Synopsis

There is ‘Si-hyung’ who wants to be a novelist but has never completed one yet. He promises to write an essay every month to his cousin’s husband ‘Jong-pil’ while drunk. He doesn’t have any source to write, however, he experiences special meetings one day in a month. 7 months and 7 meetings. This is the story of those one day’s.

Director's Note

 Like an old saying 'sometimes you can find yourself wandering without any purpose,' I wanted to see a progress which makes me look back at myself with meeting people by chance. Now I reached a question: ‘what is FILM in my definition?’
