On a train, a novelist meets Tae-ju, a young woman who resembles the protagonist of her novel in progress. Tae-ju runs away from damaging rumors to a seaside town. There, she meets Man-hyuk, a street magician, and feels drawn to him—only to hear unsettling rumors about him. Unsure of what to believe, Tae-ju visits a fortune-teller mentioned as being remarkably accurate.
