Synopsis: Ye-boon searches for the remains or any traces of her young granddaughter, who drowned in the river a year prior. Still feeling guilty about her granddaughter’s death, Ye-boon spends her days in pain. Meanwhile, Ok-im, Ye-boon’s old friend in the village, passes away from an illness. Ye-boon briefly takes care of Jiyeoon, Ok-im’s granddaughter and her own deceased granddaughter’s friend. Ye-boon and Jiyoon, a corpse shrouder and a middle school swimmer, or a grandmother who lost her granddaughter and a granddaughter who lost her grandmother, suddenly come to live together just like that.
