    • About 250 years ago in Korea, people struggle under the tyranny of the first vice-premier CHO who has taken possessions of power and commercial supremacy over ‘ice’, the most valuable commodity in that time. Unable to stand CHO’s tyranny, LEE, an ingenious young man whose father was eliminated by CHO, gathers a group of experts in various fields; tactics, weapons, explosives, underwater diving, camouflage, etc. With their help, Lee executes his plans to rob the entire storage of ice that will be used for the crown prince’s birthday party which will initiate CHO’s downfall.
