Durant l'hiver 1636, alors que les Qings conquièrent la Chine, ils se tournent vers le royaume vassal de Joseon, en Corée, resté fidèle aux Mings. Le roi Injo et ses hommes refusent de se soumettre, retranchés dans une forteresse dans les montagnes de Namhansanseong. Tandis que l'ennemi est à ses portes, prêt à l'envahir, le roi est confronté aux avis divergents de deux de ses ministres. Alors que l'un, le ministre de l'intérieur Choi Myung-kil, le supplie de se remettre à l'envahisseur, Kim Sang-hun, chargé des rites préfère éviter l'humiliation de sa nation et se battre jusqu'au bout. Dans un hiver glacial, alors que le roi est malade et ses hommes souffrent du froid et de la faim, l'ultime bataille va se jouer autour de cette forteresse.

Oh Mal-soon, a 74-year-old widow, lives with her son and his family. She is foul-mouthed, stubborn, controlling and shameless, and has a difficult relationship with her depressed daughter-in-law Ae-ja. She is proud of her son Hyun-chul, a university professor of gerontology, and the fact that she managed to raise him by herself against all odds. One day, Ae-ja gets hospitalized after suddenly collapsing, and doctors strongly advise her to live apart from Mal-soon. On the day she is told by her son that she is being sent to a nursing home, the dismayed Mal-soon wanders the streets and comes across a mysterious photo studio that claims it captures the moments of one's youth. She takes what she believes will be her last self-portrait for her not-so-far-off funeral, but when she comes out of the studio, Mal-soon is dumbfounded by her own reflection in the mirror: a fresh, young 20-year-old woman.

Kang In-ho (Gong Yoo) is the newly appointed art teacher at Benevolence Academy, a deaf school children in the fictional city of Mujin, North Jeolla Province. He has a dark past - his wife was a high school student who committed suicide and his daughter is under the care of his mother. He is excited to teach his new students, yet the children are aloof and distant, trying to avoid running into him as much as possible. In-ho does not give up, however, trying to show the kids that he cares. When the children finally open up, In-ho faces the shocking and ugly truth about the school and what the students have been enduring in secret: the children are being physically and sexually abused by their teachers. When he decides to fight for the children’s rights and expose the crimes being committed at the school, In-ho teams up with human rights activist Seo Yoo-jin (Jung Yu-mi). But he and Yoo-jin soon realize the school’s principal and teachers, and even the police, prosecutors and churches in the community are actually trying to cover up the truth. In addition to using "privileges of former post" (Jeon-gwan ye-u) the accused do not hesitate to lie and bribe their way to get very light sentences.
