Overview
A mother works at a local apothecary and lives with her son. Her son, Do-joon, means the world to her. Do-joon, who is twenty-eight, is unruly and clumsy. He gets into minor accidents and worries his mother. One day, a girl in the neighborhood gets murdered, and Do-joon is framed for the crime. The mother does everything to save her son--but the police rush to close the case, and the lawyer is incompetent and money-hungry. Left with no one to trust, she takes her journey to save his son. As allegations against Do-joon grow stronger, she becomes desperate.
