## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

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.

**Mood tags**: foreign-gem, bittersweet, tender
