He is someone who wears red down to his underwear. He wears red so that the blood of the people he kills does not stain his clothes, as he is allergic to blood. Our hero Orhan, who went to meet Figen to overcome his cowardice and create a new outlook on life for himself, finds himself in another predicament on the first day he meets her. Red Erol wants to marry Figen off to the son of Rüstem, a well-known figure in the mafia world. Figen is tired of her father’s pressure.
