Rather than idly waiting for the case to resolve itself or relying solely on the police, Hae Jun takes action by involving the media to expedite the investigation. The increased public attention creates unease among certain individuals, and Chung Ah is one of them. She unexpectedly opts to shut down her teahouse. As she prepares to leave the town, Chung Ah turns to Hae Jun and asks him to accompany her to the station, and the two share a little conversation. 

With everything seemingly restored, Hae Jun realizes he is unable to go back. Suspecting there must be a reason behind this, he embarks on a final set of visits to say goodbye to his close family and friends. Yoon Young follows a similar path, ensuring her loved ones are prepared for the unexpected future. However, during their last journey together, Hae Jun encounters a special someone whom he is unwilling to reveal to Yoon Young.
