[9 Seconds - Eternal Time]
----
This camera stops time, right?
I still can't believe it, even when I saw it with my own eyes.
Me too.
Have you ever heard about a camera like this before?
No.
Do you think the person who sold this knew that it could do such a thing?
I think if he knew, he wouldn't have sold it.
But how much film is left?
That's right, the film.
Huh?
It said it had seven shots left before, but it's still says seven.
I think this is broken.
Then we don't know how many more pictures are left.
I guess we shouldn't just take pictures of anything.
How should we use this special camera?
Mom?
Expo Park?
Okay, I'll find my way there.
What about Expo Park?
Errands.
My mom is the festival coordinator there.
Oh, my uncle is there to take pictures of the festival.
- Really? - Let's go together.
I'll teach you the directions.
[9 Seconds - Eternal Time] [Episode 3: A Step Closer]
Deputy Kim, I just came out front for a second.
Take a cab back home, okay?
Mom, when--
Yes, I'll be in soon, so just make an estimate.
Okay, I'll go in and take care of it.
You're still here?
I have to take care of the young lady's safety until the end.
Since we are here, shall we take a look around the festival?
The festival?
It's a waste to just go home since we are already here.
Oh, thank you for coming out like this.
No, I'm thankful that I got to enjoy the festival.
But, I thought we were coming here with Yoo Chan.
Where is Yoo Chan?
Oh, Yoo Chan is...
Uncle!
Oh, Yoo Chan...
you were here meeting your friend!
I guess you came after meeting your friend.
Yes. Yes.
You were with So Ra.
Oh, we are neighbors.
I was just taking her around Kyung Joo Expo.
Oh, let's see what time it is.
Do you want to watch the flying performance while you're here?
The flying performance is a lot of fun to watch.
- Oh, really? - Yes.
Then should we all go watch it together?
Oh, with everyone together.
Yes, yes, why don't we do that?
It should be fun with everyone together.
Whoa!
It was a lot of fun, thank you.
I'll buy dinner.
Really?
Then should we have an icy cold beer there?
I don't think we should have beer with the kids being here.
We'll just go first.
You want to do that?
Why don't you have dinner before you go?
I have to stop by somewhere. You two should just enjoy.
Bye.
Does your uncle like our teacher?
Yes.
I wish the two of them could date...
but my uncle has no dating experience and is very slow in that field.
He's been writing her love letters every morning for over a year now
and still hasn't been able to even deliver them to her.
Really?
Yes.
I wish my uncle could stop being just my guardian
and start living a happy life with someone he cherishes.
[A camera that can stop time]
It's mostly all about stories that come out in movies or novels.
I guess it doesn't make sense for a camera like this to even exist.
Gosh!
Oh, you're here now?
Did the date with our teacher go well?
What date?
Uncle, have you heard about a camera that stops time?
A camera that stops time...
There is no such thing like that!
And why are you still here at this hour?
Do you not know about how boys and girls should sit separately?
Go home!
Even the high school kids are dating, and what am I doing with my life?
I guess it didn't go too well with our teacher.
It was a good chance, I just wish he did better.
The time I spent with you yesterday
truly made my heart flutter.
Oh, maybe this is a little too much.
- Rewrite. Rewrite. - Uncle!
Jeez.
We were supposed to go to the School for the Blind today
did you forget?
Get ready quickly!
[Seeing your chest about to explode yesterday made me truly happy.]
Where are you?
Just came out to take pictures for the first time in a while.
Don't get sidetracked and study well.
What are you doing here at this hour?
I'm cutting, of course, what else would it be?
Wow, it's so nice here.
Then you learned photography from your father?
Yes, I heard he taught me since I was a toddler.
It was an early education.
So you were drawn to photography because of a guy and not a girl...
You think so?
I guess that's right.
Is it a lot different than taking pictures with your phone?
I think it all looks the same to me.
No matter how advanced the technology is
there are three things that can never surpass the human hands.
Fishing, books, and photography.
Why is that?
Because a person has to physically do it with their hands
in order to truly enjoy it.
But why do you always wear sunglasses?
Is it really because it's too bright?
Soon I am not going to be able to see anything.
Why?
I have a disease called retinitis pigmentosa.
My vision gets worse and worse
then one day, I'll lose my sight completely.
Then that's why you had all that braille in the studio?
My uncle put those up for me so I can prepare myself for it.
My uncle is an extreme parent at times.
You love taking pictures.
But why does it have to be your eyes?
It must be upsetting.
Well, in the beginning I wondered...
"Why does this have to happen to me?" And thought it was unfair and was upset.
So I even thought about committing suicide.
But if it's something I can't change...
then just being upset about it was only my loss.
So if it's something I have to deal with...
then I decided to overcome it as fast as possible.
Honestly I used to think I was the unhappiest person alive.
But seeing you makes me realize how pathetic I was.
It's not pathetic.
But I do give an understanding of life to people with just my existence.
I am just way too charming.
This is the end of my free time.
I just registered for the School for the Blind today.
Are you worried?
A little.
Do you know what my mom used to say the most?
What is it?
People's happiness is equivalent to how thankful they are.
That's why I'm always thankful.
Because I'm going to become very happy.
Can you give me a little bit of your time?
Okay.
