Beautiful Love, Wonderful Life (Sarangeun Byootipool Insaengeun Wondeopool / 사랑은 뷰티풀 인생은 원터풀)

Why did you survive alone?

Why was it you who lived?

You should have saved my son too.

My son should have lived, not you.

Why did you let my son die when you lived? Why?

What?

Are you surprised someone else showed up?

I stole you again.

When I'm just an irresponsible fool.

I'm...

coming from your place.

Your mother found out.

A letter.

She had a letter.

A letter that Jun Gyeom sent to you.

You should go to her.

Go.

Go and be by her side.

Stay with her, all right?

Go.

You should go.

Mom.

Where were you?

You aren't even wearing a jacket.

To throw trash out.

What?

Did you drink?

Did you drink a lot? I can smell the alcohol on you.

Your coat and suit better be dry-cleaned.

Leave them out in the living room.

I'll tell the housekeeper to take them to the cleaner's tomorrow.

Mom.

Should I make you some honey water?

I'll bring it to your room. Go wash up.

It was a hit-and-run.

I...

hit someone and ran away.

Go to your room and study.

Let me wipe the car.

There's no such thing as a heroic death.

It's a title only given by those that were left behind.

I don't want you to be like me.

I'd rather have my eldest son live his life the way he wants...

at the pace he wants.

We need to talk.

About what?

Here.

Wash up and go to bed after you drink this.

Is your stomach all right? Any headache?

With whom did you drink so much?

What happened to your hand?

How did you cut yourself until you bled?

It's nothing.

I cut my hand while I was cleaning the study.

Wait here. I'll go get a bandage.

There's no need.

I'll do it myself. Drink it.

The Certificate of Honorable Death and the plaque.

They weren't in the study. What did you do with them?

I told you. I went to throw trash out.

What?

I think you're right.

There's no such thing as a heroic death.

I only believed what I wanted to believe.

I was completely fooled.

That he left after saving someone.

That he died after saving a girl like her.

The letter.

About Jun Gyeom's letter...

Forget it. I don't want to read it.

He sent it to you.

What's the use of finding out about a talk between brothers?

It'll only make me miss him even more.

He always said he wanted to become a judge like me.

What, a basketball player?

What a jerk. After you told me that,

I feel so betrayed the more I think about it.

I want to get over him.

I want to let him fly away now.

I'm going to burn all his stuff tomorrow.

The living must live on.

I have another son whom I must protect.

You should get over him too.

Let's not talk about him from now on.

I better get rid of his pictures first.

Mom.

If you're doing this because of me, you don't have to.

I'm okay.

So don't avoid me. We need to talk.

I'm not okay.

It's because of me.

It's not you, but because of me.

Or I might crumble, so don't say anything.

I don't want to lose you too.

Then,

let me just treat your wound.

Is that okay?

You're home, Cheong Ah.

Hi. I'm home.

Come have some fried chicken.

I'm not hungry.

We aren't hungry either.

But it's delicious.

I'm a little tired. Let me go upstairs and rest.

I'm sorry, but can you get me some water before that?

My hands are greasy.

Okay.

Thank you.

Grab one and take a bite. It's good.

But I'm really not hungry.

Come on. Just one.

What do you think? Isn't it delicious?

Yes. - See?

I told you it's good.

For Cheong Ah's dream.

Cheers.

It's cold.

It doesn't feel like chicken. It's like a rock.

What do we do? Shall we go?

No, let's finish the rocks.

Thank you for the food.

What's wrong with your sister?

You're home.

I washed your uniform and put it in your room.

Hey.

What's wrong?

It's nothing.

I think it's something. Why, what happened?

What?

Jun Gyeom's mom found out about everything?

So how much did you tell her?

Mom.

Did you also tell her...

that you two went there to commit suicide together?

No, right?

Did you?

Why did you tell her that?

You should've pretended not to know.

I had no choice, Mom.

So what did she say?

Does she want to hold you responsible? Is that it?

You're killing me. Speak already.

I'll take responsibility for whatever I need to.

Cheong Ah! - Mom.

That's not important to me.

It's just that she's so heartbroken.

Why is it not important? Your life depends on it.

Mom.

If she holds you responsible for aiding and abetting suicide,

do you think you can keep being a police officer?

It was so hard for you to get that job.

You struggled for years to become a police officer.

You'd be a fool if you give up on that.

Cheong Ah.

Get yourself out of that now.

You've suffered enough for 10 years.

You've paid enough of the price.

Mom.

I'll deal with it from now on.

If she resents, I'll be resented.

If she accuses, I'll take the blame.

So don't meet her from now on.

Okay?

Please just live your life now.

Mom. - You seem tired now.

Get some rest.

It was so hot...

that he woke up...

and went for a swim and drowned.

An accident's better than suicide.

For both him and his mom.

His mom will never survive her son's suicide.

That will leave his mom...

in guilt and despair forever.

Tell me what you're hiding.

I won't tell the police.

There isn't anything.

We aren't hiding anything.

Your son passed away while trying to save my girl.

I'm deeply sorry for it,

but that's the truth, so you shouldn't do the autopsy.

Answer it. Just pick up.

Please pick up, Cheong Ah.

Hang up the phone.

Just hang up.

Please hang up.

The receiver cannot be reached. You will be directed...

Call me if you can't fall asleep.

I'll stay up and wait for your call.

I didn't know I'd come to want...

to hear you chatter on.

Let me hear your voice.

If you're not okay, don't be.

If you're sad, just feel sad.

You can just cry without saying anything.

Don't hold it all in by yourself and call me, okay?

I'm not sure I can do this, Cheong Ah.

I don't think I can stay a good memory for you.

Even if I end up giving you bad memories every day,

I want to stay by your side.
