Synopsis
SONG Soo-jung is a producer going on her third year at a small
company. Her specialty is human interest stories. She is driven to
produce these shallow stories for the sake of her ambition of one day
becoming Korea’s own Oprah Winfrey. However, she is reaching the end of
what’s left of her pride. One day, after months of not getting paid, she
leaves her office with the company camera to produce a story on a lion
apparently refusing to eat its meal. On her way, however, she comes
across a robber, but she is saved somehow by Superman in a Hawaiian
shirt. “Superman” claims he’s unable to tap into his supernatural powers
as the bad guys have placed kryptonite inside his head. However, he
doesn’t let that get in his way from helping others, from saving the
world from global warming to saving a lost puppy. Soo-jung can see this
will make a good story and, with a little tweaking and a little
fabricating, she produces the Superman Saves the World documentary which
goes on to be a ratings hit. However, the true story behind this
“Superman,” including the bullet and not the kryptonite that is lodged
in his brain, helps the frosty, calculating Soo-jung to awaken to what’s
truly important in life.
