Na-young (Jeon Do-yeon) is an office worker who lives with her seemingly emotionally non-existent father Jin-kook (Kim Bong-geun), and loud cynical mother Yeon-soon (Go Doo-shim). As time passes she is becoming more and more like her mother Yeon-soon.

One day her father suddenly disappears and she skips her international airplane flight to find him. By entering her father's hometown she is somehow transported back in time to when her parents' relationship was just beginning. She meets her mother, now a poor young woman (Jeon Do-yeon) working hard as a haenyo to send her younger brother to school to get the education she never received. Her father is a charming man (Park Hae-il) who delivers the mail, to be more precise about his work he is postmaster who delivers mails all over the town where her mother used to live; he befriends and teaches Yeon-soon how to read and write.

Na-young is taken in by the young Yeon-soon and, as they are now roughly the same age, the two become very close. Na-young is able to experience the trials, heartbreaks, and celebrations of Yeon-soon before she herself is suddenly transported back into the present time.

Megjegyzés:  Lee Sun Gyun, mint a lány barátja, a film elején és végén szerepel pár jelenetben. Először a 7. percben tűnik fel két percre, majd a 22. percben másfél percre, a 27. percben
10 másodpercre, végül a 99. percben két percre. Sajnos, az viszont nem derül ki a film végén,
hogy a kislánynak ő e az apukája, mert csak gyerekkori képen mutatnak rá...
