It's another hot humid summer in Seoul and a trip to the mountain and temples of Kangwon province could be just the thing to revive the spirit in the aftermath of a breakup. On the rebound from a love affair with Sangkwon, her married university professor, Jisook joins two girlfriends on a trip to Kangwon province. Although Jisook is the only woman he's ever loved, Sangkwon seems to have moved on and is now searching for a tenured position.
