SYNOPSIS
Program Note
Yeon-ah believes that her body smells, so she refuses to eat. But her friends force her to eat something. A class leader comes between them. The smell of her body makes Yeon-ah feels like a misfit. Whether one has body odor or has a nosebleed, these are things that make one feel alienated from others. This story is something any woman can sympathize with, especially those who have felt vulnerable while going through adolescence. Yeon-ah and her friend connect deeply without talking in the spring rain. (PARK Seojin)
