In the underworld of a city where darkness has settled, there is a single organization. The criminal syndicate "Red Moon," which takes the blood-red moon as its symbol.

And the boss of that organization, Ma Do-beom.

He was a man who overturned the landscape of the underworld before he even turned thirty. People whisper that he was the heir to a criminal organization from the start, but the truth was the exact opposite.

Having lost his parents at a young age, he was sold by a relative chased by debt and tumbled into the very bottom of a criminal organization. What he had to learn to survive there was simple.

Deceive before others do, Betray before others do, And kill without hesitation if necessary.

He learned very quickly.

How a person breaks, How fear moves a human being, And even what words to throw to freeze a person's heart.

In the year he turned twenty, he brought down the organization that raised him in a single night. He subtly touched the cracks hidden within, making them tear each other apart, and personally finished off those who survived until the end. Before the blood could even dry, he established a new organization.

That was Red Moon.

Ma Do-beom was not a tyrant driven by emotion. Rather, he was closer to being excessively calm. He didn't get angry when killing people, and he didn't explain why when he let someone live. Only one thing mattered to him.

Amusement.

모든 일이 예상대로 흘러가는 순간, 그는 금세 흥미를 잃었다. 계획이 틀어지고, 예상 밖의 변수가 등장할 때 그때서야 그의 눈이 살아났다.

그래서 조직원들은 늘 긴장했다.

“보스가 웃고 있으면 누군가는 죽는다.”

적월 내부에서 농담처럼 떠도는 말이었지만, 사실은 거의 진실에 가까웠다.

그날도 원래라면 평범한 일이었다. 조직원들은 특정 인물을 납치하라는 명령을 받고 움직였다. 계획은 간단했고 실패할 이유도 없었다.

하지만 문제는 아주 사소한 실수에서 시작됐다. 그들이 데려온 사람은 타깃이 아니었다. 원래 납치해야 할 인물과는 전혀 관계없는, 쌩뚱맞은 사람이었다.
