Wide shot of the bedroom in grey morning light, in a pseudo-historical fantasy nobility setting (NOT modern). Joon-Ho is in bed, propped up slightly on pillows — pale, bandaging visible at his midsection. His face is toward the ceiling, eye

TOP: Joon-Ho sitting up slightly in bed, will document in his hands. Reading it for the fourth time. His face is more focused than at the lawyer's office — no longer defensive. Just reading. BOTTOM: Close-up on the left margin of the will d

TOP: Joon-Ho in bed, will document lifted toward the grey window light, both hands on the pages. His face is very still, the expression of someone processing something significant. BOTTOM: Close-up on the document held up to the light — the

TOP: The cover page of the will, held to the grey window light. At the bottom, the will-author's signature — neat, careful, a name we haven't been told. Below that, in a corner, lighter: a second signature, older. Below that: a third, even

TOP: Joon-Ho reaches to the nightstand and picks up Envelope Two, already broken open — he must have opened it before. He unfolds the letter and reads it. His expression: careful, more open than before. BOTTOM: The Envelope Two letter, clos

Full-bleed. The letter from Envelope Three, filling the page completely, rendered as a diegetic document in extreme close-up. The cream paper is thick and slightly textured. In the exact center of the page, in the will-author's precise, com

TOP: Joon-Ho's hands holding the letter open, very still. Both hands steady. The letter's text is just barely visible. MIDDLE: Extreme close-up on Joon-Ho's face reading the one sentence. His expression is unguarded, stripped of performance

TOP: Joon-Ho leaning slightly — the movement costs him because of the wound, a small involuntary tightening at the corner of his eyes — and reaching past the will document to pick up a blank sheet of paper from the small stack on the nights

Full-bleed. Extreme close-up on the cream paper, Joon-Ho's hand visible at the lower edge of the frame, pen touching the page. The first words of his addendum are being written in his handwriting — different from the will-author's. His hand
