In the EP01 script, the scene in which Young-ro and Seol-hee worry over Jeong-min, who’s out protesting, has a bit more dialogue and segues into a scene in which Young-ro pens another letter to her brother, only to fold it into a paper airplane and launch it at Mt Ogong as the chase scene unfolds.

Young-ro(internally) How could they not even give him my letters? Not knowing that, I just resented my brother! (breathing a heavy sigh) Don’t worry about me. I’ve now forgotten all about the man I met this past spring. The reason I’ve not gone on dates is because they’re boring, not because of him. Oppa! I miss you. I wish I could see you just once!
