In a dystopian republic ruled by a brutal dictatorship, Jeong Ryujin, a rebel from an underground resistance group, is captured during a failed mission. He’s offered a cruel deal: infiltrate the inner circle of the regime’s heir, Crown Prince Kwon Sehyuk, or face death.
Ryujin accepts—but only to exact revenge for the murder of his sister and parents at the hands of the regime. However, things become complicated when he’s assigned to Shin Haebeom, a cold, manipulative commander of the elite Disciplinary Squad.
As Ryujin plays the role of a loyal operative, he and Haebeom develop a dangerous, obsessive relationship. Ryujin is torn between his mission to destroy the regime and his conflicting emotions toward Haebeom—who may be just as broken and haunted as he is.
