Synopsis
Yeong-jin and Jin-hyeon are social workers. Yeong-jin, who wears the same clothes every day, is often late. A few days later, Jin-hyeon encounters Yeong-jin coming out from under a bridge on his way to work. After hearing the whole story, Yeong-jin says that he doesn't have a room of his own at his father's house, so he is sleeping under a bridge. First, he lets Yeong-jin stay at his house. As Jin-hyeon spends more time with Yeong-jin, he gradually becomes more interested in her.

Soon-pil is an elderly person who uses the facilities of the welfare center. Soon-pil visits Jin-hyeon and complains about her difficulties and makes an unreasonable request. Since then, Soon-pil often visits Jin-hyeon to complain about the relationship between her and her son.

One day, when he was busy with work, Jin-hyeon forgot Yeong-jin and came home alone. When he got home, he thought of Yeong-jin and brought her home. Jin-hyeon, who was burdened by the whole situation, expressed his situation and inner feelings to Yeong-jin without filtering them. The next day, Yeong-jin disappeared without reporting for work and did not come to work the next day.
