A love letter to all unknown musicians in the world from an indie band from Tongyeong, located at the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula. It’s okay if you don’t know! It’s okay to be wrong! The origin story of an indie band in the seaside town of Tongyeong. A baker, a bookstore owner, a restaurant owner, and a dog lover live busy lives in the beautiful seaside town of Tongyeong. ‘Listening to Us is Your Duty’ is a band they created by chance. Although they never officially learned music, they created one song after another that is unique and different. Far away from the Korean music industry which is full of harsh competition, these amateur musicians find a new world. Listening to the songs written by those who live in Tongyeong is... your duty!
