In the future, a mysterious virus infects the whole world. People who are infected die in an instant and survivors embark on an endless journey to find a safe place. But the pandemic is not the only thing that threatens them. The world has become a place where illegal and immoral acts are committed, and survivors have to protect themselves from violence such as robbery, rape, and murder.
People lose faith in humanity, and all their emotions gradually fade away. Those who left Korea and arrived in Russia happen to meet each other, which was not possible if they were not faced with hardships in Korea. They are a married couple Ryu and Dan who have lost their passion for each other due to their busy lives, a boy Geonji who has lived a hopeless life suffering from violence both at home and school, Dori who has managed to make a living while caring for her deaf and mute sister Miso, and Jina who always tries to protect her valuable items, even when facing a disastrous situation.
