Synopsis

Following five people during World War II to the independence of Singapore, the unrest started on the morning of 1941-Dec-08 when Japanese planes attacked Singapore by air. After the Sook Ching, Zhang Min and Zhang Jia plan to go to Ipoh to seek shelter with the Hong family; however, the siblings get separated. Zhang Jia gets rescued by Hu Wei Ran and acknowledges him as his adoptive father, and changes his surname. Growing up by Hu Wei Ren’s side, the intelligent and agile Hu Jia learns about triads and shady dealings - becoming a gang leader.

Anti-colonialism sentiments were high after World War II. Once close as brothers, Zhang Yan and Hong Dang Yong drift apart as both have different opinions on how Singapore should achieve independence. Dang Yong joined the leftists, while Zhang Yan joined Lim Yew Hock’s government, seeking to wrestle political power peacefully. As Zhang Yan scaled the political ladder, he lost himself in making merry with power by engaging in debauchery and taking bribes. This pits Zhang Yan face-to-face against Dang Yong and Hu Jia.
