“Well, I don't really know the house. ”
Jang Eun-hee is embarrassed by my words and covers her mouth. After all these years together, you don't know where you live? I mysteriously twitched my eyebrows.
“If you have something special, Mr. Minsik will come to my house. We usually talk on the phone. Oh, I left an address for you to come by if you need anything, but I'm getting a little too old to be in someone else's house. And it's an old address. ”
Ah, I see. Much more conservative times than today. Even a friend I used to know is an uncomfortable person in the backyard, and he's the only one I've known since he died, so I can't go home without fault. I nodded and pulled out the notebook.
“Write his phone number here. Think in detail about how much you've given, when and how. Are you banking?”
She stopped writing her number. He answers with a slightly embarrassed or crawling voice.
“From the bank? I can't because it's hard. If you just have money, take it out and use it. ”
She seemed to be gradually aware of the seriousness of the situation in my words. You wiggle your fingers, then stand up and face the room.
“Let me show you my will. But you'll see. This is really my husband's handwriting. Wait a minute."
That man, Park Min-sik. Clear hair and deep wrinkles. She believed while her youth was turning into time. Besides, the will is the only sign my husband left me. I'd rather it be true.
“Yes. Hello? This is Jang Ji-hoon. I'll call you a number, check it out. 0112398 · ·. His name is Park Min-sik. ”
I called the police station and asked for a background check on him. I wonder what I look like. A high-functioning policeman, applauding as if he knew.
“Hey, it's him, it's him. I didn't know that. ”
“Do you know who I am? ”
“I know. I'm always cheering for you. Wow. I heard he's handsome somehow, but I can tell. Haha.You 're doing a good job. ”
It shines like a celebrity. Chairman Kim smiles proudly next to him. I glanced only at the embarrassed side. The timing is good, Eun-hee Jang.
“Is something wrong? ”
“No, Silk Mother. He's not sure. ”
“No, it's no big deal. Is that a will?”
I turned around and handed the item over to her. A piece of yellow paper wrapped in fine cloth. It spread, it blurred, but I could read the letters.
“You don't talk about your mother? ”
I heard it's a will, so I can't stop talking about my family. I can still feel the love for my family from inside the camera.
“There was one more, and it was missing. Perhaps there was something that Silk Road and I were talking about. ”
Jiaying
When the phone rang, I handed over my reading to Director Kim. Director Kim reads it while rolling his eyes. My face gradually distorted. It's something he doesn't want to see. I got a call standing up from my seat.
“Oh, the address. ”
Then he tapped Kim on the shoulder. Signal the car to standby. Director Kim folds his will and runs out of the gate of Huddak. She looks at me puzzledly. I glanced back, smiling and standing up.
“Ma'am, let's go. He's my husband's best friend. He needs to know how to live. ”
* * *
We stopped by Lee Myeong-ju's house on the way to accompany him. I don't have much questions about me and Director Kim, if I've heard from him approximately. Oh, I was just asking about the premium.
“Hmmm.”
Director Kim, who holds the wheel, looks at the two mothers with a rear-view mirror. After a fight, the atmosphere in the car is cold.
“I think we're close. ”
“Let's park there. ”
I got out of the car and swept through the walls of my house. At first glance, it was a house that looked much better than Jang Eun-hee, who was selling junk to make a living. Different from the gate.
“Is this the Colonial's house? ”
Lee Myeong-ju folds her arms and gazes at her mother. The guy who borrowed money from his house when he was a kid. It seems different from what I had in mind. And that's the same with Jang Eun-hee.
“Sell this house and we'll pay off our debts. ”
“Don't call it debt. We should help each other. ”
“Mom! What can I do to help? Worry about us first. Look at us. How long are you going to live with the hard work? How long is it going to take for a civilian to borrow some money and dust it off? ”
“I hear my baby. Stop being so harsh. ”
Myeongju was pregnant. It doesn't look like much yet. She stares at her mom as if she's desperate for work. Chairman Kim cheers for Lee Myung Joo next door.
“Bell? ”
“Oh, I'll do it. Young Master.”
“And please just watch over Silkju and her mother. because we have a way of looking at it, a way of looking at it. ”
“What's that supposed to mean? ”
“You'll see. Chief Kim.”
“Neneb. Got it. ”
I'm afraid of what I'm saying, and I'm standing in front of an intercom. He presses the bell and waits for an answer to be heard inside. But the music only sounds empty. Director Kim looked back at me for a moment.
Chop chop.
“Oh, my God. How did you get here? ”
The gate opened and a man showed his face. Clear white hair and deep wrinkles. And neat knits. I even felt relaxed in the salutation.
“Silk Road, you're here. It's been a long time."
Silky pearls that keep their mouths shut. The man looks back at us and looks at us and says, "Who?" I took Lee Chang-dong's will out of my pocket.
“I just wanted to talk to you. Is this a good time?"
“Time is good, but who cares? · · · · ”
Silk silk leaps forward without restraint. And Chief Kim shows his business card by stopping her.
“Did you see the advertisement this time in Highlight? ”
“Ah. That's it. Looking for Eun-hee and Silk Road. I was going to tell you about the television. And why is that? ”
Park Min-sik looked around us cautiously. Director Kim and I looked at each other.
“I was really moved by the story. The longstanding friendship with adult god Lee Chang-dong and the love that continues after that. That's the story we've been looking for. I'm going to hold another event in Highlight this time. ”
Lee Myung Joo and Jang Eun Hee's eyes widened in a sudden reply. Those who want to protest. I carefully tug at the collar from behind.
“Well, can I hear you? ”
“Oh, is that so? Of course, come in. Eun-hee and Silk Joo must be the first time in our house. Haha. I should have invited you. But I don't know how he got the address. ”
Chief Kim smiles politely. Park Min-sik stepped aside, smiling brightly. It means come inside. We went through a small but well-decorated garden and into the house.
“Oh, look who it is. ”
“Hello."
“I had something to call you about. How did he find you? ”
The woman who was doing the dishes in the kitchen was surprised and approached the front door. Park Min-sik whispers something to his wife. The two couples who offer their seats with an awkward smile.
“The other day, you left me an address to call if there was anything else. ”
“Who? Me? ”
“Honey, did you? ”
“Aha · · · ·. Maybe I did, maybe I didn't. I don't remember much. ”
Park Minsik scratches his head and tilts his head. A dying comrade's will to live like a family. Of course, information needs to be exchanged to look out for each other. Director Kim introduced himself by giving his wife a business card.
“So, tell me more about what happened back then. I think we'll take that as an advertising story and make a video. And, of course, some gifts. ”
“Gifts? What kind? ”
“It's okay in any way you want. ”
Chairman Kim said, "What kind of cake is this?" Then he sits on the floor, crossing his arms, and grabbing memories of his past.
“Ahem. So, what can I tell you? ”
“Tell me about your time with Lee Chang-dong during the Vietnam War. It's all I can remember because it's nothing. How they got to know each other, and how the will got to her. ”
“Ah. That's it. Well, I was in the White Horse Legion, and Lee Chang-dong at the time · · · · ”
He was excited and brought back memories of the day. From the story of chewing the roots in the wooded forest, I had an awkward conversation with the civilians in English. Lee Chang-dong has never seen a daughter, and he missed painting the face of Silk silk.
“So I woke up one night with a strange sound. But I keep calling Eun-hee's name to see if he's dreaming while he's sleeping. Hey, I was thinking about dying of this sickness. ”
He continued to talk about the military and asked, interfering with Kim who was listening quietly.
“Did you see the will yourself? ”
“Well, it's not officially a will. I don't know when I'm gonna die, so I'm just gonna write it down when I get a chance. Changdong was dead, so I found it and delivered it to Eun-hee. ”
“Oh, I see. ”
“I should have seen Eun-hee softer, like Chang-dong asked. I'm sorry. I get a lot of help. ”
“No, it's not.”
Park Min-sik who opens his own door. I asked again, not missing the gap.
“You helped each other. ”
“It's hard for me to live here now, in many ways. Seeing as you have two kids. Haha.”
Jang Eun-hee raised her children by herself, but this is bullshit. Lee Myeong-ju, who was listening quietly, frowned and shot.
“Well said. I want my mom's money back now. I can't have you picking up junk forever. ”
“Oh. Of course. I have to give it back. I remember how much I got · · · ·. I've been getting it around so badly. ”
Park Min-sik asked me to take care of Lee Myeong-ju, looking at me and Chairman Kim.
“And in fact, lending it to me · · ·. Haha.”
It's ambiguous, like family, just giving and receiving when you need it. Park Min-sik and his wife took a bite off their tea cups.
“Let's talk about the details, please. I'll be right back. Let's go into detail then. ”
Jang Eun-hee seems to think it will be easy to pass up if she meets him separately. I know that if Lee Myeong-ju and an outsider were mixed together, he would disadvantage himself. I look at Lee Myeong-ju and Chief Kim. The look of asking me to do something. However, Chairman Kim and I stood up without saying anything.
“Very well. We'll talk more about it next time, then. Goodbye. Sorry to barge in on you like this. And one more thing. ”
“Yes, go ahead. ”
“That will was actually written by Lee Chang-dong, right? You were terribly close to him. ”
“I told you. Haha. ”
Park Min-suk, who doesn't deny it to the end. I left their house with Lee Myeong-ju. Lee Myeong-ju comes out and spreads my hands roughly.
“What is it? What the hell? ”
“I know what you're going to do behind my back if you hit me in the face. Chief Kim.”
I pulled the recorder out of my pocket.
“Investigate the will and the note. Gather all the people from the same unit. Let's see if he's lying. ”
EP208. Lie or no lie.
