Crypto Man unfolds as a sharp, unsettling portrait of ambition forged under the weight of parental expectation. Do-hyun, long overshadowed by his mother’s towering hopes, learns to navigate—and ultimately manipulate—South Korea’s labyrinth of privilege. With poetic precision and corporate cunning, he climbs the social ladder by forging documents, bending bureaucratic loopholes, and securing government support meant for those far less fortunate. His ascent culminates in the creation of “MOMMY Coin,” a flashy cryptocurrency branded as his masterpiece, a digital monument to the approval he never received.
Yet beneath the glitter of overnight success lies a trembling foundation. As financial inspectors, rival entrepreneurs, and disillusioned investors begin to circle, Do-hyun’s empire of illusion edges toward collapse. Public scrutiny grows fierce, threatening to expose the carefully constructed façade he built to outrun his own insecurities.
Blending social satire, psychological tension, and the thrill of modern finance, Crypto Man explores the fragile dance between ambition and deception. It questions how far one might go to satisfy a parent’s dream—and whether any achievement can fill a heart carved hollow by expectation. This is a story of desire, downfall, and the haunting price of chasing validation at any cost.
