■"The One Who Laughs Last" version
The protagonist is a hardworking and competitive long-distance runner. The result of coming in second leaves her so filled with regret that she barely hears the voices around her. She desperately tries not to show it, but in her mind, negative thoughts replay in the face of an unacceptable reality. However, she herself puts an end to those thoughts, switches her mindset to "I will be the one who laughs last," and enters a world of imagination.
