Movie Synopsis
Inside a hospice ward where patients are getting ready to bid the world goodbye, there are ‘wacky’ terminally ill patients who smoke and have part-time jobs? Something is not right!
After getting caught up in an assault case, ‘Chung-ui’, a troublemaker teen idol singer gets ordered to social service at a hospice ward. He pretends to be sorry and tries to sneak out of duty, but gets caught red-handed by some odd patients! There is an ex-gangster with terminal brain cancer who goes crazy over sausages. There is also a man with terminal liver cancer who goes out to work at a nightclub every night, a young girl with leukemia whose hobby is secretly filming things, and there is even a tough hospital volunteer lady who maintains military style order of the ward. How did ‘Chung-ui’ end up at a wacky place like this of all places?
From day one, he has major run-ins with the weird, unpredictable, terminally ill patients.
Then one day, desperate to escape from the ward, ‘Chung-ui’ jumps at a chance to cut his volunteer hours in half and ends up helping a group of terminally patients to audition for a rock band competitions in order to save the hospital from getting shut down.
The miraculous challenge of terminally ill patients and a troublemaker idol singer begins!
