Bak Minu is a successful architect. He is satisfied and content with his life, though he lives alone, having sent his wife to live in America with their daughter. One day, he receives a note from the woman who was his first love. Recalling the past, he tries to find the village where the two of them grew up, but discovers it has long since vanished, having been razed for redevelopment. Meanwhile, Jeong Uhui, a young theater director, lives in a semi-basement room and pursues a life of art, staging plays she likes. She struggles to make ends meet, however, and must work part-time at a convenience store. She tries her best not to give up theater, but it is not easy.
