Man-su (Lee Byung-hun from Squid Game) thinks he has it all – a loving wife, two children, two Golden Retrievers, and a dream home. When he is abruptly laid off from a paper company after 25 years of service, he vows to find a new job in the industry within the next three months. After a long and fruitless job search, Man-su risks losing the family home. Out of desperation, he hits on a solution to find work: eliminate the competition.
