00:00I kicked over my grandma's jar, and even threw her only pair of shoes into the chimney.
00:04Without shoes, she had to work barefoot in the mountains.
00:06Her eyesight wasn't good.
00:08She asked me to help her thread a needle, but I showed my impatience,
00:11deliberately pulled the thread longer, and told her not to bother me while I played games.
00:16It was my first time visiting grandma's home in the countryside.
00:19Because my mom was in debt, she had no choice but to leave me with grandma.
00:22When grandma tried to touch my head, I turned away with disgust.
00:25After seeing my mom off, grandma reached for my hand to walk me home,
00:29but I shook her off, and almost hit her.
00:31When we got home, grandma brought out the candy she had been saving for me.
00:35I disliked it, so I picked up the chocolate I had brought instead.
00:38No matter how I acted, grandma always stayed quietly by my side,
00:42and cleaned up the mess I left behind.
00:44One day, my game console suddenly ran out of power.
00:47I asked grandma for money to buy batteries.
00:49She turned her pockets inside out, but found nothing.
00:51Later, while she was napping, I stole her hairpin,
00:54hoping to exchange it for money to buy batteries.
00:56But in that remote mountain village, there weren't any batteries for my console.
01:00So I tried to trade the hairpin for snacks instead.
01:03The shopkeeper recognized it immediately as grandma's, and scolded me.
01:07Grandma didn't get angry with me for stealing her hairpin.
01:09She used sign language to ask me what I wanted for dinner.
01:12She was mute.
01:13I picked up a flyer from the house and told her I wanted fried chicken.
01:16So grandma took the herbs she had dug up,
01:18and went to town to trade for money to buy the chicken.
01:21After some time, heavy rain began to fall.
01:23Grandma didn't take shelter.
01:24She walked slowly through the rain, back home, carrying a live chicken.
