The film revolves around Park Hee-bong, a man in his late 60s. Park runs a small
snack bar on the banks of the Han River and lives with his two sons, one daughter,
and one granddaughter. The Parks seem to lead a quite ordinary and peaceful life,
but maybe a bit poorer than the average Seoulite. Hee-bong's elder son Gang-du is
an immature and incompetent man in his 40s, whose wife left home long ago. Nam-il
is the youngest son, an unemployed grumbler, and daughter Nam-joo is an archery medalist
and member of the national team. One day, an unidentified monster suddenly appears
from the depths of the Han River and spreads panic and death, and Gang-du's daughter
Hyun-seo is carried off by the monster and disappears. All the family members are
in a great agony because they lost someone very dear to them. But when they find
out she is still alive, they resolve to save her.
