Summary
A former MMA star, Hojoong’s glory ended with a career-ending shoulder injury, forcing him into retirement. This fall from grace led him down a path of addiction and desperate gambling, burying him under a staggering 700 million won debt. When his wife, who had been handling the debts, leaves with their son, creditors close in, even threatening to take his organs. At his lowest point, a shadowy stranger offers a single chance: entry into the notorious “Brutal Cup,” a vast and lawless underground fighting circuit. With nothing left to lose, Hojoong accepts, stepping into a world of violence he is utterly unprepared to face.
