<synopsis>

SEONGCHEUL OH is a man out of parole but the tracker on his ankle reminds him that he is otherwise. He wants to be a changed man. He struggles with his inner demons by living a harsh life as a manual laborer, living in a dilapidated low rise apartment and continually going to see his psychiatrist. However, the fragile balance of his equilibrium is tested when he loses his construction job and he must work as a cab driver. He must truly test his desire to live as a member of society.

HYEONGDO KIM is a broken man. He is a family man that is burdened with the experience of a parents’ worst nightmare. He goes through the motions of life until one day he sees Seongcheul by coincidence. The desire to have his revenge consumes him, and when he sees Seongcheul drawn to a nine year old girl he becomes obsessed with stopping him.

In Hyeongdo’s close surveillance of Seongcheul, his fate falls into his hands when he stumbles upon the scene of Seongcheul’s body struggling on a noose.
