CARD TWENTY YEARS AGO, DUE TO MY FATHER'S SUDDEN TRANSFER TO THE HEADQUARTERS, WE MOVED INTO A SMALL APARTMENT WE COULD FIND IN A HURRY. THE KID LIVING NEXT DOOR AT THAT TIME WAS LEE JU-YOUNG. MY FATHER WAS SAILING THROUGH HIS CAREER AS AN EXECUTIVE AT AN AUTO PARTS MANUFACTURING COMPANY, AND THAT WAS ALSO WHEN MY MOTHER WAS GAINING FAME AS A RENOWNED ARCHITECT.

I THINK THAT'S JU-YOUNG'S STRENGTH, BUT I'M VERY WORRIED SHE'LL TRIP WHILE RUN- NING AROUND HERE AND THERE. IT WAS A BIT NOISY AND STRANGE, BUT IT WAS WARM AND AFFECTIONATE. YOU HAVE TO HOLD ONTO HER WELL FROM YOUR SIDE. AND LEE JU-YOUNG WAS... AREN'T YOU SAD? HUH? IT'S SAD. JUST AS MUCH AS THAT UNI- QUENESS, SHE WAS SPECIAL TO ME. SHE USED TO CRY EVEN IF SHE GOT A TINY SCRAPE... IS IT A FANTASY NOVEL AGAIN? IT'S FUN, YOU KNOW. AT TIMES I ADMIRED HER, AT TIMES I WAS JEALOUS OF HER, IT'S NOT EVEN ANY HELP IN LIFE.
