America
Episode 1x17, In Translation - Flashback Scene 5Jin gets out of his car and walks along a pier to a small fishing boat. The man in the boat looks surprised to see him. "Father, please forgive me. I was ashamed of you."
His father hugs him and asks what Sun is like. "She is beautiful, intelligent, hardheaded. We don't talk anymore." He asks why and Jin explains, "Because I can't tell her about her father. In a good world, she would hate him, not me."
"It is a good world," Jin's father says. Jin says that his father doesn't know what he's done, but his father says it doesn't matter and he should start over.
He explains that he has responsibilities. He has to take watches to Mr. Paik's associates in Sydney and America. His father suggests that once they get to America, he and Sun stay there.
