There, she meets Seo Min Jae (Ryu Jun Yeol) and Woo Sun Young (Jeon Hye Jin). Shi Yeon initially has a lot of doubts about Seo Min Jae's investigative abilities, but he quickly shows that he is a completely reliable investigator.
For a change, Jo Jung Suk portrays a wild bad guy. He is completely evil and insane, but the program doesn't truly give you a full account of how he came to be that way. Because of his activities, Jung Jae Chul's persona doesn't convince you that he is an intelligent man, which makes it difficult for you to believe that he might become a wealthy businessman. He is viewed as an aggressive, impetuous, bad-tempered individual who doesn't feel regret for the crimes he conducts.
