Jae-Mun is a seasoned veteran of the gang. Although a physically imposing black belt in Taekwondo, Chi-Guk is a soft-spoken newcomer to gang life, who is quietly offended by Jae-Mun's arbitrary and random acts of cruelty and rudeness against him and others. They travel to a remote town to perform an assassination of rival gangster Dae-Sik, who was responsible for the death of a friend of Jae-Mun. While waiting for an opportunity to perform the hit, Jae-Mun coincidentally befriends Dae-Sik's mother and spends some time with her. She comes to treat him as another son, even buying him clothing...
