Synopsis
It's 91-year-old HONG Jin-yoo's house where his son and his son's wife who are over 70's live together. HONG's daughter-in-law has been living a tough married life to take care of old, but noble HONG.

NAM Yong-jois also an old guy who's now 80 years old and has always had a drinking problem which his wife keeps nagging about. But he regrets for his past life and as well as complain of not many days to live on.
It's 'Bong-do-kag' home for the aged in Uepnae-ri, Soonheung-myun in City of Yeongju.
The old hang out by having some drinks, playing a game, throwing some parties with food and from time to time argue on nothing really important. One day, they go on a picnic.
A travel bus's gone, HONG and NAM who're left behind for some reasons are getting bored.
By the way, the people who're supposed to have fun on a picnic are back ahead of schedule.
Director's Note
I'd love to remember all those older but simple and honest people who's no longer representatives of the modern society.
They are doing their best to live on somewhere we can't even recognize.
This is what this film wants to remind audience.
