After being raised in an orphanage, Se-jeong is facing both her high school graduation as well as her release from the facility. As she works in a salon and tries to prepare for her future, suddenly a woman, Eun-sook, comes looking for her. –Eun-sook, the woman who saved Se-jeong's life from a fire at the single mothers' care facility where she used to live, so long ago that she no longer remembers it. Eun-sook claims to have been diagnosed with a terminal illness and asks Se-jeong for a loan of 5 million Won, which is the exact amount of Se-jeong's support grant from her orphanage. Although she has suspicions that Eun-sook may be trying to scam her, Se-jeong is moved to help. For an impoverished and lonely young woman who has only just started out on her own in an unkind world, Eun-sook, armed with her eccentricity and unusual lifestyle, becomes an unexpectedly excellent guardian. SAVE is a film that looks closely at women who find their own ways through the world rather than seeking the world's compassion and understanding.
