Min-tae, a once-notorious gangster who now leads a peaceful retired life, discovers the bloody corpse of his only next of kin: his younger brother Seok-tae. With his brother’s missing wife Moon-young as the prime suspect, Min-tae uncovers a suspicious last phone call between her and a mysterious novelist, sparking a vicious hunt for the truth despite his seemingly deceitful former crime syndicate and the police in hot pursuit.

该片记录的是金汉珉导演和演员大谷亮平等，一起重走韩国民族英雄李舜臣将军当年水军1234公里重建路的经历，将带领观众一起发现李舜臣更多的故事。
