FREE ADMISSION
In the hilly, backstreets on the outskirts of Seoul, Dong-gu (Soo-hyun Kim) is a seemingly mentally-challenged young man who works at the corner store. Branded as the "village idiot" by local kids, he's actually Lieutenant Won Ryu Hwan, an elite North Korean sleeper agent and leader of Five Star Troop, part of the top-secret 5446 Special Unit whose existence is not even known to the North's current leadership. His duty is to observes the townsfolk and waits patiently for his mission to arrive. One day, after 2 years of playing the role of the village idiot, fellow elite spies Hae-rang (Ki-woong Park), posed as a wannabe rock star and Hae-jin (Hyun woo Lee), who pretends to be an ordinary student, are dispatched to the same town as Ryu-han. Ryu-han helps the other two spies settle in and teaches them how to adjust in the South. However, there is a sudden drastic political power shift in the North and all three spies receive an urgent mission from North Korea that force them to make crucial choices and risk their lives.
