That Winter, the Wind Blows (2013): Season 1, Episode 1 - Episode #1.1 - full transcript

EPISODE 1

Is it wrong what I'm saying?

Can't I just live like this?

Do people need a reason to live?

How do people live

with no meaning?

Is that so?

What about the family?

The family?

The family.

The family.



Reporter Kim has the latest on it.

Chairman Oh of the PL Group
has been in a coma due to a stroke.

He's been unable to serve as chairman
for the last 300 days until today.

Conflict is growing
over who the next chairman will be.

CHAIRMAN OH IN COMA

PL is the only domestic company
that has developed its own technology.

For the past 24 years,

PL Group has made tremendous progress
in the apparel industry.

Chairman Oh Se Young
has a 26 year-old daughter,

Oh Young.

FUTURE OF PL GROUP...

Ms. Oh Young's fiancé, Lee Myung Ho,

has served as chairman
for the past 300 days.

Whether or not PL Group
chooses a new chairman



or waits for the chairman's recovery,

it is faced with a big decision.

I can't act as chairman anymore.

I'd like to marry Young
while the chairman is alive.

When an elder is sick,

we are not supposed to plan
a big event, right?

Attorney Jang?

That's right.

No matter how urgent,
we shouldn't do that.

The doctor told us to be prepared.

If you face this alone without your dad--

My dad...

is still alive.

Watch what you say.

-All in.
-Call.

Ace, two pair.

King. Full house.

Wait.

Two poker.

What the fuck?

You are all in on this.
Why is it always me?

Why do I keep losing?

This is not the time to laugh.

I think you're right.
There are a lot of them.

What are you doing? Get them!

People want to find the meaning of life.

So...

to find the meaning of life,

some risk their lives
for someone they won't even remember.

And there are others

who put their lives at risk

chasing a dream that will vanish.

Everyone searches for the meaning of life.

So, in this screwed-up life,

should I try to find the meaning, too?

Would that bring about
a change in my life?

I lived life believing
I couldn't trust anyone but myself.

Will the sun shine brightly
on someone like me?

So, should I try?

Someday....

you'll leave me.

Things turn out the way you believe.

I've got nothing to lose.

Should I just believe
all the stupid things people say?

Even if I'm fooled?

Will that make my life more interesting?

You are...

cruel.

I admit it.

Good night, Young.

If you are the only son of the chairman,
I am Steve Jobs' son.

I would lie to others,

but I wouldn't lie to you guys.

My mom got divorced
when I was eight and my sister was six.

She took only you,
but left your sister with your dad.

But your mom suddenly passed away.

That's why you are living like this,
as a maid.

-Telling the same lies, again?
-What I said is true.

Okay, then, go ask your dad for money

and stop working as a maid.

When my mom was dying,
she told me not to ask my dad for money.

I'm trying to respect her wish.

When I become a chef
in an Italian restaurant,

I will show up proudly
before my sister and dad--

Proudly? In your dreams.

FROM: OH SOO

I told you to change your name.

I hate that you have
the same name as my brother.

And you're using my address?

It's Soo's address, not yours!

I did that because there is no one
at my house to get the mail.

Your name means save?

My mom chose the name so that
I can save my sister and the world.

You don't find that meaning used in names.

But it's cool. Soo means saving.

Oh Young is my sister.

What's the meaning of yours?

No special meaning. It just means a tree.

A tree?

It's because I was abandoned
under a tree as an infant.

There were many trees
near the orphanage, too.

The director named me.

Is that true?

Was he abandoned under a tree?

I'm asking who you slept with last night.

Silence is admission.
Are you admitting your guilt?

-What a slut!
-Breakfast is ready!

Do you love So Ra?

I only love you.

What a jerk!

Aren't you gonna paint?

Go home! I don't wanna see you.

You should be working on your art
instead of messing with those girls.

Where's your wallet?

-His wallet? Why?
-By the bed.

You're spoiling her with money.

It's for the plant.

She buys plants that cost ten dollars,
but takes $100.

She says she's a florist,
but acts more like a thief.

If you keep talking to me disrespectfully,

you will be in big trouble
when I get in a bad mood!

Hey, hey, hey.

Why was that there?

Why did you search my bed?

Oh, my God. You're a nut.

Jin Sung,

did he really kill Hee Sun's sister?

Who killed who?

He broke up with her
after dating for a while.

She got so mad, she drove
her motorcycle into a truck--

Soo!

There are no towels. Bring some.

Okay.

Please prepare well for winter.

We lost so many trees last year.

Okay.

Is the maid home?

Well, I'm not sure.

I think she said she'd clean out the back.
Ms. Young is at home--

You came out yourself.
Did Secretary Wang go somewhere?

She's in the garden.

I see. May I ask for your signature here?

We have some registered mail.

Okay, here and here.

Here.

What kind of mail did we get?

This and that. Some tax bills.

Let's see.

Oh Soo?

Your brother sent you a letter again.

He has sent letters every few months
since last fall.

Have you not seen the letters?

He sent them registered mail.

I delivered them to Secretary Wang,
in person.

Oh... those.

I've read them.
Could you hand me the mail?

Of course, here it is.

-Take care.
-Goodbye.

Excuse me! Excuse me!

Mister!

Hello!

Hello?

Are you going somewhere?

I'm blind. Where could I go?

I'm off to the community center.

You need the driver?

I stopped using a car
after my dad got sick.

I called a cab.

Taking a cab alone--

We all live our lives alone.

I have to become stronger,
in case my dad goes away.

You still don't trust me.

Because of you,
my mom and dad got divorced,

and my mom and brother left me.

I don't think time alone
will help me to trust you.

However, my dad has always trusted you,

more than he trusted me.

Oh,

by the way...

you really haven't heard about my brother

since my mom passed away 14 years ago?

Your dad asked me not to look for him--

Did he say that when my mom was alive?

I hate my dad.

While he couldn't be...

by my side,

he turned me into a loner

and did not let me look for my brother.

Anyway...

why did you come here?

I was...

wondering if you got the mail.

The mail? No.

The mailman...

Miss, the cab is here.

I must go now.

The post office in Soojung-dong, please.

Can you please go by the address
on the hand-written letter?

Oh, this?

Okay. I got it.

Here.

-A hand-written letter?
-Yes.

Can you check if a hand-written letter
was delivered here today?

Hold on.

Yes, the record shows
a piece of registered mail.

Hello?

The alarm went off
in the chairman's room--

It's a false alarm.

Nothing happened.

Miss, turn around and go straight.

There is a gate on the right.

-You know the suite number, right?
-Yes.

From where you're standing,
the door is on your left.

Okay.

By the way...

are you really the sister of Oh Soo
who lives here?

Do you wanna see him?

No, it's okay.

Who's there?

Who is it?

Who are you?

I'm Young.

Young? Who is Young?

Is this Oh Soo's home?

Yes, it is, and I'm Oh Soo.

I got the letter you sent me.

The letter?

Oh, the other--

He is not here. He went to study.

He'll be back at 3:00 p.m.

Hey, Oh Soo is not--

You just said you were Oh Soo.

I don't understand
why you said he's not here.

Well...

your brother and I have the same name.

Your brother is not here.

And I'm dead tired,
so stop ringing the bell.

Boss!

-Me?
-Yes.

I told you to call me "36th floor".

Every resident here is a boss,
so it confuses me.

Okay. Well...

she's been standing there for three hours.

That blind lady said
she was waiting for her brother.

Have you been waiting here
for three hours?

Standing here this whole time?

Who are you?

Me?

Guy on the intercom.

Oh... yes.

Would you like to wait in the house?
Want my key?

-No, thanks.
-Okay.

Excuse me.

Can you please read this letter for me?

Here.

Maybe the letter from my brother.

I don't know which one it is.

I'd like to know what he wrote.

You can't see?

No.

-I'm busy, but--
-My dad is sick.

I want to know if my brother
can come see my dad.

Sorry, I forgot you can't see.

Let's go outside.

There are too many people here.

Oh...

should I hold your hand?

I can hear your footsteps. You can go.

Let me know if there are obstacles.

Footsteps.

There are stairs in about four steps.

"Hi, Young. This is your brother.

I guess you would know that
if you read the envelope.

I guess he doesn't know you are blind.

He left when I was six.

I wasn't blind then.

"As I wrote previously,

I'm doing well,
running an Italian restaurant."

It's all a lie.

What was that?

Never mind. Talking to myself.

"Are you not going to come and see me?

If you want to see me,
come to the address on the envelope.

In fact, it's my business partner's house.

But I will buy it soon.

As I said, after Mom passed away,

he was the only one I trusted.
His name is Oh Soo, too.

It's crazy."

He is the one who used the word "crazy".

"How have you been doing?

Are you still a troublemaking, cute girl?"

You don't look like a troublemaker at all.

Keep reading, please.

"I'm wondering what you look like now.

How tall you are
and what type of personality you have.

I wonder if you feel lonely

living all alone

with our stern and strict father.

Thank you.

I'll continue reading it.

"I'd like to get your advice on
what I should do with a person like this.

Oh Soo who lives with me,

is living as a total punk,
relying on his fists and good looks..."

This is how he talks about me.

Well, your brother bluffs a lot.

I'll skip the part about me

and read the rest
since I want to keep my privacy.

Okay.

Why aren't you reading?

Soo, where are you?

By my house.

Run! Get out of there!

The cops are after you.

That bitch So Ra accused you
of embezzling the club money.

The news spread.

The cops are investigating,
and So Ra ran away.

Get out of there!

If you get caught, you're done!

Are you listening? Are you?

Oh, what are you doing?

Just a minute.

I won't hurt you. Just a minute.

Your brother will be here shortly.

After I leave, go to the guard
and look for your brother.

Oh.

At the end of the letter,

he said, "I love you."

Goodbye.

Excuse me?

Excuse me. My... my cane.

Stop! Stop there!

Stop!

Oh. Soo, Soo!

-What's going on?
-Let me go.

Soo!

You have a call from attorney Jang.

Hello, it's me.

Soo!

Wait!

Your dad is in critical condition.

Hurry home.

Taxi. Taxi.

Hey!

Wait. Wait a second.

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi!

Taxi! Taxi!

CORRECTIONAL FACILITY

LEGAL MEETING ROOM

What's with you?

You got me good.

So...

You accuse me of embezzling
Kim's club money?

I did that?

I've never even been in his office.

You think I manipulated his accounting?

You call yourself a lawyer?

You got me into this.

She's not smart enough to do this.

What's the reason?

Just for a year.

Rot here in jail.

No.

I will get out on bail.

According to the prosecution,

you embezzled half a million dollars.

-That is small enough--
-No.

You embezzled seven million.

What? Seven million?

Embezzlement, illegal poker games, fraud.

You'll never get out.

The agreed term
with the prosecution is a year.

That is...

because I love you.

Stay here just for one year
while I film in the States.

You are free here while I'm in the States.

No.

I'm afraid you might leave me and go away.

After one year, go to Switzerland.

I put the money in a safe account.

Kim thinks you have the money.

You know how scary he is.

If you stay in Seoul,

he will do anything to get the money back.

Don't appeal.

The prosecutor is also in on this.

When you get out,

go to Switzerland.

And...

we'll live together there.

Is this what you call...

love?

Fuck you.

Even if I get killed by Kim,

we are through.

Damn it.

Kim took your house, car,
cash, and stock. Bastard.

I got so mad that I screwed around
in his club,

and he broke my arm.

So I went there again.

Then, he broke my leg.

My leg healed,

and I went there
with a container of gasoline.

He gave me money.

He asked me to work for him.
But who am I?

I'm the loyal Park Jin Sung,
so I spit in his face.

Then he punched me, and I lost two teeth.

Two implants.

Did you spread Soo's ashes here?

Yes.

He asked me to do this before he died.

Then he told me to go to PL Group
if life got too rough.

That they'd help me.

He lied to the end.

But he was a good person.

We have to live in his attic.
There is nowhere to go.

Give up this line of work.

What?

Or work for Kim.

Did they feed you spoiled food in prison?

That's what you say after I waited
for you all this time? What nonsense.

I'm not kidding.

You said your dream is to buy your father
100 cows, and build him a barn.

You are a man.

-A man can betray a friend for his dream--
-You betray me!

You can't do it! Why? Because you love me.

Because we are men of loyalty.

What's our plan now?

Shall we get back to the poker table?

Shall we get Kim and take over our town?

You just don't listen.

Yes! Now invincible Oh Soo
and Park Jin Sung are making their way!

You're all dead!

This is the end of that cheap
rental car. Let's go.

No gambling chips?

What are you afraid?
He wins 99.9% of the time.

Okay. Ask Jang to come out.

Boss Jang!

Soo! I'm sorry.

Kim has our hands tied.

Please understand.

Oh Soo!

Hey!

Here. It's not much, but...

What? Do you think we are beggars?

Seriously!

You bastard!

-Let go of me!
-Stop!

Stay still.

You punks!

I would've killed you all.
Soo saved your lives!

Man Doo, it's me, Soo.

You know how I'm doing.

Let's meet first.

What? Busy?

Are you...

avoiding me?

Hello? He...

Is that Man Doo?

You're dead.

You look lonely.

Why am I so hot all year round?

Seven point eight million.

You owe Kim seven million,

plus my ten percent collection fee.

Interest for one year.
That's seven point eight million.

When are you gonna pay it?

Seven point eight million
is a joke, right?

I've never seen that kind of money.

Me neither.

But I plan to see that
when I get the money back.

What will you do
if I don't give you the money?

You already know.

Either you die,

or we both die, if I'm not strong enough.

You have 100 days starting from today.

Next time,
it'll be four inches to the right.

Talking to you so nicely...

might make you think we are still friends,

and that I'm a pushover.

To the hospital.

PL GROUP

LONG TERM PARKLAND INVESTMENT
PRESENTATION

I'm a bit nervous standing here.

It's not because I cannot see.

My dad would have felt the same way.

I'm not much of a speaker,
so I'll end my introduction here.

Watch the presentation.

PARKLAND 24 YEARS
GOOD CLOTHES, GOOD PRICE

PL Group understands the fashion
that the current generation demands.

We strive to become the leading company.

Thank you.

It went really well today.

All the investors were looking at you
like you were a celebrity.

They all wanted detailed information.

Well...

If your dad was alive,
he would be so proud of you.

Thinking about it brought me to tears.

I'm sure today was my last day.

I know I'm the chairwoman only in name.

When my tenure ends in three months,

stockholders will nominate Kim
as the chairman.

They acknowledged me
only for today's presentation.

For this project, my blindness
adds some value to the product.

The media are also interested in me
making a presentation,

like a blind monkey in a zoo.

Nevertheless, it was fun to come to
a place like this,

away from home and the center.

Bye, Young.

You're not coming to the house today?

Let's dine together later.

Your dad asked me to do something.

I only need to care for you,
not worry about the company.

I want to keep my promise.

What did he ask you to do?

It's a surprise!

You'll like it.

Drive safely.

Hello? This is Jang.

What? Did you find him?

Sure, let's meet.

What was Jang talking about?

I don't know.

Which reminds me,
when will you marry Myung Ho?

It's been two years since you got engaged.

I will not marry him.

The engagement was Dad's idea.
I'm not interested.

Why?

I thought you were interested in him, no?

Do people get married
just because their interested?

-That's--
-Why?

Should I get married out of interest
just because I'm blind?

That's not what I meant.

That's how it sounded to me.

Let's say that I have a complex
due to my handicap.

Where is he?

-Where did he go?
-Looking for your friend?

He changed his clothes and left.

Changed and left?

Where would he go like that?
Such a troublemaker!

Are you deaf? Get everyone out!

Soo is on his way.

Make everyone go to the back.

I will not tolerate anyone missing.

You think I'll die alone?

Did you call your boys?

No. No boys.

I wouldn't.

You've cared for me for so many years.

I wouldn't do that.

Everybody can do that, but you, Man Doo...

you can't do that!

Sure. Of course, I can't do that to you.

You fed me.

-Just fed?
-Huh?

Did I just feed you?

You helped me to buy a house.

And saved my life.

Get him!

Are you so naive, expecting loyalty
in this circle? That's no fun.

Time flies, doesn't it?

You have 93 days left.

Excuse me. May I ask you a question?

Is this...

Is this Oh Soo's house?

Yes.

Is he here?

I'm Oh Soo.

You're Oh Soo?

Why do you look like...

Wait.

It's me. attorney Jang.

You changed so much.

Don't you remember me?

I'm the lawyer for PL Group,

your dad's company.

He and I went to the same school.

We often went fishing together.

You don't remember?

PL GROUP ATTORNEY JANG SUNG

As the only son and heir of PL Group,

I'd never live like you guys
even if I die.

He asked me to do this before he died.

He told me to go to PL Group
if life got too rough.

He said they'd help me.

Seven point eight million.

You have 93 days left.

What's wrong, Soo?

You don't remember me at all?

No.

I remember.

You've aged.

What's wrong with
pretending to be her brother?

Seven point eight million
should be nothing to them.

No matter what happens,

I apologize for that.

Maybe another reason.

Another reason?

Money.

You know the situation?

Talk her into it.

I know about rich girls.

"It must have been hard.
You must have been hurt."

Isn't that what you want to ask?

Will she hand over 7.8 million easily?

What happens if she dies?
