Hye-sun, whose professor husband will soon retire, has lived contentedly and envies no one. Her daughter Yeon-hui, now a doctoral student, is writing a play called John Turner about Koreans adopted overseas, and talks it over with her father. Hye-sun cannot see why the subject draws her daughter and quietly hopes she will let it go, until reading about Jane Clay stirs a recollection she has long kept buried.
