I sell lanterns at the ferry landing. I remember yesterday better than anyone.

Lantern RiverbankThe Thousandth Summer

There's one lantern left over again today, the spot for the name still blank. It was left over yesterday too, and the day before, but whenever I bring up yesterday the grown-ups just laugh.

MugyeongHey, sell that one to me. I'll pay you next time.
SaniYou said that yesterday too. When's next time?
AyameDon't sell that one, keep it aside. Its owner is coming late.

North Bridge CheckpointThe Thousandth Summer

They said I can't sell lanterns at the North Bridge, so I sat by the vinegar-water barrel instead. The constable mister didn't say a word, just left me some dinner and went.

Choi MudolAs long as you ate. Don't go down under the bridge.
SaniMister, you gave me dinner yesterday too.
SohaSan-i, don't sit by the vinegar water too long. It'll sting your eyes.

That same lantern went to that spot yesterday too. I told you the exact same thing yesterday.

Mister, you said the same thing yesterday, twelve wet ones.

I sold exactly a hundred, that's right. I'm bad with figures, but I can count to a hundred.

Do you know my name too? San-i. The one who sells lanterns at the landing.
