Dark night.
Yong-hoon’s old detached house surrounded by a low wall.
After parking the car in the parking lot, Exchange, while walking towards the front gate, had to exert force on his ankles, which wobbled several times.
He couldn’t even dare to imagine the shock Yong-hoon would receive when he heard his story.
When he found out that the prosecution investigation was wrong at the time, the first person who came to mind was Yong-hoon, his deceased wife’s father.
“Choi Seobang?”
Yong-hoon, who had just returned from the market with makgeolli and acorns, looked at the black silhouette standing in front of the gate and hesitated.
“What’s going on here? You told me not to think about seeing your face again.”
Seeing Exchange’s gaze, who was silently looking at him, move down and up again when he saw the black bag swaying, Yong-hoon discreetly hid behind his back.
Already living alone, if he knew that he drank alone too, he might look even more pitiful.
Exchange approached, grabbed the bag with makgeolli, and bluntly took it.
“How have you been?”
Having sent his wife and only daughter first, the figure of the craftsman who had lived a lonely life for a long time seemed particularly small today.
“How’s your health? It hasn’t been long since you woke up from the hospital, and without contacting, you came here for some reason?”
Seeing Exchange’s gaze that silently looked at him, Yong-hoon’s Adam’s apple went up and down, and he opened the front gate first and entered.
“If you have something to say, come in and talk.”
Don’t make a fuss in the neighborhood like last time.
“Have you eaten dinner?”
Yong-hoon, who had entered the house, turned around and looked at Exchange following him, then hesitated.
Exchange put the bag with makgeolli on the floor in front of the entrance and knelt down, sitting on his knees.
“Father, I’m really sorry. I was wrong.”
He didn’t know his feelings. He felt guilty for exploding like a fire.
“Get up. Forget about it because I think you could have thought that way from your perspective.”
Thinking that Yong-hoon had come here to apologize for the last time, he turned the topic as if he didn’t want to make it uncomfortable with that matter anymore.
“Would you like a glass of makgeolli?”
In the bag placed on the dining table, there were freshly bought plump acorns.
“You should eat rice. What if you drink on an empty stomach?”
Already living alone and having no family to take care of him if he collapsed.
“For me, this is dinner. Don’t you know that makgeolli, made from rice, becomes a meal?”
“I don’t know.”
“Well, you…!”
This seems like he didn’t come to apologize but to scratch his own itch.
“I’m hungry. Please give me food. It hasn’t been long since I was discharged from the hospital, and if I go to your house and say I didn’t eat, Mom will scold me.”
“Why are you looking for food here? If you want to eat so badly, ask your mother. Without a mother-in-law, coming to the house of the father-in-law who lives alone and asking shamelessly, don’t you think it’s rude?”
Even if he gives it, he thought he would immediately give it a thump on the head if it was made by Grandmother Bong, the teacher.
Yong-hoon, since Exchange said so, reluctantly put rice in the electric rice cooker and took out frozen chicken soup from the freezer.
“Does it suit your taste?”
“Yes, it’s delicious.”
Even though he said he spent more time at a side dish store than at home throughout his life.
Exchange, whose mouth felt dry, put sliced green onions into the boiling chicken soup in the pot, sprinkled pepper, and then blew gently before sipping the broth.
“I’m glad it suits your taste.”
Yong-hoon, who still didn’t know the reason why he came, picked up the spoon satisfactorily.
“Do you know that Grandmother Bong and your mother visited the hospital?”
“Ah… Yes.”
Exchange tried to pretend he didn’t know, but as soon as his eyes met Yong-hoon’s, he nodded.
“When you were sick, Kang Jae-ik visited Grandmother Bong. He said if you go to law school, he’ll pay for your tuition and help you get a job, so come under him.”
“That’s what happened.”
Now that he knows everything, it can only be considered that he took action in advance in case Hyojin, who has become a lawyer, investigates his father’s case.
Because the truth will eventually come out.
“Still, Hyojin stayed by your side. Until you collapsed and got up, she was with you.”
Exchange, who swallowed a grain of rice in his mouth with a bitter smile, opened his lips.
“Why on earth did Grandmother Bong do that?”
If he had gone to Kang Jae-ik at that time, he wouldn’t feel so sorry now.
To a person who doesn’t even know that he is by his side after waking up. Why?
Now that he knows that her father has been falsely accused and has lived a hard life until now, it feels even worse.
“…Your father said that to me.”
“What did I do?”
Yong-hoon, thinking he might be investigating the last incident, tensed up.
“Grandmother Bong’s father didn’t kill Se-in, he saved her…!”
“Why are you suddenly talking about that?”
