Synopsis

Summarize
Perspective

A passionate animal lover and skilled veterinarian, no one would suspect that Kim Soo-hyun (Jang Ki-yong) is actually one of the most lethal men in the world. Using his facade as a defender of animals to hide his true identity, Kim Soo-hyun has forged a reputation between the worst of the worst as the epitome of precision, skill and, above all, anonymity. A complete mystery, he is a ghost, a shadow, a lethal whisper, hired by individuals and organizations around the world to deal with problems that only he is capable of dealing with. On the opposite extreme, is Do Hyun-jin (Nana), a tenacious detective whose external cold image hides an empathic soul. Using an effective combination of skill and instinct, Do Hyun-jin ends up working on a case that leads her directly to Kim Soo-hyun. Believing that he is the serial killer she seeks, Do Hyun-jin thoroughly investigates the identity and past of Kim Soo-hyun, but what she finds shakes her to the bone. Now, bound by fate, Do Hyun-jin and Kim Soo-hyun set out to solve the mystery that linked them years ago.

It is revealed that Kim Soo-hyun was raised by Pavel, a European hitman who was sent by Kim's own father to kill him. Pavel took pity on the boy and raised him as his adopted son and eventual successor in the assassin business. As an adult, Soo-hyun becomes a skilled assassin while Pavel's health is deteriorating. One day, Pavel decides to complete one last job before officially handling the helm to Soo-hyun but his illness prevented him in killing his target, a mafia boss. This causes him to be apprehended and tortured but Soo-hyun comes and rescues him while killing the mafia boss. Unknown to him, the mafia boss's son, Karimov survived and swore revenge. Pavel eventually dies from his wound while encouraging Soo-hyun to live a normal life.
