첫경험 (Cheot Gyeongheom)
Directed by Hwang Hye-mi (황혜미)

Middle-aged gentleman Ki-jun and college dropout In-ae meet by chance on a flight to Busan and soon begin seeing each other regularly. Their secret meetings grow more frequent until the affair turns passionate. When Ki-jun's wife Ji-suk learns the truth, she is overcome by humiliation and attempts an affair of her own. In-ae then leaves, choosing to keep her time with Ki-jun as a precious first experience—and their marriage is pulled back from the brink of collapse.
