At the center of the story stands a self-made magnate whose hunger for wealth and influence has shaped entire industries. Opposite him, a prosecutor refuses to look away — sacrificing personal comfort, relationships, and safety to pursue accountability. The series unfolds across a turbulent historical moment in South Korea, where old power structures collide with new ambitions. Each episode layers boardroom maneuvering with courtroom drama, revealing how deeply money can corrupt institutions. The two men's fates become increasingly entangled as every move one makes forces the other to adapt, raising the stakes for both sides.
