 The blind 'Sim' having opened his eyes became a medicine peddler. He is a story-medicine peddler who sells not only medicine but also his story about opening his eyes. After finishing his enjoyable story-telling, he went to his ex-wife Kwak's cemetery where 'Chung' was waiting for him. After performing an ancestral rite informally for Kwak, he told a story to Chung. And he began a rite for Kwak in earnest...

Theater company ‘Geukakmudo‘ that means 'There is no right answer and limit' create plays in Korean traditional language. Organized with people from Korean Traditional Arts Korea National University of Arts in 2012, now with experts at plays, band and etc., they are trying to create the most Korean styled plays.

 The process which Korean instruments, band and actors dramatize a story together is not just an external fusion but a new dissolution and reconstitution that only 'Geukamudo' can show. They always express 'the world people live in' by story and sound.
