A thin man with a body covered in wounds runs in an alley that the audience immediately recognizes that we are in a city in a South East Asian country. This man was chased by three terrifying armed men.
How happy the poor man was when he met the local police who he thought could save him. But then the car came and Baek Chang-ki (Kim Mu-yeol) got out and immediately stabbed the police as casually as someone chopping vegetables. Shortly after, the man was stabbed several times.
