Tell Me That You Love Me episode 10: Jin-Woo finally decides to showcase his paintings in a solo exhibition
Tell Me That You Love Me episode 10 begins with a flashback scene from Jin-Woo’s childhood. His friend Ki-Hyun got into a fight with another boy at school as he did not like hearing the boy’s mother asking him not to be Jin-Woo’s friend due to his hearing disability. From that moment, Jin-Woo realized that his loved ones got more hurt than him to protect him from the harsh world. The episode then jumps back to the present day, where Jin-Woo explains to Mo-Eun why he initially kept his distance from her.
He says that the thoughts of Mo-Eun getting hurt because of him made him distance himself from her at the beginning. In response, Mo-Eun tells Jin-Woo that he doesn’t have to protect her. She just wants to be with him since she loves him. Following this, the two embrace each other in an emotional moment.
Meanwhile, Mo-Eun’s childhood friend Jo-Han gets the offer to compose music for the television show in which Mo-Eun had just been cast. After realizing that it’s her debut TV series, Jo-Han quickly agrees to do it. Meanwhile, Jin-Woo’s ex-lover and the director of the art center, Song Seo-Kyung, wait for Jin-Woo to accept her proposal to showcase his artworks in a solo exhibition.
Later that night, Jin-Woo creates another mural painting in a neighborhood. While doing it, he thinks about Mo-Eun’s words. She encourages him to publicly show his work of art, after which he finally decides to participate in a solo exhibition. The next day, he meets with Song Seo-Kyung. He tells her about his decision to do the solo exhibition under her direction, and Song Seo-Kyung is delighted to hear the news.
