When her missing classmate and close friend Kyung-min (Jeon So-nee) is suspected of committing suicide, Young-hee (Jeon Yeo-been) becomes the prime suspect because she was the last one seen with Kyung-min on the night of her disappearance. Young-hee faces accusations from Kyung-min's mother (Seo Young-hwa) as well as her quick-to-condemn classmates. She insists on her innocence and tries to find out the truth on her own.
