The omnibus film is a staple in the East Asian film industry with Acoustic tackling a number of different genres but still keeping music at its heart.

Episode 1: Broccoli sees a female, singer-songwriter who suffers from a
rare disease where she can only survive on ramen noodles. She is rejected
by all the record labels and must decide what her last song will be.

Episode 2: Bakery Attack is based on the short story by Haruki Murakami
and sees two starving musicians looking to sell their guitars but instead
they are re-inspired by a local baker.

Episode 3: Unlock is set in a future where music has ceased to exist.
A couple set about to access an iPhone, now an old relic, yet still holds
music inside which holds sentimental value.

The film marries an indie film about music with real life K-Pop stars with
Broccoli featuring Shin Se-kyung, Bakery Attack with CN Blue’s Lee Jong-hyun and Kang Min-hyuk, and finally a romance between 2AM’s Im Seul-ong and Baek Jin-hee. This omnibus film is a fantastic piece to showcase
the budding artistic talent of the popular K-Pop stars and a great opportunity for any fans of the talent to watch.
