Summary note

"Foreign news correspondent Hi-jeong is alone in Wakanai, Japan. Korean-Japanese Sang-jun acts as her guide. However, Sang-jun is actually working for the pro-North Korean residents' federation in Japan and he has orders to kidnap Hi-jeong. While she is in Japan, the Rangoon explosion incident happens. The Japanese media covers the incident in only a sensationalistic manner. Hi-jeong is very angered by their reporting attitude. She asks to interview a politician and then denounces this news coverage during the interview. Watching Hi-jeong, Sang-jun has second thoughts about the federation. He saves the kidnapped Hi-jeong. Sang-jun asks Hi-jeong to report the truth and then leaves her. Sang-jun goes back to his girlfriend, Akiko, who is walking a corrupted path led by the federation. Along with the members of the federation who are chasing after them, Sang-jun blows up himself and his girlfriend."--Korean Movie Database (KMDb).
