What it’s about. Anciens camarades de classe, Kyung-min, homme d’affaires d’une trentaine d’années, et Jong-suk, écrivain sans emploi, se retrouvent à l’occasion d’un repas. Ils se souviennent que durant leur scolarité, un groupe d’écoliers particulièrement cruels, les « dogs », faisaient régner la terreur en infligeant vexations et humiliations à une partie des élèves, les « pigs ». Kim Chul, un de leurs camarades, osa un jour se rebeller et affronter les « dogs », devenant ainsi le seul espoir de s’affranchir de leur tyrannie. 15 ans après, il demeure un véritable héros, mais derrière cette figure, les deux hommes revisitent l’histoire trouble qui les lie l’un à l’autre.
