Kam Jeong-won

The city hums with its usual noise and haste. Unable to keep pace with its restless speed, Se-yeon moves slowly, as if walking through a different time. Every day she brews her tea carefully, hangs her laundry, heads to work, and eats alone. She has a dream, yet never steps into it - only circles around it. Avoiding people's eyes, she goes to the darkened river after sunset and paints. It is the only moment she feels she is reaching toward her dream, the only moment she feels alive. There, in that night river, is someone else besides Se-yeon. By the same river, Jae-woo dreams as well - a dream of making a fortune by selling river sand. They share the same river, share meals, walk the same path, and spend a season together. At the end of summer, Se-yeon and Jae-woo finally come face to face with each other's fragile truths.

After his mother's death, 16-year-old Hyung-ju suspects that his father is not his biological father. A secret paternity test reveals that he is not. Confused, he uses his math skills to figure out his biological father and embarks on a journey with his best friend, Ji-su, to find him.

Hyeonjae was a war correspondent who quit due to his trauma of war. Thinking of the special communication he had with plants as a kid, he returns to his grandfather's arboretum. At that very place, he gains the courage to live on and decides to run a plant café in the city. To his customers who seek him out with their stories and plants, Hyeonjae provides a remedy for not only their plants but also their hearts.

Hee Su, a 27-year-old woman who has worked for a dyeing factory complex in Daegu since dropping out of high school, barely manages to quit the job and goes on a trip for the first time in her life.
