I. Synopsis
The movie revolves around four senior citizens living in a hillside village. Kim Man-seok (Lee Soon-jae) is a cranky milkman with a short fuse and a foul mouth. He wakes the village early each morning with his noisy, battered motorcycle. He meets Song Ee-peun (Yoon So-jung), who scavenges for scrap paper while roaming around the town at daybreak. As they meet, again and again, they slowly develop feelings for each other.
Ms. Song parks her handcart at a junkyard and sees Jang Kun-bong (Song Jae-ho), the caretaker of the parking lot next to the scrap yard. One day, Kun-bong wakes up late and forgets to lock his door and asks Ms. Song to fasten it for him. Meanwhile, Jang's Alzheimer's-afflicted wife Soon-yi (Kim Soo-mi) wanders around the town, ending up on the back of Man-seok's motorbike.
