“A heavy burden of life, they find solace in each other.”
Park Dong-hoon is a middle-aged structural engineer enduring a miserable life marked by a dead-end job, an unfaithful wife, and burdensome brothers. Lee Ji-an is a fierce, debt-ridden twenty-something temp worker exhausted by the harsh realities of caring for her ill grandmother and evading loan sharks. Their paths cross when Dong-hoon accidentally receives a massive bribe meant for someone else, prompting Ji-an to steal it to pay off her debts. As Ji-an is hired by Dong-hoon's corrupt boss to dig up dirt on Dong-hoon to get him fired, she begins secretly eavesdropping on him through an illegal wiretap. However, as she listens to his quiet integrity, immense empathy, and quiet suffering, she finds herself unexpectedly healing. Together, the two form an unlikely and profound bond, understanding each other's deep scars and offering a quiet, steadfast comfort through the crushing weight of their everyday lives.
