Yoon-Ju (Lee Sung-Jae) is a lecturer who hopes to become a professor. He has no stable income, and his pregnant wife constantly reminds him that she's the one wearing the pants in the family. The apartment complex where he lives is a noisy mess, with dogs barking all the time. One day he eventually snaps, kidnapping what seems to be the culprit. Hanging the dog was too cruel, so he tries to lock it in an old wardrobe in the basement. Hyun-Nam (Bae Doo-Na) works at an office approving "lost dog" claims. She dreams of doing a heroic act and appear on TV because of it. Both characters are slackers whose life offer little excitement. They meet by accident, but they eventually develop a strange friendship involving dog soup, chases, radish, lots of alcohol and the infamous Boiler Kim.

Sypnosis :

The film tells the story of a love triangle between three Koreans living in a foreign city _ a female painter, a professional killer and an international detective _ whose fates are intertwined.

Hye-young (played by Jun) is a street painter and works at her grandfather's antique shop. She starts receiving daisies from a mysterious stranger at 4:15 p.m. every day. Curiously, she waits for him to show up.

Pak-yi (Jung), the sender, is a hitman belonging to a Chinese crime gang. He falls in love with Hye-young for her pure and innocent appearance, which contrasts with the cruel world he inhabits. However, he can't confess his love and simply sends her flowers every day, instead.

But this routine is broken when international detective Sung-wu (Lee Sung-jae) enters the scene. As he happens to show up with daisies in his hand, Hye-youg mistakes him for her mystery man, for whom she has long waited.
