Synopsis
Dong-joo has been preparing for the civil service exam for over eight years, but fails every time. After failing the exam in the year he thought would be his last, Dong-joo is at a loss as to what to do next. Dong-joo feels that even the worries and attention of those around him are putting pressure on him, so he leaves Seoul as if running away. As he travels without a plan, he meets his ex-girlfriend who is about to get married, his military classmates whom he reunites with after a long time, and his childhood friends, and discovers his own life. I look back. What did Dong-joo, who stayed alone in the summer while others were harvesting in the fall, leave behind from his travels?
