Soh-yun returning home for summer vacation got a call from Min-hwan, who she loved while she was in France. Soh-yun who is heartbroken from the break up with him cannot reject his invitation to come to see him. They meet in an unfamiliar city, Bu-san. There is also another guy named Jae-hyun who silently stands by and waits for Soh-yun who still loves Min-hwan. But Soh-yun cannot make up her mind between these two guys. |

Soh-yun studying abroad has a relationship with Min-hwan, a divorced man and Jae-hyun who really likes Soh-yun. The film is a love triangle between the three of them. Soh-yun is confused between the man who she likes and the other man who likes her. She likes Min-hwan but he is divorced, self-centered and unconcerned. She does not refuse any of Min-hwan's requirements, makes an excuse to see him and accepts an untoward affair with him. Meanwhile, the very faithful Jae-hyun is always waiting for her. The film follows more and more ridiculed Soh-yun in the pursuit of her desire and criticized a falsity and vulgarity of women's blind desire for a man. It composedly reflects the last summer of a woman devoted to her own desires and in the last scene Soh-yun returns to Paris only to remain alone. (KIM Sunah) |
