An African storyteller humorously and kindly talks about how some of his fellow countrymen are emulating the habits of white people and “Their stuff”. He thus presents several cases to prove his point. In one of them a supposed to be planter and businessman who underpays an employee gets framed by his own folks. A young boy jumps from a high tree with an open umbrella to copy the way the parachutists do in the city. A few other examples are as pathetic or comical. At the epilogue our storyteller finds himself being laughed at, at a bistro in Paris. The way he deals with the situation is kind and again humorous.

The film's plot pits a tough loose-cannon cop, Kang Chul-joong, and a psychopathic killer, Cho Kyu-hwan, against each other. Kang typifies the anti-hero cop genre, taking bribes and stealing drugs from criminals. His career is in a slump and internal affairs are investigating his actions. The antagonist Cho, on the other hand, leads a life as a successful business and family man. Under his cool exterior however, he displays a total disregard for others, killing people for the slightest perceived misdeed.

L'action se situe dans un espace unique tout le long du film, un salon d'un appartement pourvu d'un couloir en arrière-plan et d'une porte d'entrée à gauche. L'ensemble se présente comme une scène de théâtre, présentation accentuée par les rires enregistrés récurrents qui ponctuent le film et rappellent le sitcom. La pièce assez vaste comporte un canapé, une lampe de chevet, un téléphone sur un petit meuble et une planche à repasser. Les trois personnages sont trois lapins de forme humanoïde : Jack, homme, en costume noir qui entre et sort à plusieurs reprises, Suzie, femme en robe de chambre principalement occupée à repasser du linge, et Jane, femme, qui ne quitte pas le canapé et ne dit pas un mot de tout le film. L'éclairage de la pièce, sommaire, fournit une demi-obscurité.

On this job's completion, Byung-doo receives the money he was hoping for in addition to President Hwang's respect and a spot at his side. Byung-doo and President Hwang swear never to speak of the hit to anyone so that they, nor the organization, will not be implicated.
