Overview

The film is set in Shin-Okubo, a sacred place for the Korean Wave. Surrounded by handsome cafes and other stores, there is a fruit and vegetable store that is used 24 hours a day by people who have immigrated from abroad. People from Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and everywhere in between. They all have different dreams for the future, important family members, and various other concerns. There is a human touch to the downtown area that Japanese people have almost forgotten.
