The person you never forget has actually never forgotten you. In Seattle, USA, at the junction of Chinatown and Japantown, there is an old building that has been closed for 36 years. The narrow double doors read "Panama Hotel". More than forty years ago, this hotel witnessed the sweet and tragic moments of Henry's life. Today, more than forty years later, the hotel reopened, and people accidentally discovered that there were luggage belonging to thirty-seven Japanese families hidden in the basement. Old Henry, who happened to pass by the hotel, discovered that there was an old thing he was familiar with in his luggage - a Japanese paper umbrella with a koi painted on it. Memories that had been dusty for a long time were instantly awakened: broken old records, falling cherry blossoms, cruel concentration camps, and a girl who suddenly left. After all these years, he had never really forgotten that girl. Forty-four years, where is she? Is she waiting for him too?
