Without knowing it, two former lovers simultaneously take the same journey in the region of Kangwon in the north-west of the country. Accompanied by two friends, Ji-sook meets a policeman there to help her forget about Sang-won. Sang-won himself,after applying half-heartedly for a university job, jumps at the proposition of a friend to give his spouse and child the slip. Without wishing it, as if by power of simple repetition, Ji-sook and Sang-won meet again. (AT)
