There were times when Ije was ashamed of his criminal father and hearing-impaired mother, but he never hid them. Three years ago, he tried to save a pregnant woman with a disability who was in a car accident. But because of Lee Jaehwan, the son of the chairman of the hospital, he was wrongfully accused of medical malpractice and gets ousted from the hospital.

After the incident, he started working as a public health doctor at a prison, where he realizes that prison is the most lucrative spot in the country due to the fact that a diagnosis and a note from the chief medical officer are required in order for politicians and economic offenders to be granted stay of execution or medical treatment outside of the prison.
