Description:...

The incident involving Manchester United striker Moon Woo-jin is so frighteningly plausible that it mirrors our reality. What he does next, is just as probable.

Manchester, England. Premier League football. Moon Woo-jin’s dream is realized: The South Korean goal scoring sensation is acquired by United. His life is bliss. That is, until an unspeakable act of terrorism leaves him and his family devastated.

Reeling in the aftermath, Moon meets his estranged uncle, Gang-won, who is a South Korean gangster. He learns from his relative that revenge on the terrorists isn’t just possible. It is the only thing that matters.

This is a saga of sport, love, loss and revenge. Moon Woo-jin, a footballer stricken by tragedy, a man plagued by demons, and an assassin on and off the pitch.
