Before After is divided into sections based on time. It shows the changes that occur before and after a devastating event. A time before and after is created after a tragic, irreversible event. What experiences do we go through that make us realize that an event has affected "our" lives? The play Before After begins by answering this question.

Soo-yeon Sung has gradually witnessed the death of her father who has cancer. San-ha Chae feels indebted after his friend's death. Sung-ik Jang, who has almost lost his sight due to the assault he suffers in the hands of the government , has fallen into a state of helplessness. Da-huin Kim is trekking in the Himalayas on April 16, 2014. Kyung-min Na retraces those times gone by from his diary and memories. Su-jin Jang dramatizes the actions and feelings of the government.

The play uses a pivotal event in our society that intersects with before and after events that occur in different people's lives. What happens as a point in "my" time on stage suddenly meets "your" space.
