young.

Meaning she couldn't be decisive

and wasn't strong-minded.

That's why she always gave way

despite her loss

and handed over what's hers,

but all she got in return was
people abusing her, and betraying her.

She always ended up empty-handed.

She is a dear child to me,
so I got even more anxious

thinking she might walk a tough journey.

If you don't leave Ji-soo,

you'll rot in prison for years.

You won't be able to graduate

or get a job anywhere.

Are you going to use

your governmental authority
for personal gain?

That's another way of seeing that.

I won't just let it happen.

I will tell the world

you used your authority as a prosecutor

to get personal revenge.

Your parents are here.

Ji-soo and your parents

are willing to sacrifice anything for you.

What are you doing?

Is what you're doing

worth the sacrifices they make?

Is it that important?

Jae-hyun.

Are you okay?

SEOUL CENTRAL DISTRICT PROSECUTORS' OFFICE

Ji-soo and your parents

are willing to sacrifice anything for you.

What are you doing?

Is what you're doing
worth the sacrifices they make?

Is it that important?

Goodness, you've done well.

MAY 1995

Goodness, Ms. Lee.
He wasn't put in prison,

so he doesn't need tofu.

But still.

Are you all right? Are you in any pain?

You won't have to go back to jail, right?

And you can graduate, right?

-Yes.
-Good.

FROM GIMPO TO FRANKFURT

Jae-hyun and I left each other.

Why do I have to study abroad?

I'm sorry,

but I don't trust you.

That's what I believe.

You might feel like you'll die
if you don't see him now,

but I guarantee that
you'll forget him in a month.

And you're studying classical music.

You can go to its birthplace,
go experience a bigger world,

and study it as much as you can.

Since when were you so concerned about me?

Don't waste your money on a daughter
who's never good enough.

Let me stay here.

I don't want to go
even if Chopin comes back to life.

You've only done things
that aren't good enough,

so you need to do as I say starting now.

I might really die.

I can't help it.

I told you to go to school and study.
Why are you here all the time?

I don't want to go to school.

Why not?
You used to practically live there.

I don't want to see my activist friends.

Why not? What do they say?

Not to my face. They talk behind my back.

What do they say behind your back?

That I betrayed them over a woman.

That's not true, though.

I heard you broke up with her.

Are you all right?

I'm not going to school to stay all right.

When I'm at school,

I see Ji-soo everywhere.

Ji-soo.

Once you arrive at Frankfurt Airport,

the Koreans who'll host
your homestay will be there.

Ji-soo, he's apparently very handsome.

I'm so jealous.

Who cares if my homestay host is handsome?

-I'm not talking about the host.
-Ji-yeong.

She doesn't know?

-What are you talking about?
-What?

-It's nothing.
-She's right.

Tell me.

He's the youngest son
of Seongguk Corporation,

and he's studying
very close to where you'll be.

Is this the 18th century?

An arranged marriage?

Goodness, I'm not saying
you should marry him.

But you could meet up with him
and just see how things go.

I found you.

I found you...

Yun Ji-soo.

I was wondering
if I should tell you or not.

But I thought you should see her
before she leaves.

Ung-dae told me

that Ji-soo is leaving the country today

to study abroad in Germany.

Why Gangchon?

My friend runs a guest house there.

I can just stay at your place.

If I were your parents,

I'd storm into my house first.

We should be able to stay there
for a few days.

A few days aren't going to cut it.

Aren't you going to go home?

No.

What are you going to do?

I'm going to marry you.

-Let's write something too.
-Write what?

"Jae-hyun and Ji-soo were here."

Let's not do that.

There are a number of Korean scribbles

all over the Heidelberg Castle in Germany.

Don't even mention the word "Germany."

I think he's looking to move.

-He has been looking at houses.
-Houses?

Yes. Mostly country houses
on the outskirts.

Oh, and he has been
bringing his son along while doing that.

-Yeong-min?
-Yes.

It seems like
they might get back together.

I'm hurt because of you.

I like you.

It's because…

I like you.

I'll give you time.

Clean up your life if you need to.

Especially

old relationships.

Dad says this is the house
where we'll live together.

Nothing is easy.

It's okay.

It's all right.

It looks like you were hurt.

I bumped into something.

Are you okay?

Yes, I'm fine.

What brings you here?

I wanted to make sure of something.

I heard your ex-husband filed a lawsuit
for the return of custody.

That's why you sent Dong-jin my way.

I heard the suit was dropped.

Did he give up?

No.

We're getting back together.

Why did you make that choice?

Because I want to protect him.

Who do you want to protect?

Yeong-min?

Do you really think
that's a way to protect him?

He's at an age when he needs a dad.

There's a limit to what I can do for him
since he's a boy.

I should get going.

Take care, Jae-hyun.

Even if you don't have a tail,

many others have their eyes on you too.

I'm not fine.

I can't even make a cup of ramyeon.
I'm not fine.

Nothing is fine.

Everything is a mess.

I bumped into something.

Why can't she relax
and live a normal life like them?

I'm sorry to cause another nuisance

while there's a lot going on already.

-Have a drink.
-Sure.

Don't say it's a nuisance, sir.

I just told the person in charge

to stick to the rules.

So is it just as you told us before?

Yes. Under the Korean Anti-Corruption Act

and the Whistleblower Protection Act,

a whistleblower who spills the beans
on corporation corruption

such as secondary accounts,
accounting fraud, and embezzlement

cannot be protected.

That's such a convenient law.

It sure will be very tough
to run a corporate business

if the state protects traitors.

And you can't plea bargain in Korea,

so you can't work hand-in-hand
with a prosecutor

like you see in movies.

We have to stick to the laws and rules
to become an advanced country.

Sounds great, Mr. Kim.

Pour him another one.

Yes, sir.

But Chairman Jang.

Is it all right
to do this to your son-in-law?

People say you must

chastise your children
to raise them properly.

The same goes for your pet dogs.

I wanted to know how it's going.

We're getting back together.

Did Ms. Yun agree to do so?

Of course.

Something doesn't feel right.

What do you mean?

It doesn't feel like
things are going well.

You're worried over nothing.

Do you trust Ms. Yun 100 percent?

I don't trust her 100 percent,

but I do know her 100 percent.

She knows what she'll lose,

so she won't change her mind.

Wait, is it because of Jae-hyun?

I got impatient and decided to join you,

but your way of love

is almost frightening.

How can you want to live with a woman

who's willing to sacrifice her life

for another man?

I thought

you of all people
would understand, Ms. Jang.

Am I wrong?

Mr. Lee has met with Ms. Jang.

-With Seo-gyeong?
-Yes, sir.

And the dashcam of your car
looked different,

so I took it out to have a look.

-Where are we going today?
-To the store in Bundang.

SPRING 2000

In Gyeonggi Province?
We're taking the car, right?

No, the subway.

Are you trying to save expenses?
Why? To get snacks later?

You're not supposed to spend expenses
on anything like snacks.

What happened to your shoe?

How would I know?

That's why I said
I'm not taking the subway.

Where did you lose it?

No idea.

I'm calling my driver.

Darn!

Where did you find it?

Where did you lose it?

It came off while I climbed up the stairs.

I found it on the platform.

What happened to your face?

What about my face?

You look ugly.

What do you mean, I'm ugly?

All right, fill up your glasses.

We're going to do a wave. I'll begin.

Go clockwise.

I'm not drinking.

-You can drink for her.
-What?

Then we can skip Seo-gyeong.
Jae-hyun, you go.

Then that's not a wave.

It seems like Seo-gyeong can't drink,
so you can go ahead.

No.

Didn't you say,
"That's not a wave," or whatever,

pretending as if you stick to the rules?

Are you allowed to be out here
during your working hour?

You said team dinners
are a part of our work.

What is it?
Why are you sitting here like this?

Because I lost something.

You lost something? Like what?

Money?

A person.

I lost something too.

My mom.

FROM JI-SOO, TO JAE-HYUN AGAIN,
JANUARY 1994

Because I want to protect him.

THE END OF THAT SUMMER

LEE SE-HUN

You haven't forgotten, right?
It's tomorrow.

I remember.

Do you know everything
you have to prepare?

Yes.

JAE-HYUN

Hey. May I see you today?

I'll come see you.

No.

I'm far from home.

This train will arrive
at Gangchon shortly.

JAE-HYUN AND JI-SOO WILL LOVE
FOR A MILLION YEARS, MAY 12, 1995

You must be tired. Go to sleep first.

Oh, I'm not that tired.

Then do you want to go out
and get some exercise?

So this is what it feels
like to see a real starry night.

Aren't you worried?

I am.

I'm not sure what my dad will do now.

Why does he go that far?

He's a chief prosecutor now,
but he wants to go into politics.

He needs money.

He has been dying to marry one of us
into a rich family.

"So dear, that I got anxious," he said.

What? Who is dear?

You.

To whom?

To me.

Why anxious?

Because I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

Because I love you.

What did you just say?
I didn't catch that.

Forget it.

Don't be like that.
I really didn't catch it.

Can you tell me one more time?

This is the last time. Listen up.

TO YONGSAN, CHEONGNYANGNI

CHIEF LAWYER LEE SE-HUN

MARRIAGE REGISTRATION

There's something I want to check.

May I see you tomorrow?

Jae-hyun.

I hope we can

end this for good now.

After all these years,

we still have feelings for each other.

I think that's because
we didn't have closure.

So let's break up.

Let's say goodbye for good.

I can't do that, Ji-soo.

I want to protect you.

It's not because I'm sorry.

It's not because I regret anything.

And it's not because
I'm holding on to hope.

It's not that I wish
I could've protected you.

I want to protect you now.

That's the only reason.

Just like how you tried to protect me.

This train is the last train

bound for Yongsan, Yongsan Station.

The train will be departing soon.

JAE-HYUN AND JI-SOO WILL LOVE
FOR A MILLION YEARS, MAY 12, 1995

JAE-HYUN AND JI-SOO WILL LOVE…

FOR A MILLION YEARS, WHEN MY LOVE BLOOMS

You held me hostage without my knowledge.

You should've been more careful
if you were planning something big

in this day and age.

You'll have to stop what you're doing.

I don't plan on doing that.

Go ahead

and reveal the video.

Are you sure it'll be okay?

The prosecution
isn't done questioning you.

I don't care.

I'll get something out of this too.

Take the child from the mother

who's involved in an affair.

And I will take Ji-soo

once she loses her child.

I've decided to meddle in Ji-soo's life.

But I'm afraid now.

What if Ji-soo disappears?

Goodbye, Jae-hyun.

I've figured out what you had lost.

Did you know Jae-hyun had another woman?

What if something happens
to her again while I'm gone?

I'm not going to let it push me around.

I'll stand up against it,

be it fate or a person.
