Attending a friend’s funeral, a group of former classmates begin to look back on Sang-tae; a researcher of history who was studying the Keumjeong Cave where the slaughter of innocent people had been committed. Present is a strange senior classmate with a mendacious countenance. In their remembrance, Sang-tae may spend the cruelest time of his life. However, they do not stop talking about him although they don’t really want to know the truth about him. When will they stop? Until they are able to satisfy their hunger with a good meal?

With reminiscence of a historian, this film falls deeply into the connection of a fact, which becomes changed and disappears as an illusion. Factual connection is no more important, i'd like to express pleasure from the sense of embarrassment in this film. In the process of filmmaking, I shoud consider a dilemma between free expression and unified composition. Concealed agony is also one of the faces of this film.
