An Alice-in-wonderland type of story based on a mysterious "escape" from mind-numbingly boring everyday life. A woman who finds life utterly boring and uneventful dozes off in a bus, waking up to find herself in the terminal. Her purse is gone. Unable even to call for help, she goes through strange events in that unknown place. After committing an unintentional murder at a gas station wherein she tries to bum a few coins, she reports to the police station to turn herself in. But the door is locked. She was chased by a group of cannibalists, viewed as a killer, even. Thank Goodness all that is happening in her dream - an ultimate nightmare from which one dares to escape. Like the advice from a woman she met at the terminal, "Remember how all this has started if you want to put an end to it," the dream-world trip she takes is also a reminder of her lost life, her struggles to get away from a helpless reality. (JANG Byung Won)
