Yoo Man-soo is a key employee of the company. He has a beloved wife, children, dogs, and a collection of expensive cars. But all of a sudden, the company is bought out by a large American corporation. The hero loses his job, and after a while we see him in completely different circumstances: his property is being auctioned off, the dogs are given away, and his wealth is a thing of the past.

No one on Earth can match Park’s signature ability to make characters more endearing as they stumble toward the void.

—David Ehrlich, IndieWire

When the protagonist finally loses all hope and is overcome by envy and malice, the film turns into black comedy, and a planter with a red pepper appears at the centre of events.
