THE TRUNK tells the story of Noh In Ji (Seo Hyun Jin), an employee at the marriage counseling agency New Marriage (NM), who meets her fifth client, Han Jeong Won (Gong Yoo). Han Jeong Won is a music producer who carries emotional burdens from the past that often make him feel anxious and lonely.

In an effort to mend his relationship with his ex-girlfriend, Lee Seo Yeon (Jung Yun Ha), Han Jeong Won starts to use the marriage service after being encouraged by Seo Yeon. He begins to live with Noh In Ji, even though it feels awkward and uncomfortable.

Although their relationship is only temporary, Jeong Won's life slowly changes thanks to In Ji's presence. The nightmares that have haunted him for so long start to appear less frequently, and he can sleep soundly without needing tranquilizers. Over time, In Ji also begins to feel more comfortable with Jeong Won's presence.
