Synopsis
"Sister, it's me, Song-jeol. When will we meet again?"
The Korean War, which began on June 25, 1950, led to the separation of approximately ten million families on the Korean Peninsula. Among them were Kang Song-jeol and her 1-year-old sister, Saet-byeol, who were torn apart when Song-jeol was just 11. Their grandfather's promise to return home in three months remains unfulfilled, blocked by the barbed wire fences dividing North and South Korea for seventy years. Despite the passing decades and fading memories, Song-jeol never forgot her sister. She sends a heartfelt letter to Saet-byeol, hoping it will reach her and bridge the divide.
