""I made my husband late on his first day of work. I feel really lousy today." It is the first day that Jun-tae goes to work. Even though he seems a little immature and clumsy, he is a faithful husband. I tossed and turned all night because our 6-month-old baby, Song-i had kept up me late. Not having much of a sleep, I am like a zombie all day since morning. It is the first day of work and I forgot to serve breakfast. I feel sorry I gave him a shirt with one part of its back burnt during ironing. Oh well! In order to lighten up, I go to a volleyball game after a long absence. "I have once been a great player".... However, standing in the midst of the court with a baby on my back, I feel a sense of alienation. It feels like the court doesn't belong to me anymore. I feel lousy again. I, Geum-sun, am having one of the worst days. I am wondering why my husband has not come home. A phone rings. It is one weird phone call. "This is Vivre Sa Vie. Come and get your husband!" "What are you talking about?" "He came here and drank lots of drinks without having any money! What are we supposed to do? Come here before we cut his abdomen open!" "What are you talking about? My husband is drunk? How many bottles of soju did he drink to spend 1.7 million won? Wow, that is amazing. No, no. There is no time to be grieving over that." Geum-sun has no idea what is going on but being scared by the threat, she takes Song-i along. It is the first time that she's ever gone to the later-night amusement village. "Where is the bar that keeps my husband?" She is searching through the amusement village with brightly lit by neon signs. Just then she sees all kinds of things happening there. "I burn with justice." She causes an irreparable "event" by trying to teach a guy a lesson. Geum-sun makes a critical mistake by messing with the Yangdongi crime ring's acting boss, "Baeksa", who wears all white. This causes her to be the target of Yangdongi. The night of a big entwined chase is about to begin. A sudden appearance of an "aunt" causes chaos in the amusement center which used to have somewhat order before.
