**Soju - korean alcohol, similar to vodka.)- Officer Kim. It's so nice to see you, sunbae-nim.- Soo Min smiled brightly as he came closer. They hugged each other slightly, then she used hands to point on her partner standing nearby.- This is Jung Hyun Woo, the new detective I told you about, officer Kim.- she introduced him.
- Hello, sunbae-nim.- Hyun Woo said with due respect and even saluted, making officer Kim laugh slightly.- Good good. You don't have to say hello to me with that much respect.- the man said after a moment.- Call me officer Kim, that's all I need.- he added, patting him lightly on the shoulder.- Okay, officer Kim.- Hyun Woo corrected himself immediately, smiling broadly.- I've heard a lot about you. And I'm not just talking about what they said on television.- replied officer Kim.- Soo Min also told me a bit when she called me. AndRelated chapters
Blossom Tears Chapter 27 - New Side Of Her
When the small farewell party for officer Kim was over, Soo Min again offered to take Hyun Woo home, when they left the restaurant and were in the parking lot.- Sunbae, I'm afraid we have to take a taxi or a bus.- Hyun Woo told her. They both drank alcohol, Soo Min even more than he did, so driving the car by themselves was not an option.- But I have a car...- Soo Min said, swaying slightly sideways, waving the keys right in front of his eyes.- I know, but we both drank alcohol. Don't you think it would be bad for a couple of detectives to be caught by traffic police for driving under the influence?- Hyun Woo explained, then grabbed the keys and put them back into her purse.- The couple...- said Soo Min, laughing like a teenage girl.- Do you like me so much, Hyun Woo?- she asked flirtatiously, looking at him.- Do you like this noona?- she added after a moment, pointing at herself.Hyun Woo had to admit that Soo Min looked really cute, quite different tha

(*KakaoTalk - application very popular in South Korea, used to communicate.)On Sunday Soo Min woke up with a huge headache thanks to which she immediately knew that had drunk a few glasses of soju too much yesterday. Soo Min didn't remember much of the evening, especially coming back home, but she hoped that didn't do or say anything stupid. While being in the living room, with a glass of water, sipping a bit to make swallowing of a pill for a headache easier, she received a text message. Soo Min put the glass down on the low table standing by the couch and in exchange lifted her phone from the counter and unlocked the screen, checking the content and who the message was from. It turned out that Hyun Woo wrote to her on KakaoTalk*."Sunbae. Yesterday you drank a little too much, I was a bit drunk too, so we got home by bus, since I haven't got enough money for taxi, and I didn't want to get through your purse. Then I escorted you to the door an

Min Hye Sun from Cyber Security Division, Digital Forensic Section, came a little later, also bringing printouts of messages found on the Ye Eun's phone and email inbox. In addition, she informed that was unable to see on camera recordings nothing more than what was already known before, that is, the car is gray, with tinted windows. The only novelty was that, according to her, the car brand is probably KIA Joice, manufactured between 2000 and 2001, and therefore quite an old car.- My dad has been driving this car for over 10 years, which is why I remember very well how it looks like.- Hye Sun explained, leaning a bit on the Hyun Woo's desk.- Of course, the one that can be seen on the recordings looks like it was slightly modified, especially because of those tinted windows and the lack of a roof rack.- she continued, showing them the best photo of the car that she managed to take from the recordings, comparing it with the clear photo of the KIA Joice model.- Also, this shade

(**Dongsaeng - literally a younger brother or sister; used also towards younger friends.)When the afternoon passed, Soo Min went to the social room to make coffee. From browsing, reading, comparing and searching for clues, her eyes ached and she felt dizzy. When she put instant coffee into the paper cup and turned on the electric kettle, Joo Chan entered the room. Seeing Soo Min, he was about to step back.- Don't be silly, come in.- Soo Min said to him.- I won't eat you, I promise.- she added with a slight amusement.- You know... After what Hyun Woo and officer Kim said... I thought a lot about how me and others treated you so far.- Joo Chan said a little shy, which really did not suit him at all. That's why Soo Min gave him a surprised and slightly suspicious look.- Are you serious?- she asked incredulously at what she heard.- I speak as seriously as never in my life.- Joo Chan assured, leaning lightly on the counter.- Liste

Soo Min returned to the office, immediately sitting at her desk.- Are you sure you don't want some coffee?- she asked to Hyun Woo, who was doing something with extreme concentration on the computer.- No thanks, sunbae.- confirmed Hyun Woo.- I just sent a question to technicians to find and make a list of people who bought KIA Joice car recently or had one.- he explained, finally looking at her.- It will take a while to find everyone, but at the end, these cars are no longer produced, so it will make the task a bit easier.- he added with a smile.- That's great.- stated Soo Min.- I am increasingly impressed, Hyun Woo. Especially when it comes to your commitment and independence in action. It's great that I don't have to point you everything with a finger.- she admitted with a smile.- Well, it was thanks to this independence in action that I solved that case in Gwangju. I wasn't even really assigned to it, I was only helping detectives with their activities.- ex

( *Sajang - president or CEO of the company. )The next morning Soo Min and Hyun Woo once again went out of the police station. The first stop was a modeling agency where they wanted to meet and talk with Seo In Sung. They had called in advance and the receptionist assured them that the boss would be present for sure.- What do we know about him? ”Soo Min asked, her eyes focused on the road.- So, he is an owner of a modeling agency, working with the Choi family fashion house.- Hyun Woo started talking.- Perfectionist, sometimes to exaggeration, loves beauty and art. That is why his unstable emotional behavior is most often explained by the fact that he has the soul of an artist and wants every photo-shoot or fashion show to be a piece of art. People say that at first glance, you can see from his character that he is not behaving normally.- he continued.- In Sung usually cares about his models very much, but if they fail him in any wa

Then they both headed for the elevator and, exactly as the girl mentioned, got out on the top floor and turned into the corridor on the right. At the end of it, you could really see double glass doors flaring open, so Soo Min and Hyun Woo entered the office with no problem, introducing themselves once more and showing their badges to the secretary. She was a short, middle-aged woman dressed in an elegant suit, and her shapely figure was closer to Soo Min, which pleased her a bit. She thought only very skinny girls would be working here, so it was a pleasant surprise. Although, on the other hand, having such a secretary did not really suit the owner of a modeling agency, but this woman was undoubtedly beautiful, and Seo In Sung liked to surround himself not only with beautiful things, but also with people, so maybe her figure did not bother him at all? Or could it be that after spending days with skinny models, Seo In Sung wanted to look at a woman's curves at least in his office? An

( **Uisa - literally means the doctor, can be used towards any kind of doctors. )When Soo Min and Hyun Woo left the building of Seo In Sung's modeling agency, they headed straight for the parking lot.- I think it's him after all.- Hyun Woo finally spoke up.- Why? - Soo Min asked- As a detective, you should always be able to explain your suspicions .- she added in an instructive tone.- Seo In Sung might have had the right to write such messages to Ye Eun, but his behavior was quite... suspicious. He was nervous, and a bit unstable. At one point I had the feeling that he was about to attack us.- Hyun Woo explained as they stood by the car.- So far, out of all the people we've spoken to, Seo In Sung really does look like a psychopath.- he added, opening the passenger door.- Maybe you are right.- Soo Min admitted as she got into the car from the driver's side.- But if you want to be a good detective, you have to remember that not

Blossom Tears Chapter 80 - Epilogue: Part 4
On that day, exactly one month after they took up the "Cherry Blossom Reaper" case, Soo Min and Hyun Woo were just coming out of court after the final trial. Lee Joo Young was found guilty of course, but not entirely aware of his actions. Unfortunately, the final opinion of the forensic doctors clearly indicated his at least partial insanity, so instead of prison, he was locked up in a psychiatric hospital, but in a closed ward, and under the clear custody of the police. The court gave doctors a chance to undergo treatment, at the end of which Lee Joo Young will be examined again to see if the treatment will have any effect on him. If not, and Lee Joo Young continues to unrepent, he will be imprisoned with a life sentence.- A little bittersweet sentence, isn't it?- Hyun Woo asked as they descended the stairs and headed towards the parking lot.- Yes, very much.- Soo Min admitted, sighing heavily.- But that was the opinion of doctors. I don't really believe in Lee Joo Youn
Blossom Tears Chapter 79 - Epilogue: Part 3
At the beginning of the next week, a lot happened. Firstly, the court hearings of "Cherry Blossom Reaper" began, and with them a huge stir among the public. Although CEO Choi seemed to be completely cut off from his recent son and heir, the attorney firm representing the fashion house and the Choi family decided to represent Joo Young in court, specifically Jang Chang Woo himself as his lawyer. However, he did not try to prove his client's innocence, but to alleviate the punishment as much as possible, based on the preliminary opinion of the forensic psychologist that Lee Joo Young was not completely aware of what he was doing.At the same time, Kim Dong Min, the same one who stayed with Lee Joo Young in a foster family after the Gwangju orphanage burned down, came to the Seoul police station and turned himself in. He confessed of being guilty of helping the "Cherry Blossom Reaper", because Dong Min was a hacker with the nickname 'Void' and all the technical stuff - getting pla

Joo Young hated that thought, therefore, he did not want to see absolutely anyone. But that changed when Joo Young heard that Kim Dong Min wanted to visit him. He even asked for this himself so this man could be let in. His little Dong Min, whom he always wanted to protect from all evil. He knew seeing him would definitely make it all more bearable, however, he was afraid that this visit would make someone suspect that Dong Min had something to do with Joo Young's 'mission', so he had to ensure today that it was Dong Min's first and last visit. No matter how badly he wanted to see him again... Joo Young had to protect Dong Min, he was his hyung after all. Joo Young had decided so from day one, when he had defended his dongsaeng from one of those obnoxious guardians in that damn orphanage, and for that had been given a hard spanking himself in his place. Now it should end exactly the same way - Joo Young had to take the punishment for the two of them.- Dong Min-ah... - he spoke
Blossom Tears Chapter 77 - Epilogue: Part 1
While being in pre-trial detention, Joo Young had no desire to see anyone, especially Choi Young Sik and his wife, Madam Lee. So he was glad when they stopped trying to get a permission to visit him. He hated these people even though they made his life so good, or at least that's what all the people around him told him. While playing the role of Choi Hyun Sik, Joo Young had heard that he was extremely lucky to be born into such a family. But what these people did not know was that Joo Young was not born into this family at all. The burden of the secret that Choi Young Sik and his wife had thrown on him was a bit unbearable at times. The only thing Joo Young was really grateful for was that he met Ye Eun after entering this family's house. Normally, as an ordinary child, he would never had a chance to meet her. However, it was a bittersweet feeling as he was supposed to be Ye Eun's older brother, so could never show her his true feelings, which probably started to sprout slowly in hi
Blossom Tears Chapter 76 - Dark Secrets
- Joo Young calmed down, but Ye Eun began to have nightmares and was afraid to approach her brother. She wanted to tell father about it.- Madam Lee replied after taking another sip of coffee.- I told her that she can't tell anyone about it, because it's just such a disease and her brother has already recovered from it. Ye Eun was such an innocent and extremely naive child, believed in everything I told her, so she believed in this too. Ye Eun stayed away from her brother for a while, but after a year she seemed to have completely forgotten about it and normally accosted him, encouraging to play with other children. As they both grew up, she even caught a great contact with him, he spoke to her more willingly than to anyone else. I was very happy about it and I forgot what Joo Young used to do. I was so proud of him, of his academic performance, and then the results of his work. He made such wonderful creations that I was very happy to give him the place of main designer in our fashi
Blossom Tears Chapter 75 - Case Closed
When CEO Choi found out that his son had confessed to everything, he seemed completely devastated. It was evident that he truly believed in his innocence to the end. Madam Lee, on the other hand, seemed much less shocked and Soo Min did not understand it at first, because she thought this woman was the one who would be more devastated by the news.Soo Min went to their house on her own, without the Chief Kim's knowledge, to just tell them about their son, that a court hearing was about to take place and to find out if they would want to attend, because however little they knew about what Hyun Sik was doing, their testimony might help a bit. Besides, Soo Min also felt that although he was not their real son, they had raised him over the years and treated as their own child. No matter what their reasons were at the beginning, they surely loved him at least a little. The more she wanted to tell them what was happening with Hyun Sik, or rather Joo Young, because he himself did not

- I don't want to believe that you could have done it all yourself. I think someone helped you, at least with some of these things.- added Soo Min, looking at him closely.- Apparently I'm not just a genius at fashion design.- Joo Young replied, his face turning serious.- You think I couldn't do it all? Why? Do you doubt my intelligence?- he asked kind of reproachfully.- I'm saying I did everything myself. I know it may be hard to believe, but I learn really fast, much faster than others. If you ask at the schools I attended, they will confirm my words. I have always had the best academic record and heard many times people calling me a genius. But to me it was natural and I never understood what all these delights were for.- he explained.- Well, if you say so, I will not pursue this topic anymore.- Soo Min surrendered, seeing that even if her suspicions were right, and he was lying, she would not be able to get any information about a possible helper out of him.- We alrea
Blossom Tears Chapter 73 - Final Confession: Part 2
- What about the KIA car that belonged to your father? How did you get it?- Soo Min asked, curious about this part of the story.- As for this car, when I took it from the junkyard, I didn't necessarily think about the plan.- Joo Young confessed.- I just liked this car and I didn't want it to be destroyed. When I was a child, I asked if my father would give me this car when I get older, but he said no, he would like to buy me a car more worthy of an heir to a huge fortune. Then CEO Choi added that I should not think about such old junk.- and as he said it, one could see the disappointment on his face.- It seems funny now, but as a child, I felt very hurt. So later, when I found out that my father had instructed Secretary Lee to take the car to the junkyard and see it destroyed, I had to do something. Since I knew how much Secretary Lee wanted to be friends with me, I called him and asked to run an errand that I was supposed to handle myself. Later I called the junkyard and aske
Blossom Tears Chapter 72 - Final Confession: Part 1
Soo Min entered the interrogation room and sat down at the table in front of a man who until recently was called Choi Hyun Sik.- Lee Joo Young-ssi...- Soo Min called him by his real name, though she had a hard time getting used to the fact that this was his name.- At the last interrogation you told us about your childhood again, but now I'd like to hear the full story of how you carried out your mission.- she said, quite cautiously to encourage him to speak. Soo Min could see clearly that he was angry with her for approaching him like that while they were talking in the basement of his house. He felt clearly deceived and spoke to her very reluctantly, but she still wanted to get the whole truth out of him. Joo Chan offered to help, assuring Joo Young would sing everything nicely after one interrogation with him, but Soo Min preferred to personally interrogate the "Cherry Blossom Reaper".- I already told you everything, Soo Min. Don't you remember?- he spoke to her comple
