Synopsis
On October 23, 1992, there was an improvised performance in the small auditorium of Washington in St. Louis, USA, without a separate stage and fancy equipment or effects.

With the front floor of the small auditorium as the stage, there are only small lights, props, and various lines that illuminate the stage in front with a chair and an amplifier.

And a poster on the wall behind is the only stage decoration.

Here, Kim Kwang Seok wears his guitar, on a chair, making eye contact with the audience while singing.

This film captures Kim Kwang Seok's improvised free live concert while traveling in the United States, staying alive to comfort the tired minds and bodies of the lonely students studying in another country.

The live performance was recorded with a personal camcorder and cannot be compared with modern high-definition video, but the echoes of that time filled with guitar sounds and sincere voices will be a real comfort for us now.
