Leaving

[Goong Scene]

Princess was sick and her parents came to visit her. And suddenly all her appetite and bubbly spirit came back.

After all the commotion, her parents seek Prince Shin’s permission to bring Princess back. But Prince Shin rejected them outright. He says that if this time she falls sick and they bring her back home, does that mean that next time she falls sick again, she will need to go back home to recuperate? Princess might have been looked after by them for the past 19 years. However they are no longer Princess' guardians. The person who should look after her and protect her is her husband, your son-in-law. Thus he cannot allow them to bring her home.

After some brain processing, I realized how important this theme – LEAVING signifies. And I concluded that only by leaving will one learn more and grow up.

After 6 years of primary school, we leave our primary school to proceed further in our education. Break time is no longer play time. Then 4 years later we left our secondary school. And this time we feel more with regards to parting and farewell. 2-3 years later we left our junior college or other institution. And we realized that more and more responsibilities seem to be laid on our shoulders.

Then in our working life, I realized that one has to leave to learn more. Whether it is leaving the company or leaving the current post i.e. being promoted, the action alone will allow you to widen your sights.

Thus Princess has to leave her home sweet home, to grow up and take on new responsibilities. Leaving is actually for one’s good too.
