Synopsis
"I wanted to be famous. That’s why I came to Daechi-dong."

Yoon-im is a blunt but talented Korean language instructor at a Daechi academy. On the day after the midterm exams at the middle school that Yoon-im is in charge of, Gi-haeng, a Korean language teacher at that school, comes to visit her. As the meeting between the two is witnessed, parents in Daechi begin to talk about it, and even suspicions about the test questions being leaked spread. Yoon-im, due to meeting Gi-haeng, begins to forget Na-eun, a novelist and close friend, Gi-haeng, her ex-boyfriend from 10 years ago, and Michio, who had a crush on her, and a past from her college days that she wanted to forget she encountered.

"I sometimes wondered. Did you also have a deep wish?"
