The movie begins as Jeong In returns to her hometown, “Pak Ha Village”. Wounded and weary, Jeong In can’t let her guard down even there. The villagers look down on her and threaten her. However, when Hye Jung moves to the village, the atmosphere begins to change. As she doesn’t engage in farming and lives a completely different lifestyle, the villagers see Hye Jung’s with disdain. From that moment on, the intensityof the movie rises sharply. As Jeong In and Hye Jung confront those who try to harm them, in order to find their own inner strength, the satisfaction of the progress is amplified. Starting with realistic landscapes, the flow of this story of women refusing to be passive embarking on a journey is strangely captivating.
