A group of friends are meeting the day before they are scheduled to go to Gimpo airport and meet another friend who has been working in the Middle East.  The domestic group decide that their absent friend “deserves a heroes welcome” as he is returning for the first time in 13 months. There is a bit of backstory of how the hero ended up overseas (chicanery and deceit in a local firm for which he worked), and some note of letters he has sent them home.   Source: http://www.ktlit.com/review-our-friends-homecoming-들아온-우리의-친구-by-shin-sang-ung-신-상-웅/
