Justin Lange Jan 03 2020 11:36 pm Is the soundtrack or any soundtrack information available?

Lil Feb 17 2016 7:13 am Two teachers fall in love (Young-soo and Mi-yun). Mi-yun is married and when her husband returns, she leaves her lover and is involved in a car accident along with her husband and her daughter. Her lover is roaming the city, depressed until he meet another woman. There are two Mi-yuns here, the lover who breaks up with Young-Soo and another teacher at the school, who seems to be interested in Young-Soo but he is not interested in her. This is what I watched so far, it is much clearer than the summary here.

fun-lugha Mar 05 2013 1:16 pm The plot summary is just confusing that the story doesn't sound too appealing...maybe someone else will summarize it better (minus major spoilers of course!)

rina dens Jun 01 2011 8:25 am the story kinda ironic, heart wrenching and required lots of attention to understand the plot, still it's worth watching.

Anne Salvador Jan 02 2011 5:34 am A l'attention de Monsieur Jeong Seong Il, Somptueuse bande annonce. Pellicule long-métrage en Noir et Blanc, digne d'un Chef- d'Oeuvre. La grandeur de votre Oeuvre cinématographique est la douceur poétique incarnée par de Grands acteurs dans un quotidien capital et difficile. Un vrai Café ... Merci
