Synopsis
Mumyeong spends his life protecting Cheon Mu-ryang, the Cheon Clan's eldest son, only to be betrayed and killed by the very man he served. When he opens his eyes, he has become Mu-ryang himself—the clan's notorious mad dog. Keeping his past memories, martial arts and hard-earned judgment, Mumyeong plays the part of the family's disreputable heir while entering its struggle for power. From inside the clan, he sets out to prevent the destruction he knows is coming and change the future that cost him his life.
This murim story reverses the familiar loyal-guard relationship: the betrayed servant must survive behind his murderer's face. His supposed recklessness is a disguise for a fighter who understands the clan's weaknesses and the people around its succession. The central suspense is not just how strong he can become, but how far he can alter a family whose downfall he has already witnessed.
