Due to an unplanned pregnancy, twenty-something former volleyball star Geum-soon is now a married housewife with a young daughter.

While she struggles to get their house ready, Joo-tae is taken out for a drink with his new colleagues. Later that evening, Geum-soon gets a phone call from a nightclub owner who is holding her husband hostage, claiming that he has run up a huge bill and does not have the money to pay for it.
