    • Synopsis
    • Min-suh is a lonely high schooler. Her single mother is busy dating younger men and her friends are busy preparing for university. She takes care of herself through a part-time job that doesn’t cover the bills. Sick of her mother’s love affairs, she sometimes runs away from home.
      One day Min-suh encounters a migrant worker named Karim; and ends up stealing his wallet, despite knowing better. Karim catches her but agrees not to involve the police so long as Min-suh grants him a wish to help him collect his delayed paycheck, which he is unfairly being denied by his Korean employers.
      Min-suh agrees to help Karim. In the confusion of the moment, Min-suh has become Karim’s money collector.
