In Seoul, where impossible beauty standards and ruthless social hierarchies dictate your every move, four women are balancing on a razor's edge : Kyuri, a beautiful "room salon" girl paid to entertain wealthy businessmen after hours. Miho, an artist whose life becomes enmeshed with the offspring of the super-wealthy elite. Ara, a hairstylist whose obsession with a K-pop star leads her to violent extremes. Wonna, their neighbour, pregnant with a child that she can't afford.
