It follows five Korean Americans on a birthday celebration. Each has their own internal struggles which are all resolved in the film. There’s Sunny (Sunn Wee) who runs his father’s liquor store, Danny (Danny Cho) as a struggling comedian, Peter (Peter Jae) who plays the ladies man, Robby (Bobby Choy), an adopted Korean and Jason (Shane Yoon) who heads his Uncle’s company.
It is produced by comedian Ken Jeong who makes a cameo.
