Workers Before Adults

Overview

A seaside temple said to grant everyone one wish. Twenty-four-year-old Yubin prays for a way to pay off his debt faster. After graduating from a technical high school, he handed his money to a con man introduced by a friend and was left with a crushing debt. Four years of rotating day and night shifts at a factory in the Noksan Industrial Complex haven't come close to covering it. There is only one option left: borrow money from his friends. Minyoung, about the closest friend he had in school, offers to come along, and Hyesung, whom they run into in Yeongdo after years apart, joins them. The three set off in Yubin's car, driving around Busan and beyond to look up old classmates. With every reunion, time flows back to the classroom where they once turned lathes and learned to weld. How are his friends doing these days? More to the point, will Yubin manage to borrow any money? So begins a journey that is funny, yet somehow bitter.
