Additional information
Nam-wu lives with his grandmother and mother after losing his father to a
tragic accident in a small village by the sea. He and his best friend Jun-ho
are both 12 years old and they hang out with Yo, the cat. One day, he sees a
mysterious bead that gives out a strange light at a local store. He worries
over it that night and goes back there to buy it but it's no longer there.
Disappointed, he hangs out with Yo by the lighthouse. When Yo runs inside
the lighthouse, Nam-wu follows it. There he finds the bead on a shelf. When
the light hits the bead, the lighthouse transforms into a magical place. As
Nam-wu plummets into a pit, a young girl reaches out for him in the nick of
time. Nam-wu tells Jun-ho about his fantastic experience but he doesn't
believe him. The two visit the lighthouse again and meet Ma-ri, the girl from
a fantasy land. The two share this secret between them. But as the two pass
their days with Ma-ri, Nam-wu's grandmother collapses and a storm that
hits the village puts Jun-ho's father in jeopardy…
