When she regains some consciousness, she finds herself lying on the bed and an oxygen mask over her mouth and nose. Her body sends her signal of aches which she doesn't able to bear. She looks around in an unfamiliar way with her half opened eyes and muttered, "Eun Woo" and before she could say anything she lost her consciousness again. 

After sometimes, as she slowly regains consciousness in the hospital bed, her senses gradually coming back to life, she finds herself surrounded by a flurry of activity. The sterile scent of antiseptic hangs in the air, mingling with the low hum of medical equipment and the soft murmurs of doctors and nurses going about their duties.

Blinking groggily, she tries to make sense of her surroundings, her mind still foggy from the lingering effects of her coma. Turning her head slightly, she takes in the sight of the bustling hospital room, her eyes scanning the faces of the medical professionals gathered around her bedside. Their expressions are a mixture of concern and relief as they monitor her condition, their voices gentle and reassuring as they offer words of encouragement. She struggles to piece together the fragments of her memory, searching for clues to unlock the mystery of her presence in the hospital. But try as she might, her mind draws a blank, leaving her feeling disoriented and overwhelmed by the magnitude of her situation. Sensing her confusion, the doctors and nurses approach her with gentle smiles, their soothing voices providing a lifeline of support in her time of need. Despite the overwhelming uncertainty that lies ahead, she discovers that she is not alone. One of the nurse says to doctor, "We should inform her fiancée." And rushed outside the room.

After two hours, when she completely regains her conscience, a man comes to her in haste and see her in surprise. He leans down to her a little and softening his eyes he asks, "How are you now? Are you okay? I was worried about you. Finally, my prayers are paid off."

She nods in acceptance with a doubt in her eyes. A profound sense of confusion washes over her, leaving her feeling lost and adrift in a sea of uncertainty. He kisses her forehead and says, "You will recover soon now. Don't worry."

Just then, a knock on the door happens and they both watches a detective coming inside. He stands beside the man and say, "I need to ask her some questions, if you allow?"

The man nods and detective begins, "Hello Miss, I am detective Moon Do Yun from Namwon police station, How are you now?"

She says with a straight face, "I think in a good state."

Detective - "Can you tell, what actually happened with you that night?" 

She replies in a low voice, "Sorry detective, but I don't remember anything. I don't know, what happened with me and how I ended up here."

Listening this, both of the man across the room gives her a blank stare. Detective continues, "Yes, the doctor has already informed me about the possibility of your memory loss because you got a severe injury in your brain."

 She asks, "Can you tell, what happened to me?"

Detective - "We found you near the chasm of mount Jirisan in your crashed car with your driver during the night time. Your fiancée called us to inform about your accident and before we could reach there, the driver was already dead because of severe blood loss but you were breathing slowly so we immediately took you to the hospital."

She listens everything carefully and remains silent. The detective, after a moment says, "Okay, So now we are done with your statements. As you don't remember anything so I don't have any question for you. But if you ever got to memorize anything, please don't hesitate to inform us."

With this statement, he greets her and moves out of the room leaving two of them behind. The silence breaks into the room. After a while, he looks cautiously to her and say, "I know you don't remember anything but don't worry about that. We will make the memories again. By the way, I am Kim Taehyung, your fiancée."

She buries her eyes on his face and ask, "Have you also forgotten my name? Because ever since I wake up, you haven't said my name once."
