The story revolves around the reclusive Min-a, who is having a hard time adjusting to her new school. Having spent most of her young life in a hospital, Min-a keeps her true feelings and her malformed left hand hidden from the world.
That is until Yong-jae, a photography major at a nearby university, moves into the apartment below her. In spite of her feigned disinterest, his good-natured antics begin to draw her out of her shell.
A simple story of love and friendship, the film could have easily ended up being contrived and patronizing. But instead, ``...ing is a young adults film in the best sense. Like the earlier films of John Hughes, ``...ing is successful at taking the teenagers world at face-value, warts and all.
But whereas most films about teenagers present the characters as trying to grow up too fast, ``...ing is happy to let kids be kids, enveloping the movie in a tenderness and sadness that feels surprisingly genuine.
Starring Kim Rae-won (MBC's "Rooftop Room Cat") , Yim Soo-jung and Lee Mi-sook, romance comedy "...ing" narrates a romantic love story in sorrow and in joy. Min-ah (Yim Soo-jung) is a typical high school girl dreaming of her romantic first love. She meets Young-jae (Kim Rae-won), a college student living next door, and begins dating with him.
As Min-ah goes out with Young-jae, she worries that he is not that devoted to her. Driven by her insecurity, she then tracks Young-jae to peek his female friends. Although Young-jae gradually gains her trust, Min-ah still hesitates to convince herself that her real love has arrived when she unveils her feeling to her mother Mi-sook (Lee Mi-sook).
