Three people, one island, zero sanity left between them.
A man who protects the island and his woman, Soo-hee, live on a remote island that is nothing more than an uninhabited island. And Bok-soon, who lost her mind after being abandoned by the man she loved. This is an island where only three people live, even if they die. Then one day, a photographer who seems to be holding something secret comes to the island. However, the man who guards the island misunderstands the visitor and kills him because of it. Bok-soon, who loved the dead photographer, commits suicide upon seeing the photographer's death. A man who has gone mad after killing someone hears a story from Soo-hee, who lives with him, and only later finds out all the secrets...
