Synopsis

When a woman loses her husband, she has no time to mourn. Surrounded by stiff hanboks, rigid funeral customs, and the judgmental gaze of her mother-in-law, she dares to fantasize about other men. This musical fantasia blends diverse genres of music and dance — from hip-hop to traditional Korean music to pop songs. A young woman’s desire becomes dangerous in a society bound by Confucian patriarchy. Like Eve, who became aware of her shame after eating the apple, the woman awakens to her own desires and expresses her frustrations and longings through a musical filled with song and dance…
