A quiet, introspective portrait of a solitary woman's gradual opening to connection and the possibility of love.

Jeong-hye, a woman in her 30s, works at the post office and lives a quite monotonous life alone in an apartment with her cat. Apart from having lunch with the girls at work, she is all by herself, until an aspiring writer is attracted by her.
