Police Kim (played by Jae Hyun Cho) who had been working in Seoul is advanced to an unfamiliar village, Shin-sun myeon. The village is so calm and quiet. But to the foreigner Kim’s eyes, it is a completely exclusive place of irksome everyday life. People assault drunk people, kids smoke weed, gangsters rape women, but villagers are innocent in this place. During a late night, teacher So Hee (played by Jin A Jeon) casts doubt on Young Sun’s suicide. She succumbs to the threats of Hyung Seok Ko, a town gangster. As he obsesses over her, she goes to officer Kim for help. But he could not change the fate of So Hee in this village that collapses before power and conspiracy. Finally, Kim runs into the power that is spread along the whole village, and realizes that Young Son’ death and So Hee’s fate were a small part of what that power did. He realizes the great power that makes the whole village limp and feels despair thinking how weak he was. But he searches for a solution for minority’s justice.
