Seo-ah has been secretly taking contraceptives for a year behind her husband Tae-hyuk’s back. While she continued to engage in sexual relations as he desired, she eventually uses their inability to conceive as a pretext to demand a divorce. However, as if he knew everything all along, Tae-hyuk scoffs at the pills she takes.

"If you want a divorce, give me my child."

She ends up conceiving his child, but Tae-hyuk realizes that Seo-ah can only be happy if she is away from him, so he lets her go. Seven years later, his repressed feelings—his child, his woman—resurface as a wicked obsession.
