In the secluded corners of a rustic farm village, young Hwayi's life is far from ordinary, as he finds himself under the care of five notorious criminals, each his adoptive father. On an ominous day, the infamous gang finds itself tasked with the chilling commission of assassinating a man named Lim and his wife. The mission stirs unease within the group, yet Suk-tae, the most resolute among them, insists on involving Hwayi in this grim task. As they infiltrate Lim's home, Hwayi stumbles upon a photograph of a child, an image that stirs a deep sense of familiarity in the young boy. The mission reaches its climax when Suk-tae thrusts his firearm into Hwayi's hands, compelling him to commit his first act of murder. The aftermath leaves Hwayi reeling, his soul tainted by the act he was forced to commit.
