Minyoung is a shy high school girl suffering from depression and bulimia. She is mercilessly bullied by her classmates, especially the sadistic Taeyong and his posse. One day, she is rescued by a sympathetic classmate who introduces her to transhumanism, a process where electrical shocks to the brain cause a person to "wake up to reality" through electrical baptism. Now, fully empowered, she plans revenge for the boys that have brutally bullied her.
