Posing as mother and daughter, two professional thieves - middle-aged alcoholic Chewing Gum (Kim Hae-suk) and trashy Anycall (Gianna Jun) - rob the wealthy owner of Leesung Gallery (Shin Ha-gyun) of a rare artifact he bought from notorious Chinese fence Wei Hong (Gi Guk-seo). The theft is organised by team leader Popeye (Lee Jeong-jae), helped by his associate Zampano (Kim Su-hyeon). The next day they are visited by a police detective (Ju Jin-mo) who is hot on Popeye's trail. Meanwhile, in Hong Kong Chinese veteran thief Chen (Simon Yam), along with Jonny (Derek Tsang) and Korean-Chinese Andrew (Oh Dal-su), are busy robbing a jewellery shop. Afterwards, they're joined by Julie (Angelica Lee), the daughter of a professional safecracker. To escape the heat at home, the Koreans join Chen's gang in Hong Kong for a heist led by South Korean master thief Macau Park (Kim Yun-seok), who was once Popeye's boss. Park's plan is to steal the Tear of the Sun diamond, worth US$30 million, which was stolen during an exhibition in Tokyo by Japanese thief Madame Tiffany (Ye Su-jeong), mistress of Wei Hong, who is coming to sell it in Macau. Popeye has brought along safecracker Pepsi (Kim Hye-su), just released on parole, but Park is unhappy with her joining the team, as they once had a relationship that ended badly four years ago. Park intends to sell the diamond back to Wei Hong for US$20 million - a risky venture as Wei Hong, whose face has rarely been seen, has a habit of murdering anyone who crosses him. Everyone in the team of thieves has a separate agenda and, when the robbery finally takes place in Macau, little goes according to plan.
