    Synopsis Hyo-jeong, a 69-year-old woman, is raped by a male caregiver. She informs it to Dong-in who lives with her and reports to the police but few people, including the police, are willing to believe her words. Most people question whether that handsome young man really would have done so. Only Dong-in, who loves Hyo-jeong dearly, is cooing to free her from her injustice but even himself feels difficult to trust her wholeheartedly.
    Meanwhile, the male caregiver claims that it was a consensual sexual relationship and the court rejects the arrest warrant on the caregiver. Now Hyo-jeong is up to a plan by herself.
