Why Kill Me and My Family? We’re Not Important!
Nok Du is the name of the main character in this tale. He is actually a prince only he doesn’t know it because his adopted father kept his identity a secret. There was no slow gradual build-up as to the intensity of the action in this series. In the very first episode, there is an assassination attempt. Several female assassins show up at the home of Nok Du’s adopted father with the intent to kill everyone who lives there. Well! If you are just an ordinary nobody, living on an island that people rarely visit, why send in a team of assassins to kill your entire family?
In the fight, Nok Du manages to wound one of the assassins in the leg. He is unaware that she is a woman. No matter. He chases after her because he figures she will return to whoever it was that sent her on this mission to kill his family. Nok Du is determined to find out WHO and WHY.
That’s how Nok Du’s tale begins. He isn’t so much trying to figure out his identity. He just wants to figure out who sent assassins to his home…
