Summary
The drama centres on Ma Dong‑chan, a prominent television producer, and Go Mi‑ran, a part‑time worker burdened by significant family debt. Both become test subjects in the 24‑Hour Frozen Human Project, an experimental procedure intended to preserve them in a frozen state for one day. The experiment malfunctions, resulting in the pair remaining frozen for twenty years.
Upon revival, Dong‑chan and Mi‑ran must maintain a body temperature below 33°C to survive the long‑term effects of the procedure. As they attempt to resume their lives, they confront unresolved personal matters and the profound social, technological, and cultural changes that have occurred during their absence. Their efforts to adapt to the modern world are further complicated by Mi‑ran’s ongoing need to repay her family’s debts, creating a narrative that blends science‑fiction elements with contemporary human drama.
