Chun-hee leaves the home she shared with her late husband, Hyun-chul, and moves into a modest apartment, bringing with her his cherished grand piano and car. When it proves impossible to fit the piano into her new place, she accepts her neighbor Min-jun’s offer to keep it in his apartment. It turns out that Min-jun is a conductor, and that he has come to Korea on an impulsive journey in search of his mother. Soon, the two are joined by Seong-chan, a promising young pianist whom Min-jun admires. Thus begins an innocent, good-hearted friendship between three people of entirely different ages, experiences, and life paths. The time they share together transforms traces of the past, left behind by those who are gone; they evolve into something with meaning for the future, becoming an act of restoration, renewal, and rebirth. With unwavering grace and an open heart, the film embraces the shimmering moments of life. It is, truly, a rare and elegant world we are fortunate to encounter once again in a long time.
