==Plot==<br />
80 years old, CHOI is a nearly deaf farmer with a limp. He has an old ox that he’s worked for 30 years,<br />
and the ox aged no less than 40. However, there’s something special about the way Old CHOI treats this<br />
ox, which is so worn-out that it might drop dead any minute. The old man is single-mindedly focused on<br />
the ox, instinctively turning to the beast when he hears the cowbell even though he’s nearly deaf. One<br />
spring day, however, Old CHOI learns that his ox only has a year to live, which greatly troubles him.<br />
