- Youth’s dream, independence, living on one’s own, miserable reality
After being discharged from the military, Oh Yeong-dae is excited at the thought of becoming financially independent and finding a place on his own. In a small, basement apartment he finally rents, he finds a notebook from the previous resident. It contains a story titled "The Eighth Room" written by a young female student, possibly Yeong-dae’s age. A few days prior, Yeong-dae had no answer to the question his crush had asked him: “What is your dream?” As he had been thinking a lot about himself since then, he begins to peruse the notebook, which is a record kept by a student who had been in a similar situation to himself.
