Lovers in Bloom (The Rose of Sharon has Bloomed / Moogoonghwa Kkotyi Pieotseubmida /무궁화 꽃이 피었습니다)

Who is this woman?

You have a delivery, Chairman.

Do you have something to say?

No, I don't.

- What? - Just leave!

Did you see the security man on your way here?

It's someone...

you'd be very happy to see.

Do you have someone following me around?

Cha Sang Chul.

Did you hire him on purpose?

What did you just say?

Why didn't you just have us meet together?

You're right.

Cha Sang Chul is my ex-husband.

We parted ways almost 20 years ago,

but I still recognize him right away.

You won't even deny it.

- Why would I? - Why?

How could you say that after lying to me?

I've never lied to you.

This is disappointing.

I didn't know you'd do this behind my back.

What?

What is it? You didn't even call.

You don't answer when I call.

When should we ride bikes with Woo Ri? On your next day off?

No, you really don't have to do that.

I keep my promises.

We're not going to date and I have no intention to.

You shouldn't make Woo Ri promises...

or meet her.

Why not?

I know how you and I both feel.

You're right. I like you.

So what?

Are you going to marry me?

Moo Goong Hwa.

Did you just want to date?

I got ahead of myself.

Fine, let's just date then.

I'm not even 30 yet...

and dating you is no big deal.

Is that what you wanted me to say?

- Moo Goong Hwa. - I'll tell you one more time.

I don't have time to date.

I'm Woo Ri's mom.

She's waiting, so I should go.

Do you think I'm joking with you?

Listen to me.

I'm not joking around with you.

Where did the confident and surprisingly courageous person go?

This has nothing to do with confidence.

I told you.

I don't want to burden you.

It's more like responsibility...

than a burden.

That's the same thing.

It's just a different expression.

You're right, I was surprised...

when I found out you were married and have a child.

Maybe I was inattentive,

but I had no idea.

I was so surprised I didn't know how to treat you.

So, I gave it a lot of thought and held myself back.

I'm sure you noticed.

However,

you win, Goong Hwa.

Did you think I didn't think it over before telling you how I feel?

You still don't know me.

If not,

are you just trying to confirm your rejection?

Mr. Cha.

So,

don't mercilessly shoot me in the same place again.

Okay?

You should get going. Woo Ri must be waiting.

It's no use looking at me like that as if you want to hold onto me.

You ruined our date today.

Woo Ri said a police officer was here.

Is it the one that was yelling at you in the street last time?

Yes, that's him.

What brings him here?

He had a question for me about a report.

He could've waited until you were at work.

He was asked to hand it in quickly.

I'm thinking of making bibim noodles.

That sounds good. Add a lot of yeolmu kimchi.

- Where's Woo Ri? - In the room.

I'm so sleepy.

I'll take a nap with Woo Ri before going to work.

Okay.

The princess...

- What are you doing? - Woke up...

from her sleep.

I don't know...

Are you mad at me, Woo Ri?

He said he'd play with me...

and buy me something delicious.

He's too busy.

I'll play with you instead.

You must like playing with him better than playing with me.

I like playing with you more than anything in the world.

I like playing with you the best.

But I like him too.

Mom, I want to ride bikes with him. Please?

Mom.

Hello.

Is this Cha Sang Chul's phone?

I'm the person whose money Gyung Ah ran away with.

Where are you?

I'll go to you.

It'll be hard to find anything in Seoul with 3000 dollars.

What about Seongnam?

I told you to keep that money in case of emergency.

Where are you going to sleep?

I'll get a job that provides a room and meals.

Why would you spend a lot of money...

on monthly rent? It's a waste of money.

I said I'll take care of monthly rent.

Did your boss go somewhere?

He's working.

Did he step out because of me?

I told you not to worry because it's not like that?

Why would you yell at me?

It's not like that.

I'll go to the convenience store.

Bo Ra, did you just arrive?

Yes. Hi.

Bo Ra. Did you have a fight with Su Hyuk, by any chance?

You don't call us over lately, and he doesn't talk about you.

You're right. We had a fight.

Why? What's there to fight over?

Ask Su Hyuk.

What's this?

- I received your 20,000 dollars. - What?

Oh Gyung Ah's boyfriend or whoever he is...

said he would repay her debt,

so I called him. He really repaid her debt.

- Is that true? - Yes, it's true.

What does he do?

How could he repay as much as 40,000 dollars for her?

I have no idea.

I thought he was a rich old man, but he wasn't.

I saw his business card. He's working at a security company.

However, he asked me not to tell Oh Gyung Ah...

that he repaid her debt.

Why?

I guess he didn't want her to feel uncomfortable.

He looked like a very nice person.

- What a shame. - My goodness.

What are you talking about?

I wish you had met a man like him.

You're prettier than Oh Gyung Ah.

You're also smart and a great cook.

- I really wish you were... - Stop. You're not even my friend.

When you saw the bankbook, you shot lasers out of your eyes.

My gosh. Seriously.

I'm sorry.

That's why...

I brought you the best anchovies.

Do you think this can make up for me?

It was possible to get this money back because it was me.

You could never have done it.

How stupid are you to give her back the money she repaid you?

As if you don't need that money.

I know.

Why didn't you ask Hee Jin do that?

I shouldn't just pass time all day.

My body will rot when I die anyway.

Aren't you hot?

I came out here to get fresh air.

The breeze is nice out here. I feel better here.

I'll steam pumpkin leaves. Try them with soybean paste sauce.

- It'll increase your appetite. - Yes, Mom.

It's very tasty.

Why are you standing there? Go in and wash up.

Mom, in fact,

I found her.

Do whatever you like.

Pardon?

I said to do whatever you like.

Just as you said, you're old enough to make decisions.

Why would you ask for my permission for everything?

Thank you, Mom.

I'm sorry too.

When your child is grown,

you become a burden to him.

I forgot that again.

I'm not better than this old cucumber. Goodness.

- Are you leaving now? - Yes.

- Did Soo Ja leave? - Yes, she did.

What's the matter?

Soo Ja brought me the money.

What money?

- My 20,000 dollars. - What are you talking about...

Did Ju Young's mom gave her that?

No. It was the man who left with her...

that Su Hyuk told us about. He repaid the money.

The man who left with her?
