00:00Is that why you went to nursing school to go abroad?
00:03I went to nursing school because I didn't want to repeat what happened to my father.
00:08In case of emergency, I hope that somehow...
00:11You have a medical knowledge.
00:13There was a little struggle. I hope that even if we did CPR,
00:17you wouldn't think twice to run him to the hospital because you have an emergency fund.
00:25You have a connection.
00:27When you went abroad, was your family struggling?
00:32Little by little, it got better.
00:35Because my second brother went abroad first before me.
00:40Then, in 2015, I went abroad in 2014.
00:45In 2015, we were just talking.
00:50He said to me,
00:52Am I going to be like this for the rest of my life?
00:54He was one of the D.H.s in other countries.
00:57D.H.?
00:58Dating Holdaper?
00:59No, Domestic Helper.
01:01Ah, Domestic Helper.
01:02Because our neighbor was a D.H.
01:04Dating Holdaper.
01:05But now, he has a factory.
01:07He has a new house.
01:08Yes. He stole everything.
01:12He asked himself,
01:13Am I going to be a Domestic Helper for the rest of my life?
01:15Yes.
01:16Because he's also struggling.
01:17Yes.
01:18That's why you decided to help him.
01:19That's why you went abroad to be a nurse.
01:21Yes.
01:22Because it's a better opportunity.
01:23Yes.
01:24So, my question earlier was,
01:26Your current state of life,
01:28you said, is different from 10 years ago
01:30because your life is now better?
01:33It reached a point where it was better.
01:36But the trials didn't end.
01:40In 2019, my second brother had an accident.
01:44My second brother and the one who followed me have already graduated.
01:49So, I felt at that time,
01:51I felt at that time,
01:54Hey, it's almost time.
01:56He's almost a graduate.
01:57He could help you.
01:59Yes.
02:00That's why he had an accident.
02:01Yes.
02:02So, your brother's ascension was delayed.
02:05Because if everyone would ascend,
02:07it would be easier to help.
02:08Yes.
02:09And he could also rest.
02:10He was already paralyzed.
02:12He could also save money.
02:13That's why the money would go to your brother's medical needs.
02:18So, it was like,
02:20I really ran out of money.
02:21You ran out of money.
02:22I ran out of money.
02:23But,
02:24that's why I did it.
02:26Because I didn't want it to happen.
02:27I didn't want to run out of money.
02:29Yes.
02:30My brother was alive. Thank you.
02:31I said, I'll just earn the money.
02:33Yes.
02:34But in my first years,
02:36as of W,
02:37I suddenly thought,
02:38When will I graduate?
02:43Where?
02:44As a breadwinner.
02:47Why did you want to graduate as a breadwinner?
02:51Ah,
02:53I was just asking myself.
02:57In my first months abroad,
03:00Ah.
03:01Now, do you want to graduate?
03:03Sorry.
03:04Of course.
03:05Okay.
03:06Now, my question is,
03:07when will I graduate?
03:09Why?
03:10We want to understand.
03:11What is he good at?
03:12Because there are a lot of breadwinners already.
03:14They are okay.
03:15Like me now, right?
03:16Yes.
03:17Even though I didn't graduate as a breadwinner,
03:20it's okay because
03:21I have a lot of blessings that I can share with my family.
03:25You can still do it.
03:26For others,
03:27they are really tired and it's really hard.
03:29You,
03:30that's why you want to graduate.
03:31I want to graduate because
03:33I started 10 years ago.
03:36I'm old.
03:39I don't remember what happened to me
03:42because I was trapped in the
03:45responsibility that I was promised
03:48to be a breadwinner.
03:50Now, I want to,
03:52maybe I can,
03:54You, yourself.
03:55I want to do
03:57what I want to do in life.
03:59What do you want to do?
04:02The,
04:03ah,
04:04I want to be responsible for my siblings
04:09so that my mom won't think of them anymore.
04:12Because if it's just me and my mom,
04:14I will promise her.
04:17If my dad dies,
04:18it's up to you until you feel it.
04:20Can they be responsible now?
04:22For now,
04:23not yet.
04:26But I can see that they are trying.
04:29That's why recently,
04:30I've been venting to them.
04:31I'm telling them,
04:33if you need support,
04:35as much as I can,
04:37just say what I want from you.
04:42From you,
04:44because if I'm tired of directing your life,
04:50maybe by this time,
04:54you can direct your own life.
04:57That's the problem.
04:59That's why I'm tired.
05:01Because you were trying to direct their lives.
05:04You didn't have to do that.
05:06Don't...
05:09That's the hard part.
05:12We have to fix other people's lives.
05:15Right?
05:16No.
05:17We don't have to fix other people's lives
05:20because they own it.
05:22They should fix it.
05:24You can help.
05:25You can help.
05:26But you have to do it yourself.
05:29That's the hard part.
05:30That's why you can't direct your life.
05:33Because you're busy directing other people's lives.
05:36But you have a direction.
05:37You can't push it.
05:39Because you're pushing the life
05:41that they should be doing.
05:43Their life.
05:44Right?
05:45There are people who are not able.
05:47That's why you need to be there for them.
05:50For example,
05:51they had an accident,
05:53they were really disgraced.
05:54They had feelings.
05:55Even if they want to, they can't.
05:56That's why you need to be there
05:58almost all the time.
06:00That's okay, right?
06:01You can say,
06:02I'll take care of it.
06:03But it's hard because
06:08it's hard
06:10to take the responsibility
06:15that you're the one
06:16who's responsible for the life of a lazy person.
06:20Right?
06:21And you shouldn't be the one
06:23who's responsible.
06:25You're not responsible
06:28for the life of a lazy person.
06:32I'm not saying that your siblings are lazy,
06:34right?
06:35Give them a chance
06:37to be afraid
06:39to stand up,
06:40to be hurt,
06:42to move.
06:46It's hard
06:47to start.
06:49Just like you,
06:50you went to other countries.
06:52You went through a lot.
06:54You went through a lot.
06:55Actually,
06:57they're slowly
06:59changing.
07:00My TWD siblings
07:01have a small business.
07:03They're starting.
07:05But as a sibling,
07:07why don't you
07:09give them a chance?
07:11Why?
07:12That's my question.
07:13Why are you so unfair
07:15to my siblings?
07:17Because if I feel like I'm going to give up,
07:20why don't you just say
07:22good luck?
07:23Why don't you go to them?
07:25Life is not unfair
07:27to your siblings
07:28because they have you.
07:30They're so lucky.
07:35But,
07:36you can only do so much,
07:38right?
07:39It's right to support
07:41your siblings
07:42because you said
07:43they didn't want to
07:44because
07:45they're lazy.
07:46You got into an accident.
07:47They don't want to rely on you
07:49but we can't do anything about it.
07:52Life is really hard.
07:53Life is hard.
07:54That's why they rely on you.
07:57But you can only do so much,
07:59right?
08:00You can really think about
08:01the happiness of your loved ones
08:02but it doesn't mean
08:03you're going to forget
08:04your happiness
08:05just like what's happening to you.
08:07It's like,
08:08I want this
08:09but I don't want it anymore.
08:13Right?
08:14It's like,
08:15are you really happy?
08:16Or not?
08:17Because in the end,
08:18I hope you're happy.
08:19That's important.
08:20Right?
08:21I hope you're happy.
08:22I hope you find
08:23what makes you happy.
08:24Go there
08:25and get it
08:26because that's what's for you.
08:27That's what makes you happy.
08:33Because I feel like
08:34it's already full.
08:35And you deserve it.
08:36A lot of people are taking care of you.
08:39How's your mental health?
08:44I have a friend
08:45who doesn't know my family.
08:46I have a friend
08:47who sometimes says,
08:50I plan to go home this year.
08:52Really?
08:53I plan to go home.
08:57When I go home,
09:00I'll ask for a consultation.
09:02You'll ask for a consultation?
09:03I'll ask for a consultation.
09:06Are you saving up for that?
09:08Actually,
09:09there should be some money.
09:10But...
09:11Don't worry about that.
09:12We'll take care
09:13of where you're going.
09:14Yes.
09:15We'll give you
09:16a consultation.
09:18A psychiatrist
09:19or psychologist
09:20will tell you
09:21where you want to go.
09:23Right?
09:24Because if
09:25you have someone
09:26by your side
09:27and you're worried
09:28that you might get infected,
09:29it's like
09:30it hurts your teeth.
09:31Right?
09:32If you keep it for a long time,
09:33it'll get worse.
09:34It'll get worse.
09:35That's why you need
09:36to go to the dentist
09:37as soon as possible.
09:38So now,
09:39you need a consultation.
09:40If you think
09:41you really need it,
09:42let's do it.
09:43We'll help you.
09:44That's a good therapy.
09:46That's how I am.
09:48Yes.
09:49That's a good therapy.
09:51It'll help.
09:52It'll help you
09:54to process
09:55what you're feeling.
09:56Because it's like
09:57it's so heavy.
09:58It's so tight.
10:00There are so many bars.
10:02Even if you cry,
10:03it won't come out.
10:05Right?
10:06That's important.
10:07We'll help you
10:08to process it.
10:09Okay?
10:10Look at her words.
10:11It's not coming out
10:12completely.
10:13She's stopping it.
10:15So you can tell a story.
10:16Because I'm sure
10:17you have things
10:18you want to say
10:19but you can't say
10:20to a lot of people.
10:21Yes.
10:22What else
10:23will make you feel better?
10:27When she asked me that,
10:29there's only one thing
10:30I remember.
10:31I want her
10:33to watch movies.
10:37Movies.
10:38Perfect.
10:39Right?
10:40Sometimes,
10:41it's like that.
10:42Yes.
10:43Because she can't
10:44watch movies anymore.
10:45You want it now.
10:46When do you want
10:47to watch movies?
10:48Of course,
10:49I want to watch your show.
10:51Your movie.
10:53I might cry.
10:54Open your Bluetooth.
10:55I'll send it to you.
10:56Don't do that.
10:57Don't do that.
10:58You're ahead of me.
10:59Don't do that.
11:00Oh my.
11:01Some people
11:02make fun of me.
11:04It's a simple scene.
11:06But I don't remember
11:08being with my family
11:10watching it
11:12on a big screen.
11:15Nothing.
11:16I don't remember that.
11:18It's simple for others.
11:20But for me,
11:21it's a gift from my mom
11:23for us to watch it together.
11:27We'll do that.
11:28You know,
11:29my movie is on December 25.
11:32But I want you
11:33to watch it now.
11:36After this,
11:37there will be
11:38a lot of good shows.
11:39Yes.
11:40Watch it now.
11:41I don't want you
11:42to delay your deserves.
11:44Then,
11:45watch it again on Christmas.
11:46Join us
11:47in our black screenings.
11:48Bring your whole family.
11:49We'll invite you.
11:51Okay?
11:53So you can watch
11:54the story of your life.
11:57Because on December 25,
11:59you'll watch the story
12:00of your life.
12:02And we're all hoping
12:04that after watching
12:05that movie,
12:06all the hugs
12:07and kisses
12:08you'll give to yourself,
12:09all the kisses you'll give,
12:11the gratitude
12:12you'll hear,
12:13that's what we expect
12:15to have an effect
12:16on the audience.
12:17So,
12:18watch my movie.
12:19I promise.
12:20That's a promise.
12:21But before that,
12:22I'll watch your movie.
12:23Then,
12:24eat something delicious.
12:25And then,
12:26you're fond of...
12:27She's fond of
12:28remembering
12:29the beautiful moments
12:30in her life.
12:31You said that,
12:32right?
12:33We'll give you a camera.
12:34There.
12:35Wow.
12:37She's fond of
12:38taking pictures
12:39but she doesn't have
12:40a camera.
12:41That's why we bought
12:42a new digital camera.
12:45Wow.
12:46One terabyte hard drive
12:48is included.
12:49So that you can
12:50store a lot of
12:51happy memories.
12:53So that when you're
12:54feeling down,
12:55you can go back
12:56and your happiness
12:57will come back.
12:59Take a picture
13:00when you watch the movie
13:01later.
13:02And when you eat
13:03outside, okay?
13:05Then,
13:06we'll make sure
13:07that you have
13:08a delicious night.
13:09Good
13:10and midnight.
13:13Take a picture of that
13:14while you're eating.
13:15Do you want that?
13:16So that you don't
13:17think about
13:18what I'm going to prepare
13:19for you.
13:20Because it's also
13:21my mom's birthday.

14:28It's delicious.
14:29You should watch TV.
14:30TV.
