Makdong is a naive young man who returns home after serving in the army. He now wishes to start working, become affluent, and support his family. Unfortunately, when he arrives home he finds the area (the outskirts of Seoul, South Korea) is economically depressed, and his family are not the close, loving unit he wishes them to be. Making money proves to be much more difficult than he anticipated, as jobs are extremely scarce. Organized crime offers lucrative employment, as the area is controlled by gangs. A chance encounter with a young woman leads him to meet a gang boss who seems to be a little more respectable than most, and when he's told he won't have to break the law, he accepts a job. The boss takes a liking to Makdong's simplicity and straightforward character and looks after him, to the resentment of other gang members. Despite the promise of legitimacy, Makdong gets drawn further into a criminal life.
