저녁식사가 끝난 뒤

While travelling in France, a couple learn that P, who officiated at their wedding, has died. Later a dinner is held at Sun-nam's house for the people he married, timed for when colour still lingers on the sea. Each guest brings a song, a poem or a dish linked to a memory of him, yet no one speaks his name. The story traces this mourning at one remove, carried by food and music rather than words.
