Synopsis

TV documaker Park Jin-pyo first met the two protags when making the series "Love" in 2001, and had the idea of making a scripted feature based on their actual story. Result is 70% written and dialogued (based on interviews with the couple), with the rest made up during the shoot. Park Chi-gyu is 73 and works in a small confectionery stall in the street. Lee Sun-ye is 72, and a trained Gyonggi-style folk singer-cum-drummer. They meet when Park chats up Lee on a public bench, and without much ado she moves in with him, bringing her drum and a bundle of clothes. After pledging their love for each other, and going through a self-administered ceremony, Park and Lee settle down to married life. She teaches him how to sing traditional songs and he teaches her how to write. They bath together like kids, make love frequently, and have only one major row when she stays out late without warning. When she falls sick, however, he cares for her with total devotion.
