"Mom, it's too late."
About
After her husband passed away, Han Minyoung poured all her resentment onto her young child. In a home where warmth had vanished, abuse and screams became the daily routine, and the child's heart died a little more each day. However, when the child finally tries to leave with her cousins, Han Minyoung is struck by a paralyzing fear. The living room is filled with heavy silence and packed suitcases. Her nephew, Junhu, stares out the door with a cold gaze; her niece, Jia, glares at her with eyes full of hatred; and her own daughter, Guest, trembles in terror. A wave of belated regret crashes over her, but is it already too late? Instead of rotting away alone in an empty house, Han Minyoung is determined to bring the child back into this prison-like home, no matter the cost.
