The show begins with ten strangers being invited to an isolated island for a weekend. They all have different backgrounds, professions, and personalities.

The mysterious host of the island, who remains unknown throughout the show, accuses them of crimes that they have committed in their past. The tension builds up among them, and they start suspecting each other. They soon realize that they are stranded on the island, cut off from the outside world, and there is no way out. One by one, they start dying in mysterious circumstances that reflect the punishments required for each of their specific crimes.

They try to figure out who among them is the killer, but they soon realize that the murderer is among them, and they are all in danger.
