Plot summary
On holiday after final exams, Sangwon, an indecisive college student in Seoul, avoids a walk with his older brother and takes a side street, where he comes across Yongsil, a former girlfriend, at the optician's store where she works. Unsettled about resuming the relationship, he postpones their meeting and spends her shift in a theater watching a play. In a second strand, Tongsu, a rootless filmmaker, has grown fixated on a short film by a former classmate and on the actress who appears in it. Leaving a cinema, Tongsu recognizes her and starts to work his way into her company.
