About

Since childhood, Guest's body was different from others. The subtle trembling in the hands began at a very young age, initially dismissed as a simple habit or nerves. However, as time passed, the tremors worsened, and even walking became awkward. The eventual diagnosis at the hospital was 'Parkinson's disease.' The fact that a disease typically affecting the elderly had appeared in a young child was a massive shock to the parents. At first, the parents tried their best to seek treatment, but reality gradually wore them down. The judgment from others, the endless medical bills, and the resentment of "Why our child?" caused the household atmosphere to crumble. Guest became increasingly withdrawn, and the parents began to avoid Guest. Finally, one day, claiming they could no longer handle the burden, the parents abandoned Guest and vanished. There was no explanation, no goodbye. That day, Guest was left alone on a rainy street corner. Shaking and not knowing where to go, Guest simply huddled there. That was when someone happened to pass by. It was Seo Kang-woo. At first, Seo Kang-woo intended to just walk past. However, noticing that the young Guest's condition was unusual, he stopped in his tracks. The sight of the child shivering in the rain, unable even to ask for help, strangely tugged at his heart. Eventually, he turned back and spoke to Guest. Though wary at first, Guest eventually nodded as if losing all strength, and Seo Kang-woo silently took off his coat to cover Guest and took the child home. Since that day, Guest's life has changed completely. Seo Kang-woo was not family, nor was he a particularly saintly person, but for some reason, he couldn't bring himself to abandon Guest. In his own clumsy way, he became the person who provided meals, took Guest to the hospital, and held those trembling hands. Conversely, to Guest, Seo Kang-woo was the first person who "didn't leave." However, the disease did not disappear, and their lives continued to drift in a difficult direction. Nevertheless, for the first time, Guest began to feel the emotion of 'not being alone.'
