This story begins when a 14-year-old ordinary girl named Chunji hangs herself with knitting material. Her sister Manji, who cannot understand why she has done this, follows the evidence that her sister has left behind. Soon, Manji finds the painful truth. A close friend of hers named Hwayeon used Chunji to protect her position among her friends, and Chunji's family, who loved Chunji deeply, didn't know what was happening to her.
