But, as it turns out, it also can be one of the most corrupt professions, with plenty of opportunities to shake down gamblers and pocket some extra cash. With no memories of his past, Cha-don's fate is inextricably tied with Bok Jae-in, the daughter of a loan shark who funded Cha-don's upbringing and education and wants to be repaid for the investment. Ji Se-kwang, a senior prosecutor, is responsible for the trajectory of Cha-don's life, pretends to be a righteous prosecutor while hiding the misdeeds of his past.
