With so many tears in my eyes how can I read the subtitles

This episode gives us a bit of stasis, albeit a sad pause. Ongsa finallly knows that his love is not un-requited, and now we wait to see how Ongsa is going to deal with everything he's learned. The episode is emotionally powerfull because it combines then-Ongsa's sadness at loosing now-Soon with his sadness at having to forgo loving now-Soon. One scene is particularly emotionally charged: Soon wakes up crying as he recalls now-Ongsa's accident and coma and is consoled by then-Ongsa, and shortly after Ongsa cries at both now-Soon's departure and the prospect of forgoing a relationship with then-Soon. The power of the scene comes from combining a concrete loss (now-Ongsa is dying - now-Soon is going to vanish) with the harder to imagine loss of forgoing a future relationship.
