Day 1


Mina, Suna and their parents lives together in a cramped apartment building. Mina is a Korean girl going into her senior year in high school. Her little sister Suna is half deaf and requires hearing aids, and lots of attention. Mina's mother is constantly annoyed with Suna, and puts pressure on Mina to get good grades so she'll be able to go to Harvard. Mina knows it's impossible for her to go to Harvard or even attend an university with the grades she's getting. Mina's parents own a drycleaners, which doesn't make a lot of money. Their wealthy friend, Mrs. Kim and her stuck-up son gets on Mina's nerves a lot with their perfect life. Because of their low income, Mina has to sacrifice her personal life and study time to continually help her parents out at the drycleaners. She does not get paid, but she does find another way to get some money.
