This beautiful and kind-hearted girl, Bai Lan, travelled across the oceans from far away China to South Korea. She was unsuccessful in seeking relatives and was lonely and helpless, but she found a husband, Li Jiangzhai, whom she had never met before. They are all people who have been forgotten in the corner of their lives, separated by a mountain called Taibai, writing a love that is not as clean as love.
A simple name, a smiling photo, and a red scarf are all that Bai Lan has about her husband Li Jiangzhai. In this small village on the coast of the East China Sea, Bai Lan makes a living by helping others to do laundry in a laundry shop, washing quilts barefoot in the cold, collecting clothes on her bike everywhere, and enduring ridicule from others. The happiest time of the day is to sit. In that little cold room, facing the photo of her husband, she wrote stroke by stroke how she missed him, although she had never seen him. A young woman, alone in a strange place, can only possess and grasp these seemingly insignificant things, a soft and shallow warmth, a name of "love" in her mind.
This man named Li Jiangzhai is a full-fledged gangster, doing nothing and being downhearted. He is Bailan's legal husband. In the messy port, dirty walls, and video rental shop full of pornographic discs, sits this boring man with cigarettes slanting, although the buddies who grew up in the slums with him have long become one Boss, but he still only makes a living by renting out video tapes. Being a gangster is just a third-rate gangster whose biggest dream is to buy a boat and drive back to his hometown. So when the second-rate people in the same situation said to him, "You are a coward, still use your brain", he has to smile and endure it.
Love is a luxury thing. Two people in such a situation have weaved a poignant love in a foreign country. Although they have never met each other, what is the relationship?
"Jiang Jae-kun...Thank you, thanks to you I can continue to work in Korea. The people here are very good to me, but you are the best, because you married me...", married... wife ...Brylan...Oh! He remembered that he used to fake marriage with others for money. This letter from a strange woman gave him warmth that he had never felt before.
After knowing her condition, Bai Lan went to the city to look for Jiangzhai, squatting at the door of the shop and repeatedly practicing saying her name and greetings in Korean. When finally plucking up the courage to enter the door, the police car took Jiang Zhai away. Still can't meet.
"The world says I am third-rate, but she says I am her favorite..."
"There is a corpse in this hospital who said that I am the kindest person..."
received Bai Lan On the news of the death, he set off for the confirmed deceased as a protector to take the train to Gangwon-do. The white railway, the moving train, the traces of Bailan’s life are getting closer and closer to him...
At the end of the film, Li Jiangzhai was strangled with a rope and dragged out of the house. The messy corners of the house, on the TV screen, It is the figure of Bailan playing in the water on the beach, smiling like a flower, belonging to the youngest face of a young woman. The lens is getting farther and farther, getting blurrier, white waves, gentle breeze, brilliant laughter... all are drifting away, only the singing of this woman named Bai Lan echoes in my ears. The name is "Love".
The tears I had endured for a long time still slipped down. This kind of flower called Bailan has a very short flowering period.
