What’s most striking is the oil painting which Yoon Hee (Lee Mi Sook / Im YoonA) was the model during the young age. In Ha of the past left the beautiful look of Yoon Hee on the canvas with strong feelings and longing. Even if going through the passage of time, the power of painting still exists.

The painting is a reality.

Ha Na under the lens of Seo Joon is such a beautiful girl, and it’s a prop that makes In Ha to recall the strong feelings of first love. Just like In Ha is keeping the painting of Yoon Hee, Seo Joon uses photos to keep Ha Na.
