The story takes place in a modern South Korea where official justice works, but sometimes leaves a sense of injustice among victims and the general public. Some violent criminals receive sentences deemed too light or reoffend after their release. It is in this context that the mysterious Vigilante appears, a masked vigilante who himself punishes these criminals. His existence divides society: part of the population sees him as a hero who corrects the flaws in the system, while the authorities see him as a criminal who threatens the rule of law. Between media, police, public opinion and desire for revenge, the world of Vigilante is marked by a constant debate about the true meaning of justice.
