Synopsis
New prison guard Minsu survives riot by posing as inmate, must ally with criminals against rival factions.
After three years of prep, Kim Minsu is ready to start his first day as a guard on the XB-880, a high-security prison in the middle of the ocean. On his first day, the prisoners riot and take over the ship. As they massacre the guards, Minsu poses as a criminal to survive. Though wary of this new face, he is accepted as one of them. Now, Minsu has to maintain this ruse until help comes, but as a powerful faction takes hold of the brig, he must work with the other inmates to fight for control. (Source: Tapas Media)
