Synopsis: The most interesting anarchists ever during Japanese colonial era now fight against the world. In 1923 during the Japanese occupation, Koreans who live in Tokyo are severely exploited by Japanese. After the Great Kanto Earthquake strikes Japanese island, People fall into chaos. To calm down people’s anxiety, Japanese Cabinet decides to arrest Korean men randomly. Among innocent Korean men, the officer Mizno arrests a young man named Park Yeol as an example. However Park rather draws the whole Cabinet into confusion by telling his extreme scheme he had planned with Japanese Anarchist Fumiko; “Kill the Crown Prince of Japan.”
