Brotherhood
Their moment is interrupted when Geon-no suddenly enters the house. Hae rushes to close the bedroom door, but Je-yeon accidentally greets Geon-no, shocking him. Moments later, Seok-joo also walks in and is equally stunned to find Je-yeon there.
As Hae and Je-yeon whisper about how she’ll sneak out, the two guys eavesdrop from the living room. Geon-no confronts Hae for keeping Seok-joo in the dark about his condition after Seok-joo has left.

Love and First Snow
At the hospital, Seok-joo learns about Hae’s illness. Overwhelmed, Seok-joo tells his brother how much he admires and cares for him before breaking down. He asks Hae to leave so he won’t see him cry.
Tae-rin comes to pick Seok-joo up from the hospital. She sits far away and calls him instead of approaching directly. She asks him if he wants comfort or if he wants to be left alone. He looks at her, and she then sits beside him and pats his back.
Later, Hae and Je-yeon go out to eat together. Je-yeon tells him about quitting her job. When Hae goes to pick up food, he suddenly feels dizzy.
He tells her not to follow him to the restroom, knowing she will anyway. To stop her, he texts that he went to a farther restroom because the nearby one is under construction. Je-yeon secretly follows and sees him struggling, but she doesn’t approach him.
When Hae returns, he lies about getting lost. As they sit together, snow begins to fall. In a series of parallel scenes, the snow brings warmth to everyone:
Pil-doo and Chan share a moment outdoors, Geon-no feeds stray cats, Gi-ppeum offers food to Han-na, and Nu-ri and Sa-rang play in the snow. Seok-joo and Tae-rin share drinks, and she smiles as he finally smiles again. Under the snowfall, Hae and Je-yeon walk together. “When you’re too happy,” she says softly, “it can be scary too.”
