[edit]

Go Bok-su (Yang Dong-geun) has had a difficult childhood and served time in prison. He has a longtime girlfriend, Song Mi-rae (Gong Hyo-jin) who is a cheerleader of the LG Twins. Jeon Kyung (Lee Na-young), a moody tomboy and a daughter of a rich family, is the keyboardist of an unknown indie rock band.[3]

The lead female vocalist of Kyung's band is diagnosed with a brain injury due to an accident, and her fellow band members try to earn money for the surgical procedure that might save her life. Kyung begs her father, an authoritative hotel owner, but is unable to get the funds. One day Bok-su steals Kyung's wallet which contains the money for the operation.
