    Byung-Gu is an ordinary young man who believes all the earth's social ills are the evil doings of aliens. It's why he knows that unless he can meet the prince of Andromeda before the total lunar eclipse, planet earth will be in grave danger. But to meet the prince, he must first find an extraterrestrial being on earth. Which is where a battle begins between Byung-Gu and chemical company CEO Kang Man-Shik. Can Byung-Gu save the world?
