Summary:

In this tale of greed and power, a man consumed by his lust for wealth and influence systematically pushes away those closest to him. Tragically, his actions contribute to the loss of his spouse and his mentor, but instead of regret, he finds his appetite for dominance growing.

Meanwhile, his brother-in-law, a dedicated inspector within the Commercial Crime Bureau, is resolute on bringing him to justice. Joining forces with a superior officer and a trusted junior inspector, they begin to build a case against the money-hungry man.

As they work to gather incriminating evidence, the inspector sees great potential in the junior inspector and starts to mentor her, envisioning her as his most valued protégé. Yet, to everyone's astonishment, she abruptly abandons her badge and accepts a new position working for the very target of their investigation.

Once inside, she swiftly earns the confidence of the second wife of the wealthy magnate, positioning herself as an ally. As the plot progresses, she also skillfully navigates complex dealings with a significant player in the financial sector, further entrenching herself in the world she once sought to dismantle.

What seems like total allegiance and an undermining of her former superior's objective turns the tables as the woman appears to wield considerable influence, potentially disrupting the man’s grand schemes of ambition. The story unwinds in a captivating game of cat and mouse, blurring the lines between loyalty and betrayal, control and subversion.

    This particular series presents an intriguing blend of action and drama set against the backdrop of the financial world, where the power of wealth seems to reign supreme. While the premise initially revolves around a wealthy individual known for his uncanny ability in financial matters, the story takes an unexpected turn by placing a significant emphasis on a secondary character, a female police officer. Her personal life, family dynamics, and professional pursuits take center stage, steering the plot in a different direction than anticipated.

    The cast,...

    featuring familiar faces such as Bosco and Kate, brings a sense of nostalgia for viewers who may have appreciated their chemistry in previous projects like "Lives of Omission." Bosco's portrayal is commendable, complemented by Nancy's compelling performance. Their on-screen relationship adds a delightful touch to the narrative. Sharon's presence in a prominent role is a welcome surprise, although her acting falls short of expectations compared to her previous standout performances. Jin's inclusion is a treat for fans, showcasing his talent in a role that leaves room for more exploration.

    Among the ensemble, Jazz emerges as a standout character, with his unwavering loyalty and genuine care for those around him resonating with the audience. The series' ending song, a collaboration between Kate and Hubert, stands out as a memorable musical highlight.

    Despite the star-studded cast, the overall execution of the storyline leaves much to be desired. Weak character development and a lackluster narrative progression contribute to a sense of disappointment among viewers. The unrealistic and overly convenient deaths of characters detract from the credibility of the plot, while inconsistent character behavior and decision-making further weaken the storytelling. A stronger focus on enhancing character depth and refining the storyline could have elevated the series to a higher standard.

    In conclusion, while the talent of the cast members shines through, the series ultimately falls short of its potential due to narrative shortcomings and underdeveloped characters. Viewers seeking a more cohesive and engaging storyline may find themselves let down by the overall execution of this drama.
