A cigarette outside the Incheon Airport rekindles the affection of two lovers: a woman returning from Canada, and a man sending his daughter to study aboard. Feeling a romantic thrill, the pair meet again and gently retrace the memories they shared in the past. What they feel instead is a deep-rooted tiredness with life, stressed out by business failure, caring for ageing parents, divorce, separation by death... Slowly tracing the passing of time, Park Ki-yong muses over the path that life has taken, mourning the loss of love and dream by life's meandering vacillations.
