[Episode 15]

Yeonghui, stay here a minute.

I need to go somewhere for a minute.

No. Take me with you.

Take this. Have a look at it and wait for me.

I want to go with you.

I'll be right back. Wait here. You're a good girl, right?

Come back soon.

Don't go anywhere until I come back.

Okay. But you have to come back soon.

Sis…

Sis… Sis…

Sis…

Sis…

Did you lose your mom? We'll find her for you.

- Come here. - Sis...

Sis...

Now I can be happy, since you're gone.

Please…

Don't come back, Yeonghui.

Doyoung.

Aren't you watching the play? Why are you out here?

Go in.

Are you feeling sick?

I said to go in.

You're sick. You're sweating.

Let's go to the hospital.

I'm alright. Get back in there.

Are you feeling unwell?

Yeah.

I felt a bit nauseous, so I came out.

Is it really bad?

I'm feeling better. I'll be right there. Go in.

You, too.

I'm fine, honey.

Let's go together. I'll wait.

I'll be right there.

She's even better than Korea's best singer, Jeong Nana!

She's our establishment's most popular star!

She's the pride of the Boogie Woogie Club!

Here's Jeong Dada!

Yeah!

Good evening.

Thanks so much for coming to the Boogie Woogie Club.

I'm Jeong Dada, and your love is what keeps me alive!

Hey, is it that boring?

No, I just felt kind of sick all of a sudden.

Do you want to see it next time then?

Don't worry about it. It's fine.

How did she write this?

I begged and pleaded with her. I wanted to forgive you.

But you turned your back on me again.

Now, I'm going to destroy your life.

You're Jeong Nana, our country's most famous singer.

I'm Jeong Dada, who just happens to make my living impersonating you.

Between the two of us, who's got more to lose?

Mom…

Have you been drinking?

No, I just love you.

Mom.

Why have you lost so much weight?

You're just skin and bones.

There's no fat on you.

You've been drinking. You're in big trouble.

Don't cry. Don't cry.

Did something happen to you?

Mom, let's go somewhere during your vacation.

I want to travel with you.

Why are you bringing that up all of a sudden?

Mom, let's go get our hair done tomorrow.

Just the two of us together.

You're too old to be getting tipsy like this.

Go and wash up, okay?

Man, Saweol, you're a great actress.

You're going to be a star. It was really fun.

Thank you.

Wasn't the ending too brutal, though?

I don't like revenge.

Revenge is enjoyable.

If you hit it big, be sure and come on our show.

Give us an exclusive.

Sure.

Thanks for coming. I'll buy lunch tomorrow.

See you again, Saweol.

Okay.

Let's go.

Goodbye and thank you.

Junse.

Saweol, I enjoyed the play.

You didn't come to the dressing room. I thought you'd left.

You're a good actress.

You saw me do Christmas plays a long time ago.

I remember.

You were Rudolph and you kept annoying Santa.

That's right.

You're a lot better than you were then.

I saw you sitting next to Doyoung from the stage.

She left because she wasn't feeling well.

Oh.

Why did you audition for this play?

Because I wanted to do it.

How did Eunbi come up with the idea?

Not sure...

Want to go home? Want a ride?

I've got to do it again this evening.

Okay, good acting.

See you next time.

Hey! How were the plays?

The afternoon one and the evening one both went well.

I'll be sure and watch it tomorrow.

I'm not going to be there tomorrow.

So, two girls are playing your part?

When are you doing it again?

Come this weekend.

Okay.

Change and come out. Let's celebrate.

Dongwu, did you come today?

To the play? I enjoyed it.

There were a lot of people talking to you, so I figured I'd see you at home.

You're a good actress. I was surprised.

Hearing your compliments makes me feel even better.

Let's have a drink, okay?

I'm going to change.

Saweol.

Yeah?

How did you end up getting that part?

I've always wanted to be in plays.

If you're good enough to get that part, you could get another one, right?

You could probably get a part in another play.

Why don't you audition for another one?

But I really like this play.

I know how you feel, but I just don't think this one's right.

Where did I put that t-shirt?

Do you really think you'll come out of this unhurt?

How much more hurt can I get?

I'm going to keep going and if we both end up getting hurt, that's fine.

Let's give her some time.

Time for her to come to you and ask for your forgiveness.

Don't just push it like this.

Dongwu, the play got a great reaction.

I'm really going to work hard at this.

I'm really going to try to make this play a success.

Alright. Well, good work today.

[You are cordially invited to a play. From, a secret fan.]

[Two Sisters]

The script is here.

Thanks, I was waiting for it.

Where is everyone? Are they getting the set ready?

Of course.

Are a lot of people going to the play?

Well, how many people can you fit in a small theater?

But thanks to word-of-mouth, a lot of people are reserving tickets.

The press is already clamoring to interview the older sister.

Why'd you write that story?

I've always wanted to write about two cruel and lonely men.

Or two lonely women for that matter.

But how'd you come up with the idea?

Actually, Saweol gave me the crux of it.

An adopted daughter abandons the family's biological daughter.

She must have heard about it when she was at Michael's House.

So the older one becomes great and the younger one has a sad life?

The tribute singer becomes more and more famous.

A TV station invites her on a show and the sisters meet after 20 years.

At first, they don't recognize each other,

but then the older sister suspects that she's the sister she threw away…

Wait, what am I doing? Watch for yourself.

What happens to the older sister?

You've got to watch it yourself.

You were sick when you left early the other day, right?

Did Saweol give you the ending, too?

What happens to the older sister?

She dies.

She loses everything and dies alone. Her parents turn their backs on her.

But come and watch it. It's fun.

It's a gift.

One of them is for you.

Sis, you don't have to…

Use the other one to reserve tickets to a play.

A play?

I'd like to reserve tickets for Wednesday at 4 p.m. and Thursday at 7:30.

It's 40% off if I reserve all the tickets, right?

Yes.

Then Saturday at 4 p.m. as well.

Sure.

[Yun Saweol as Jeong Dada]

Come and see the "Two Sisters." It's really fun.

It's at 4 p.m.

Come and watch it. It's really fun.

We'll give you a discount.

Come and watch.

- Thank you. - Have a good time.

Pretty ladies get in half-off.

What kind of psycho does this?

They reserve the whole theater and no one shows up.

It wasn't even online . They came to the ticket booth.

Man, if they do this one more time...

We need to get rid of group discounts.

I can't believe this.

Mom, this is so pretty.

You should decorate your newlywed home like that.

Mom, should I buy you this outfit?

Why is it so bold and revealing?

You can probably see your whole behind in it.

Mom, let's take a picture.

This is going to be funny.

One, two, three.

There's a place I've always wanted take you, mom.

My daughter's so pretty.

I've always envied my friends who shopped for wedding dresses with their moms.

You should have told me sooner then.

Gorgeous.

Turn to the side a little.

I tried on a few with mom.

Busy, aren't you? She made me help her try them on.

I'm glad you did, Mrs. Shin.

Well, aren't I pretty?

Yes, really beautiful.

Doyoung's dad is coming today, so we should have dinner soon.

We should.

I'll bring a bottle of your favorite wine.

Oh, do you two want to go to this?

Someone taped these play tickets to my door.

I'll find a time to go with Junse.

Did you wait long?

Give it here.

Nice.

Why's it so hard to see you lately?

I'm kind of busy until next week.

Saweol's really busy these days because of her play.

Come and see it.

What a great job you've got. It lets you do things like this.

I'm just letting her do it until next week.

If she does it any longer, I'll fire her.

That looks great on you. Wear it when you come to my play.

Should I have cut it shorter?

No, it's good that you only trimmed it.

Yours came out nicely.

Should we grab a bite to eat somewhere?

Sure.

What do you want?

Dumplings.

Let's go to that dumpling place you like.

Okay, let's have dumplings.

Parents' Day.

They told us to write letters to our parents, but I couldn't.

Mom and dad, where are you?

Mom and dad, did you throw me away?

I wrote a few lines. I was so sad. I was crying alone...

When I suddenly thought of my older sister.

Where'd she go, after she told me to wait?

Sis…

Honey, I'm home.

How's everything?

Fine, of course. You look so thin.

Don't even start. It was really tough.

I drank every night.

Have a shower and rest, dad.

Okay. Here's a gift for you.

Thank you.

Dad, we're going to take a family photo this weekend.

Yeah? I better try and lose more weight then.

Oh, someone came for you while you were gone.

Who?

He was really tall.

I think he showed me some pictures. Or maybe not.

Maybe it was a student at school.

My memory's been failing me recently.

No one came to the house, mom.

Okay, miss. Get a little closer to your mom.

Yes, very nice.

If it comes out well, I'll have to put one in Junse's office.

Should we have taken one with him?

Why would we when they haven't even gotten married yet?

We should take one with just us, right?

Yes, mom, you're right.

Let's take the first one. Bright smiles.

That's it.

Brighter. Very nice.

Saweol.

Long time, no see.

Hi, Mr. Shin. How was your business trip?

How'd you know I went on a business trip?

I came to bring this to you, but you weren't here.

Come and see my play. Here are some are tickets.

Wow, I'm getting presents. Thank you.

I'm one of the actresses. Be sure and come.

Bye, Junse.

Is she an actress as well?

Yes.

I should take Doyoung's mom to this.

Have you looked into Kim Myeonghan?

We're looking, sir.

I have to meet him before I die. Listen to me.

Yes, sir.

He's probably very old by now.

Be sure and find him, even if it means going to the ends of the earth.

Don't worry.

Sir.

Are you some kind of monster?

I don't think I have any horns.

Why didn't you tell me you were acting in the play.

I wanted to pass the audition without any help.

Did you think I was going to help you?

Weren't you?

Good work. I'm glad you did it on your own.

I like it when you show off.

Why do you think I'd go through the trouble of showing off?

Anyone who shows off is actually really pitiful.

Look at you, just tooting your own horn.

Thank you for granting me my wish, sir.

Thanks for letting me put this play on.

I'm buying tonight.

Buying what? How rude?

Sir, I wanted to buy something good. Why are you eating that?

Get some sweet and sour pork, please.

This is more than enough.

I can buy you the super size then.

The days when I used to eat this and work were my happiest.

I just want to go back to that time.

Enjoy it. And gain your strength.

Add some more vinegar.

How's your mother?

I'm sure she'll get better.

I've started to look for someone. The one I told you about.

That's great, sir.

If I don't find him,

or if find him and he doesn't forgive me, I'm turning myself in.

The statute of limitations is over, but I'm still turning myself in.

If I don't deal with this now, I'll never escape it.

I don't want that.

I won't be able to see my children.

Why are you tearing up?

It's not good to cry and eat.

You're a pretty good actor.

Thank you.

Is the play about you?

No.

It's not like you're a writer.

If you were, I'd probably have suspected you.

Thank you for sponsoring the play.

It was really worth seeing.

I hear a lot of audience members cry when you cry.

One of my employees went to see it. When you were on stage,

she cried.

She said she felt bad because there were only 5 people in the audience.

She said that the play is good but the PR, not so much.

And that blame falls on us.

So she suggested that we have all of our employees

go and see the play.

And I said to go for it.

I'm going to start then.

Smile. One, two, three.

Smile. One, two, three.

Congratulations. I hear it's constantly selling out.

I'm so happy.

I've learned the power of word-of-mouth marketing.

You're the writer for the "Wonder Woman Show," right.

You must be so busy. I'm curious about how you came up with this.

I actually started out my career after writing a tragedy.

I've always been ambitious about the stage.

How'd you come up with the idea?

From Yun Saweol, who plays the younger sister.

How did she…

She grew up in an orphanage, and

she told me something she heard there.

And, of course,

she told me it was okay for me to tell you this in the interview.

Teen idols of the '90s. Let's go with this.

Agreed.

It's a great idea.

015B, Noise, Jam, Deuce, Two-Two.

A lot of people miss those groups.

It'll be hard to get them, but it'd be worth it.

They were at the height of popularity in their 20s,

but now they're in their 30s.

Don't you think they feel ousted by the up-and-coming stars?

We can have them talk about their lives.

I'll try and get Jam.

Okay.

So the main topic is stars from the '90s,

and for the sub-topic,

how about we do some PR for Eunbi's play?

Of course we should. It's super popular right now.

I'd like to as well, but we need to keep business separate.

If the play wasn't that great, I wouldn't do it either.

But I think it's really gaining momentum.

But why would we do that play, when there are so many hit musicals?

If people find out, they'll say we're giving our writer special treatment.

Did you have a fight with Eunbi?

Of course not.

I'm just keeping things professional in the workplace.

If we put an unknown play on the Wonder Woman Show,

we'd be put on the spot.

Let's just go with the young scientists at KAIST.

Oh, alright then.

Let's go with the idea from last time as our sub-topic.

Good work.

Hasn't he been keeping in touch with Miseon these days?

Hey, why are you snooping through my phone?

Who was snooping?

I was looking at the clock. Seeing if I was late.

Where are you going?

To see a play.

Have a good time.

You're up to something, aren't you?

No.

If you're going to call Miseon, get out of my house.

If you're not, cook some food.

Are you crazy?

How could you throw a towel at me when I'm putting mascara on!

It's all smeared!

You little…

You're going to watch this?

Don't talk to me.

[Yun Saweol as Jeong Dada]

Why are you watching this all of a sudden?

What do you mean "all of a sudden?" Don't you know I'm an actress?

And yet, you couldn't pretend to be a fake daughter.

Stop annoying me.

Tell me why you're going to see this.

I got free tickets. Are you happy?

She's a scary girl.

She's the girl who came over last time, right?

I know her. She works at the department store.

She's scarier than Shin Doyoung.

I get it now.

She's trying to pretend she's their daughter, too.

It's so obvious.

I'm pretty sure she's a better actress than you.

I think she's actually going to become their daughter.

Whatever.

Do you think Shin Doyoung would just let her do that?

[The plot was taken from a story Yun Saweol heard at her orphanage.]

[This small quiet theater hit will have an extended run.]

Saweol.

Junse, I'm in the middle of the play. I'll call you when it's done.

I've got the theme, but I don't know how to go about it.

I'd like to talk more about this next week, if that's okay with you?

Of course. Just tell me when, and I'll be there.

I'll contact you on Monday. Thanks for today.

I'll be waiting for your call.

Bye.

Who was that? She looks so scholarly.

I'm trying to finish my doctorate thesis soon

and was just getting advice from a fellow student.

Aren't you already done with it?

I finished the coursework last year, but I haven't written my thesis yet.

I want to get it done soon.

Is there a limit to your ambition?

How's the new show going?

It's going great, of course.

I hear you're co-MCing with Yi Seungyeon,

because they were too nervous to let you do it alone.

I haven't heard anything like that.

The MCs are usually the last to know. Be strong.

Hey, honey.

I had a meeting about finishing up my thesis.

Good thinking.

I'm so busy these days.

I need to do a PR spot for the Beijing Olympics,

and then send the athletes a message of support…

It's not even funny.

Why'd you leave the play that day?

I told you I wasn't feeling well.

Doyoung.

Yeah.

I don't want you to beat down any walls by yourself.

That just ends up with you not letting me in.

But I'm right next to you.

What are you talking about?

I just wish you wouldn't calculate with me and think about your pride.

I don't, so don't worry.

Whatever happens, I won't let you fall.

Whatever happens.

Why are you saying these things all of a sudden?

I'm just saying you can trust me a bit more.

I need to record now.

And I do trust you.

I actually wish you would trust me a bit more.

Why are you saying these random things?

Alright. I'm sorry.

Junse.

I couldn't bring anything last time because I was in a rush.

But still. I'm not a sumo wrestler.

Why are you giving me this?

It's fun.

The show sold out today.

I saw. They even brought out extra chairs.

Junse, I'll buy you a drink. Just wait right here.

Okay.

You're really good.

Doyoung, I'm happy things are going well with mom.

Yes.

I think she's completely forgotten about what happened to Jiyeong.

Yes.

It was the most painful memory in her life.

Do you think God is allowing her some rest from it?

Sometimes I think that it would be for the best if it continued.

I hope she stays like this, and I don't know when it will happen,

but I hope she doesn't remember until after we find Jiyeong.

Yes.

You're great. When did you learn the drums?

In medical school.

I didn't want to study, so I tried something else.

Oh, that's why you said you'd rather play the drums than the violin.

Want to try?

I can't play at all.

It gets harder the deeper you go,

but if you know the rhythm and the beat, you can pretend.

You're good.

Saweol.

Yeah?

Are you Jiyeong?

You're Doyoung's sister, Jiyeong, aren't you?

I'm not.

I hear you gave the story for the play.

Why did you give that story?

Because I heard it.

To be honest, it happened to me.

But I don't know who my sister is.

You do know.

That's why you're doing this.

I don't. I'm doing this because I don't know.

Saweol, my heart hurts because of you.

What can I do?

How can I help you?

Saweol.

Do you think I don't hurt?

I hurt when I'm Saweol.

I hurt when I'm Jiyeong. I always hurt!

Junse, I've liked you for a long time.

I think this might be my last chance to tell you.

Junse…

Junse…

Have you gone online?

The play is even more popular than the ones at the big theaters.

Let's just go with "Two Sisters" this week.

I thought we got the KAIST scientists to come.

The public wants the "Two Sisters."

And since Jam is going to be on stage,

doesn't it make sense to just segue into the play?

Since it's about sisters who sing, it would totally fit in.

Don't you think it would clash though?

If we're going to do it, we might as well do it better later on.

Don't you think so?

And let's wait until it becomes even bigger.

If it just falls out of favor, there's no point in us having done it.

If we wait, then someone else is going to beat us to it.

I think this is the perfect time.

If it gets bigger, all the shows will do it and it won't be new anymore.

I agree.

So do I.

As producer, I'll make the decision.

Let's go with "Two Sisters."

I'd better tell the actors right away.

They're going to love it.

Here you go.

Do you have time tonight?

Why? Did something happen in Hong Kong?

I just want to have a drink with you.

I have to go home right away because of my wife.

I just came to get these documents.

Is something wrong?

No, she's fine. But she gets nervous if she's alone.

Then, we'll do it tomorrow or whenever you have time.

Is something up with Doyoung?

Not at all.

Then?

If you need to tell me something, go ahead.

I'll tell you about it later.

What about the day after tomorrow?

Oh, right. I was going to see her play the day after tomorrow.

Can you watch the play after we talk?

Then let's do it the day after tomorrow.

Yes, sir.

Keep up the good work.

Doyoung!

Doyoung!

Mom!

My head is going to explode. It hurts so much.

- Honey! - Mom!

Honey, what is it?

I think my head is going to explode.

Let's go to the hospital, honey.

I don't want to.

Wait…

I think it's getting better.

Honey, don't you think we should go to the hospital?

I'm fine.

The doctor said you might get headaches.

What?

What?

Did you just say, "mommy?"

No.

Honey, who is Jiyeong?

Why? Where did you hear that name?

Since dinner, the name keeps coming to me.

Jiyeong…

Jiyeong…

You must have heard it on a soap opera.

Was I watching TV during dinner? That's not where I heard it.

You'll remember after a good night's sleep.

I think my memory loss is getting worse.

I think I'm going to have to get a checkup.

Have the five members of Jam agreed to come on the show?

Yes.

I used what little connections I had to book them.

Of course, Doyoung's clout is probably what actually got them.

I got a new song that they're arranging as well.

Then should we have a read-through?

I can't practice with this script.

What's wrong with it?

Do I really have to ask this?

Why do I have to ask about the actress's personal life?

I wrote it because we need the story behind the play.

This script is only going to serve to build Yun Saweol up.

We don't think so.

We'll talk briefly about the play and then go with the older sister.

She's more famous and a veteran actress.

What's the point of focusing on Yun Saweol?

We can't just leave her after calling both actresses here.

And they both have equal weight in the show.

Even with equal time, her orphanage stories are going to shift the focus.

I'm sure it won't. Let's go with this script.

I'm the announcer. And it's live.

I'll tweak it as I go then.

Fine.

Then take out the play and get Jam to sing for an hour,

or get Noise or Two-Two to come on the show.

I don't want to go through this just to put my play on the show.

Oh, my head. My head…

- Sanggu - Yes?

- Give me some medicine. - Where is it?

If I knew, I'd get it myself! How am I supposed to know that?

Find it.

Good work. You were great.

By chance, did you get on Shin Doyoung's bad side?

Did you make her mad somehow?

Why?

Well…

Shin Doyoung is strangely against us talking about the play on the show.

She kept changing the subject the whole time.

And she was really against us talking about you being at an orphanage.

Why's that?

Is she afraid people might accuse her of using you to get a story?

Today is the day we play all of your song requests.

We'd appreciate your participation online or by calling.

3728 requested Rimsky Korsakov's "Flight of the Bumblebee."

This is Pierre Fournier on the cello.

Why are you avoiding me? Is there a reason you're avoiding me?

You're not afraid of me, are you?

Should I redo your makeup?

Would you mind?

Does it get trying when you compare yourself to your past?

Do you ever think, "I was so busy and popular then."

I think we're still pretty popular.

Of course you are. I'm sorry.

I was joking. Of course we think that.

But continuously thinking in the past, is like

thinking about why I can't wear the same jeans as when I was 12.

It's like asking myself why they won't fit.

Things change as time goes by and you just need to accept it.

And I also have to change.

I see.

That's right. Our lives are different from what they used to be, but

individually, we've found the right way for each of us to live.

We didn't right away,

but after drinking a lot and getting in some trouble, we did.

The last question is coming up. Get ready.

Okay.

Shall we bring out our next guests then?

This play is heating up, isn't it?

It's a story about two women that's taking the theater world by storm.

Today, we've got the stars of the play "Two Sisters."

Welcome. It's nice to meet you.

Miss Kang Huilan and Miss Yun Saweol.

Yes, it's good to be here.

Hello.

I hear you're selling out the theater every day.

Yes, we didn't expect it, but we're surprised and happy every day.

I hear this is your first time on stage.

Yes, stage acting used to be a dream for me,

but you know how the "Wonder Woman Show" motto goes,

you're my dream. The world is mine.

I used to chant it every day and it gave me the courage.

So you've really benefitted from our show.

Of course.

You were almost going to find my parents on the show, remember?

I have really deep ties with the "Wonder Woman Show."

That's not in the script.

We're off topic. Ignore it.

Go with the script, Doyoung.

After your last musical, you rested for a while, didn't you?

Yes.

After doing five shows back-to-back, I felt really worn out.

So I said I'd rest until I found a really good project.

You play a strong and lonely character. Do you like your role?

At first, I hesitated because it was such a hard character,

but as I got into it, I felt a catharsis,

and I've cried a lot because of all of the emotion.

You play the most popular singer in Korea…

Hey…

You just skipped Yun Saweol's question.

We have enough time.

You can ask all of the questions, Doyoung.

I went to karaoke rooms and I received vocal lessons as well.

[Ask all the questions. We have time.]

I heard at first, you saw the script and didn't want to do it.

Yes.

Because the older sister role is so strong and tragic.

People have said that it's a cruel and dark revenge story.

Why did you say that? Where does…

Where does it say it's cruel and dark?

It's about revenge,

but more than that, it's about loneliness and a desire for love.

But I'm sure you didn't want to do it.

Yes.

But then the writer told me the story came from Yun Saweol,

and then I started to warm to it.

It must't have been easy to declare that she lived in an orphanage.

It wasn't that hard.

It's not a sin to have grown up without parents.

There's no point in hiding it.

Yes, I see.

If you take something small and lie about it,

you have to lie about bigger things in order to keep the first lie going.

Seeing that in action, I just think honesty is the best policy.

You would've done the same, right?

Well, I'm not actually sure.

Alright, why don't we take a look at the play in action?

How was today's play?

I saw it without any expectations,

but I think the play and the acting were really great.

It was really sad, and it's been a while since I've been so emotional.

Why are you saying things we didn't rehearse?

Because you keep skipping questions and changing things.

In a live show, it's natural to change things a bit.

Alright, we'll give the audience the chance

to see a scene from the play right here.

Are you two ready?

Wait, what about this?

What if Shin Doyoung played the part of the older sister?

What is this? Why are there so many changes today?

Shin Doyoung will take care of it.

The atmosphere is really strange. Move on naturally, Doyoung, okay?

Standby.

Camera 2, go!

I'm such a big fan, and I've always wanted to do this scene with you.

I'm no actress,

and I don't want people to get the wrong idea about…

Hey everybody!

Don't you want to see Shin Doyoung act?

If you want to see her act, applaud!

Then give me the script.

Everyone, I'm going to try my best.

Sis, have you been enjoying your life?

So you're alive. I was hoping you were dead.

I was dead.

Thanks to you, I died, and thanks to you, I'm alive.

[Jeong nana: I heard you said you would kill me.]

I heard you said you would kill me.

No, sis.

Dying isn't punishment.

Living in pain is punishment.

I'm going to take away everything that makes you shine.

How do you plan to do that?

I know what scares you.

Losing the people you love.

That scares everyone.

I'm immune from it, thanks to you.

Yeonghui, let me tell you something.

For a year after you disappeared, our house was in despair.

Everything was destroyed.

But like you said, humans are tough and vicious.

But after forgetting the pain of losing you, it started to become normal.

I was always first in my class,

and I was always a good girl and mom and dad forgot you.

Our family never

looked for you hard enough to match how much you missed us.

I see. I didn't know that.

That's alright. Things happen.

But why doesn't it seem like you're very loved?

You don't have that glow of someone who's loved.

Why's that?

Why did you try so hard to be first in your class?

Because if not, mom wouldn't give you the time of day?

People who are loved have bright faces and are relaxed.

But your face is always cold and anxious.

Like a scared kid who's been caught red-handed.

Shut up. Before I break your neck.
