Welcome to Samdal-ri (웰컴투 삼달리)

WELCOME TO SAMDAL-RI

Mi-ja…

There was a time when our lives were consumed by sadness.

Honey! Where are you going?

Honey, this isn't the time. Not now…

Mom.

Honey, please don't…

Let go of me.

Sang-tae…

Sang-tae.

Please let me go inside.

Please let me say good-bye to Mi-ja.

Sang-tae…

Sang-tae.

Just once.

Please give me one chance to say goodbye to her.

I want to see her one last time!

Please let me say goodbye to her, Sang-tae.

You should've died by yourself!

Why did you kill my daughter? You should've died by yourself!

Why did you take my daughter? Why?

Get out! I said get out!

-Ms. Yang. -Why?

-Get out! -Ms. Yang.

-I'm sorry, Ms. Yang. -Get out!

-Ms. Yang. -Oh, God!

I don't want to see you! Get out!

FUNERAL

I can't go on without you!

I can't go on, Mi-ja!

Enduring this sadness in our own ways was difficult,

and we didn't have the strength to embrace each other's pain.

BU MI-JA, KO MI-JA

BU MI-JA

Our sadness simply left too much pain back then.

EPISODE 14 WHEN YOUR TEARS DRY OUT

Unbelievable.

He's still acting like that?

He let out all that anger on Mom back then.

She kneeled and begged him for forgiveness for years.

That's right.

I was young at the time, but I still remember.

She felt so guilty she couldn't leave the house for years.

And he's been like this ever since.

That's not true.

He acted this way eight years ago so Yong-pil and Sam-dal would break up.

Then, he'd been quiet for some time,

but now he's started again.

Dad, what did you say? Eight years ago?

Does that mean they didn't want to break up with each other?

It was because of Mr. Cho?

Seriously? Holy cow.

So is he angry again now because of those two?

Because they still clearly like each other?

Can you two also tell they like each other again?

It's not "again."

It looks like they never stopped liking each other.

I knew it was strange that Sam-dal could never meet a decent guy

after breaking up with Yong-pil.

I heard Yong-pil's been single all this time.

So isn't it obvious, Dad?

They weren't an ordinary couple. They've always been together since birth.

It must've been too hard to move on.

I feel terrible for Mom.

That no-good…

-Hold on. -Where are you going?

I'll end this matter with him once and for all.

Dad, please. Just stay put for now.

Mom's already tried once.

Didn't you see her?

She's right.

I've never seen her confront Mr. Cho like that before.

She'd felt so bad she couldn't even talk to him.

Mr. Cho seemed pretty surprised too.

Of course, he was.

It was the first time in 20 years I heard Mom mention Ms. Bu.

It wasn't her choice to not mention her for 20 years.

She just couldn't.

She couldn't dare to.

CHO YONG-PIL HAS DONE IT FIRST CONCERT AT OPERA HOUSE

You think you're the only one in pain

and the only one who's grieving her?

I'm in just as much pain as you are.

And I miss her just as much as you do.

I do too!

I miss Mi-ja too!

If the tide had been slightly higher, you would've been in huge trouble.

What possessed you to go there during high tide?

Didn't you see the warning sign?

Yong-pil, we need to talk.

Yong-pil.

Yeah?

When we were kids,

remember how I'd always cut my tongue eating candy because I forgot to chew it?

Of course, I do.

That's why I always told you when to chew it.

Right.

We always did that ever since we were kids.

But after we broke up,

I realized I still hadn't learned to chew.

I guess I thought you'd always be around to tell me.

So did you keep cutting your tongue?

No.

I stopped eating candy after that.

Because every time I cut my tongue…

it would remind me of you.

And then, it would hurt again.

So I just stopped eating candy.

I worked like a dog

and avoided anything that was related to you.

Well, it didn't really work out.

But you were different.

What do you mean?

It seems you didn't try to avoid…

or forget about me.

The theme for Magazine X's summer photoshoot this year

is mirrors.

It feels like there was never a moment…

CHO YONG-PIL

when you weren't a part of my life.

FIRST PHOTOGRAPHER OF 2023, CHO EUN-HYE

Weren't you in pain?

I was.

It hurt.

But…

What if I tried so hard to forget you…

that I really did forget you?

What if I missed you

and wanted to see you so much

that I tried to remember your face…

but couldn't remember it?

You mean so much to me.

Sam-dal, you see,

I didn't want to be without you for a single moment in my life.

That's why…

I didn't forget about you.

Yong-pil…

I don't want a one-sided love.

No, I won't do it.

We tried to move on for eight years, but it didn't work. So what can we do?

Isn't a one-sided love so unfair for us?

So let's just…

Let's do it.

Let's just be together.

Let's just be in love, okay?

Okay.

Let's do that.

Love.

Let's be in love.

-Sam-dal. -Yes?

Even if my dad keeps refusing to accept us,

you can't let me go like eight years ago.

I won't.

I won't let you go now.

I'll never let you go again.

By the way…

Even if your dad never gives us his blessing,

let's always hold onto each other even if it hurts.

-Okay? -Okay.

Okay.

I'll get going now. Bye!

What's this pity party you're throwing by yourself?

Pour me a drink too.

Sang-do.

How about just confessing your feelings to Sam-dal?

I know everything. I've always known.

You're so persistent too. How many years has it been?

Jeez.

Gyeong-tae thinks

Yong-pil and Sam-dal are trying to get back together.

So tell her before it's too late.

Tell her?

-What happens if I do? -If she says no, then that's that.

It'll be at least better than suffering alone for a decade.

I'll feel better, but Sam-dal will feel terrible.

That's…

That's something she'll have to deal with.

You know what?

When I said I liked someone, she was so eager to help me.

She's never had feelings for me.

If I tell her I've had feelings for her,

she'll be the one who has to deal

with feeling sorry and uncomfortable.

That'd be so selfish of me.

Come on, Sang-do.

I never had a chance.

I mean, after around 30 years, even the most well-built buildings

are bound to form cracks too.

So how is it possible…

that I still…

don't have even the slightest opening

to get in between them?

AS Group… I'm the one who hates them the most!

Just the thought of them sends chills down my spine!

I see…

Okay, I understand.

What is it?

Isn't it a system error?

My credit cards were working just fine this morning.

Sir…
