23 " Flowers bloom whenever their eyes meet each other's, and whenever they depend on each other. What does it matter if they wed in the snow or in the rain? They have each other to support and love, and that's all that should matter. "
― Kim Dong Hwa
24 " The heart of a woman is really strange.There are days we long for a fireplace where we can warm our hearts through the night. If we don't have one we grumble, but we take solace in the company of family and friends.Yet through it all, we yearn for that fiery hearth that we can tend to all through the night.Though summer is already here and the summer solstice is just around the corner, my heart aches and I feel cold. I long for that someone and I feel cold...For no apparent reason, I feel cold. "
25 " That's what really frightens me. The greater, the deeper your love, the more difficult it is to handle. "
26 " From the ruckus it was making, you'd guess the sky was getting torn apart. But I suppose it just needed to let out some rain. "
27 " A man who becomes enchanted by the flower's fragrance stays only for a fleeting moment, but a man who comes because of love stays a lifetime. "
28 " In one gourdLonging vaster than the heavensIn one gourdWaiting longer than nightOn top of the gateOn top of the roofA lantern is litA woman dressed and ready eagerly awaits her love. "

29 " Why does a woman pretty herself and make herself presentable? Is it to show a hundred people...or a thousand? It's to show one person. She looks in the mirror to show only one person. She looks at her reflection in the spring for only one person. "
