Growing up in an orphanage, seeing the outside world, the great love of the old doctor, and the final return.
It seems that he has had enough of the cookie-cutter life since he was a child. He doesn't care about the expectations of the old doctor, and he doesn't pay much attention to his medical skills. It seems that the outside world will be very exciting.
There are indeed friends, love, and reality in the apple orchard. But those are not their own, in between, they see their own value and find their own position.
Whatever happens.
Cherish what you have, there is always a place in the world.
