I want to know—what is a hundred-year life really like?

When A-Min meets his great-grandmother, she is already one hundred years old. Old enough that death could come at any time—but she isn’t afraid. She often jokes, “Best if I die in my sleep.”

A-Min, however, is scared—scared that one day, great-grandma might pass away when it’s just the two of them at home. So, he stays close. He keeps her company. He watches her nap, chats with her, shops with her at the market, even walks with her as she returns a sacred image to an old friend—her quiet way of saying goodbye.

Again and again, great-grandma asks, “A-Min, how much longer do you think I’ll live?”
And every time, A-Min wonders: what does it really mean to live a hundred years?
Before he can find the answer, great-grandma is already up and walking forward again, full of life.

Through these moments, A-Min begins to understand: with courage, with love, every single day is worth living fully.
