In his drunken voice, he leaves strange remarks, “Don’t become like your aunt.” Juyeon discovers the story of her aunt whose existence was systematically erased from the family history - and the tragic suicide that may have been linked to dating violence, unrecorded and unacknowledged simply because the victim was female. Stunned by the family secret, she starts chasing the traces of her aunt, who has a striking resemblance to her. Juyeon breaks the suffocating silence and recreates her aunt’s lost voice through animation.

    "We’ll win at least once, right?” Woo-jin’s win rate as a coach is less than 10%! Dismissed, expelled, bankrupt, kicked out, divorced... Even in life, he’s experiencing defeat after defeat. Then, Pink Storm, a pro volleyball team that is on the brink of disbanding, brings him on as their coach.
