True love never runs smooth. Jong-du, who has previous convictions, meets Gong-ju, a woman who has cerebral palsy. He is fascinated by her at first sight. Then he loses control and tries to rape her, stopping only when she faints. To Jong-du's amazement, Gong-ju then calls him and invites him to visit again. After series of secret meetings, the handicapped woman and the feckless young man fall in love. However their love is not accepted by anyone else. Director Lee's humanitarian plea for tolerance is one of the most touching films of the decade, and Moon So-ri's flawless portrayal on the role is a key of the film success.
