Ha Eun is a 36-year-old housewife with a teenage daughter and a husband who is a K-1 champion. Docile and gentle in nature, Ha Eun endured 13 years of physical abuse from her controlling, sexist husband. But upon witnessing her husband assaulting her own child, a shred of reality sets in and her search for the path to freedom begins. During her husband's K-1 press conference, Ha Eun lashes out against him, boldly inviting him to a K-1 challenge. Only three months till the fight but with most gyms refusing to accept any females, Ha Eun finds herself at loss until reluctant help arrives - Soo Hyun, a scruffy-looking ex-math teacher who has never lifted a finger at anyone in his life. But Soo Hyun comes to believe in her and becomes her unlikely coach, passing down the techniques he learns the night before at a training gym to Ha Eun the next day. No longer a damsel in distress, Ha Eun gets ready for payback time!
