Plot
Sang-won loses his wife in a sudden accident, leaving him alone with his daughter, Yi-na. In an effort to mend their strained relationship, he decides to move into a new house. Despite Sang-won's attempts to grow closer to Yi-na, the emotional distance between them remains. One day, however, Yi-na starts smiling again, telling him she has made a new friend. But their peace is short-lived. Strange noises begin emanating from the closet in Yi-na's room, and she starts exhibiting unusual symptoms. Soon after, Sang-won himself begins having disturbing dreams. Then, without a trace, Yi-na disappears.
As Sang-won desperately searches for his daughter, a mysterious man named Kyung-hoon approaches him, claiming to know her whereabouts. The place he points to is none other than Yi-na's closet. Kyung-hoon, who has been investigating the disappearance of missing children for the past ten years, reveals an unbelievable story. Clinging to the hope of finding his daughter, Sang-won reaches out toward the closet.
