As I watch a drama yesterday, there’s an old lady who got a dementia.
When her daughter-in-law asked “Mother, who am I?” and she answered,
“Chong semi!”
Then the daughter-in-law said, “Oh, you’re smart!”
Is it that funny?
Yeah, “Chong semi!” Isn’t it funny?
A dementia patient is not that gracious as portrayed in TV.
Actually, my grandma died of a dementia when I was little.
Oh, I’m sorry.
The brain stops functioning right. Normally their IQs drop to like 80.
What? 80?
Yes.
Unlike those in TV dramas, they make lots of troubles, giving hard time to caregivers.
They just disappear, resist taking a shower, yelling and shouting…
And in worst case, they just poo anywhere.
Oh no.
Yes, it’s “Oh, no.”
I’m fortunate that I don’t have a grandma with a dementia.
Yes, you are really blessed one.
Yep, maybe one of the most blessed one.
Huh?
Who is it?
Must be Amber.
Dad?
I do envy you.
I’ll give you a prettier gift on your birthday.
I’m talking about his heart. He remembered it until now and…
I think even if you didn’t see each other again,
I’m sure he would send you a gift in secret.
Well….
We should treat people with our heart, and we’ll be blessed. I learned it from you.
You are also a kindhearted Nightingale.
I want three-fold tissue, not two-fold.
Ok. I’ll be back soon.
Ok.
No calls from Mom?
No.
Something could happen to her.
If there was, she would have called me.
Did she get mad at you after I left home?
Well, I approved Younggook to marry Jade.
When?
On the 20th next month.
What? Then what about me and Amber?
You can remain as good friends.
That’s unfair!
You can understand me later.
Understand what? You’re always on his side.
Just study hard and go to college.
If you and Amber don’t change, then I’ll think about it
You’re a liar. I’m not gonna study. Not gonna go to college!
Then don’t. For whom do you study?
I know you will separate us in the end.
Right?
I hate you!
Did you get your hair cut this fast?
Is Jade still home?
Yes.
I just heard you’re marrying 20th next month? Is it true?
Yes. Goodsoon told you that?
But you promised to put it off for a while.
It’s Mr. Suh’s decision.
Goodsoon is crying a lot now!
Come on. You have to study, not think of marriage now.
I didn’t say we’re gonna marry now. Also you and Dad married young.
If you feel that bitter, go deal with her father!
Look. Jade is now 29. It’s natural she marries ahead of you, ok?
Ask people about this case, and then everybody will say you’re crazy!
Yes, I’m crazy!
Just go do your business.
Thirty four.
Can you answer the phone?
Ok.
Twenty five.
This is Sunny. Yes, she did.
She’s being measured now. Ok, bye.
Younggook?
Yes.
You don’t have much time then.
I know.
But your skin looks pretty good, so you’ll be ok only with a few treatments.
Some people have skin trouble after skincare treatment.
Don’t worry.
There’s nothing we can do. Let’s just accept it.
When is Jade back home usually?
She’s late in these days.
Call and tell her I need to talk to her!
Hey….Please, don’t. Ok?
At least I can try! I can’t accept it without asking her what happened. I need to talk!
Bracelet is busy with wedding preparation. She has to get her dress and take skincare…
But she’ll stop by around tomorrow.
Ok….
And Mother, I’ll get you a nice hanbok tomorrow�
