And we at at the final episode! This drama has been an enjoyable ride up a sleepy river so hopefully this final episode is more of the same. I have loved spending time with this group and especially the towns people who are all kinds of delightful. So hopefully things end well!
Caution: Be wary of typos
Shorthand Character Chart: coming up
How we do this: This live recap will be in two parts and we segment each post around every 10 minutes. Sometimes sooner, sometimes later depending on the scene. There will be typos which we have fantasies of fixing once the episode finishes airing. Also, if there is a preview then we will try and translate it. Look for that at the bottom or on a separate post!

Myung-joo tries to write her note. Several papers are crumpled on the table.
VO – I have no excuse for you hating me. But Myung-yeo told me that there are somethings that you never know until you say it. At the age when you were a graduate in college, I gave birth to you.
Hye-won keeps eating.
VO – And at your age now, I was already the mother of a six year old. Back then, your father who I thought was the kindest person in the world, was hitting me.
Cut back to the grandmothers funeral. Myung-joo goes to it from jail.
VO – With my trash life, I did not know how to comfort myself. I was harsh to you.
She does not say anything to Hye-won at the funeral.
VO – I only thought about me, I was only taking care of myself. I never stopped loving you, I just was not good at expressing myself. Myung-yeo is leaving to go far away. So can you come back before that?
Myung-joo goes back to her house and puts a new garage on it. She looks up and sees a plant growing on her wall. She smiles.
VO – The weather is fine now, Hye-won.

TOWN
the towns people happily go about their day. Soo-jung tells a woman that she is going to go see flowers. Halabogi and Sung-ho happily talk in the morning and the grandson heads off to school. He asks he wants to sit next to Ji-eun. The light store guy reads a poem and greets customers to his store in the exuberant way that he normally does. But he scares them off. So he goes back to reading.
Hyun-ji steals some more things from her mother at the pharmacist. her m other yells, what did you take! The parasite medicine! Who are you going to give this too! Hyun-ji runs away. Whi rides her bike to school happily.
The other towns people plant items in a greenhouse. The town mayor puts up a sign that says Welcome Spring on his door.
Meanwhile, Eun-seob rides his bike to his bookstore. He has a red bag with him. He goes inside and clips a thread on a scarf. Then he folds it and puts it in a gift box. It looks like he is wrapping a present for someone.
Then he goes to his mothers place and gives her the gift. She was complaining about Whi but is happy as soon as she sees him. She asks what this is? He says it is for her birthday. She is so happy to have it and tells him that he is the best son. She complains about her daughter and husband.
She opens it and sees the scarf. On the scarf it says “To my lovely mother Yoon Yeo-jung.” She is at a loss of words and is all choked up. He tells her that he bought it. She holds back her emotions and tells him that he can go, she wants to be alone. So he leaves. She starts to cry over the scarf and we see him sewing the scarf in his bookstore.
COFFEE HOUSE
Hye-won goes to Young-woo’s coffee shop. He chats with her privately and tells her that his coffee name is from the song that she played. She says that when he says it, it is like he liked her for a long time. He says that is true, I liked you for a long time. You knew it?
She asys, yes I knew it. He asks how she knew? Then he says that him liking her for a long time is not 100% true. She says, how did I know that? Well, it is just…
She thinks back to Eun-seob riding his bike to her the first night she got to the town.
Young-woo asks if he did something for her to figure it out? She says no, I just know what a person’s eyes look like with someone who has liked me for a long time. She thinks about Eun-seob’s eyes.
CLASS REUNION
the classmates from the town have their usual reunion at the cafe. They all joke and chat. Eun-sil shows up this time and happily greet everyone with a yell. She smiles and sits with them. They ask how she can come her from work?
She tells them that she quit. They all think she is crazy. She asys that when you think it is late, it is already late so you should quit right away. I need to drink.
Thy start to comment on how Jang-woo and Eun-sil look kind of close. Then they joke about how last time Jang-woo said that Eun-sil liked him when you didn’t come. Jang-woo stands up and says that he misses Eun-seob! There is Eun-seo! Eun-seob!
Eun-seon came in right then and sits. They start to talk abotu how Eun-seo and jang-woo became friends. Eun-sil says that Eun-seon rescued Jang-woo. He took that guy who gave Jang-woo a hard time to the mountains and trapped him there. Jang-woo asks when he said that?

I can’t believe that Hae Won & Eun Sob just parted ways without talking to each other after or even having a closure in their relationship and how it should be when Hae Won goes back to Seoul but I know that the director is having a lot of ideas that is why he wrote it to be that way, or the writer rather. Hwi is so funny, i wrote on my past comment that I dont want this to end because I am curious of how Hwi’s relationship would blossom but it seems that it is just a puppy love knowing how fast she moves on when she sees another guy in school. She really amazes me. And i will still miss her.
