Synopsis

Nearly twenty years ago, Park Joon-pil (Shin Ha Kyun) is the son of a mafia boss. The mafia boss is being chased by the police, but takes a day off to take his young son to the department store. Kang Tae-pyung (Jo Han Sun)’s dad, a police officier, takes his wife and young son to an outing at the store also. At the department store, Kang Tae-pyung’s dad attempts to arrest Joon-pil’s dad. Joon-pil’s dad grabs Tae-pyung’s mom as a hostage and accidently kills her. Tae-pyung’s dad goes crazy and runs after Joon-pil’s dad, thinking that he has taken his son also. Tae-pyung’s dad kills Joon-pil’s dad, but realizes too late that the little boy by Joon-pil’s dad is not his son, but the criminal’s. However, Kang Tae-pyung’s dad is killed also, and both the small boys become orphans. A fellow police officier takes in Joon-pil as his own son, thinking that the little boy is Tae-Pyung. Tae-pyung, however, is taken into an orphan home. Joon-pil knows he is a criminal’s son. Twenty years later, Joon-pil is an aspiring young police officier and Tae-pyung is a boxing bum. When Tae-pyung’s best friend becomes unfairly murdered, he vows to become a police officer. Two years later, Joon-pil and Tae-pyung finally meet again. Rivals but friends at heart, these two guys learn to forgive the past and embrace the future.
