The narrator meets Jo Seung-ho by chance at a meeting to celebrate the publication of a novelist's new book. Jo suggests going hiking to J-eup on the last night of the year, where a secret event is being held. When the narrator follows Jo to the top of Mt. Jewang, there are people holding torches and dancing strangely. This event is said to be a one-day event a year to shed all relationships, exchange greetings, and confirm the secret power. The narrator knows this experience is a shocking one that would make a great fiction story, but Jo tells him not to write about it. However, the narrator ignores his words and write a story about the experience.
