Synopsis

A drunken woman is tottering at the women’s room. Is it because her life is so hard? She can’t even hear her daughter calling her from outside. Daughters would often look at their mothers and promise to themselves that they would not grow up to be like their mothers. But all grown, they realize that they have become the exact duplicates of their mothers. Our mothers have a hard time expressing their love for their daughters. It is because their life is so hard; their lives devoted to raising their daughters. But we daughters know. We know that our mothers love us the most. (JI Se-yeon)
