Woo-hyeon's mother gave up her first love due to the circumstances of the times and lives with her current husband. Father stays with Mother, who is unable to forget her first love, and takes care of Woo-hyeon, who is not his own son. Then Woo-hyeon has a seizure after losing both legs in the army and lives like an animal. Mother wanders through the red light district, searching for Woo-hyeon. Meanwhile, Woo-hyeon’s younger brother Ki-hyeon falls in love with Woo-hyeon’s ex-girlfriend, Soon-mee, and marries her. But when Soon-mee finds out that Ki-hyeon takes Woo-hyeon to brothels, she asks Ki-hyeon to disguise her as a prostitute and take her to Woo-hyeon. They all give up their love and lives like giving trees.
