Synopsis: Hae-Gwan is a middle-aged man whose daughter Yoo-Joo has been missing for over ten years. People around him tell him that she died in the blaze that engulfed Daegu subway station in 2003, but Hae-Gwan refuses to give up the idea that she is still alive and is just missing. He keeps on looking for her. His search takes him to an island where he discovers the NASA satellite S19 washed up on a beach. This is more than just space junk, it is a highly sophisticated AI robot which monitors and stores every conversation made on a phone from anywhere in the world. The satellite is so advanced, it developed a personality of its own and deliberately crashed on Earth to search for someone. Hae-Gwan thinks he can find his daughter with the help of the robot which he names Sori (Korean for “Sound”). While the two search for Yoo-Joo, NASA, the NSA, and South Korean intelligence agents are searching for them.
