Sauvetage à haut risque

Afghanistan, en 2007. Un groupe de missionnaires sud-coréens est pris en otage par des talibans. Park Dae-sik, un agent des services secrets, et Jung Jae-ho, un haut fonctionnaire du ministère des Affaires étrangères, sont envoyés sur place pour négocier la libération de leurs concitoyens...

A group of Korean tourists is taken hostage by an extremist Taliban group in Afghanistan. The Korean government dispatches Jae-ho, known as one of Korea's most skilled diplomats, in order to handle the situation. Once he arrives, he asks for the Afghan government's cooperation and uses every means possible to free the hostages. However, his efforts go in vain. Due to his failure, he's forced to work with Dae-sik, a special agent who is an expert on the Middle East. As they begin making their move to get to the Taliban, the first hostage death occurs. With nowhere else to turn, the two become unlikely allies in a race against time to save the rest of the hostages.
