Synopsis[edit]

In 1983, the South Korean President Chun Doo-hwan and his delegates are visiting Burma when a bomb planted by North Korean agents explodes, killing some high-ranking officials. This historical sự kiện is called the Rangoon bombing (also known as the Rangoon incident). To strike back, five South Korean officials plan a covert operation, codenamed "Operation Cleansweep", to lớn enter North Korea and kill several top members of the North's high command. Lee Jin-Pyo (Kim Sang-joong) and Park Moo-yeol (Park Sang-min), two Presidential Security Service bodyguards and best friends who were present at the bombing, organize a 21-man team for the mission. However, as the team wreaks havoc in Pyongyang, the five officials, by a majority decision of 4 to lớn 1, abort the plan to lớn avoid an international crisis if the mission is discovered. Their major concern is that the United States will withdraw its nuclear protection if the mission is made public. In light of Seoul's official declaration, it will not retaliate.

The operation is successful, but as the troops swim out from Nampo to lớn an ROK Navy submarine assigned for their extraction, snipers aboard the submarine open fire on them. An already injured Park sacrifices his life to lớn save Lee. Lee swims back to lớn shore and returns to lớn South Korea, where he finds out that the assault team's service and personal records have been erased.

Promising to lớn avenge his fallen comrades, Jin-Pyo kidnaps Mu-yeol's infant son and names him Lee Yoon-sung (Lee Min-ho). He flees to lớn the Golden Triangle to lớn raise the child as his own and trains the boy intensively in combat. Following an attack on a village they live in, Jin-Pyo confesses his long-term plan for revenge to lớn a teenaged Yoon-sung.

Seven years later, after successfully finishing his education and attaining a doctorate in the United States at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Yoon-sung returns to lớn South Korea to lớn fulfil his adoptive father's plan for revenge. He enters the Blue House as an IT expert under the National Communication Network Team. Jin-Pyo warns him not to lớn trust anyone and never fall in love, as doing sánh will put the people around him in danger.

While working at the Blue House, Lee meets bodyguard Kim Na-na (Park Min-young). Eventually, Na-na participates in his revenge plan, as they discover that they have the same goal in mind. Problems occur as Jin-Pyo's revenge plot unfolds, especially when Lee defies his surrogate father on several occasions as they try to lớn identify and kill the officials, known as the "Council of Five".

Each thành viên of the Council has achieved significant wealth and political influence since 1983 and is engaged in various corruption levels. Jin-Pyo and Yoon-sung's conflict stems primarily from Jin-Pyo's wish to lớn murder each official and Yoon-sung's wish to lớn teach them a lesson and expose their corruption without killing them. As Yoon-sung exposes the officials' corruption, the citizens of Korea sense an unseen force of justice that they dub "City Hunter
