You should at least let them say goodbye.”
In response, she says, “That’s a burden for the living.” Later, she explains to Ki-Joo that Han Bom has seen her parents die in front of her eyes in a car accident.Therefore, during her lifetime, she went to parties and funerals to give cash gifts so that when she died, Han Bom was not left alone.
