A melancholic romance between two doomed souls—a suicidal woman and a death-row inmate—that finds tenderness and meaning in their fleeting connection despite the darkness surrounding them.

Yu-jeong is suicidal, yet she reluctantly goes to prison for volunteer work. There, she meets a prisoner who is waiting for death penalty. The two quickly fall in love despite their differences, yet they do not have much time.
