Does anyone know what the buddha said to them towards the end? Because he said something and they both looked startled and then looked at each other. I thought it was something about them having a long life together, but I'm not sure.
In response to some saying that Pong is dumb in here for not seeing the truth about Bi, I would have to disagree. I think it's realistic. Keep in mind that only a day or two has passed since he's came back and is interacting face to face with Bi. He fell in love with the girl who wrote him the letters through 8 longs years away from home, who gave him encouragement and understanding. He basically put that girl on a pedestal. He's built up this image of that girl (who he wrongly thinks it's Wi) and anything contrary to that image, he would deny strongly. So his choices are: to believe that the Bi he sees (for only a day or two so far) is false or that the 8 years of emotional bonding with his dream girl is a lie. Now if you were a sensible and logical person, what would you believe?
I think when he gets a chance to interact individually with Bi and Wi, he will come to realize that his dream girl can definitely NOT be Wi. Then he will start asking questions and try to find that girl, because someone wrote to him for 8 long years and gave him encouragement and love.
What happened in the old version? I can't remember. How did he start becoming suspicious?
