TM rushes out of the hotel room to see ES. ES says she doesn't have anything else to say to him but TM insists they talk and they talk by the river.
ES advices TM to turn himself in. TM asks ES to go with him since she once said to him she would be on his side.
ES replies at one point she was grateful toward him but now she resents him for hurting the person she loves.
TM says the one who lost all is him and not HW.. and he didnt do what he did out of greed, rather he was returning the wrong done against him.
ES states HW is her miraculous love and leaves. TM vows he will not rest until he returns the wrong done against him.

mr. park tells HW about TM's parents. mr. kang wakes up and asks for HW.
TM tells SG to drag HW infront of him. mr. kang tells HW the fall of se-jin-hwa was the fault of mr. joo and TM mistakely believes the kang family is to blame.
HW tells ES he must look for TM. SG overhears HW telling ES if she ever meets TM she must hold him there for him. SG approaches ES and tells her she's the only one who can stop TM's madness and asks her to go with him.
ES gets in the car with SG and tries to call HW but leaves a message instead. SG drops ES off by a warehouse and tells ES to tell TM he was his one and only friend.

TM is in the car waiting for HW and gets a call from SG saying the person he wanted is here. TM thinks it's HW and speeds up his car to hit HW.
just then ES gets a call from HW and she tells him she will tell him everything later but just as TM is about to collide with ES TM realizes it's ES not HW.
on the other side of the phone line, all HW hears is ES's voice, followed by phone drop sound, and nothing…
next day, JM meets with mr. park an mz. joo and they're all worried about ES. HW looks for ES everywhere too.

next scene…

TM is infront of a hospital. then TM sits by ES on a bench in the hospital basketball court. TM begs ES to tell HW everything and HW will understand.
ES replies she doesn't want to, and even though things are difficult for everyone right now, it's best that everyone forgets the past.

next scene (Oh my gosh)…

a nurse approaches ES with a wheelchair. ES is escorted onto her wheelchair and the nurse wheels ES away. ES wishes TM happiness and leaves.
TM calls out ES's name and cries in remorse.

as she's being wheeled away, ES silently tells HW she knows even if she returns to him as she is right now he will still love her but because of that she cannot return to him because he will be foolish enough to stay by herside.
TM is captured by police and taken to the station. HW arrives at the station and the police tells HW TM wanted to say 'i'm sorry' to HW.

HW goes back to 'dreamy forest' and wonders where in the world ES is.

HW gets a call saying they may have found someone in his description but when he arrives it wasn't ES.
HW sits alone on the beach and tosses a message in a bottle into the ocean. in it he begs ES to return.

ES is riding in the van and sees the ocean…and asks to stop by.
ES arrives just as HW leaves.

on the beach, ES sees a bottle riding the waves and remembers HW saying they won't need such thing because their wish of being with each other has already been granted.
ES wants to take a closer look at the bottle but confined to her wheelchair ES is unable to get up.

HW's dad tells him he should go abroad soon and if ES is his reason for staying he will hire someone to look for her.
HW gets a call and meets SJ, who's just returned from being in new york. the two are friends again and SJ invites HW to attend an art show tomorrow.

the kids ES works with have worked on a painting for the art show as well and they're going to seoul to see it displayed, but ES stays behind alone.
HW attends the art show and sees the children's art titled 'dreamy forest' and becomes breathless.

a man knocks on ES's door and says he was sent by ms. park saying she encountered some trouble getting the kids back so she needs her help.
ES agrees to go but becomes upset when the car approaches 'dreamy forest' instead.
ES is dropped off and HW comes out of the lodge.

ES tells HW not to pity her, and even if he found her nothing will change.
HW says he saw a beautiful picture of a place that taught him love… with the woman he made promise to infront of her father.
ES begins to weep and HW rushes to her side asking her why she was so foolish in thinking he would let her go so easily.
ES calls him a fool for not letting her go when given the chance.
HW says he will never let go of her hand and the two embrace in tears.

drama ends with HW trying to help ES walk with a crutch and ES being held in his arms after leaping a couple of steps.
