Synopsis
Hyung Soo, who is negotiating for a sexual service charge of Joo Young, fell into Joo Young’s trick and ended up entering the auction house for Organ Human Trafficking. Blink of a moment, Hyung Soo’s body parts are on sale and a lot of people shout out prices for his body parts. As Hyung Soo’s kidney sold to Geuk Ryul, earthquake occurs and the building started to collapse. Any crimes can be buried at the fallen building; people becomes monsters for the money.

Note from the artistic direction
One of the most prolific territories in terms of series, South Korea always succeeds in surprising us with completely straightforward stories, with great genre mastering, to expose our ultra-individualistic society.

Bargain is no exception. Inspired by a short film, the series, that must remain totally unknown before you see it, takes us, through masterful sequence-shots, on a never-ending road to hell.
