A tightly wound domestic thriller that transforms a seemingly perfect marriage into a descent through betrayal, revenge, and psychological unraveling.

She couldn't be more content. Lee Tae Oh, her husband, is an aspiring movie director. However, when his temptation leads him to betray Sun Woo along with the people around her, she gets driven to revenge. The perilous twists-and-turns of a married couple's life unfolds.
