- The six-party talks have resumed after 5 years, but North Korea’s vice foreign minister requests asylum through the Korean embassy in Beijing. In order to get rid of the traitor, North Korea sends code name Chief CHOI to the South. Meanwhile, code name Mr. KIM has been working as a trade agent and travelling back and forth between South Korea and China. He has been working hard to support his families both in the North and South. Suddenly, he receives a simple text message: ‘Peonies have bloomed’. It is the first order he had received from the North in 10 years. Mr. KIM has a secret rendezvous with Chief CHOI, then starts gathering his fellow comrades scattered throughout the South to help Chief CHOI and his men scheme for LEE Yong-sung’s assassination.
