Still Shining (샤이닝)

STILL SHINING

IN MOURNING MO SEON-GYU

JULY 2016

Back when all I had to give

was my heart…

IM A-SOL, IM JI-SOL, KIM EUN-SU, KIM A-RA, LEE CHAE-WON

MAEUM STUDY CENTER

The desperate wish

to convey how I felt any way I could.

Yeon Tae-seo!

Here.

Did my feelings

reach them properly?

STILL SHINING

STAY YOUNGWON

Where are you?

Get away from there, Tae-seo.

So where are you?

Where is your exact location?

That guy already left.

He's gone, so stop worrying.

Who says I'm worried?

What are you doing here at this hour?

What about you? Who's that girl?

You came all the way from Gangneung together,

casually swapped drivers, and then just went your separate ways.

What kind of relationship is it to be so casual?

That's nice of her.

You two must've talked a lot on the way here.

It really was nice of her,

but don't offer to buy her a meal to repay her.

Did you end up meeting him?

No.

Did you see Park So-hyeon?

She just turned up yesterday

and said she'd take care of my Tongyeong problem.

But when I went to her room at dawn,

I heard Seong-chan's voice and rushed out in surprise.

And in the middle of all that,

I saw you get out of that woman's car

and wondered who she was and what's going on.

That's all.

I don't know what those two are up to.

As long as you didn't run into him, it's fine.

Your expression says otherwise.

The surgery was yesterday, so it's been a day now, right?

Tomorrow will be the second day.

So she'll wake up tomorrow.

It'll take two or three days.

Grandpa, I'm here.

I see. You came.

By the way, I spoke to A-sol.

I told her to get a meal out of you, but she wants something else.

Like what?

I'm sure she'll tell you herself.

You should eat before you go.

I'll prepare the food.

Do you know how?

Yes.

The house feels empty.

YEON CHANG-SIK

Grandpa.

I think I'll have to make the rice again.

CALLS

EUN-A

Visiting hours are open now.

Let's shoot the inserts first. Have the cameras set up in the yard.

- And then, check the actors' blocking. - Yes, sir.

The restroom's at the end of the hallway on the right.

Hello, sir.

Yes, they're here.

They know this place better than I do.

There's not much for me to help them with.

Then I'll head out early today.

This is the revised contract. Take a look.

You need to check everything, so get down here now.

Now we can finally rest easy.

Yeah, it's the second floor. I'll be waiting outside.

Okay, I'm almost there.

This way.

I mean, does this dead wood produce oil or something?

It just doesn't make any sense.

I followed what I saw online. I sanded it, oiled it, and did everything.

It's been over a year, but the oil's still coming out.

It won't dry.

It'll have to be sanded again.

Is this desk being used?

It's my dad's.

What do I need to get ready?

Nothing.

Are you done checking?

Yeah.

Let's grab a bite downstairs.

I haven't eaten yet today.

Must be tough going back and forth to the hospital while working.

I used my vacation days to free up time next week.

When do you need it done by?

He says he'll come back to work next month,

but it's always "next month."

When I see him in March, he says April. When it's November, he says December.

He's with my mom at my sister's house in Gapyeong.

He has lung cancer.

But he's holding up quite well. I think he'll keep living there.

I'm saying you can take your time.

Seriously, taking your brother to Gangneung wasn't any trouble at all.

I quit my job working for a good company in their tax department.

Then, I took on my dad's work to help him, only to get swamped.

Now my dad says he's found a new life and settled in Gapyeong with my mom.

I'm the only one left at home, and I was thinking, "What am I doing?"

Then, I ended up seeing the ocean.

It wasn't planned, and it was only for a brief moment,

but it still washed away months of stress.

So I liked it.

Hi, Eun-a.

It's my girlfriend.

What is it?

I figured you'd be back in Seoul by now.

Right now, I…

Ma'am, can we have more kimchi?

Sure.

It sounds like you're eating.

Enjoy your lunch.

- I'll call you back. - Okay.

So… this keeps bothering me every time I see you.

It's about me giving you my name tag.

There are different ways to interpret it.

To say "I like you," I'd put in just mine.

But there were several, right?

I wanted to show you some support.

My feelings at the time were

sympathy 40%,

respect 30%,

and liking you around 30%.

No, wait.

It was 50, 30, and 20.

Or was it 40, 40, and 20?

Or 30?

I must've looked really pitiful.

Well, you don't now.

I was really proud to see how well you were doing.

Remember the desk you used? Seat One by the entrance?

I used to sit there all the time too.

It was easy to concentrate when I sat there.

I thought, "Someone endured far worse and still made it through."

You were my motivation.

I wanted you to have a good life.

Anyway, I'm just saying that's what it was.

It's just in case you were wondering if I still liked you.

It kept bothering me.

I had something to take care of in Tongyeong,

so I had to leave in a hurry.

I'll come straight back after checking some paperwork.

It won't take even 30 minutes.

I'll call you when I'm back in Seoul.

TONGYEONG BUS TERMINAL

Show me.

What's the rush? You can read it there.

It's been revised with the correct business type.

The dates are the same.

You can run it as planned until March 20th.

Just sign it.

Are you…

Are you angry right now? It's all been settled.

Just like that?

How does this make sense?

If it were this easy, why did I spend months…

How can Park So-hyeon appear and make this all possible?

LEASE AGREEMENT

Why now?

They apparently took in guests while you were away in Seoul.

All your stuff was still there, so they're clearly crazy.

They probably thought letting guests sleep there was the end of it.

They got complaints and demands for refunds.

They knew something was wrong, and then Park So-hyeon turned up.

You're the one who told her, right?

What matters is that it's all settled now.

And you told her to ask Na-yeong where I was.

Those scumbags backed down, okay?

Who cares about Park So-hyeon right now?

Let's not do this, okay?

What's there to think about?

That's your opinion, not mine.

No wonder why Park So-hyeon rushed over here in a panic.

When I left this place, I didn't leave the door open.

Eun-a, I really don't understand you.

What you…

Give me a second.

I thought you'd be excited when this was all resolved.

I thought you'd come running.

Did I get Park So-hyeon involved?

I did, but so what?

We have to deal with it, don't we?

Giving up is also an option.

What kind of nonsense…

Eun-a, you put so much care and effort into that place.

Now you can have it all back. What exactly is the problem?

Is this something to be mad about?

There's nothing for you in Seoul.

What's there to even think about?

No matter how much care,
