Synopsis
Sinopsis
‘Chanel’ in Myeong-dong in the 1970s was the secret hideout for Butches and Femmes. In 1996, young lesbians opened Korea’s first lesbian bar, Lesbos. In the early 2000s, queer teens looking for a community gathered in a small park in Sinchon. Myung-woo, who ran ‘Lesbos’ nearby, is still guarding the place 20 years later. As the coronavirus crisis hit, the bar has lost its customers. Will they be able to protect the place this time?
