A schizophrenic and twilight thriller. The immunity of the powerful and the power of punishment.

Ten years earlier, someone was the target of a particularly sadistic killer, Noh Namyong, who is about to get out of prison thanks to the support of his rich and influential family. Around this assassin, three “I’s” will share the story:

A man who develops a complex plan to send Noh Namyong back to prison: “I worked nights in a shabby restaurant. One evening, a junkie comes to make a scandal. I try to calm him down but the guy goes crazy. That’s when I discovered my taste for violence; I grabbed the knife and stabbed the guy with delight.”

A man who has to kill Noh Namyong to join a rather special company: “I’m 43 years old and I’m the deputy director of my company. My subordinates don’t listen to me and my superiors harass me. Yet for my clients I am the most experienced, the most competent. What have I done wrong?”

A man who has euthanized hundreds of people: “I’m an old man. I used to be a doctor. I still wear a black suit and a black coat. I visit those who need help to die. Death is only a door to leave this unjust world.”
