Plot

Kind and warm-hearted, Goni only hopes for a better life for his single, hard-working mother. He first starts gambling to make money to buy her a sewing machine, and even encourages her remarriage with local photographer Dae-ho. What Goni doesn't know, however, is that his stepfather used to be Jirisan's notorious swindler and that Goni's best friend Young-min is actually plotting against Dae-ho. In the end, Dae-ho is killed because of Young-min, and Goni is framed. He lands in jail where he learns the ins and outs of gambling in the card game hwatu. Upon Goni's release, he has only one goal: to gamble his way to the top and exact revenge on Young-min and his mastermind uncle Agwi.
