Seok-bong is a penniless history teacher who dreams of discovering lost treasure. His younger brother Joo-bong is an ambitious junior executive at a construction firm. They meet on their way to their father's funeral in their hometown of Andong, neither of them having seen him or one another since a disastrous scene at the funeral of their mother. En route, the brothers hit a woman with their car, after which she suffers amnesia. In their very traditional family, the brothers, especially Seok-bong as the eldest, are expected to perform many ceremonial duties as part of the funeral rites. However, Seok-bong is mostly interested in searching for relics or buried treasure that could help him repay a debt, while Joo-bong risks losing his job if he cannot obtain permission to build a highway construction project for his company through the family's land. As the multi-day funeral elapses, the brothers learn more about their family, one another, and themselves.
