Who does grey-haired Professor Yun Suk-yung want to see agin more than anything? The answer to that question lies decades in the past. 1969 was a tumultuous year the world over, and South Korea was no exception. President Park Chung-Hee?s iron-fisted dictatorship has provoked a backlash among angry students, and trouble is brewing. Suk-yung and his comrades decide that Seoul is getting too tense, and embark on a summer retreat in the countryside, where they will help bring a rural village up to date with the modern world. But Suk-yung discovers pretty Suh Jung-in, the only local girl who shows no interest in the strikingly handsome student from a well-to-do family ?- and that, of course, means he?s soon falling head over heels for her. Their bumpy courtship, however, is threatened by dark secrets that Jung-in hides about her family and their history in the village, secrets that will haunt the pair as the volatile political climate catches up with them.
