Finding Joy tells the story of Lukas, a frustrated writer who feels trapped by the expectations of his ambitious wife Brita. Then he meets Joy, a Korean dance student, under strange circumstances and spends a wonderful night with her before they go their separate ways. Lukas tries to work on his relationship but can't quite shake the memory of his encounter with Joy and eventually decides to drop everything to go and look for her. He arrives in Seoul with no contact details for her, only the vague idea that he'll find her if it's meant to be.

Lukas se sent pris au piège des attentes de son épouse ambitieuse. Il rencontre ensuite Joy, une étudiante en danse coréenne, dans des circonstances étranges et passe une nuit merveilleuse avec elle avant qu'ils ne se séparent. Lukas essaie de travailler sur sa relation mais ne peut pas vraiment ébranler le souvenir de Joy et décide finalement de tout laisser tomber pour la retrouver.
