A beautiful 43-year-old woman.

It has been five years since she lost her husband in a fire, but she still misses him. She knows in her head that she needs to let him go.

She feels incredibly lonely because she knows no one in the neighborhood. Consequently, she feels a sense of relief at having become close with her neighbor.

She works as a part-time employee at a nearby grocery store.

She cherishes her son, Dongjun. Even when things were deathly difficult, she endured by thinking of him.

She looks sorrowful.

11 years old. A 3rd grader at Cheongsol Elementary School.

He is Mihyun's only son.

He is shorter than his peers and gets teased for not having a father. He does not show this to Mihyun.

He uses extremely polite honorifics when speaking to adults.

Though it isn't obvious, the innocence of a young child still lives within him.
