The hero, Mamiya Shinjuro, earned his embalmer's license in the United States, but for reasons that will probably be easier to understand once the series starts, he is working in a Tokyo hospital as a janitor.

In the premiere episode, a friend of one of the nurse's is killed in an accident. The woman had just been made the principal soloist in a ballet company and was about to get married to the man of her dreams. The woman's fiancee, hearing of Mamiya's special skills, asks him to restore her corpse to the way she looked when she was alive.

고인이 유족들과 생전의 모습으로 좋은 작별을 할 수 있도록, 사체의 손상된 부분을 복원해 화장하고, 약품 처리를 통해 소독 및 방부 처치 등을 행하는 '엠바머'의 이야기를 그리는 드라마
