Expecting a cozy night outside of the barracks, Seok visits his boyfriend Min-soo who is serving in the military. However they run into Min-soo's mother there. When his mother questions their relationship, the only answer they can give is that they are 'just friends'. Unexpectedly, they spend the night with Min-soo's mother.

I want to make a real gay film of 99.9% purity. There are many Korean films that give distorted portrayals of gays. Through this film, I want to give a true one of gays not only the gay couples, but the relationship that surround them, and how they 'unconsciously but inevitably' hurt those around them.
