It’s just after 5 p.m. on February 18, 1993. A bitter winter chill grips North York, Toronto, where a tiny convenience store sits hidden at 11 Arleta Avenue. For Andrew Ryu—a father, a husband, a South Korean immigrant who built a life from nothing—it’s the end of another grueling day. But as the clock ticks toward closing, two teenage boys step through the door, their faces shadowed, their hands hiding a deadly secret.

In an instant, a robbery turns to murder. A single shot shatters the silence, and Andrew Ryu’s dream of a better life bleeds out on the floor. The killers? They flee onto a westbound bus, disappearing into the night—leaving behind a crime that’s defied justice for over 32 years.
