An old man (Jeon Seong-hwang) maintains it as a fishing platform for tourists with the help of a beautiful 16-year-old girl (Han Yeo-reum) who appears to be mute.

The stories sound farfetched, as does the idea that the old man is also a fortune teller, but they all turn out to be basically true.

He predicts fortune by shooting three arrows at a Bodhisattva image on the side of the boat as the girl swings dangerously in front of it.

The old man's arrangements start to come apart when the boat is visited by a fishing party that includes a sweet-natured student (Seo Ji-seok) who falls in love with the girl at first sight and is profoundly concerned about her situation.

She, too, falls for him, and the old man starts to fear that his marriage day, carefully marked on his calendar, may never come to pass.

The student comes to take her away as her parents are searching for her still, but the old man tries to prevent them from leaving by shooting arrows at him but she stands in front.

However, the girl acts as though someone is having sex with her and suddenly the arrow shot earlier strikes between her legs in the plank.
