“Finding the answer is important but identifying the problem is more important.”
Ji-woo (KIM Dong-hwi), an outcast in a prestigious private high school, does not fit in due to different social backgrounds than his well-to-do classmates. One day, he meets Hak-sung (CHOI Min-sik), the school’s security guard who is actually a mathematical genius defected from North Korea, now living with his past shut away. Ji-woo asks Hak-sung to teach him math, and although reluctant at first, Hak-sung eventually agrees to. Finding each other in their most difficult times, Ji-woo and Hak-sung open up to one another during their special math lessons, but their friendship is at risk when Ji-woo is framed for an incident in school, and Hak-sung is faced with people prying on his past.
학문의 자유를 갈망하며 탈북한 천재 수학자 `이학성`(최민식). 그는 자신의 신분과 사연을 숨긴 채 상위 1%의 영재들이 모인 자사고의 경비원으로 살아간다. 차갑고 무뚝뚝한 표정으로 학생들의 기피 대상 1호인 `이학성`은 어느 날 자신의 정체를 알게 된 뒤 수학을 가르쳐 달라 조르는 수학을 포기한 고등학생 `한지우`(김동휘)를 만난다. 정답만을 찾는 세상에서 방황하던 `한지우`에게 올바른 풀이 과정을 찾아나가는 법을 가르치며 `이학성` 역시 뜻하지 않은 삶의 전환점을 맞게 된다.
