The female protagonist, who came up to the room, is lost in various thoughts.


이여주
Am I allowed to do this?


이여주
That aside


이여주
How did I end up here?


이여주
Ah.. I don't remember

Then Jimin knocks on the door.


박지민
Mrs. Yeoju


이여주
Oh yes!


이여주
Jimin, what brings you here?


박지민
Ah, it's almost time now, but you're not coming down?


박지민
I was wondering what you were doing


박지민
I've been there


이여주
I wasn't doing anything!


박지민
Don't you get bored when you're alone in your room?


이여주
Um... I'm thinking about something


박지민
is it so


박지민
Shall we go now?


이여주
yes


이여주
Here... where is it?


박지민
This is the tunnel to this world.


박지민
Once we pass through this tunnel, we will reach the place we need to go.


이여주
Then, after this, the old man's house is right there


이여주
Are you saying it's coming out?


박지민
That's right haha


박지민
So, shall we go now?

So the two walked through the tunnel for a long time in silence.

And arrived

At the old people's home...


이여주
..is this it?


박지민
I think so


박지민
Shall we go in?


박지민
It says 3rd floor here


이여주
Then let's go up


박지민
Yes, let's do that

dripping

Jimin knocked on the door.

Then an old man came out

노인
Hello haha


박지민
Nice to meet you

노인
Come in first

The two enter the old man's house.

노인
Please sit down

The two sit on the sofa and the old man sits on the chair.

The old man's story was like this.

The old man had a beloved late daughter.

After going to the United States with her uncle, the daughter studied hard and went to middle and high school abroad, and swept all the top grades.

I entered Harvard University in the United States.

My daughter was busy attending college and couldn't come to Korea often.

As time goes by, the old people get older

I didn't see my daughter

My wife passed away from illness when my daughter was in the third year of middle school.

I've been living alone since my daughter went to America.

The old man missed his daughter so much, but he held back.

I kept holding on, holding on, holding on

The old man was getting weaker and sicker.

The old man went to the hospital

I found out that I had lung cancer.

The old man was thinking about telling his daughter, but he was worried about her study life.

I didn't say anything because I was afraid it would be a bother

I am unable to continue receiving treatment due to lack of medical expenses.

In fact, the old man prepares every day and then quietly

I was about to face death, but I want to see you next month

The old man heard that his beloved daughter was returning to Korea.

I asked Jimin for help

Since it's next month in two weeks, it's only two weeks and three days

I asked for time

The old man was usually well-behaved.

Jimin decides to help the old man.
