Xiji District is a dog-eat-dog underworld, rife with social chaos, corrupt officials and countless criminal gangs...Nicknamed “Tuna”, Yoo-chun Park attempts to seize the empire of Maple Ye, known as “Mandala”, through an acquisition plan. He covets not only her power and wealth, but far more.Your story begins here: a humble accountant stumbles into the mafia underworld, trapped in a “banquet of cooperation” that is, in truth, a plot for total annexation.

Ikay Lu

Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of the Mandala Group and the biological son of King, the mafia godfather. He possesses an exceptionally sharp financial instinct, capable of turning dry financial statements into lethal weapons in strategic games. He once struggled to escape his blood-soaked family, yet was forced back into the vortex of power after his father’s death. A supreme rationalist, Ikay calculates even the premium on a bottle of mineral water. But beneath his cold logical exterior lies a heart that yearns for ordinary warmth. To him, Maple Ye is not an asset to protect, but the only bet worth risking everything on in his gray life.

Maple Ye

The infamous “Mandala” of Xiji District. Born and raised in the brutal training camp founded by King, she is the sharpest blade of the old era. On the surface, she is an aloof and glamorous bar owner wandering through neon lights; in secret, she controls the lifeline of Xiji’s underground logistics. Decisive and ruthless, she still upholds a nearly obsessive sense of morality amid extreme violence. To her, the arrival of Ikay Lu is the first touch of warm, earthly color in her bullet-ridden, black-and-white life.

Nina

Maple Ye’s most trusted right-hand woman and a top-tier cleaner feared throughout Xiji. She fought her way out of the hellish Xiji Training Camp alongside Maple, sharing a bond so deep that she would take a bullet for her. Unlike Maple’s striking cold beauty, Nina moves like a silent shadow — stealthy, fierce, and fiercely loyal. By day, she is a quiet bartender; in battle, she becomes a killing machine that eliminates enemies in an instant. To her, Maple is more than a boss — she is the only family in this cruel, dog-eat-dog world.

Yoo-chun Park

An ambitious arms magnate and cruel lord of emerging forces in Xiji. He fought his way up from the bottom, scoffs at the “elegant order” established by King, and believes in absolute violent expansion. Cunning and vicious, he is driven by extreme class arrogance — desperate to launder his bloodstained wealth while enjoying the thrill of crushing those above him. To seize the financial core of the Mandala Group, he sets up ruthless traps, aiming to control both Maple’s power and Ikay’s genius. To him, everyone is a disposable chip with a price tag.

Justice Su

Top captain of the Changnan Criminal Investigation Detachment, an outsider who walks the line between light and darkness. He was once King’s most troublesome foe, with beast-like intuition and coldly logical detective skills. Justice Su does not blindly trust in perfect legal justice; he believes in a rough law of the jungle — willing to test the limits of the rules to take down real evil. He shares a silent understanding with Ikay Lu after numerous confrontations and holds complicated feelings toward this misguided genius. To him, order is nothing but a bottom line he forcibly defends amid bloodshed, with his rusted service pistol.
