Synopsis

​ Aspiring writer Choi Yeo-young travels to Haenam to write. But no matter how much she walks, chops firewood, or pulls weeds. The deadline approaches without a single word written.

Program Note

​ To what extent should the yearning to create be allowed? Yeo-yeong finds herself in a challenging predicament as she struggles to complete her writing for a contest while visiting Haenam, where Ji-yeon resides. This journey becomes a rare opportunity for her to escape from reality. While she discerns a promising path for Ji-yeon, who seeks inner tranquility, Yeo-yeong herself remains unable to perceive the truth. This film invites introspection, encouraging viewers to examine themselves from a slight distance during times when life's demands relentlessly chase them, obscuring their true essence, or when the significance of commonplace journeys eludes their grasp.
