After her fiancé’s new girlfriend proudly reveals their marriage plan, Yumi decided to walk away from everything. She could not go back to Korea easily because her family would be more angry over her fiancé’s affair. While wondering in an unfamiliar city, she visits a guesthouse at the end of a street.
