In the heart of Iraq's volatile landscape, a clandestine game of espionage unfolds. Kim Taehyung, a phantom of the South Korean intelligence, is thrust into a perilous mission. A cryptic report of militant activities, orchestrated by a shadowy alliance of Russian and North Korean power brokers, threatens to destabilize South Korea. As martial law grips his homeland, Taehyung, disguised as a mercenary, infiltrates the infamous Camp Bucca, a private military base camp, a breeding ground for extremism.
Unforeseen, fate intervenes. Deep within the labyrinthine complex, he encounters Go Haru, a woman from his past. Their paths had crossed years ago in the treacherous Italian underworld of the Camorra, a dangerous alliance forged in the heat of a shared mission. Yet, their bond was abruptly severed, leaving a void in Taehyung's heart. Now, they reunite under the Iraqi sun, their roles irrevocably altered.
Go Haru, a skilled linguist, appears to be a simple translator, a facade concealing her true identity as a North Korean spy. Her loyalties are divided, caught between the iron fist of her homeland and the allure of a love lost. As their lives intertwine once more, Taehyung finds himself questioning his own loyalties and the true nature of the woman he once loved.
Can he forgive the betrayals of the past? Can he trust the woman who has become his enemy? As the lines between love and duty blur, Taehyung must navigate a treacherous path, facing deadly adversaries and uncovering shocking truths. With every step, the stakes rise higher, and the fate of nations hangs in the balance. In this high-stakes game of espionage, where trust is a luxury and love a dangerous gamble, can Taehyung and Go Haru find redemption or will they be consumed by the darkness?
