Kim Mun-hee is a 32-year-old divorced woman. She engages in an affair with 19-year-old Seo-hyun, who considers Kim to be his first love. However, under Korean law, the age of consent for sex is 20.
Kim is arrested and has to spend a few days in prison for seduction of a minor, before she is set free and sentenced to do some hours of community service. When she is released, the press and Seo-hyun wait for her outside the prison.
Kim and Seo-hyun rent a room and stay there for some time, spending much of their time having sex. Kim slowly starts to understand that this relationship won't work forever, and wants to split up with Seo-hyun. But he insists that he really loves her, and that he won't let her go. The two find shelter at the home of a friend of Mun-hee, Su-jin.
