Introduction about Vua bãi rác

Trọng, a brutal and dictatorial man who is considered the ringleader of a landfill in the suburb of Hanoi. He gives himself the right to charge the poor people anytime they come to the landfill to search for things that can be sold or recycled. He lives a decent life and has a number of lackeys helping him torment anyone going against his wish. One day Trong goes to a whorehouse and meets a prostitute named Thuy. Trong loves Thuy and asks her to live with him in the landfill. With the love for Thuy, Trong gradually changes himself to be a better man… (Yxine)
