Synopsis
Mi-yeong loved dancing and singing as a child, and her dream was to become a musical actress. Because of her bigger physique, her dreams are often made fun of by her friends, and by her early 30s, she's living as an ordinary office worker who lost her dreams. One day, Mi-yeong's video of herself unintentionally becomes a symbol of misogyny. Her videos are increasingly getting viral on the Internet, and as to escape from all this, Mi-yeong sets off on a solo trip and meets Dae-hyeon at a guesthouse. Dae-hyeon, who had a complex about his thin physique, became a symbol of male hatred on the Internet. These two are hurt by becoming targets of hatred among various people gathered at the guesthouse, but they understand and comfort each other.
