A tense romantic drama centered on infidelity and forbidden attraction, where a chance reunion ignites desire amid moral complications and social transgression.
Dongchul, who is managing a small bar, is always enthusiastic about his school reunions. One day, Yujin, who has never showed up to a reunion, shows up at his bar. Her baby face and vitality make her unlike other married women and all the men fall for her, especially Dongchul.
