Jun was a legendary secret agent for the Anti-Terror team in the NIS. He decides to fake his death during a mission for the NIS to pursue his dream in writing web comics. Despite his efforts to become the top webcomic artist but his comics are not very popular. One night after drinking, he comes up with the idea to write a story based on his former job as a legendary hitman with the NIS. The story soon becomes a mega hit and Jun soon finds himself in a lot of trouble after posting it.
