A Day in Tongyeong

"I have a dream I want to keep even in a life where the sun doesn't rise!" Seon Yeop, who has just been released from prison, barely makes a living by learning work at a motel following Nam Kyoo, a senior from the organization. Seon Yeop, who worked silently, enduring assault and verbal abuse, meets the rough-tempered Seon Joo, who was wandering around the motel, and develops new hopes for life. Meanwhile, when Tae Seon, the boss of the organization, found out that Nam Kyoo embezzled motel funds, he forced Seon Yeop to do a dangerous mission under the pretext of Seon Joo.

Seong-beom, a tutoring teacher, visits his old middle school to retrieve a graduation certificate required by his academy director — only to discover that his student record no longer exists in the system. With the help of So-eun, a former classmate now teaching at the school, he begins to trace the missing files. In doing so, he finds that another name has also been erased: Shim Won-mo, a friend from middle school. Won-mo was two years older than the rest of his class, adopted, and always on the margins — a boy who eventually dropped out after running away from home more than once. Seong-beom had watched Won-mo drift and struggle, yet never reached out. Now, after all these years, news arrives that Won-mo has taken his own life.
