Into The Ring

Goo Se Ra is well-known at the service center of Mawon-gu Office for her endless civil complaints. Seo Gong Myung, who has recently been demoted for being on the chief’s bad side, is appointed to take care of the complaints. Although Se Ra does what’s right for people and the neighborhood, people seem to dislike her for her efforts. Eventually, she becomes jobless again.

This time, Se Ra loses her job because of the formal employee who has recently decided to return to the company. Devastated to see his daughter in a jobless situation, Se Ra’s father asks a favor from his old friend, Chairman Cho Maeng Duk. On her way back from rejecting the unrighteous employment, Se Ra sees a recruiting poster from Mawon-gu District Assembly.

Se Ra is determined to run the elections and take it as an opportunity. She gathers her friends around and starts campaigning with them. But things are not easy. Her parents are against it, her boyfriend is against it, and even one of her best friends, Woo Young passes her by.

The construction of a distribution center near an elementary school enrages the citizens of Mawon-gu. Se Ra and her friends seek this as an opportunity to gain votes. She stands in front of the protestors and shares her experience working as a part-timer stenographer, who was against the passing of the construction bill.

Knowing that Se Ra once tried to get a job in an unlawful way, people started to turn their backs on Se Ra as a district representative. Although she considers it’s time for her to let go of the election, Candidate Son Eun Sil understands that Se Ra has a higher chance of getting elected. Eventually, Se Ra does everything she can to win over people’s votes.

Now that the campaign is over, Se Ra goes into hibernation to recover from the long hours of a continuous campaign. When she wakes up from her sleep, she realizes that the difference in the number of votes isn’t that great. The result shows that the votes were tied, but the opponent requests a recount.
