action
The hardened ex-gangster bride Kyeong-seon, a middle-aged woman, makes ends meet as a taxi driver to pay off the gambling debts of her husband in hiding with the underworld boss Geum-bok. In addition, their bleak everyday life is threatened by bizarre debt collectors; her little daughter has also been missing for years. One day, Kyeong-seon's taxi is rammed by the lively singer Su-ji's sports car as she tries to escape her shabby friend Dok-bul, a beating ex-boxer and gang leader. The two women disadvantaged by fate find each other.
After some time, the two of them develop a plan out of chronic financial difficulties: They want to deprive the always disgruntled gang leader and competitor Dok-bul from the income from an illegal dogfighting event that he organizes for his boss Geum-bok. The tricky coup succeeds, but the duo is initially separated. Meanwhile, several people express interest in the stolen betting income. In addition to the horned Dok-bul, the underworld king Geum-bok, a trio of debilitating young gangsters and the local police try to seize the fugitive women. As a result, the individual groups fight each other in a partly opaque game of power and greed for money. In the end, almost all gangsters are killed. After exhausting arguments, the money stolen from Kyeong-seon and Su-ji is snatched from young gangsters.
At the end of the film, the destitute women dream of a happy future, unaware that part of the booty is hidden in their car.
