Section 1
The film recounts the romantic tale of a male designing understudy, Gyeon-charm, and “the Young lady” (whose name is never referenced in the film). Gyeon-charm just really can’t get a heartfelt break. Their characters stand inverse to the “qualities customarily connected with manliness and femininity…in Asian social orders in general”.[8]
At some point, at supper and beverages with his school companions, Gyeon-charm is intruded on by a call from his mom, advising him to visit his auntie and meet a likely date. At the train station en route to his auntie’s, he notices an alcoholic young lady, standing dubiously near the edge of the train stage as the train draws near; he pulls her to somewhere safe and secure in the nick of time. Inside the train, Gyeon-charm can’t resist the urge to gaze at the young lady who is his “type” however rebuffed by her inebriation. At long last, she hurls on a traveler and blacks out yet not before she calls Gyeon-charm “honey”. The traveler forcefully scolds Gyeon-charm and advises him to deal with his “sweetheart”. Gyeon-charm, totally bothered, leaves her on a tram stage seat, yet his still, small voice urges him to take her to the closest inn for wellbeing. While the young lady is dropped on the bed, her telephone rings and Gyeon-charm gets. He offers unclear responses with respect to the young lady’s whereabouts and maybe through GPS following, police assault the room and Gyeon-charm gets maced and shipped off prison. He is sent home from prison the following morning, and shockingly he gets a call from the young lady, who requests they meet by the train station so she can sort out what happened the prior night. Over soju the Young lady cries, owns up to parting ways with her beau the other day and becomes completely inebriated, bringing about a second outing to a similar lodging.

The Young lady’s emotional episodes fiercely from blissful to tremendously vicious, yet Gyeon-charm tolerates it and lets her maltreatment him for her entertainment.
She is a hopeful scriptwriter and all through the film gives Gyeon-charm three distinct screenplays from various types. The first is an activity film — The Destruction Eliminator — which switches orientation jobs, emblematically having the Young lady save her powerless darling (Gyeon-charm). The second is a wild depravity of a Korean brief tale — Sonagi — in which the Young lady, having passed on, asks that her darling be covered alongside her — despite the fact that he’s as yet alive. The latter is a wuxia/samurai film parody brimming with classification prosaisms and time misplacements. Each of the three element a similar consistent idea: the Young lady is from what’s to come.
Notwithstanding every one of the terrible things Gyeon-charm perseveres, still up in the air to assist with restoring the young lady’s aggravation. He chooses to surprise her on her birthday and goes on her on an evening time outing to an event congregation which winds up uniquely in contrast to how he arranged: the pair experience a Missing fighter who keeps them locked down and tirades about his hopelessness subsequent to being abandoned. Gyeon-charm persuades him to deliver her, and she thusly persuades the fighter to free Gyeon-charm and happen with his life and seek after another adoration.
Section 2

Following a day of hanging out, he strolls her home in the heavy storm and she requests he meet her dad, who is a routine consumer. Her folks don’t take to Gyeon-charm and on leaving, he hears an enthusiastic contention between the young lady and her mom over her relationship with him. He doesn’t hear from her for a long while and his existence without her starts.
At some point notwithstanding, the Young lady calls him and advises him to bring her a rose during class (the Young lady goes to an all-young ladies school) to recognize their 100th-day commemoration. He does this, prompting a contacting and heartfelt scene where he shows up in mask as a food conveyance individual into a stuffed hall and watches her play the tune of George Winston’s variationson Pachelbel’s Group in D on a piano in front of an audience. He presents her the rose and the two embrace while the schoolmates hail in endorsement at his heartfelt motion. As a component of their festival, they hit the bars and clubs together wearing secondary school regalia; she becomes inebriated and as Gyeon-charm conveys her on his back, a more peculiar slips him a condom. Gyeon-charm drops her off inside and is stood up to at her home by her folks once more; the dad grills him and powers him to purge his pockets, where he embarrassingly presents the condom. Her dad requests that the two separation.
The Young lady doesn’t reach him once more and Gyeon-charm normally thinks they have separated, until one day apparently out of nowhere, she calls Gyeon-charm to meet her for supper as she is on a prearranged meeting. The Young lady acquaints Gyeon-charm with the date, who thinks Gyeon-charm is an extraordinary companion of hers in light of how exceptionally she discusses him. She is strangely delicate and delicate as there is clear ungainliness between the two. She pardons herself to the washroom and appears to not be dealing with the separation so well. The Young lady gets back to the table to see Gyeon-charm gone; he left while she was in the restroom, however not prior to offering the prearranged meet-up ten guidelines to keep to guarantee her bliss:

• Keep her from over-drinking
• Yield to her at each situation
• At the point when she hits you imagine it harms when it doesn’t as well as the other way around
• Shock her with a rose on the 100th day commemoration
• Ensure you learn Kendo and Squash, from there, the sky is the limit.
While the prearranged meeting presents these standards to her, she understands how well Gyeon-charm figures out her and understands her adoration for him. She unexpectedly leaves her date and looks for Gyeon-charm at the metro station.
They run into each other a few times, yet never run into one another, so she goes into the tram security office to see the security screens. She sees him standing near the edge of the stage (very much like she was in the first place). While a worker makes a declaration in the amplifier, she shouts his name; he hears and they re-join at the workplace.
When rejoined the two acknowledge they are at a defining moment in their relationship, be that as it may, though no one can easily explain why, the Young lady concludes it is the ideal opportunity for them to part. As a signal to their cheerful times, the two compose letters to one another and cover them in a “period container” under a specific tree on a mountain in the open country. They consent to meet again at the tree following two years to peruse the letters together. Subsequent to covering the “time container” they head out in a different direction for good.
Extra time
During the two-year length, Gyeon-charm endeavors to work on himself; he rehearses kendo and squash and figures out how to swim. To take a break, he likewise started expounding on his dating encounters with the Young lady on the web as a way to adapt. His accounts gain such an excess of reputation that he is drawn closer by film makers to transform his letters into a film; he is euphoric in light of the fact that the Young lady’s deep rooted dream was to have one of her screenplays made into a film. He so frantically needs to impart this news to her, however decides to hold on until they consent to meet.
Two years have passed and on the concurred date, he goes to the tree on the peak, yet the Young lady doesn’t appear. He comes many days without opening the time-case with the expectation that she would show up, yet she won’t ever do. In the end, he opens the time container and peruses her letter and learns the foundation of her tension and conduct: Gyeon-charm helps her to remember her past beau who, as opposed to saying a final farewell to her, really kicked the bucket before she met Gyeon-charm. On the day they met on the train stage, she should go on a prearranged meeting set up by the mother of her departed sweetheart, with whom she kept a nearby bond. Due to her opportunity meeting with Gyeon-charm, part of her feels that it was her ex that brought both of them together and she creates culpability for falling head over heels for him. She wants time separated to mend and continue on from her ex alone.
A year after Gyeon-charm visits the tree, the Young lady at long last shows up.
