    • Synopsis
    • Rumours arise that a mythical king’s long-lost treasure dating back to the 15th century and alleged to be worth more than anyone can imagine is buried in a royal tomb in the heart of Seoul. This news attracts the attention of a loosely-knit group known as the “Collectors”. The circle includes a talented grave-robber Gang Dong-gu (Lee), mural robbery expert “Dr. Jones” (Jo) and “The Shoveler” (Lim). All three have competing aims and so need to both work together and outplay each other in order to seize their final prize. Meanwhile, an elite curator of antique art, Yoon Sae-hee (Shin) recognises Dong-gu’s talent and makes an attractive but risky offer.
