Director Lee Jangho’s feature debut, which drew 460,000 viewers to theaters when it opened in 1974. The film introduced youth culture of the times—acoustic guitar, jeans, and draft beer–to Korean film. The image of the restless youth of the 1960s, Shin Seong-il appears in this film as the older generation. A naïve woman is abandoned by her first love, fails in marriage, and becomes a hostess at a bar. Shin appears as her rescuer, but their love is not headed towards a happy ending. It is a hostess melodrama of the 1970s that led to Yeong-Ja’s Heydays and Winter Woman. (NAM Dong-chul)
