The Country Scholar Who Conquered the Capital - Episode 5

While viewing rooms in a new house, Willa—who recalls cramped orphanage and dorm life—chooses a quiet upstairs room. Yasmin, her friend, offers Willa her own room, but Yasmin's mother objects, accusing Willa of taking Yasmin’s space. Willa refuses pity, says she'll study and support herself, and accepts the upstairs room, allowed to redecorate. In an awkward, emotional moment someone asks, "Could you call me... Mom?" The question shocks the household and leaves whether Willa can truly join the family unsettled.
