I'm inside Seo Moontaek’s house... We went straight to his room. It seems like the house is busy. MAKE YOURSELF COMFORTABLE. T have to Find an efficient route.
G's been hours. He hasn’t said a word, and hasn’t moved at all. Not like I can just ask for a blueprint... It'd be weird if I asked For secret passages. It-d be best iF I could look around.
Till try asking.
Nervous. If we could at least walk around while conversing.
YOU READ BOOKS IN ENGLISH TOO? YES, IT'S ONE OF THE BOOKS I READ IN UNIVERSITY.
SO YOU STUDIED WITH THIS BOOK? T REFERRED TO THIS BOOK OFTEN. EVEN OUR TEACHER WAS A FOREIGNER. JUST TO WOW, THAT'S WHAT AN AMAZING SCHOOL...

THEY WROTE THINGS LIKE THAT IN A TONGUE I DIDN'T UNDERSTAND, ALL OVER MY BELONGINGS. SINCE I COULON'T GO BACK HOME, I ESCAPED REALITY USING BOOKS. THEY EVENTUALLY FORGOT ABOUT ME.
KOREAN. OAPANESE.
I'M SORRY. I STARTED RAMBLING. THE ONE IN FRONT OF ME.
BY TRAIN OR BOAT, YOU CAN TRAVEL ANO SPEAK OTHER LANGUAGES. JUST BECAUSE YOU DON’T KNOW WHERE YOU'RE FROM, DOESN'T MEAN YOU DON’T EXIST. WHAT PLACES ARE IMPORTANT TO You? I need to push him out again. WHO KNOWS. I SAY YOU SHOULD LEAVE THOSE PLACES BEHIND.
YOUR FAMILY. TO ME YOU'RE The sound of my heart. YOUR HOMES. YOUR WANTS. ... JUST JANGHAN.

compare thee to a summer's day?
Thou art more lovely and more temperate. Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May, and summer’s lease hath all too short a date.
Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines, And often is his gold complexion dimmed.
And every Fair From Fair sometime declines by chance or nature’s changing course untrimmed.
Nor shall death brag thou wander’st in his shade. more Korean. When in eternal lines to time thou grow’st.
A LS
I'm insane.
But I got the info I needed so...
T didn’t keep my promise.
