服完兵役的高龄大学生恩植（任昌丁饰）就读于法律系，校园里满是对性充满好奇的年轻男女。可惜外表憨直的他没有什么女人缘，脑筋也是不大好使。一次偶然机会，恩植认识了学校健身俱乐部的头牌队员、校花级美女银孝（河智苑饰），他立马被对方的美貌性感吸引。恩植想尽办法接进银孝，博取好感，却都以失败告终，甚至引发许多误会，比如在公车上，他被银孝当成色狼一脚踢中要害。后来，银孝迷住了有钱的花花公子相旭（郑敏饰），甚至怀了孕，但最终被抛弃，伤心绝望。与此同时，恩植和银孝之间产关系有了微妙变化。

Aki and Naoko are childhood friends who are drifting apart as adults. Immersed in her family life, Naoko now has a husband and daughter; Aki, on the other hand, remains single and is on leave from work due to a personal crisis. The plot might sound familiar but it has never been told like this. The director Kusano Natsuka stages the interactions through an actors’ table-read and, as the lines are repeated, the scenes gradually develop into on-location conversations. Moreover, she repositions the dramatic peak of the story to the beginning: Aki has murdered Naoko’s daughter.Structurally inventive, Kusano's daring cinema implements ‘distantiation’ effects to get to the heart of friendship issues at times when life has settled. While the repetitions convey the suffocation of role patterns in both friendship and family, a line left out or added in unsettles and reminds us life can take unexpected turns.
