Theysit in Drama / Romance territory. If that's the register that drew you to Christmas in August, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Contact is

Even two decades ago, Seoul’s airwaves hummed with more than weather reports. A radio host chasing a vinyl-sent ghost and a call-center operator pining after a taken man somehow found connection through static and soundtracks. The only thing clearer than their longing? The dial never quite hits the right frequency.
