A town with no future, and no hope. Seventeen-year old Yeon-gyu (HONG Xa-bin) was born
in this place, and has never been to anywhere else. While enduring the repeated violence
inflicted by his stepfather, he saves up money in the lone hope of moving to the
Netherlands with his mother. Chi-geon (SONG Joong-ki), born and raised in this town, is now
a mid-level boss in a criminal organization. Having learned early in life that this world is hell,
he gets by in his own way. One day Yeon-gyu gets into a fight to protect his stepsister Hayan
(KIM Hyoung-seo).

Unable to raise the settlement money, Yeon-gyu is helped by Chi-geon, and in that way
Yeon-gyu comes to start a new life as a member of Chi-geon’s gang. Although scared and
awkward, Yeon-gyu gradually adjusts with the help of Chi-geon who is like an older brother
to him. Having earned Chi-geon’s trust while fighting to survive in the gang, Yeon-gyu begins
to fall into more and more dangerous circumstances.
