Synopsis:

Once upon a time there was a very pretty young lady named Pong suni who lived in a village. However, Pong suni had been bullied by kids in her neighborhood since her fart was very smelly and fearful. One day, one of the street kids, Gab doli, is nearly killed by a tiger and Pong suni saves him with her smelly and explosive fart. Saved by her powerful fart, Gab doli feels so sorry for Pong suni that he falls in love with her and later marries her. Her parents-in-law like pretty and naive Pong suni so much, but when she gets sick they wonder why she gets paler each day. She tells them that it's because of her longing to fart. After getting permission from her new family, she finally farts. . . and the disaster begins. . .
