[Seoul=RNX News] Reporter Jung Seoyeon = ‘For the First, Love’ Yom Jung-ah, Choi Yoon-ji mother and daughter welcomed the spring days.
In the episode 10 of tvN Monday-Tuesday drama ‘For the First, Love’(directed by Yoo Je-won, written by Sung Woo-jin, planning·production Studio Dragon·Showrunners) aired on the 2nd, the romance of Cheonghae village where love blooms was portrayed.
The pink excitement was doubled from the middle-aged romance of Lee Ji-an (played by Yom Jung-ah), Ryu Jung-seok (played by Park Hae-joon) to the youth romance of Lee Hyo-ri (played by Choi Yoon-ji), Ryu Bo-hyun (played by Kim Min-kyu).
The story of Lee Ji-an and Ryu Jung-seok spread throughout Cheonghae village in an instant through Grandmother Mimi (played by Kang Ae-sim). Amidst playful jokes and teasing, the village residents sincerely congratulated the two.
Ryu Jung-seok was indifferent to the reactions around him. Rather, he said “Let’s go brag about it” and proudly passed by the village residents wearing couple helmets.
When Lee Ji-an felt embarrassed and shy, he said “We’ve waited too long. Let’s live enjoying the good things and happiness of the moment confidently” and fully enjoyed the happiness of a public romance.
Lee Hyo-ri and Ryu Bo-hyun embarked on a secret trip of their own. Adults pretended not to notice their clumsy acting and cute lies, but the two left the house in a pleasant illusion of a perfect plan success.
Lee Ji-an regretted not telling her daughter earlier to live comfortably. Lee Hyo-ri also confessed her happiness felt through Ryu Bo-hyun by saying “Seeing you by my side and mom living her life on her own now, I feel… I want to live. I really want to live well.”
Thus, Lee Ji-an spent a romantic 1 night, 2 days with Ryu Jung-seok, and Lee Hyo-ri with Ryu Bo-hyun. The mother and daughter who met again after a day, chatted through the night.
Recalling the happy times spent with Ryu Jung-seok, Lee Ji-an said with an excited voice like a young girl, “If I knew romance was this good, I would have done it earlier. Is it because I saved it that it feels this good?”
Looking at such a mom, Lee Hyo-ri was unconsciously moved.
Borrowing Ryu Bo-hyun’s words, “A memory touched with a hint of romance remains romantic,” she conveyed her gratitude by saying, “Thanks to your choice, we are continuously building new memories full of romance.”
Above all, Lee Hyo-ri’s words, “Thank you for not giving up on me,” reminded the viewers of the unusually long and cold winter of the mother and daughter, leaving them touched.
However, the spring days of Lee Ji-an and Lee Hyo-ri mother and daughter were fleeting. The day of Lee Hyo-ri’s long-awaited brain tumor surgery was approaching.
First to hear the news was Jung Mun-hee (played by Kim Mi-kyung), and above the complex expressions of Lee Ji-an, Lee Hyo-ri, and Ryu Bo-hyun, was the calm narration of Lee Ji-an saying, “We who endured the cold and lonely winter to reach spring, know well that winter and spring touch each other, and that the regrets of winter still hover around the edges of spring, believing even that to be part of spring, believing in love, it will be ‘Spring, and Again Spring’” which raised curiosity for the remaining 2 episodes.
Meanwhile, in today’s broadcast, Yoon Tae-oh (played by Yang Kyung-won) met his mother and brother, from whom he had cut off contact for a while, thanks to the help of Kim Sun-young (played by Kim Sun-young).
Behind the heartbreaking story of Yoon Tae-oh, who gave up his athletic career due to an unforeseen accident, and thereafter, alcohol addiction led him to give up his family too, was another secret.
The day Yoon Tae-oh, who had been wandering for a long time in the past, last faced his family, his mother had suffered a stroke but had kept it a secret. With his mother worrying about her sensitive son and Yoon Tae-oh who found out the full truth later, the tearful reunion brought tears to the eyes of viewers.
