A story about a family that sometimes makes you wish it wasn’t your own, that you could just throw it all away. Yet, despite that, it’s family. Even if you fight every morning before leaving, you face each other that evening as if nothing happened. If someone doesn’t come home, you worry, but outwardly, you yell, ‘Why are you crawling back in?’ You can torment them, but if they come home crying from being tormented elsewhere, that day becomes war. It’s the story of a family shattered into pieces.
Han Gyu Rim is the owner of a market side dish shop. Her nickname since childhood was “Leader Han.” A movie with the long title “Leader Han, Who Always Appears When Something Happens to Someone, Somewhere,” was released, and that’s exactly her story. If something is bad or sad, she puts aside all else and rushes to help, making it a little less bad or sad. If it was good, she’d celebrate it like it was her own. She’s a nosy busybody, a fluttery-eared, emotional litmus test who can’t hide her feelings.
