Jessie Story 2020 / 제씨 이야기 2020 / Jessi Iyagi , The Story of Jessi

Jameson, a native of Korea born in 1952, came to Korea, leaving his wife and daughter in Delhi, India. Two people who seem to have no contact met unexpectedly. Jameson, who visited the mill run by Im Soon for 30 years, is fascinated by the taste of Baekseolgi she made and wants to learn how to make rice cakes. It is clear that he was moved by the hard work of Im Soon, who has supported her family with all her might, not only because of the taste but also by protecting the space. It is Im Soon's daughter who causes the current conflict. The daughter, who is uncomfortable with the fact that Jameson, who she does not know, even a foreigner, enters her mother's space, rejects Jameson and sees it. In addition, in this era, the mill is just a real estate sale that needs to be disposed of as soon as possible. This is probably the case when a perfect stranger recognizes the value of one's life more deeply than blood relatives. It is none other than Jameson and his family who understands and rewrites the surname ‟Jessi,‟ which Im Soon has lived with pride. In this way, Jessie's story expands and continues through completely different people. (Source: Korean = DFF, Daum || Translation = XuongPhim)
