Drinks appearing out of thin air were bad enough, but now handkerchiefs? There is no sense to this place and she longs for the sanctity of normal life -- even unhappy normal life -- back in Seoul. At least there things were predictable. At least there, she knew that if he stepped outside she wasn't going to end up at the end of the universe.

She's not a stupid person: Sun knows what she must do to survive: she must fight. But in order to fight she needs to understand her surroundings and this makes no sense. No sense at all.

Skeptically, she accepts the handkerchief and dabs at the corners of her eyes where they sting.

"[How can you promise something like that. How can you say it will be all right. I have nothing here: no family, no friends, no Jin, no money. I'm sitting at a bar drinking champagne with a stranger but only because I thought it was a joke. How does one take care of herself when she has nothing?]"

The question is perfectly valid, especially from someone who has never had to make ends meet before.
