SYNOPSIS

Middle school student Bona Lee has fallen in love with a 70's American rock band. While trying to get back at her shaman grandmother for not listening to her, Bona accidentally calls the ghosts of the rock band to her.

PROGRAM NOTE

Bona, an avid fan of The Headliners, the band whose members died in an accident, unintentionally summons the spirits of them when she touches her grandmother's shamanic gears and paper talisman. The band learns that the last song they playfully recorded before they died is forever on the world. The song, even without a proper title, becomes the melody that howls around as a form of “Goot:" to console the living and the dead. Can some part of our lives continue beyond our existence? [KIM Woo-jin, Ssudam]
