27-year-old Min-joon delivers heavy packages. World news from his car radio provides nothing but endless anxiety, from North Korean missile launches to cracks in nuclear power plants. He finishes work by morning, quietly eats discounted convenience store food in his truck and falls into a fleeting sleep. His broken family breaks his heart. One day, a mysterious astrologer tells him, "Trust me and follow your halo," igniting a new flame within his heart. Centered on a marginalized and struggling young man, the film constantly sets a dark rhythm with the repetition and slippage of his labor.
