With a mysterious motive in mind, emotionally fragile Seoul businessman Tae-Hee decides to take a short break in the romantic island of Cheju. Not long after reaching his destination, Tae-Hee foils a bag-snatch outside the airport and subsequently comes into contact with lonely tour guide Young-Seo. Despite their respective emotional baggage, the pair quickly become friends and decide to spend some time together touring Cheju and the other outlying islands. Young-Soo soon nurses an affection for the quiet and mild-mannered visitor, but finds her companion far more cautious about how he feels. The potential relationship reaches a stand-still when Tae-Hee's real reason for visiting Cheju becomes clear and Young-soo is left wondering what is really under his phlegmatic surface.
