Like Flowers in Sand 2023 K Drama Episode 2

Dec 21, 2023

The episode starts with Baek-du interrogating Oh Yu-kyung if she is Du-sik. However, she denies it immediately and says that he has mistaken her for someone else. But he does not change his mind and insists that the girl has to be his childhood friend, Du-sik, who uprooted her entire life from the town without informing him or any other person.

In a flashback, Baek-du’s childhood is shown when he spends most of his time with Du-sik. Her personality was very dominant as a child, and she was always the leader of a group. She was also extremely brave and possessed tomboyish traits. Moreover, she also participated in ssireum and was extremely good at the sport.

Later, Baek-du starts asking around about the whereabouts of the new girl in town. He asks his friend if she resembles Du-sik, but his friend outright denies it. Nevertheless, he remains determined in his prospect to find out her true identity. Kwak Jin-Su suddenly appears and asks Baek-du about his retirement from ssireum. He says that he is no longer interested in the sport and has no desire to participate in it.
