On a winter day, a tiger escapes from the zoo. Gyeong-yu, who was living with his girl-friend, does not understand why she decided to leave him. Not knowing where to go, Gyeong-yu is left in the street with his suitcase. People are worried and wary with the tiger wandering about the streets. Gyeong-yu is a freelance chauffeur and he must face clients who are exigent, not very serious and even dishonest. By chance, he meets his former girl-friend Yoo-jung. She now writes novels, which is what he himself dreamt of. They tie a new relationship. However, Yoo-jung feels lousy and is unable to write; she makes a strange offer to Gyeong-yu.
“While looking back on the past, I suddenly realized that I have acted cowardly in so many moments. I thought that I have turned and run away from my relationships with the people that were important to me and from the moments of critical decisions due to a vague or banal fear. Although I may never be free of such fear in the time that awaits me, it was my hope to face those moments to the best of my power that has brought this story to the world. I wish that this story could com fort those faced with great and small fears including myself.”
