Synopsis
"This sound cannot end here."
At the end of a disappearing sound, recording the final transmission!
Jeong Eui-jin, a master singer and holder of the Seoul Intangible Cultural Heritage title "Sugungga," has preserved the tradition of the Dongpyeonje Sugungga, a genre of pansori that is on the verge of extinction.
Desperate to believe that "this sound could disappear with me," she embarks on a journey to find the last successor. The film follows Jeong Eui-jin's journey and documents the current state of the transmission of a traditional art form through the realities of female singers who continue to carry on the tradition in their own lives.
