Within the sanctuary of a local Catholic Church, assistant priest Woo Sung-jae finds himself thrust into a position of unexpected leadership when the church’s hierarchy crumbles in the face of catastrophe. With compassion and determination, he endeavours to guide his congregation through the impending storm. Meanwhile, amidst the chaos and ruin of Woongchun City, commander Kang In A leads a courageous battalion in providing essential aid and security to the shattered remnants of society.
