A North Korean agent defects to the South to avenge the deaths of his wife and daughter, and goes on the run after being framed for the killing of a high-profile CEO in this action thriller from 7 Days director Won Shin-Yun. Ji Dong-chul (Gong Yoo) is a man without a country. For years he laid his life on the line for North Korea, but now his country has forsaken him. When his wife and daughter are murdered, Ji ventures to the South to punish the parties responsible. Landing a job as a driver in order to lie low, Ji is forced to flee for his life after he is accused of killing the company CEO. Now, before Ji can punish the people responsible for destroying his family, he must first clear his name by teaming with a reporter to get to the bottom of the vast conspiracy that has every cop in South Korea hot on his trail.
