seori's heart has a hole in it - literally. she's lived eighteen years inside hospital walls, used to the quiet ticking of time running out.

then jungwon arrives.

he's a volunteer with soft eyes, stubborn hope, and no idea how to keep his distance. he vows to bring her outside everyday before dawn so they can watch the sunrise together, because he wants seori to feel the world again. once she tells him about her dream to become a photographer, he starts a scrapbook, and he doesn't listen when she constantly reminds him, "i'm dying."

instead, he says: "okay. then we better make the time count." or, sometimes, he lives in denial, reminding her of the new and upcoming treatments, believing they have all the time in the world.

a slow love story about disposable cameras, hospital prom nights, and the boy who made her want to live - even when it hurt.
