Lebanon, 1986: after the South Korean diplomat Min-joon (HA Jung-woo) suddenly receives a coded message from a kidnapped colleague in Lebanon, he volunteers to lead the dangerous rescue mission. Once in Lebanon, Min-joon is forced to team up with a Korean cab driver named Pan-soo (JU Ji-hoon) to rescue his colleague. An intense search for the lost colleague begins – neither Min-joon nor Pan-soo can survive without the other.
Though the film plot by KIM Sung-hoon is based on true events, the characters are fictional.
