If life is a game of Go, I wish I can place my first stone again

A gang boss Nam-hae meets a young Go player Min-su, who rekindles his interest in the game.

Nam-hae orders his second in command to persuade Min-su and Min-su becomes Nam-hae’s private Go tutor. In learning Go from Min-su, Nam-hae looks back on his own life. While Min-su discovers the coarse masculine underworld, the meaning of life and true victory through Nam-hae.
