Synopsis
The warm consolation I give you, the time you face me completely.

Five people living in Seoul talk about their anxieties for the first time. Their voices in front of the camera are like reading a poem. A woman in her 30s is worried about whether to endure a hard life by taking medicine, a worker who worked like a machine without thinking of another choice, a man in his 50s who has been suffering from panic disorder for more than 20 years, a man who seeks stability in games rather than an uneasy reality, and a woman who equates her hatred and discrimination with the pain of all the weak.

They are in different situations, but they look at themselves in the face of uncertainty and miserable reality.
