A romantic coming-of-age drama from South Korea. Summer used to love taking photographs together with her father. Since his passing, she has not so much as picked up her camera. However, one day she falls for Yeonwoo, the school’s soccer star, and takes her picture with her late father’s camera.

This sends her off on a quest to find him, during which she comes to the realisation that her father had a secret love affair in high school.
