Then a 19-year-old intern, Joon, arrives but does not adjust well to the workplace that’s completely different from what he had initially expected. Se-yeon tells Joon that she also faced tough times and encourages him to think of the experience as a “life lesson” instead of thinking of the job as giving up his dream.

One night, Joon is making a phone call, pushing a client to pay her debt, and, after instructions from Se-yeon to get the job done no matter what, heads to collect the debt in person.

Joon finds the defaulter dead. Then, Joon turns up dead.

Se-yeon begins to receive messages from Joon about the clues leading up to the events of that fateful night.
