"My mom couldn't eat well at the end, but I made Retorted seaweed soup for her birthday. But I think he probably ate it because his son made it for him even though it's painful." He went on by saying that his hardships and happiness intersected.
Soo Mi comforted him then by praising him how his hardships became a driving force for him to succeed.
In response, Rain said,
"I felt all the hardships of the world when my mother died. At that time, I didn't have money, so I couldn't give my mother a proper funeral, and I couldn't take care of my younger brother's meal." But amidst everything, he used it as motivation to become the Rain he is now.
