Hi Bye, Mama! (2020–…): Season 1, Episode 16 - Petals Fall, But the Flower Endures - full transcript

You need to stop, Gang-hwa.

You've done enough.

That's enough.

What?

I won't

take my place back.

No, I can't.

What do you mean
you can't take your place back?

I've never

loved anyone else
more than I loved myself.

It was the first time



I had someone
who was more precious than myself.

My daughter.

Our Seo-woo.

What about her? What about Seo-woo?

If I live,

Seo-woo will end up

seeing ghosts for life.

You...

You said she won't see them.

That she'll stop seeing them soon.

Are you finished?

Gosh, this is great.

Did you draw our home?

Who



is this here?

Uncle.

"Uncle"?

This uncle...

-Who is he?
-He's not here anymore.

YU-RI

The kindergarten and your house are safe

Soon she won't see ghosts anymore.
Don't worry.

No. I thought she'd stop seeing them,

but no.

As long as I stay here,

she'll keep seeing them.

For life.

It all started because of me,

so I have to put an end to this too.

I wanted to

let Seo-woo dream of anything.

I wanted her to want to become anything
and do everything she wants.

So I can't let her

keep seeing ghosts
just so that I could live.

Wait.

We might be able to fix that.

There could be a way, Yu-ri.

After I had Seo-woo,

my tomorrow was always filled with her.

"Will she walk tomorrow?

Will she run tomorrow?

How much more will she grow tomorrow?"

I can't ruin

her tomorrow like this.

I can't let Seo-woo be afraid
and tormented because of me.

How can I live with that?

She's only

six years old.

My daughter.

No, Yu-ri.

There has to be a way.

There must be.
That's probably how you came back to life.

Right?

You said you could live
if you got your place back.

You said you could live, Yu-ri!

You can't do anything about this.
It's my problem.

Like that day five years ago,

it's my decision.

You did everything you could.

Gang-hwa.

Thank you.

I didn't want to
make you feel guilty again.

So I was going to leave

after 49 days.

But you found out

about everything.

It was all my decision,

but I was afraid
you'd think it was your fault again.

Did I

do the right job

by telling Gang-hwa?

Of course.

If he had found out

after Yu-ri was gone,

not just the OR, but life itself
would’ve become terrifying to him.

Losing her

after not having done anything

and at least having tried something
would be different.

You did the right thing.

If you leave again,

Gang-hwa won't be able to live properly.

Right?

He won't just feel guilty.

He won't be able to endure it.

Right.

I'm sure he won't.

Yu-ri.

You're going to find your place,

right?

That must be it.

-What?
-Gang Hwa.

To make him do something...

After she's gone,

she doesn't want him to feel guilty.

-What?
-I think

Yu-ri is going to leave.

I think

she's just going to leave.

I WANT TO SEE MY DAUGHTER ONCE MORE,
WRITTEN BY JEON EUN-SUK

I want to see

my daughter

once more.

I want to see her.

Just once.

Please just once.

I really want to see my daughter.

That was it.

That's why they sent Yu-ri.

Pine tree, pine tree

Your light is evergreen

On a lonely autumn day

And even in a snowstorm

Pine tree, pine tree

Your light is evergreen

Everyone ran away

and went up.

It's empty.

Ms. Mi-dong hadn't been able to
send them up for ten years,

but the exorcist took care of them
in a few days.

By the way, weren't you
the first one on the list?

Why are you still here?

Instead of me,

Kang Sang-bong went up first.

He said he had no more regrets.

You must be sad
because your friend is gone.

What's wrong? Was your son here again?

Your son who comes over here drunk
every time his business fails?

He's been coming to you
quite often lately.

I guess something's not going well.

It's not easy to make a living.

He's going flat out,

but life is just tough.

Come to think of it,
life has always been tough.

People just struggle
to support their families.

I feel really bad for my son.

Yu-ri.

Mom.

What are you doing?

Well...

I'm clearing up my stuff here.

They are old, and I don't even use them.

They just take up a lot of room.

I see.

Mom.

Yes?

Why did you leave my room untouched?

You were sad whenever you saw it.

I guess I knew you'd come back.

My daughter is in this room.

Me?

Yes.

My daughter who entered school

with a bag that was
almost as big as herself.

My teenage daughter

who would giggle
over rolling leaves on the street.

My daughter who wept sadly

as if her life was over
when she failed the college exam.

If this room was gone,

it would've felt like
you weren't even here to begin with.

So I couldn't get rid of your stuff.

It's okay

even if I'm not in this world.

I'm living in your heart all the time

That's all that matters.

You're right.

It's okay as long as you live in my heart.

What's wrong?

What?

Why?

What are you thinking about?

Nothing.

Did you have the dream again last night?

Yes.

I still think it's not right.

There must be a way. I'll find it.

There is no way.

First, just live.

-As for Seo-woo, I'll--
-Don't you remember

the time she was locked in the freezer?

She

almost died then.

This isn't just about being scared
because she sees ghosts.

I've been dead already.

Being alive like this

is the weird part.

Yu-ri.

Anyway, you can live. Try to live.
You should do something, Yu-ri.

Since you already died once, should I say,

"Okay. Bye.
You've been dead already anyway"?

Does that make sense?

I'm sorry.

Yu-ri.

What is this?

Your mom's wish.

The reason why you came back to life.

I WANT TO SEE MY DAUGHTER ONCE MORE,
WRITTEN BY JEON EUN-SUK

Is this it?

Is this why I came to life?

Yes.

I WANT TO SEE MY DAUGHTER ONCE MORE...

She prayed every single day.

I thought she was praying
for her daughter's peace,

but that wasn't it.

She was praying

to see her daughter one more time.

So this is it.

I had no idea.

I only cared about my daughter.

That's what everyone does.

I also chose to live like this

because my son would've done it
if I didn't.

But he wouldn't let me come close to him

because his son is still young.

That's what

all children do.

I would've done the same thing to my mom.

Then what about the judgment?

What's the deal with the judgment?

Whether you will be greedy or not...

I think that's the judgment.

I can be greedy,

but if I do, I will have to switch
my life with Seo-woo's.

I won't do that.

I'll go up no matter what.

I'll just

make the most out of the remaining time.

At first, I wasn't even sure
if this was a reward or a punishment.

I didn't understand
why this was happening to me.

It's neither of them.

What is it then?

A gift.

Hi.

Hey, Seo-woo.

Is that really you, Yu-ri?

Mom!

Come to think of it,

I died all of a sudden

without getting to hold my kid

and say goodbye to her.

I guess I got this gift
because I was too pitiful.

If I went up there just like that,
I would've been really upset.

But I'm fine now.

I will just enjoy the time I have left

and say goodbye to Seo-woo before I leave.

You've changed.

What do you mean?

You've become stronger.

You are a real mom now.

Right.

It's a blessing for you to
settle your affairs

before you leave.

What are you talking about?

Are you leaving?

No. Yu-ri.

No.

What if you were me?

If it makes Ha-jun's life miserable,

would you still want to live?

No, but...

I was supposed to leave
in the first place.

And I was going to.

You know it.

Gosh, what's all this?

Why is everyone being so mean to you?

Why on earth...

Hyeon-jeong.

Can't you help me?

Please help me.

I...

want to leave with a smile.

Please help me do that.

Do you...

Do you

really have to leave?

Yes.

Yu-ri.

I'm sorry.

I...

I'm really...

I'm so sorry.

I do understand how you feel,

but you might regret

wasting time like this later.

Who are you?

You know something, right?

You know Yu-ri, right?

I know

just as much as you do.

That Yu-ri has to leave.

Is there a way for her to stay?

Then your daughter will have to see ghosts

for the rest of her life.

I'll see ghosts instead of Seo-woo.

No, I'll go up instead of Yu-ri.

I'll do anything. Please.

There's nothing you can do.

CHA YU-RI

Sending someone away in a proper manner

can be a way of showing respect.

What is this?

Min-jeong gave them to me.

They're for you and me.

She came here,

cried the whole time, and left.

And?

Did she say anything else?

She's divorcing Gang-hwa.

What?

Why?

Is it because of me?

No, she can't divorce him.

I'll go talk to her.

It's between the two of them.

It's none of your business.

-It's all my fault!
-No, it isn't.

They have to either get divorced
or work on their marriage anyway.

No.

They shouldn't get divorced.

Don't you know

how much Min-jeong loves
Gang-hwa and Seo-woo?

Gang-hwa needs her too.

Seo-woo.

You're pretty.

So pretty.

Does Mommy look sick?

Thanks.

I'll talk to her.

Wait for now.

-Let's play.
-Come here.

Seo-woo.

-Miss.
-Yes?

When did Seo-woo get here?

Who dropped her off?

Pardon?

Seo-woo's mother dropped her off
just a while ago.

Seo-woo.

Seo-woo!

What is it?

Are you okay?

-Seo-woo!
-Seo-woo, what's wrong?

-Goodness.
-What's going on?

Quickly.

Take her to the hospital
and call her mother.

-Take her to the hospital.
-I'll do it. I'll carry her.

Seo-woo.

Hurry.

Be careful.

Excuse me! Doctor!

This way, please.

Goodness.

Seo-woo.

What's wrong with her?

It's an acute enteritis.
She's okay now, so don't worry.

Ms. Oh, you're here.

Is Seo-woo okay?

Yes. She has acute enteritis.

I see.

Ms. Oh.

Min-jeong!

Don't go.

Then,

what do you want me to do?

You came.

Seo-woo's real mom is here.

What do you

want me to do?

I have to leave.

I must.

Seo-woo and Gang-hwa

need you.

Please don't go.

What brings you here?

I need to look into something.

What is it?

Do you feel anxious?

I'm afraid

it'll all disappear.

I'm afraid

Yu-ri

will be gone again.

Gang-hwa.

Ever since Yu-ri came back,

I've been having the same dream every day.

In my dream, Yu-ri says goodbye

and leaves.

When I wake up and see Yu-ri in my arms,

I get relieved.

"She didn't leave.

She's still here."

But strangely enough,

I have that dream every single day.

Then this thought came to my mind.

Perhaps my daughter who is here right now

actually came back to say goodbye.

Is she saying farewell in my dream
every day

to prepare me

for the real moment of parting?

So I thought,

if that's the case,

when that day comes,

I'll say goodbye

to my daughter with a smile.

Gang-hwa.

I didn't want to
make you feel guilty again.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry for everything.

Stop blaming yourself.

It's not your fault.

Leave?

Where are you going?

I didn't come back from the dead.

I'm back here only briefly.

For only 49 days.

That's why I asked Gang-hwa
not to tell you.

Because I have to leave

anyway.

Wait a minute.

You're back

only briefly?

Does that mean

you'll die again?

Does Gang-hwa know

that you have to leave?

I don't know what Gang-hwa said,

but he didn't mean it.

That's him feeling guilty toward me.

Because he blamed himself

for my death five years ago.

He

likes you a lot.

Nobody else might notice,

and even Gang-hwa may not realize it
himself,

but I do.

Don't you hate me?

Why don't you hate me?

If I were you, I'd hate me a lot.

Why...

I

hurt Gang-hwa
and turned him into a thorny cactus.

You're holding him
without knowing that you're bleeding.

Also,

you're Seo-woo's favorite person
in the world.

I was so relieved.

"Thank goodness, she's Seo-woo's mom."

That's what I thought to myself every day.

Why would I hate you?

Can't you

just stay?

Isn't there a way you can stay?

No.

We're taking Seo-woo
to the hospital because she's sick.

Please call us when you see this.

Thank you.

Do you know what you said the most

while we were living together?

"I'm sorry.

Thank you.

It's all right."

You said, "thank you"
when I combed Seo-woo's hair.

You said, "thank you"
when I tucked her into bed.

I did

what was a natural thing to do as a mom.

But you kept thanking me.

Like I was a stranger.

I had

planned to file for divorce.

Because you were too nice.

You were being too considerate.

I didn't want to have regrets again.

"I should've been nicer.

I should've done what she asked.

I should've

held back."

I didn't want to have those regrets again.

Like I did with Yu-ri.

You're finally opening up.

Why are we having this talk now?

After we've gone through

a messy and bloody time.

Cha Yu-ri.

Yu-ri.

Give her a good send-off.

Put your heart into it
and do the best you can.

Have no regrets.

Let's talk about our divorce

after that.

She prayed every single day.

I thought she was praying
for her daughter's peace,

but that wasn't it.

She was praying

to see her daughter one more time.

Goodness.

What are you doing?

I want to look at you closely.

Goodness, are you a kid?

Yes, I'm your kid.

When I'm done folding laundry,

I have something to give you.

Mom.

What are you waiting for? Eat.

Here.

It's wild seaweed, so it's really soft.

Go ahead and try it.

You should eat too.

Should I?

Eat.

It's tasty.

Was it tasty?

Yes.

I'd bought

so much seaweed,

thinking I'd give it to you
when you gave birth.

The whole sink was filled with seaweed.

Finally, I got you to eat it now.

It was really tasty.

Yu-ri.

Can I ask you something?

Sure.

Were you

with me

the whole time?

Were you?

Tell me, were you?

Mom.

So you were.

You were.

I thought

you put Seo-woo's stuff away
because you missed her.

But it was because of me, right?

So that was it.

You were with me the whole time.

I had no idea.

I'm sorry I suffered too much.

You must have felt so sad.

Don't cry.

Mom, don't cry.

It's okay, Mom.

Did you miss me a lot?

Yes.

I wished I could see you
just one more time.

There was something

I really wanted to say to you.

I'm sorry.

Why are you sorry?

Why would you say that?

You cried even when you just

cut your finger a little.

To think that you suffered
on that cold ground alone.

To think how scared you would have been.

I could never seem
to let go of that thought.

I'm sorry I couldn't be with you.

I'm sorry I left you alone, my baby.

I wasn't scared at all.

I stayed strong to the end.

I wasn't alone.

I was with Seo-woo, Mom.

That's why I could stay strong.

I wasn't scared.

Mom.

Mom.

Her son is here again.

Mom.

He comes here every time he drinks.

He's been coming here often lately.

I guess he has a lot of trouble
to drink for.

Making ends meet isn't easy.

Even when you get old,

you can't help but miss your mom.

When you're at that age,

you don't have anywhere to go
to cry all you want.

That's the age

you miss your mom the most.

I miss my mom, too.

Mom.

My baby.

It's okay.

It's all right.

There.

It's okay.

It's all right.

Mom.

It's okay.

It's all right.

My baby.

Goodness. My baby.

Is there

really no way?

No.

There isn't.

Do you

really want to leave?

Yes.

If only I had known a little earlier...

Then I would've

let you see Seo-woo more often.

I acted like a fool.

No.

I was a ghost,

so these moments were
really precious to me.

I could touch Seo-woo.

I could hold you when you were hurting.

To me,

it was like a gift.

How can I let you go again?

I'm sorry, Gang-hwa.

I'm sorry about five years ago

and now.

I'm really sorry

for leaving.

No, I'm sorry.

I'm sorry about everything.

Why are you sorry?

When you've given me so much.

Thank you

for loving me while we were together.

That's enough for me.

Seo-woo.

The pretty auntie

is actually

your mom

who gave birth to you.

Your mom

must love you a lot.

No.

She loves you a lot.

Will you

forgive me

someday?

THINGS I WANT TO DO

KEEP MY PROMISE WITH MY FRIENDS

You said you'd do me a favor,

but you never showed up.

And now you're leaving?

You know I've been really busy.

I'm here now, aren't I?

Is grilled pork belly all you want?

Isn't this too simple?

Are you all right?

Yes, I'm fine.

Hey.

Hurry up.

-Quickly.
-Okay.

I'm going to faint.

Just wait.

Ta-da.

GHOST PARK HYE-JIN

Eat slowly.

-It's good.
-Indigestion can last a year.

Is this really all you want?

I have no other favor to ask you.

I don't want my kids to know
that I'm still here as a ghost.

We're going to go up there soon.

Thanks for keeping me company
for five years when I was a ghost.

There's always a way to survive.

Even when you're dead,

you make friends and carry on.

Even ghosts

have to say goodbye.

Whether you're alive or dead,
life is always about parting.

You have to say goodbye

to meet again.

You're right.

Let's reborn as people
and meet again in the next life.

Yes,

let's meet again!

-All right.
-All right.

-Cheers!
-Cheers!

RETURN FAVORS

Well, he's a family friend.

He hasn't had a home-cooked meal.

I owe him.

Yes, she does owe me, but

do you know my family?

You probably didn't know this,

but I do.

Make yourself at home at eat up.
This is what we usually eat.

Thank you.

ENJOY EVERYDAY LIFE LIKE OTHER MOMS

Seo-woo, try this.

Is it good?

-That was really something.
-Is that what you did?

-I had fun.
-Did you have fun?

Ha-jun had fun.

Goodness.

My goodness.

SAY GOODBYE TO MY FAMILY

-This is so nice.
-Try this, Dad.

What?

-What is it?
-It's pork.

-It's good.
-Isn't it?

Seo-woo, Grandma's tired.

Seo-woo.

-Come and eat.
-Okay.

-You're so good.
-Good job.

-Goodness.
-Seo-woo.

-Come here.
-Come to Auntie, Seo-woo.

Goodness.

-In the middle.
-I want to be next to Seo-woo.

Goodness.

It's warm.

SAY GOODBYE TO MY CLOSEST ONES

Seo-woo. Ha-jun. Are you happy?

-Yes!
-Yes!

Do you know where we're going?

-Camping!
-Camping!

-Let's go!
-That's right.

-Let's go camping!
-Let's go!

Hey, play some music or something.

What music? Let's just go.

Go right next to them.

-Why?
-I want to see Yu-ri. Drive up.

Gosh.

Hey, roll down the window.

Roll it down.

Yu-ri!

Yu-ri! I'm bored!

-I want to be in that car.
-Yu-ri, roll it up.

-Dad!
-I can sit between...

Don't go!

What's wrong with him?

He must be really bored.

Don't go!

Yu-ri!

I bought a lot of meat this time!

All right.

There.

Run!

-Run along.
-Ha-jun, pass it to Daddy.

She's good. Ha-jun, the ball!

Get the ball!
Let's see who can kick better.

The dad just got his daughter.

Seo-woo, are you okay?

They're so excited.

What's this?

Min-jeong

stopped by the restaurant.

She left this for you.

She even asked me for a favor.

What favor?

She asked me to send you off well...

With Gang-hwa.

She said it'd make her feel relieved.

Min-jeong is too nice.

Will she

divorce him?

I don't know.

I told you. It's not your fault.

It wasn't really
working out between them anyway.

They were too thoughtful and considerate

because they found each other pitiful,
but that made them distant.

That's not good.

It worked out rather well.

Because they found out they had a problem.

You have enough worries of your own.

Smile.

I told you to smile.

Okay? Smile.

-Aren't you going to smile?
-Gosh.

Goodness.

Well done.

-Kick it this way.
-Gosh.

Goodness.

Ha-jun, run!

Good. Kick it.

One more time.

Hi.

Kitchen lady.

Pick-up helper.

Yu-ri.

Seo-woo's mom.

I have no courage to see you,

so I'm sending you a letter.

Come to think of it,
I'm angry not only because

you and Gang-hwa lied to me,

but also because
I'm sad to lose a friend.

I must say

thank you so much

for being my friend.

Because there is

no next time for you.

I'm really glad

that you are

Seo-woo's mom.

Also, I'm glad

that I met you.

Have a good time.

Goodbye,

my friend.

Don't worry too much about Seo-woo.

I'll protect her

with all my heart.

-You know this, right?
-Okay.

Clap.

Ha-jun, clap.

Ha-jun, dance.

1, 2, 3, 4.

-As you live in this world
-As you live in this world

-You'll find that there is
-You'll find that there is

-something more valuable than money
-something more valuable than money

-The game of love
-The game of love

-isn't that important
-isn't that important

-As you live in this world
-As you live in this world

-You'll find that there is
-You'll find that there is

more happiness

than sadness

Life is about

-what and how you do
-How?

What are you thinking?

I'm thinking

that this is so nice.

Are you happy?

Yes.

When I was a ghost,

I was sad because I could only watch,

and I had to leave without anyone knowing.

But now I get to leave
laughing and smiling.

I'm happy.

Don't you have any regrets?

Regrets?

Do you know

what I could count on the most
when I was alive?

What was it?

Mom.

My mom.

She always had my back.

So I could do anything
without getting scared.

To Seo-woo,

I wanted to be a mom like that.

Someone she can count on the most.

It's a shame that I can't be that.

I'll pass it over to you now.

You can be a dad she can count on.

Okay.

I will.

What did you miss the most after I died?

Not being able to grow old with you.

We probably would've argued every day,

but I wanted to be with you every day.

I wanted to see Seo-woo go to college,

see her get married,

and have children.

That's what I wanted in life.

When we would've gotten old and gray,

I would've held your hand

and said thank you

and that we did a great job.

I had been dreaming

of that day to come.

That's the biggest regret.

I also

wanted to live like that with you.

But

you left Seo-woo with me.

So thank you.

She the biggest gift

you gave me.

You have to live

the rest of your life to the fullest.

For Seo-woo,

live happily.

I will.

If you ever think of me,

don't cry, but smile.

Don't be sad.

Please smile.

I will.

I'll remember you.

I'll only cherish

the happy memories.

I'll do that.

Thank you.

Seo-woo.

My pretty Seo-woo.

Always be joyful.

Always smile.

In the next life,

please

come to Mommy again.

Okay?

Bye, Mom.

My dear, Ms. Mi-dong.

Thank you.

Don't mention it.

Are you trying to

make me cry?

Did you

say goodbye to everyone?

Yes.

That's your blessing.

Not everyone gets to say goodbye
before they die.

The one up there must like you a lot.

Didn't you say it was a punishment?

You're leaving.

Let's not fight.

Okay.

You should say goodbye

to yourself now.

Though it's not your perfect body,

you should say goodbye.

Cha Yu-ri.

Goodbye.

Bye.

Gang-hwa.

Seo-woo.

When you go to Heaven,
God will ask you two questions.

If you answer yes to both questions,

you can be reborn as a human
in your next life.

One question is,
"Were you happy with your life?"

The other question is,

"Were other people happy because of me?"

Let's be reborn as humans

and meet again in the next life.

I LOVE YOU AS ALWAYS

My baby,

will you remember that I was with you?

PETALS FALL, BUT THE FLOWER ENDURES

-Seo-woo.
-Cho Seo-woo.

Mom! Dad!

SCRIPT CHO SEO-WOO

Don't you have any surgery today?

No.

That's new.

You never leave the OR.

He ran here to see the cherry blossoms
with you before they were gone.

Really?

Goodness.

Petals fall, but the flower endures.

The scent remained in the world

and permeated

our memory deeply.

PETALS FALL, BUT THE FLOWER ENDURES
