Romance: Ep 10 Recap

Always from the awesome rockmelon123 @soompi, thanks to her ^^

-Episode 10-

"sunghyun [text message]: you get off in the morning right? eat breakfast with me before you go! i asked the chef from the western restaurant prepare a picnic set. pick you up at the crossing like last time.
couple chant: oh yeah~! unbelievable/ridiculous timing! let's go~~
inyoung [narrate]: dating in secret was exhilarating.

owner and couple out on a picnic breakfast date in the park. ^-^
sunghyun says he found something interesting and takes out the evaluation inyoung wrote about him 6 months ago. he reads out a truckload of compliments while inyoung gets embarrassed. friendly face, a smile that gives off a good vibe~ she's given him an A+! sunghyun teases her that she fell for him hard, only to have inyoung fight back, reminding him that the evaluation wasn't done as a woman judging a man, but as a superior.

sunghyun: judge me from a woman's point of view then. or tell me shortly that you love me.
inyoung: just eat instead! you seem like a good guy, it's all written there~
sunghyun: do you not say 'i love you' often? are you that sort of a girl? i'm a sensitive man that can't say' i'm hurt' when i'm hurt. now is that time.

at an art gallery, seoyeon asks inyoung what's so hard about saying 'i love you'. inyoung says she wanted to say it but the words just couldn't come out. hyunjoo asks how can she say 'i love you' when it's not love and comments that love is something that makes the heart beat fast. inyoung agrees, saying that when she kissed sungsoo years ago her heart was going so fast she thought it was going to explode. seoyeon reckons it has to do with age instead of the partner. the girls ask if seoyeon tells alex she loves him and when she answers with yes they wonder whether that's lying or not. seoyeon justifies that she loves alex but their way of loving is different and she's loving him in her own way. she makes a good point asking if there's a rule that requires people to love in the same way. seoyeon admits that her desires are most important and knows that they think she has issues but she sees the other two as having more problems: hyunjoo doesn't know what she really wants while inyoung is not honest with her feelings. hyunjoo wants herself to be blissful/happy only to be told to think about what being blissful means. inyoung is not impressed with seoyeon's teaching attitude. seoyeon says that love isn't anything impressive, if you're happy when you're together and if you want to be together for longer then that's love. how can the heart tell whether it's love or not? love is something that comes even without the heart knowing, suddenly one day.

the two problematic friends are angry about being schooled by seoyeon and grumble while leaving. they're envious of her and can't understand why she's so well off while she's cheating all the time. inyoung narrates that seoyeon hangs out with the people she wants whenever she likes and when she wants to leave, she leaves. good girls go to heaven when they die, but in love, seoyeon goes to wherever she wants to go. seoyeon has bought a camera and asks joonee to teach her how to use it. she finds the beach pictures nice but is told that those without her face are the ones he's using for his exhibition.

sunghyun calls inyoung as she practices her guitar. sunghyun says her guitar skills and singing are weird. he puts on a record and shares music with inyoung through the phone as he can't call her to his room. the music brings up memories that she thought she had forgotten. inyoung tells sunghyun that she knows this piece of music. inyoung thinks back to a movie date she and sungsoo had years back. the two of them had set up the projector and sungsoo has become all emotional and cries while inyoung has fallen asleep. kim sungsoo weeps like a true wuss while inyoung asks him why he's crying.

the guy in the movie[from subtitles]: i really want to live with you. let's live together. give me an answer. talk if you have a mouth. if we live together everybody will be envious of us. there are lots of women prettier than you and woman who are better than you. i could have married women like that but i didn't. i want to marry you.

inyoung [narrates]: this piece of music was the music played in the last scene of that movie.
sunghyun: how do you know it? you've heard of it often?
inyoung: just... it's just a piece i know.

-flashback-

inyoung: why did you cry just then?
sungsoo: coz my heart was hot[means he had a fuzzy feeling?].
inyoung: why? i didn't find it interesting.
sungsoo: the guy was constantly proposing to the girl, but because he was so poor, the girl's grandmother objected the marriage. ah it was the best. of all the movies i've seen, that was the best proposal scene. really.
inyoung: there was no music playing, no candles, not even flowers. what was so good about the proposal?
sungsoo: everyone shoots it like that, but this director didn't shoot it that way so it was good. ha, i can't explain it with words. it's really the best. the poor man's sincerity i felt at that moment.
inyoung [narrates]: i learnt another way of enjoying movies from him
sungsoo: i really want to make movies. i saw that scene and thought i was going to die from wanting to make movies.

inyoung: after we finish our ramyun, let's shoot a movie like that too. you propose to me while following me around. aren't you thankful that i'm going out with an unemployed man like you? you have nothing either[i.e. you're poor], got a pig, a cow, a car or a house? do the proposal. like hosaeng [i'm guessing the dude in the movie], poorly and beautifully.
sungsoo: if we slept together, that should have been the end. [we could also be interchangeable with they, not quite sure what context they're talking in but i'm guessing sungsoo meant themselves, could be my misinterpretation.]
inyoung: what do you mean?
sungsoo: just as i said it. if we've slept together that much/enough, why touch that subject now? [changed it to make sense in english] getting married is then -
inyoung: i'm angry now. propose immediately. like hosaeng, touchingly, enough to cause tears. we're going to start. ready, action.
sungsoo: marry me. although i don't possess anything, i can make you happy. let me do stuff like this. i'm not asking you to marry me for you to do things like this. since you like going to clubs with your friends, you can play like that every day. true, i might ask you to do stuff sometimes but i won't ask you to do a lot like other men. let's get married. please marry me. if you want to marry me, throw me that cloth. why aren't you talking? because i don't have a house and i'm not able [able as in have power to do stuff]? are you saying that right now? because i'm poor now, you think i'll be poor forever?? hurry and throw the cloth to me! i have a dream. i'm definitely going to be a movie director and we'll be become a married couple that everyone's envious of. let's get married.
inyoung drops the cloth.
sungsoo: you should at least throw the cloth before you go! what are you? are you saying you don't want to marry me? don't play around and answer me. are you hesitating now because i'm not able[able as in have power to do stuff]? could it be that you don't trust me? i was joking about the 'if we slept together, that's the end' just then. but hey, aren't you separating going out and getting married[as in you'd go out with a guy but wouldn't marry him]? if you don't answer me in 3 seconds, i'm going to kick you with my foot. 1 second, 2 seconds, 3 seconds!! so you're not going to answer me huh!
inyoung: we're shooting a movie right now! what are you doing!! did hosaeng kick teyi[main characters in movie i guess] with his feet?
sungsoo: i've caught your true feelings, that you don't want to marry me because i'm don't have power[or able, you guys know what i mean by now right?]!!
inyoung: if you want to get married, take an oath.
sungsoo: what!
inyoung: that you'll only love me until you die. that you won't ever cheat or do something like that.
sungsoo: why take an oath for something that's a given. i'm not going to hurt you in any way.
inyoung: you promised!
sungsoo: so, you're promising that we're getting married too.
inyoung: it's already like we're married. we're together every day.
sungsoo: so, wife, let's hurry and sleep.

inyoung [narrates]: can't return to that time anymore. the kim sungsoo back then, the sunwoo inyoung back then, they've both gone. all the beautiful moments we had have become shatters.
sunghyun [text message]: if you're not asleep yet come out. i'm in front of your house.
inyoung: why'd you come here and not sleep.
-skinship-
sunghyun: think about the sad stuff only in the day[day time]. think about good stuff before you sleep. don't listen to music and cry. are there that many memories? everything's weird about you, but you're eyes are okay to look at. if it's all swollen, where should i look at? we're leaving now. get going~!
sunghyun sings and cheers inyoung up. major head banging action happening.
inyoung [narrates]: as time goes by, i'm going to remember this song[the one puppy sang] too. the way sunghyun approached my hurt heart tonight, how comforting it was, how warm my heart has become now. i'm going to remember all this and i'll most likely miss it[think about it].

-part one-
-to be continued-

-part two-
- commence-

inyoung is at work and comes across sungsoo filming. he's not happy at kanghee as she's forgotten the lines again. kanghee sees inyoung and is clearly affected by her. kanghee runs off. sungsoo see inyoung, but looks away, leaving inyoung slightly puzzled. she texts sungsoo, saying that there's a lot to settle between them and that if they're going to finish the relationship, they should be settle it once and for all. she sends him a second text asking about what she should do with his stuff left in her house. annoyed, sungsoo tells her to throw it all out if she wants to. inyoung replies that she wants her stuff in his apartment back. she says that she doesn't want him going to her house, so he should bring her stuff and meet in the middle[between her house and his] at 9pm.

sungsoo tells kanghee off but she fights back saying that if he yells at her in front of inyoung once more she's going to quit. she demands that he treat her well because she's not the same kid as she was when they did their first movie together and that she's a woman that he once liked. hearing this, sungsoo corrects her:

sungsoo: that's not how it was. i didn't dislike you but, kanghee, guys are -
kanghee: love is the same, no difference between men or women. there could be a side that likes the other a bit more but you're lying if you say you didn't like me. do you think i'm so stupid to the extent that i can tell if a person likes me or hates me?
[translated this bit out coz it highlights the fact that sungsoo is still in denial]

kanghee says that she'll give him as much time as he needs while being confused about going to her side and that he can talk about this next time but not in front of inyoung. she says that he shouldn't treat her poorly and as time goes by, he'll regret hurting her like this for sure.

inyoung is packing sungsoo's stuff and comments that each item has a story related to it. a t-shirt that sungsoo wore while going on the camping trip, a guitar that sungsoo spent 3 months pay on, a door knob that sungsoo told her to change because it doesn't shut right, a tv that sungsoo stored all the channels on the remote con, a fridge that sungsoo thinks requires fixing.

inyoung [narrates]: ten years. a third of my life. the most important and beautiful time of my life[her twenties]. i spent it with kim sungsoo. is it possible to erase all those times? even if i erase all those time, will i still be sunwoo inyoung? a thing called memories has done nothing wrong. even if you hate the separation, there's no need to ruin memories.

inyoung and sungsoo meet:
inyoung: didn't you go home?
sungsoo: i went home and came out, i saw you and bae sunghyun together[pinic breakfast date]. you were shining [twinkle twinkle]. i didn't like you being with him, i hated it so much i couldn't bear it. you wished for me to be hurt didn't you? i'll try and hurt as much as you hurt. but let me ask you one thing, if i hurt as much as you did, do you start to hate? do i become like you and not love?
inyoung: i'll ask you once too. speak as a person with experience. if you cheat, does the woman you used to go out with become precious? and you become afraid of losing her?
sungsoo: you're right, i'm afraid of losing you.
inyoung: while i was next to you, when you had me, you should have been good to me. you should have found me precious then!
sungsoo: i'm telling you i didn't know what was precious then!!!
inyoung: i didn't even ask for much, just that one person by my side. i went out with you and because i loved you, i wanted to be with you forever. that's all i wanted! but you ruined everything.
sungsoo: let's think of a way to turn things around[and go back].
there's no such method, i think it doesn't exist now.
sungsoo: if there's stuff you want to get back, go get it when i'm not home. i don't want to give them back to you or throw them away. they're left the same way you put it, so you do what you want.

inyoung [narrates]: is it possible to go back[things return to before] like he said? is there a way to turn back even now[before it's too late]? i wanted to turn back and have things the way they were before. i thought it would be possible to turn things around.

inyoung visits sungsoo's apartment with hope:
inyoung: i came because i have something to say.
sungsoo: come in.
inyoung: stop working with yoon kanghee.
sungsoo: how can i stop, i've signed a contract.
inyoung: find a way to not do it. there must be a way right?
sungsoo: i need that kid, inyoung.
inyoung: think again about what's important, didn't you say you know what's precious now?
sungsoo: i won't do stuff like that[i.e. cheat] again. i 'm not going to.
inyoung: i want to become happy with you. let's stop and become happy again.
sungsoo: just trust me and forgive me once more.
inyoung: so everything's all good if i forgive you? while you're stuck to that kid every day?
sungsoo: i know you don't like seeing us together, but it means nothing. let both of us work hard to let thing go back to how they were before.
inyoung: i didn't say i didn't like it[him working with kanghee] last time. please sungsoo.
-kanghee enters-
sungsoo: we were going to watch dvds. it's work!
inyoung: it's work?
sungsoo: inyoung please!
inyoung: should the three of us watch together? can i come in between and watch it together, the three of us?
sungsoo: [to kanghee] come next time {come next time?? why would say next time in front of your raging girlfriend???}
inyoung: no, i'm going to go. you two work.
sungsoo: inyoung -
inyoung: you slept with her. did you forget? you don't understand what i mean? don't you know? this is the last time. i'm never giving you another chance of getting my forgiveness. i can't give it to you anymore.

{at this stage it's clear that kim sungsoo is not a professional cheater. he can't even make the cut for amateur cheaters. he's clearly pushing the wrong buttons in a situation where there's a very limited range of wrong answers he can give. how can he not know what's right to say and what's not? clearly he's either stupid or doesn't really care about the relationship. seriously, this guy gets on my nerves.
i can see where inyoung is coming from. ten years of investment is no joke for a woman at 33. i can understand why she's always trying to give him chances to redeem himself and wanting to forgive him. i like that this time she's not backing down and stating her request fair and square.}

for moral support, the trio of besties have a sleepover at hyunjoo's. seoyeon says that the situation isn't that big, it's nothing really~ hyunjoo says the conclusion is kim sungsoo still loves inyoung. seoyeon tells inyoung to marry kim sungsoo, it's now the right time. she and hyunjoo tell inyoung that given the average lifespan of 80~90 years, life is too long to be married just once. basically they're telling her to divorce him when she can't stand him anymore. deoksoo is at the door. seoyeon tells hyunjoo to apologise to him as she was wrong to him. apparently seoyeon saw hyunjoo at the department store buying a watch. hyunjoo has given it to deoksoo along with a card saying: thanks for everything[literal translation: i was thankful; changed it to make more sense in english]. goodbye:

deoksoo: what does this mean? i heard that this watch is really expensive.
hyunjoo: i'm just thankful, like it's written in the card.
deoksoo: what? what are you thankful for? tell me what you're thankful for? because you're thankful you're giving an expensive watch as payment? a breakup present?? hyunjoo, that day, it was your first time right? so this, this expensive watch, is the price? so this! is the going rate[usual price]? is this the going rate??
hyunjoo: if you want to think of it that way, think of -
-slap-
deoksoo: i'm sorry, hyunjoo! it hurt right? are you okay? i [hit] hyunjoo.. look at me for a bit..
hyunjoo: clear the bill this way[settle it this way].
deoksoo: are people's feelings that simple? is it so for you hyunjoo? i slept with you because i really liked you. i thought you were a really lovable woman.
hyunjoo: not for me. i didn't like you at all. i wanted to see men freely and comfortably, so i needed you.
deoksoo: please don't talk that way.
hyunjoo: don't come here again. i'd like it if we never saw each other again.

sunghyun time~~ sunghyun and inyoung are playing tennis. inyoung narrates that seoyeon is right: loving anybody is better than not loving anyone, even if it's a person that doesn't make her heart beat fast . sungsoo and kanghee to practice for a scene in their movie. sunghyun suggest they have a match. inyoung agrees: guests versus employees. sungsoo wants to play as friends against strangers. sunghyun is cool so he accepts his suggestion but kanghee doesn't want to. team employees against team guests, they bet on lunch. both inyoung and sungsoo want to win. sunghyun is letting inyoung down and she's getting anxious about losing. sunghyun pinches her cheeks because she's so cute. a jealous sungsoo whacks a ball to puppy's head who fake faints.
sunghyun steals a kiss from a worried inyoung and hugs her tight, saying 'i really like you soooo much~'

inyoung [narrates]: it was that moment. my heart began to beat fast. love was beginning again[ i'm starting to fall in love again]. again.. love. "
