00:00On the 10th spring after her death, the young woman returned to the world of the living from

00:04her own grave. However, she found her tomb overgrown with weeds and completely abandoned.

00:09Clearly, no one had visited it in a long time, even though her parents and brother were still

00:13alive. Why hadn't anyone come to see her? Not even once. She had returned to the human world

00:17just to uncover the truth. Ten years earlier, the young woman had died of cancer. By the second year

00:22after her passing, no one visited her grave anymore. She couldn't believe that the family

00:26who had once loved her so deeply had forgotten her so soon. That's why, during her years in the

00:31underworld, she worked tirelessly, accumulating spiritual merit. She even earned enough to

00:36reincarnate into a wealthy family. But she rejected it all. She used every merit she had to obtain a

00:41temporary permit to return just to confirm whether her family had truly forgotten her. The permit to

00:46return came with three strict rules. First, she could not lose it. If she did, her soul would be

00:51scattered forever. Second, she could not reveal herself or be recognized by her family. Third, it would

00:57only last seven days. After that, she would be forced back to the underworld. Furthermore, her tomb

01:02was the only portal between the two worlds. The young woman remembered well the day of her burial. Her

01:07parents and brother had been heartbroken. That's why, when the messengers of the underworld came for

01:12her, she refused to go and chose instead to remain behind and earn merit. With that merit, she could

01:17appear in her family's dreams. And during the first year, she succeeded several times. But from the

01:22second year onward, she was never able to visit their dreams again. She assumed they had completely

01:26forgotten her. What she didn't know was that her family had never forgotten her. That very day was

01:31the anniversary of her death. Her mother, after much hesitation, had suggested visiting the cemetery.

01:36But her father firmly refused. They were afraid of reigniting her soul's attachment to the living

01:42world. After her death, she had appeared in her mother's dreams many times, expressing how

01:47much she missed her home. In one dream, she told her mother that she was working endlessly to gather

01:51merit, so she could return to see them again. Her mother, heartbroken, had consulted her great

01:56uncle, an elder over 100 years old and an expert in spiritual matters. He warned them that if their

02:01daughter didn't let go of her attachments, she would never be able to reincarnate. So the family

02:05made a painful decision to erase all traces of her existence from their home, hoping it would help her

02:10let go and rest in peace. Now, back in the human world, the young woman saw her parents at the

02:15market. Her mother recognized her immediately, but in the next instant, a golden light enveloped

02:20her body and erased the recognition, part of the permit's effect that prevented the family

02:24from seeing her true appearance. The young woman noticed that they had bought crab, something she

02:28had always hated in life and was never eaten at home. Saddened, she thought they had truly forgotten

02:32her. As she turned to leave, she dropped her wallet without noticing. Her mother picked it up and

02:37called out to her. Just as a runaway, a tricycle rushed toward her. The young woman didn't hesitate.

02:41She pushed her mother out of the way to save her. Nervous, the mother tended to her wounds with a

02:46bandage and, upon opening the wallet to return it, found a family photo. To her surprise, the image

02:52glowed and morphed into a solo portrait of the young woman. She thought she was imagining things,

02:57but grateful for the rescue, she invited the girl to their home. The young woman accepted, hoping to

03:02see if anything of hers still remained. But upon arriving, she was disappointed to see no sign of her

03:07past life. What she didn't know was that all her belongings were carefully stored in her old room.

03:11Her mother told her that her brother was now engaged and that the house's decorations reflected

03:15his fiancé's preferences. The mother pointed to a wall and mentioned that a painting once hung there.

03:20The young woman vividly remembered that it was one of her award-winning drawings,

03:23proudly framed by her father, who always said that wall would only display his daughter's work.

03:28But now, her mother spoke happily about another woman's tastes. The young woman,

03:32filled with sorrow, said she needed to leave. She later went to a bar, intending to wait until

03:37midnight to return to the other world forever. That was when two men cornered her and tried to

03:41force her to drink. She resisted, until suddenly, her brother appeared before her.
