A warm-hearted and delightful tale that cheers for animals’ and humans’ subsistence and lives
Mr. Choe Man-do and his companion dog Mungchi are inseparable both at home and at his shop. Although the man thinks that he alone can communicate with the canine, his daughter A-yeong, too, seems to be able to connect with the animal. He unwillingly takes care of a family of pigeons that has nested on his rooftop due to A-yeong’s love of the birds. In addition, after being chased by a boar during a mountain hike with the family of his daughter’s friend, Man-do comes to ponder on the hardships faced by beasts that have been driven into a corner by humans. On the other hand, after turning into Mong-gu, a boy, Mungchi the dog appears at A-yeong’s school on a sports day and becomes a star. Man-do is happy because of Mungchi and his family.
