About K-Number
In the early 1970s, Mioka was found by chance on the street, unable to remember her own name. As the years passed, she traveled to Korea multiple times in search of her birth family. Each time, however, she returned with manipulated documents and concealed records. What is the truth behind the K-Number, and what secrets lie hidden within the missing files? Across time and borders, a long-buried truth begins to surface.
