Synopsis
Chun-ho likes taking pictures, and so does Sung-hee.
He is showing her how to take pictures. One day, Suk-ho who has taught him to take pictures asks a favor of filming a shooting scene, and Chun-ho promises to go there with Sung-hee.
That day, Chun-ho, who arrives later than Sung-hee notices that Sung-hee and Suk-ho become intimate. He feels oddly as somehow something goes wrong.
Since then, Chun-ho hears bad news from his friend, Hyung-gi that he has seen Suk-ho going out with Sung-hee. He makes hard work of it.
On his birthday, it happens for him to reveal innermost feelings toward her in an unexpected situation.
Director's Note
"Dear my lover who has already been deep in my heart, I want to say that it is love, it is true love...." I hope this film inspires those who want to express their love with fresh courage.
