I intuitively realized that the person on the phone was Ms. Mijeong from

         Wonju .“ Private Kim , don’t say anything and change the phone call to

         me .” I picked up the phone .
         Ms. Mijeong ... .

         “I ... I know I shouldn't call BOQ , but ... Mr. Ki-seon hasn't contacted

         me for a long time, so I have no choice ....” He said in a small, slightly t
         rembling voice . That’s right ,,,,,

         When a soldier dies, they usually only contact their immediate family ,

         and there was no reason to even contact their lover . Perhaps Lieutenan

         t Jeong Ki-seon's house was also unaware of Mi-jeong's existence .
         I can't bear to say anything , He said, “ I will contact you again, so plea

         se leave your contact information .... ” Then Mi-jeong said that Ki-seo

         n knew her phone number . I told him not to contact me here because th
         ere was a reason , and to give me my phone number .

         After getting the phone number, I couldn't muster up the courage to call

         her again and tell her the miserable news .


         I quickly found the belongings used by Lieutenant Jeong Ki-seon and fin

         ished organizing them . Since I was scheduled to go on vacation in a wee

         k , I thought I would visit him in person, talk to him , and give him some
         keepsakes . While I was on vacation, I called Mijeong and decided to me

         et at a meeting place in Wonju. I had to take a train from Cheongnyangni

         , which was supposed to pass through Wonju . I got off at Wonju for a w

         hile and got on the train with the plan to meet Mijeong and tell her .
         After landing in Wonju, I went to the meeting place . Even without havin

         g to look for Mijeong, I was able to recognize her at a glance .

         She was a small and cute girl with white skin and quite a beauty .
         I sat across from her and drank a glass of water first .

         But I couldn't even make eye contact . You have lost your courage .

         After waiting for a while , I made up my mind and told her in detail ever
         ything that had happened so far .

         I also gave her the keepsakes I had carefully packed .                                       QR
