The King of Night

Synopsis

Jason, an ordinary bank clerk, is shot dead in a nightclub but is unexpectedly reborn one hour before his murder. He realizes the Red Eagle Gang has been using his account for money laundering and plans to frame him as a scapegoat. While fleeing, he meets dancer Vera—they grow close, but Vera betrays him and tries to kill him; Jason escapes with his excellent marksmanship but is knocked unconscious. Upon waking, he catches the eye of Natalie, the mysterious and dangerous female leader of the Black Raven Syndicate. They form a fake alliance, using each other. Through constant tests and life-or-death trials, Natalie gradually falls for him and lowers her guard. Jason uncovers that the mastermind of the Red Eagle Gang is the hypocritical bank president Robert. At a charity gala, he exposes Robert’s crimes of money laundering and contract killing, triggering a shootout. Jason fights back, cooperates with the police to arrest Robert, then takes over the remaining gang forces and becomes the ruler of the city’s underworld. Natalie watches him from afar and whispers, “I was the one who chose you.”
