Lee Ji Soo is a twice-divorced funeral director and no stranger to death or loss. She reunites with old friend Baek Jong Woo when he arranges for funeral services for his deceased mother.

Ji Soo deals with death every day and doesn't think twice about Jong Woo's disease, and the two fall in love and get married. As Jong Woo's symptoms continue to worsen and he begins to lose control over his body, he lashes out at Ji Soo. Despite her hurt, all Ji Soo wants is to stay by his side and hope for a cure.
