The condition is often referred to as "childhood Alzheimer's" because of the accompanying rapid mental and physical deterioration. Her single father, Hwi Cheol, is a swindler. While taking care of Geum Bi, he learns about the preciousness of life. Geum Bi's stern mother, Jang Joo Yeong, is estranged from Hwi Cheol and disapproves of everything he does.
