==Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©==
Seung-Chul is a North Korean defector who lives in a crumbling neighborhood on the outskirts of Seoul. His roommate Kyung-Chul ([[Jin Yong-Wook (1975)|Jin Yong-Wook]]) is also a North Korean defector.

Seung-Chul works for a shady boss plastering posters of sex shops throughout the city. He is frequently short changed on his pay. The sole pleasure Seung-Chul seems to have found in Seoul is a woman named Young-Sook ([[Kang Eun-Jin]] ). Young-Sook sings in the choir at the same church Seung-Chul attends, but she doesn't even notice he exists and Seung-Chul doesn't have the fortitude to introduce himself. Nevertheless, in his free time, Seung-Chul follows Young-Sook around town and, one evening, he follows her to a karaoke bar where she apparently works at night.

Seung-Chul then applies for a job at the karaoke bar with Young-Sook's father (who owns the karaoke bar). Seung-Chul will make only 30,000 won a day in his part-time job, but he will get closer to Young-Sook. Days later when Young-Sook notices Seung-Chul at church she suddenly feels a sense of awkwardness. Meanwhile, rival poster layers constantly harass and beat-up Seung-Chul. Seung-Chul's roommate Kyung-Chul, who works as broker sending money between South and North Korean families, also finds himself in trouble after double-crossing clients. Finally, Seung-Chul's only friend in South Korea, a stray white puppy, goes missing ...

==Notes==
# "The Journals of Musan" is based on a friend of director [[Park Jung-Bum]]. Because [[Park Jung-Bum]] knows all the idiosyncrasies of his friend, he decided to cast himself as the male lead.
# When director [[Park Jung-Bum]] interviewed police officers in Seoul who helped North Korean defectors, their personalities reminded [[Park Jung-Bum]] of his father so [[Park Jung-Bum]] cast his father [[Park Young-Duk]] in the role of Detective Park.
