Sang-woo (Yoo Ji-tae) is a sound engineer who lives with his grandmother, his widowed father and his sister. One winter, he meets a radio DJ, Eun-su (Lee Young-ae). Sang-woo and Eun-su go on a trip to find sounds of nature for her radio show. And the two become close, spending the night together at Eun-su’s apartment. Sang-woo finds himself falling fast and hard for Eun-su. Their relationship begins in the winter, progresses through the following spring but begins to fall apart in the summer.

As was clear from his first film, Christmas in August (1998), Hur Jin-ho possesses a remarkable talent for portraying subtle, unspoken emotions, complemented by his modest and sensitive film style.
