"Did you tour Madrid at all?" her mother asks over dinner.
Hee Do had rehearsed this answer. "I don't think about touring when I go abroad for a competition,” she tells her mother, just like she’d practiced. “I just want to sleep once it's over."
Which, to be fair, isn't not true.
Set during the 2001 Madrid Olympic Games.

“Oppa… How did you do it?”
“I just… did. You just do it, because you have to, because there isn't any other option. You do what you have to do. You know that.”
Yu Rim does. She knows that very well.
Set between Episodes 14 and 15, starting from March 2000. Precedes and spans the events in can you read my mind.

“Go Yu Rim!”
Yu Rim barely has the time to turn her way before Hee Do is barreling straight into her and tackling her into a hug.

Russia's 2000 female sabre team. In order: Assistant Coach Stanislav, Yelena, Julia, Coach Yushkov, Lashyn, and Darya. :)
- Commission made by jiyaneru:
She takes Yu Rim’s face in her hands as soon as she’s within distance and kisses her, finally.
Yu Rim inhales sharply but presses her lips back against Hee Do’s at once, clutching at her wrist almost as an afterthought.
