Spoilers ahead
Seoul, the present day frames a quiet, bittersweet drama about memory, choice, and the spaces we inhabit. Architect Lee Seung-min is approached by Yang Seo-yeon, played by Han Ga-in, to design a new house on the site of her 30-year-old family home on Jeju island. He agrees reluctantly but cannot conjure a design that truly pleases her, so they decide to renovate and expand the existing house. The project pulls them into long days and evenings together in Jeju, much to the growing annoyance of his fiancée, Go Joon-hee, who is preparing to marry him and move to the United States. Tension, longing, and the pull of the past begin to thread through their days as the present grows crowded with memory and possibility.
