Hi!
I was just wondering what song it is the jonghwa sings all the time?
It's from a TV commercial in Korea.
OK. Good bye!
Go... go...
Hurry to Loan Loan King.
There's a car coming.
What is it, Jong-hwa?
I was afraid you might get hurt.
Mom is sorry, okay?
Mom is sorry.
Yes, sorry.
Mom is sorry.
Mom is sorry.
Mom is sorry.
Kids who went to the camp said it's great.
You'll have fun.
I'm worried you'll like it so much you won't come back.
I love you.
Speedy Loan Loan King
Please..
I'm afraid not. You have to follow our rules.
I'll just watch from a distance.
I won't get in your way
Yes.. But there's no point to this camp, if parents comes along.
You just have to trust us and let us take care of him
I promise. I won't be in your way.
My son needs me with him.
If you're this concerned, then maybe you should take him home with you
Pardon?
Think about the reason you came all the way here.

Excuse me.
Do you have a light?
Thank you
You're from Korea, right?
Yes.
Is the camp far from here?
It's near Tampere. It'll take 3 to 4 hours.
You're really okay with this?
Yes.
Anyway...
You thanked me already.
Are you sure we're going in the right direction?
Yes.
You don't talk much.
Not really.
It's over there.
It's dangerous.
No, it's not. You can come.
Let's go to the camp.
Across this lake?
We need to get to the kids.
We can go by car, but let's try this way.
Just kidding.
Let's go back now.
We're not seeing the kids?
It's okay. I've seen where they are.
Your coffee.
Only one cup?
I don't drink coffee because of my stomach.
But all they have to eat are sandwiches.
Coffee is enough.
I think you should eat something warm.
That would be nice, but we'd better hurry.
Shall we?
How about finding a place to eat first?
My treat. You drove all this way.
This kind of food don't suit me.
My tastes are too Korean.
I like soybean paste and that sort of thing.
So when I go abroad, I carry around red-pepper paste.
Do you have it with you?
Why?
May I have it?
Is it good?
Yes.
So you've been here two years.
Is life better here?
Well, it's alright.
It took some time getting used to it.
But life is the same everywhere.
What?
What kind of answer is that? Vague and thoughtless.
I mean, it's nice.
Quiet and clean.
Lots of snow...
The road's blocked, we need to wait.
Until when?
It has to stop snowing first, so they don't know yet.
What shall we do...?
You can probably catch a train at Tampere.
Let's try that.
And you stay here alone?
I guess.
It's a common thing here.
Then I'll wait with you.
It might take really long.
It's alright, we're near the camp anyways.
I'll bet the kids are doing better than we are.
So did your girl get better living here?
Well, yes and no.
- Another vague answer. - No, I mean it.
You can't see progress on the outside.
Depression isn't cured easily.
Oh, I thought she was like my son, being at the same school.
The condition of my son is...
really quite bad.
Since coming here, I check the time constantly.
I've lost all sense of if it's day or night.
I've been there, too.
- You're up. - Hi...
Why are you up so early?
I thought I'd take a walk.
We walked quite a bit, are you okay?
I'm fine.
The place I work is by a mountain.
So every clay I walk up and down the hill.
Which mountain?
Mt. Namsan.
You can call it a mountain, too.
Look.
I think it's a sauna.
Are you okay?
Is it okay to just come in?
Don't know.
Someone's just been here.
A sauna deep in the forest...
People here love saunas.
They say Finns build themselves saunas before houses.
Even 100 years ago, women gave birth in saunas.
They even have a legend
about 'Saunatonttu', an elf living in the sauna.
If people are naughty here, the elf gets angry and...
Sorry.
What were you talking about?
About...
the elf in the sauna.
I woke up this morning,
and I was alone.
I thought I'd fall apart if my son wasn't by my side.
But strangely, I felt calm.
I haven't felt that before...
Take care.
Wait.
I don't even know your name.
It's me.
Hey...
Did I wake you up? Sorry.
Today is Sunday.
Is something wrong?
No, I just called.
Hi.
My feet... ice... Home...
Your feet are cold? Yes, let's go home.
- My feet... - Poor Jong-hwa's feet are cold?
My feet... ice...

He seems to be calmer.
How was it there?
Okay.
- Heard it's freaking cold. - Yeah, it is.
But it's nice. Quiet and clean.
Lots of snow.
We have quite a lot here, too.
It's different, really.
What's so different?
It's just...
different.
8 MONTHS LATER
With this high ceiling, it feels too big.
It seems that way because of the glass.
But the mood totally changes after sunset.
How many guests were you thinking?
About 200 to 300?
What do you think?
I like the open space,
but with a square shape the runway and seating
will be hard to arrange in an interesting way.
Shall we keep looking? There's not much time.
Finding a place with glass walls won't be easy.
And if you think about parking, there wouldn't be
better options in Seoul for a fashion show venue.
Hello, Teacher.
I want to see how it looks like in the evening.
