Synopsis
After inadvertently destroying the life of his best friend, Narutaki Ryu abandons everything and leaves Japan. He nearly dies at a church in a foreign country before he is saved by a Korean boxer named Hwang Jo Han. Both men carry deep, unhealed wounds, and as their lonely souls gravitate toward one another, it soon becomes clear that they are soul mates. Drawn by fate, they decide to live together. Their journey takes them through Berlin, Seoul and Tokyo, where they experience a breadth of emotions: unforgettable pain, suffering and, ultimately, joy.
