I'm in love with you
12: A story from 6 years ago (1)



권순영
It was 6 years ago



권순영
That day, when I was walking around the sea with you, Lee Ji-ha, after seeing Hong Su-yeon fall into the sea


권순영
I kept thinking about Hong Su-yeon


권순영
Actually, Hong Su-yeon is my ex-girlfriend and my first love, whom I loved more than anyone else.


권순영
But the reason I broke up with Hong Su-yeon is


권순영
Hong Su-yeon said she didn't want to stay at sea anymore.


권순영
Hong Su-yeon now wanted to stay on land and socialize with people on land.


권순영
I guess I'm a sea person and Hong Su-yeon is a land person, so we're so...different.


이지하
But why did you go to land that day..? And you didn't come back for 6 years..!!


권순영
That day six years ago, I went straight to land and looked for Hong Su-yeon without any plan.

ㆍㆍㆍ

(6 years ago)


권순영
First of all, I just came up to land...


권순영
Where is Hong Su-yeon?


권순영
Why on earth did he suddenly think about drowning himself in the sea??


권순영
I have to find out what's going on myself.

thud- (sound of crashing)


권순영
Sorry..


권순영
Hey! Hey!


홍수연
…


홍수연
Why did you come up here?


권순영
Let's talk


홍수연
What are you talking about? We have nothing to talk about.


홍수연
We've been together for a long time, and I'm going to find a new boyfriend on land.


권순영
I know, I don't care about you anymore


권순영
Don't worry, all that's left is the affection we shared so far.


홍수연
Can you leave the sea and come up to land with just one heart?


홍수연
Are you sure you came here because of love?


권순영
…


권순영
Go and talk about it first

ㆍㆍㆍ

(silence)


권순영
What the hell are you thinking?


권순영
When I came up to the land, thinking that I would be happy if I met a person from the land,


권순영
Why did you suddenly try to drown yourself in the sea?


권순영
Are you out of your mind? Seriously? Do you know how worried I was?!


권순영
Why are you doing this to me? Since that day, I can't even sleep because I keep thinking about you..


홍수연
I left you that day and came up to land


홍수연
There was no one at home


홍수연
My house was destroyed and my entire family went missing.


홍수연
It's a situation where life or death is unknown


홍수연
And now I'm an orphan


홍수연
I have no place to eat or sleep right now, and I can't work because I'm a minor.


홍수연
I can't live because there's nothing I can do


홍수연
So that's why I tried to die


권순영
Why did you die?


권순영
Don't die


권순영
Alive


홍수연
How can I live!! I'm an orphan and no one cares about me!! Do you think life is worth living like this?


권순영
Values don't matter


권순영
If the problem is that you are an orphan


권순영
Just wait a minute, I'll make sure you're not an orphan.


홍수연
What? How could you...


홍수연
And now we're strangers, so don't mind my business.


권순영
Okay, take it (holding out the note)


홍수연
what's this?


권순영
For now, go and live at the address written there.


권순영
You must have been sleeping in a sauna or sleeping rough all this time.


홍수연
(hot)


홍수연
Where is this place...


권순영
Among our brothers, there are a few who live on land.


권순영
Among them, there's a guy named Myeongho, and he's at sea right now.


권순영
I want you to stay there for the time being.


권순영
And don't die, live for sure


권순영
Just wait a moment, I'll help you escape from orphanhood.


홍수연
…Why are you doing this?


권순영
To repay all the love I've received from you


홍수연
Did you give me that much love?


권순영
Even though you didn't give me much, the love I felt was great


권순영
I think I'll feel better if I pay this off.


홍수연
… thank you and sorry

ㆍㆍㆍ


권순영
Ha.. I made a big noise


권순영
Where on earth do you find your family?


권순영
Oh, right, that time!

(previous memory)

엄마
Oh my... I think it was around here


권순영
Where are you looking for?

엄마
Oh.. I heard there's a place with lots of pretty seashells around here.


권순영
Oh, you have to go all the way that way to get there.

엄마
You're so kind haha thank you

엄마
My daughter has no intention of taking over the company.

엄마
I'm just hanging out...tsk tsk

엄마
I wish I had another child as smart and honest as you.


권순영
You're flattering me haha


권순영
Oh! But looking closely... you're the wife of Seven Group's CEO, right?

엄마
Oh? You know our company? Well... it's quite famous, haha.


권순영
At that time, he clearly said that his daughter had no intention of taking over the company and that he needed a successor.


권순영
Hong Su-yeon is pretty, kind, and smart enough to be first in the whole school.


권순영
And that's Seven Group. If Hong Soo-yeon is adopted, wouldn't she automatically become the daughter of a conglomerate?


권순영
If he becomes happy like that, my mind will be at peace too, then I won't have to think about Hong Su-yeon anymore and I can meet Lee Ji-ha comfortably... What am I thinking..!!


권순영
Okay, I guess I'll have to go to Seven Group's headquarters tomorrow.
