Despite being mentally disabled and unable to defend himself, Young Gu is sentenced to death. His 4-year-old daughter, Ye Seung, is left in an orphanage. While Young Gu is in prison, his cellmates always help him whenever he wants to meet with Ye Seung. But as the day of Young Gu's execution approaches, there is not much anyone can do.
