Synopsis

When the United States and Russia competed with each other to capture the back side of the moon, three Korean women left for the United States to succeed as a pop group. They show off their capabilities by absorbing all the images of Asia to succeed in the United States. The director discovers the history of other Asian women that took place in 1959, and connects the story of Kim Sisters and the director herself, who is studying abroad. She crosses language, power, history and culture, and reveals the voices of Asian women that were excluded from men and Western centered power, through archived images and collage images of the director.
