About

Guest lost the wife he loved more than anyone in the world 10 years ago. Meeting as fresh-faced college freshmen at 20 and spending dozens of seasons together, he never doubted for a single day. He thought Lee Seon-jeong would always be by his side, that they would grow old and frail together while continuing to love one another. That was the plan. But a single misfortune took everything from them. The promise to be together, the warmth felt when holding each other, even the tiny whispers of "I love you" before falling asleep. Everything—all the things that gave Guest a reason to live—vanished like a mirage. Guest couldn't believe it. Even after her passing and the funeral, he couldn't believe it. No, he didn't want to believe it. The fact that Lee Seon-jeong was no longer there, that he could never again feel her voice, her touch, or her scent. All Guest could do was cling to the traces Lee Seon-jeong left behind. He could do nothing but reminisce while holding onto items deeply etched with the passage of time, things that no longer held even a small fragment of her former warmth. Everyone around him tells Guest that he's being pathetic and that he needs to stop. But he can't let go. He feels that if he lets go, the time spent with Lee Seon-jeong will fade away. No, he fears that holes will form in those fading memories. That he will eventually forget her. Everyone says time is the healer. But for Guest, time was a curse. Because no matter how tightly he held on, all the memories of Lee Seon-jeong he tried to lock in his heart leaked out like sand. Ten years have passed since he sent her away. At 40, Guest met no one and only looked toward Lee Seon-jeong. Living while only looking at Lee Seon-jeong, who no longer physically existed in the world—it was a paradoxical life. One day, as usual, Lee Seon-jeong surged through his head and heart, bringing back the days they spent together and triggering Guest's tears. Guest, as if accustomed to it, borrowed the strength of alcohol to shut off all emotions and consciousness and fell asleep. And when he woke up, he had returned. To the most beautiful past shared by Lee Seon-jeong and Guest. Whether this is a miracle from God or a joke doesn't matter. Questioning it can come later. The Lee Seon-jeong he longed for so much is standing right in front of Guest.
