A five-year-long cross-border mother-in-law/daughter-in-law battle forced a 75-year-old South Korean mother-in-law to build her own "refuge" kitchen in a storage room. The strict and pragmatic mother-in-law and the free-spirited Vietnamese daughter-in-law constantly argued, from terms of address and housework to tone of voice. The son, caught in the middle, was exhausted. The mother-in-law couldn't understand why her daughter-in-law refused to do simple chores. The daughter-in-law felt wronged, wondering why she had never received a word of recognition from her mother-in-law.
A turning point came during a visit to her mother's family in Vietnam. There, the mother-in-law met her daughter-in-law, who was pampered by the whole family, witnessing her amazing strength and cheerful smile, and feeling the warmth and apology from her in-laws. The daughter-in-law, under her mother's patient guidance, finally realized her own problems…
As they set foot on that unfamiliar land, their misunderstandings began to melt away in the familiar taste of home. Could this journey allow this mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to put aside their prejudices and embrace each other?
