Here, in a coffee shop, two men and women, each experiencing a profound change, stood facing each other.



하성운
Why. Why did you call?


김주연
...Seongwoon...



하성운
What... why are you changing your name...


김주연
Let's stop here.


하성운
what?


김주연
Let's break up.


김주연
Please...break up with me...


하성운
...


김주연
..instead


김주연
Take one last trip with me. A farewell trip.


김주연
I hope Sungwoon remembers me...



하성운
...Where...are you going?


김주연
...


하성운
..Okay..let's go.



하성운
Just one last time.


김주연
mom..

She came into the house to pack her bags.

As she entered the house, her mother, who suffered from a level 1 hearing impairment, greeted her as always.


김주연
Mom... I broke up with Seongwoon...


김주연
So I decided to go to the beach with my friends for a day.


김주연
I'm leaving tomorrow...


엄마
..

Her mother couldn't really speak, but her expression seemed to say something.


엄마
'Have a safe trip..'

The next morning, the man and woman were heading to their destination in a car driven by the man.

The car was filled with such cold air that the bright beat of the song on the radio was almost colorless, and there was no warmth to be found.

The only warmth inside the car was the direct sunlight.

The woman sat in the back seat, next to the man who was driving, leaving the passenger seat empty.

The structure further lowered the temperature inside the car.

The two arrived at the beach around sunset due to traffic congestion and unpacked at a nearby lodging.

And when we arrived at the beach, the sun was gradually disappearing from the horizon.

Even in such a beautiful landscape, the two still felt awkward and cold.


김주연
..I'm here...

She broke the coldness with one word.


What she said will be described in the next episode.

"I'm sorry.."

"I heard that when I was trying to rest..."

"I'm sorry too... Seongwoon."

"huh?"

"..Let's be happier together in the next life.."
