Hae-rim, a nurse's aide, takes care of a paralyzed patient named Cheol-oh who is in need of a heart transplant. To obtain Cheol-oh's wealth, his son Sang-woo is determined to do everything in his power to extend his father's life. One day, a comatose young woman named Mi-na is brought to the hospital after a mysterious accident. In exchange for a sum of money, Hae-rim agrees to Sang-woo's instructions that she track down Mi-na's family and get them to sign an organ donation consent form.
