One day, the mother tells her daughter that she experienced the Jeju 4.3 uprising especially how she got involved in the uprising and the reason she escaped to Japan. In 2018, after 70 years from the massacre, the daughter and her fiancé take the mother to Jeju Island although the mother starts to lose her memories because of Alzheimer.

Twenty-six years passed since I first took a camera in my hand with the intention of making a documentary about my family, and somehow I’ve ended up with a three-part work. This film might be called the final chapter in the story that began with Dear Pyongyang. The title “Soup and Ideology” refers to my belief that even if we have different values or way of thinking, we should eat and live together without killing one another. I hope my film to be a positive force for aid in understanding each other.
