    • Synopsis
    • Hired by moneylenders, a man lives as a loan shark brutally threatening people for paybacks. This man, without any family, has caused so much pain to countless people without any fear. One day, a woman appears in front of him claiming to be his mother. He coldly rejects her at first, but gradually accepts her in his life and even decides to quit his cruel job. Then suddenly the mother is kidnapped. Assuming that it would be by someone he had hurt in the past, he starts to track down people he had harassed. The man finally finds the one, only to realize that this guy had committed suicide a long time ago and the woman is actually the mother of the victim; it all had been a self-fabricated kidnap to take revenge against the man to kill his very soul.
