Description:

In 1920s Japan, this moving drama tells the story of Kim Woo Jin and Yun Shim Duk's profound love. They meet as students at Tokyo University, forming a bond that reshapes their destinies. Their pursuit of dreams clashes with societal pressures and personal costs, resulting in a story of passion, yearning, and sorrow. The film honors Yun Shim Duk, Korea's first professional soprano, and her historic 1926 recording of "Death Song"—the first Korean pop song—a pivotal moment in Korean musical history. It’s a deeply emotional tale of two lives connected by love and ambition during a time of great change.
