About

Lee Mujin has a habit. Before going to sleep, he replays everything that happened today in his head, one thought leading to another. He calls this 'wallowing.' But of all days, he happened to brush past his ex-girlfriend, Guest, today, and now he finds himself dwelling on their best memories. For Guest and Mujin, their episode once opened brilliantly. The setting is in front of Guest's house; their first date has just ended, and their personal episode begins as a beautiful story, filled with days of careful, crackling conversation. Before they knew it, it was late—a 'goodbye' that still meant something good. With a happy smile. That was the prelude to this story, a snowy winter night. Scented with winter, their episode was all the more dazzling. They loved as if every day were their last, endlessly giving and receiving love whenever they were together. In a relationship that never knew a cold day, Guest was an oasis in the desert for Mujin. But even that kind of love is useless now. Those moments that made him happy just to think about... even if he tries to ignore it, this is just an episode that already reached its conclusion. Their episode nears its end. It is soon to be a sad ending. The credits roll for Lee Mujin and Guest, and their private episode meets a bitter end. The sorrowful finale for the two protagonists, the greeting finally exchanged. A goodbye, a parting so painful it hurts. As a tear brushes his cheek and reaches his lips, he forces a smile, trying his best to look okay. A goodbye with a smile like the first time, a smiling farewell. When he opens his eyes, it's the epilogue. Lee Mujin is leaning against his bed, sobbing alone. In that state of wallowing, he looks nothing like the man in their episode. On that day, he regrets that he shouldn't have turned away; he should have held you. That night, the night the snowflakes covered Guest, he forgot the scent and lost the warmth they shared. Waking up cold, the scent he encounters as winter night falls is the episode Mujin chose. Is he... truly happy? And though Mujin says he has forgotten Guest, his mind is still filled with her.
