The video features the story of Na Cheol-won, a fisherman who catches yellowtail during the winter season. Na said, "My daughter will love this," as he carried two yellowtails he caught in both hands and went to a familiar restaurant to slice sashimi himself. He explained, "This is for my daughter to eat. (Right now) is the best time for it, so I’m doing this for my daughter and the staff." Na then carried a box full of the sashimi he sliced to the hair salon where his eldest daughter works. Introducing himself as "Min-young’s dad," he brought the sashimi to the staff area inside the salon. He added, "I brought it so everyone can eat together."

Min-young, the daughter, said, "(This is) the second time (he’s done this), but I feel sorry," and shed tears of gratitude, saying, "(My father) may seem a bit rough, but he is very generous and warm-hearted." Busy with work, Min-young couldn’t even offer her father a cup of tea and had to go back inside. Na seemed to understand his daughter’s apologetic feelings and said, “Don’t keep the customers waiting, go in,” sending her off.
