Overview
A couple lived in the mountains of Dume who were grilling charcoal. Although it was a poor life, Hyun-bo (Choi Woon-bong) was happy whenever he saw his wife (Hyun Soon-young). Her wife had a small dream to try on a pair of white rubber shoes. Her husband buys her rubber shoes by selling charcoal to the marketplace to please her wife. At that time, the forest supervisor (Jeon Taek-i) sees her beautiful Hyun Soon-young and tries to rape her. Hyeon-bo, who witnessed the scene, kills the forest supervisor with an axe. Looking at her husband's back as she was being dragged away by the police, Soon-young's long-awaited white rubber shoes were in her hands.
