Synopsis
Four people ravaged by war live in a quiet little town located on the outskirts of an American military base. Chang-guk and his mother live in a red abandoned bus. Chang-guk's mother writes to Chang-guk's father who was a black soldier stationed in Korea but who now has left them behind to go back to America. Although each of her letters come back to her stamped with "Address Unknown" she does not give up. Chang-guk despises his mother and often beats her for her actions who is defenseless. Ji-heum is a timid youth who does not attend high school but instead works at a local portrait studio. He is oftentimes overwhelmed by his overbearing father who claims he was a war hero. Ji-heum has a secret crush on Eun-ok, a girl who can only see out of her one eye. He tries in vain to protect her. Eun-ok lives in pain of having to live day to day with her condition, which was a result of her older brother's prank. She hides half of her face behind her hair and has also withdrawn from the world. She falls for James, an American soldier who promises to pay for her eye surgery. Chang-guk is abused and ridiculed by the town's people for being mixed and his sole patron is his boss, Dog Eye, who is the local dog butcher. All four lives collide as each individual's hope for a better future return to them unfulfilled.
