Eun-young is a school nurse who is the only one able to see the jellies. She faces the greatest challenge of her life when she battles these supernatural creatures. Fortunately, she discovers that In-pyo has a special energy that recharges her powers and protects her. With the help of the man who had been the cause as well as the cure, she wages war against the Jellies to defend the school and the students.

The fun and magical world of the School Nurse Files will be explored by the fantastic team of Jung Yu-mi as Ahn Eun-young and Nam Joo-hyuk as Hong In-pyo.
