Synopsis

Seventeen-year-old Yeong Jae (Choi Woo Shik) has spent much of his childhood at the "Isaac's House" children's home due to his irresponsible father's inability to care for him, but he's nearly too old to remain living there. Knowing that living with his father would only ruin his life, Yeong Jae decides to tell the group home director that he'll become a priest and devote himself to God despite his personal lack of faith, which would allow him to stay at Isaac's House. This choice alienates Yeong Jae from his friend Beom Tae (Shin Jae Ha), who disapproves of his lie, but finds himself in a similar position due to his age. To make matters worse, Yeong Jae's father stops by – only to drop off Yeong Jae's younger brother Min Jae (Jang Yoo Sang) to live at Isaac's House, too. This movie was based on the director's personal life story.
