Synopsis
On the outside, he looks perfect, but in reality, he lives a stereotypical life, an internist named Chi-seong. But one day, a boy named Yeong-jae comes to visit him. Yeong-jae, who calls himself an orphan, claims that he was born with sperm that Chi-seong sold 17 years ago. He demands compensation from Chi-seong, claiming that he has a congenital defect, also known as a defect. It seems absurd to Chi-seong, but Yeong-jae threatens Chi-seong to pay 100 million won, using the illegality of sperm trading as an excuse. Chi-seong, who has been dragged around by Yeong-jae, tries to fight back. He wants to check whether his defect is really his responsibility or not. With this, the two begin a defect check to see if Yeong-jae's defect is also present in Chi-seong, or in other words, if it really originated from Chi-seong. In the meantime, Chi-seong accidentally finds out that Yeong-jae used to be a track and field athlete, but quit because of a congenital heart disease. Of course, Chi-seong does not have such a heart disease. But what is concerning is that genetic factors can contribute to the cause of the heart disease. In addition, Chi-seong recalls that he also did boxing when he was young, and gradually finds a sense of kinship between himself and Yeong-jae. However, as their relationship takes a different turn, another person comes between them. It is Dong-seok, Yeong-jae's father who raised him. As it turns out, Yeong-jae is not an orphan, but ran away from Dong-seok for a while. However, due to Dong-seok's internal deficiency, the relationship between the three does not end. Dong-seok was a father who tried to restrain Yeong-jae due to his own inferiority complex and sense of entitlement, and was also obsessed with him. In this way, the relationship between the three gradually becomes entangled in the wrong way, leading to conflict and confrontation.
