"Mr. Kim, here you are."

Yoo-jin puts a glass on the table.

Kim, saying thanks, approaches the table and takes a sip of water while standing.

She glances at the ceiling and walls nostalgically and says to Joon-sang.

"Joon-sang, may I look around the other rooms?"

"Ah...Of course! You're the one who designed this house. Any room you want to!"

Kim adds jokingly.

"Make complaints If you find any construction failures, ok?"

With a giggle, she goes to see the rooms.

Looking alternately at Yoo-jin's back and Joon-sang sitting silently, Kim holds the glass of water and drinks it dry.

As he puts down the empty glass, he follows her, saying to him.

"Right then, I'll help her."

Leaning back in his chair, Joon-sang gives a small nod.

He heaves a sigh and reaches for his tea, which has gone cold.

Yoo-jin slowly looks around the room designed as a living room(almost empty, with no furniture).

"How do you feel, Yoo-jin-si? You are in the house that use to be a model in your hands."

Hearing the voice, Yoo-jin turns around and nods with a smile.

"Very strange. It became a reality."

She recalls those days.

"I did my best to design it day after day. I drew a plan, fixed it. Then fixed it countless times. I remember everything about this house, no matter how petty."

She continues with emotion.

"But they said it would cost a lot of money to build it. Do you know how disappointed I was?"

She sees Kim nodding a couple of times and touches the wall, saying.

"Jeong-ah-si named it 'the impossible house'. Terrible, isn't it?"

He laughs haha.

''Well... That sounds like something she'd say."

"Oh my!"

They giggle.

She looks at Kim.

"By the way Mr. Kim, did anything happened to your relationship after that? I mean, Jeong-ah-si and you"

The unexpected question puzzled him, saying:


"Well, there were nothing at all. Ever.. I don't um...ur..."

"Really? Honestly I__"

"It's you who should be celebrated."

He interrupts her words as she is about to say something.

"Congratulations, Yoo-jin-si !"

" ? "

She looks at him questionably.

It is a relief for him to tell her congratulations and to hush up.

"You must be very happy to be married and have a new family!" says he.

As she doesn't understand what he is talking about, she blinks and says.

"A new family? Um....what are you talking about?"
