- Synopsis:
On the small fishing island of Naro, many of the local men blame shamaness Wangnyeon (Yoon JeongHee) for the lack of fish in the area because she refuses to perform traditional rituals. She instructs them to allow her daughter-in-law (Bang Hie) to perform the rituals, but they refuse because they feel Wangnyeon is the strongest shamaness in the area. Her husband OkSu (Kim HeeRa) returns from the army with a more worldly outlook than when he left the superstitious island, and he has lost his shamanistic faith and accompanying musical abilities. He leaves again to work on a fishing vessel and save up for a boat of his own. Her son also returns from time away and holds it against her that she is losing out on financial opportunities by not performing rituals. Meanwhile, her daughter-in-law takes up with the island loan shark. - Actors:
