I watched it again and I still feel like that was what he was asking the hypnotist to help him forget. The ending scene in the 2003 version within WooJin Lee's apartment was around 30 minutes. I can kind of understand those but it seems a bit single-minded of him and/or simple, maybe.Also, did the final hypnosis work on the protagonist?
