A woman with a unique upbringing in a motel in the countryside leaves her hometown at 20 to pursue her career in Seoul. Twelve years later though, she returns home to heal her heart and experiences twists and turns as she reunites with her first love, a now eligible bachelor and veterinarian.

Lee Se-young captures the quiet ache of a woman returning to the dusty roadside sanctuary that shaped her. This nostalgic reunion between a city professional and a local veterinarian finds its heartbeat in the slow, sun-drenched rhythms of rural life.
