The film moves backward through seven pivotal moments that reveal how Yeong‑ho, once hopeful, became a cold, despondent man. In spring 1999 his former classmates gather for a 20‑year reunion, and his gloomy demeanor foreshadows a crisis when he climbs a railroad bridge, seeming ready to jump. As he hesitates, the narrative rewinds, flooding his mind with the key episodes that stripped him of his lost innocence.
