Overview
A perverted couple, Soo-hee and Yoon-soo, tried to create the world's first VR, real-looking sex game. The truth behind their successful sex game, however, is that it turns out to be fake, and they hire Yoon-soo's friend, Min-woo, to make it look and feel real. But problems arise when their customers, one of whom is Soo-hee's junior Min-woo, have already become addicted to their game, and Min-woo can't keep up.
