SYNOPSIS

In South Korean society, an apartment is not just a place to live, but a symbol of its owner’s wealth and social class. Therefore, the rise in apartment prices due to redevelopment is seen by the middle class as a desperate way to increase their wealth and move up the social ladder. Ik-seon, a middle-aged man, is being forced out of the company he has worked for for 20 years. Now, as the representative of the apartment building, his only remaining goal is to see the redevelopment project through. But when he returns from a business trip, Ik-seon hears about a tenant in apartment 403 who is proving to be a nuisance.
