At a Distance, Spring is Green (Blue Spring from a Distance / Meorliseo Bomyun Peureun Bom / 멀리서 보면 푸른 봄)

Why are you just standing there? Come in.

Get in, you little brat.

And you call yourself a man?

You don't want to? Say that again.

Must I seem like a loser because of you?

Must I?

You inept piece of trash!

Do you know what should become of useless brats like you?

Jun, open up!

- Don't. - Jun, open the door!

Let go.

- Father, stop this. - Move!

- Let go of me. - Please stop.

You won't let go?

- Open this door! - Father!

Let go!

Jun!

You little...

Jun-wan.

Jun-wan?

Leave us.

Jun-wan, you see...

Go.

Jun-wan...

Jun-wan, it's not like you saw.

You.

Have you been beating him behind my back?

Jun-wan, listen to me.

I warned you

that Jun's off limits.

But that little brat

acted out--

You've gotten weaker.

It hurts me to see that.

Doesn't this get old for you?

Haven't you done this enough?

Just stop, darn it!

What's going on?

Tell me what's going on! Where's Jun-wan?

Jun-wan?

Jun-wan, open up.

Jun-wan, open this door!

Open this door, Jun-wan. Jun-wan!

Jun-wan, no!

Jun-wan, open this door!

This is that day all over again.

Ever since that day, Jun-wan shut down completely.

He no longer laughed.

No...

Jun-wan, open this door! Jun-wan!

Jun-wan!

Mommy.

Mom, I'm sick.

Step aside, darn it!

Jun-wan, please open this door.

Jun-wan...

Hello? Hello?

Please...

Please save my son.

Please save my son.

Jun-wan, oh no.

Hey, So-bin.

Soo-hyun, is Jun back?

Not yet.

He's unreachable at the moment and I'm worried.

I'll tell him to call you when he gets back.

Soo-hyun.

It probably won't be of help,

but I can at least listen.

At times,

Jun seems miles away.

I want to close the distance,

but I'm worried that maybe it's not something

he wants.

If you're patient, he might close the distance himself.

That's who he is.

It did.

Thanks, Soo-hyun.

What will happen to Father?

He'll be punished and the world will know about him.

So this is what it comes to.

Once the media gets wind of this, your life will be disrupted.

It's all right.

I'm no stranger

when it comes to fame.

I made up my mind the day I found you

passed out from his beating.

That I'd protect you from him.

I thought I only had to cope with him alone.

That I only had to keep you out of range.

I believe it'd then be all right.

Jun-wan.

I'm sorry.

It made things worse for you.

You used to be a pretty boy as bright as the sun.

I'm still unbelievably pretty, you know.

So don't worry.

I'll shake this off

and live a happy life.

As if nothing had happened.

- What about you? - What?

What about your life?

You never did anything you wanted

and went down the path our parents wanted for you.

I'm fine.

You should live your life doing what you want to.

That doesn't exist.

You should go on a date too.

How do I do that?

Take your own advice

and build a healthy relationship with So-bin.

I'd rather you do things that are less by-the-book.

Got it?

I'll be watching you.

I'll get going then.

Get going.

I always walked away without seeing you off.

Head inside.

I won't until you go.

You go ahead and live your life.

Freely.

I see you've already erased it from your memory,

but I'm reminded of it every day.

So don't you dare forget about it without my permission.

You're home.

What's wrong?

Jun.

Are you all right? So-bin's worried sick about you.

What's going on?

The classroom feels empty without Jun.

My eyes are bored.

Don't tell me you still--

Of course not. It's just how you feel with celebrities.

Why hasn't he been to school?

Ask Kim So-bin. Being his girlfriend, she'd know.

That's exactly how I want to be.

So that everyone knows we're a couple.

Soo-hyun, why are you standing here?

I was waiting for you.

- Me? - Yes.

I thought you'd like some company since Jun's not here.

So you'd eat lunch with me in his place?

When did I start speaking casually to you?

It didn't take you long with Jun.

Is that so?

I didn't know you two would become friends.

I bet me living with Jun is uncomfortable for you.

Hardly. I rather feel reassured.

To know he has someone like you by his side

reassures me.

But I can't pack a punch.

Even when I'm not around,

he has you beside him.

He'll have moments to laugh thanks to you.

Is that what is like to have feelings for someone?

You wish for that person's happiness even when you're not beside them.

Is there no one like that in your life?

I doubt that's what you want to know.

Why aren't you asking me how Jun's doing?

Because talking about him only makes me miss him more.

Don't worry too much about Jun.

Could that be Jun?

I missed you.

I missed you.

Why are you still standing there and ruining the mood?

To hand you my class notes.

Here you go.

What's important are marked, so keep that in mind.

And here's mine.

What's up with you two? This isn't exactly what I need right now.

Don't be ridiculous.

After missing classes, a student should make up for them.

Whose notes will you take?

You can only choose once and you only get one chance to choose.

Forget it. I'm done taking any classes.

I have two people who love me enough to take notes,

so why bother?

- No way. - No way.

Don't hang out with him. He's rubbing off on you.

Always the mood-wrecker.

Just a second.

Yes, Professor.

Are you feeling better now?

I returned home that day after everything was sorted with my father,

but seeing you brought on the tears.

What hurt me for a long time

was no longer a big deal for me which seemed futile.

I guess the pain became my friend.

I coped with it for too long.

So leaving it behind

felt like I was parting ways with myself from the past.

That's why you cried your eyes out. From the pain of a breakup.

We're even now.

- What do you mean? - I saw you cry too once.
