Episode 9 part 4

(Kim Chu Seok's flashback POV.)
Bom: "Seoul is very far away! It's not like I got money to move to Seoul..."
"I mean... How are we supposed to get marry and live together...?"

She stuttered.

Chu Seok: "Why are you talking about marriage when we just dated? I will tell my parents about this, I gotta go and help my family."
"Good night."

Then he walked off away from her. Young Chu Seok is ready to leave his house as his family was catching a truck and car to move to Seoul, but he hesitate to go when he stared outside waiting for Bom.

Chu Seok's mother: "Hurry up and get inside of the car!"

As his mother shouted, then he went inside of his car and have left Toro forever. He went far away from Toro as he really miss his girlfriend Bom so much. Then he shed his tears down when his head was leaning on the window car. Leaving with his parents and his two older brothers. Many years later, he could not call Bom on a telephone and when he visit her house, someone has already living inside of her house as Bom doesn't live in her old house anymore. Chu Seok cannot find Bom no matter how he searched for her everywhere in Toro village, she is a goner to him.

Young Chu Seok: "Bom, I'm so sorry that you've waited for me for so long."
"Where are you?"

As he worried while talking to him self, exhaling the wind out from his mouth in this freezing weather. Chu Seok was traumatized when losing his whole memory as a dementia problem, that's why he couldn't remember Bom to find her earlier.
(Kim Chu Seok's end of flashback.)

Kim Chu Seok is still on his car while letting his chauffeur driving him and two of kids to Toro village. Traveling to Toro reminds him of his old trauma memory from his adolescent past life.

Kim Chu Seok: "Bom, at least I found your grand daughter, she is finally with me now."
"But did you really die...?"

As he spoke inside of his head while leaning his head on a car window, shedding his tears down. He thinks about Bom when had a good time with her. He hanged out with her often after school and they kissed in front of fireworks, good old time.

Gaeul: "Grandpa, are you okay?"

She asked him.

Kim Chu Seok: "Huh?"

As he turned his face towards to her and to wipe his tears, he sniffles. Then Gaeul begins to cuddle her grandpa's arm and to lean her head on his shoulder.

Kim Chu Seok: "I can't believe that I left grandma with my cold words."
"I can't believe that I spoke the last word to her that I said "Why you talked about marriage when we just met?""
"And I cannot believe that was my last day of seeing her so suddenly."
"I should have hug her and kiss her before going to Seoul."

He spoke, as Gaeul and Jeong Eui listened to him inside of the car driving on the highway road.

Gaeul: "It's not your fault, grandpa, I'm sure grandma forgave you."

She told him, as she stopped hugging his arm.

Kim Chu Seok: "I want to see Bom's grave first when I stepped inside of Toro village."
"Please show me the way there before I meet your father."

He begged.

Gaeul; "Okay, I will take you there."
"Go to sleep and I will wake you up when we're there."
