As a newlywed, Tae does just that every night with Bitna. And the girl, who was either too good or knew how to keep her pain a secret by herself. Bitna withstood that during sex with Tae in the early days of this marriage. Bitna closes her eyes as she agonizes over the pain and tries to suggest to herself how Tae feels about it. He forgets the pain and survives until the last moment when Tae gets his release.
When Tae sees Bitna walking over, she always looks calm and has a sweet face. Tae knows Bitna is fine, and he is relieved. At least Tae hasn't seen any strange signs since the terrible wedding day. Bitna is no longer hurt or anything. He looks healthy and beautiful, even more beautiful.
