Bait Synopsis
Koo Do Han, our protagonist, was a lawyer before he became a detective. On a mission to find out the real reason and culprit behind an unsolved crime, Do Han is set on the past, trying to uncover the truth about this gruesome case.
He starts his investigation and tries to fix the pieces leading to the cause of the crime and who the perpetrator was. On his journey, he encounters two strangers who, later on, help him in his quest to solve the obscure crime.
Cheon Na Yeon and No Sang Cheon both end up crossing paths with Do Han and accompany him in his mission to unravel the truth of the unsolved crime. Na Yeon is a reporter, while Sang Cheon is a con artist. While this bunch may seem odd and out of place, they’re deadset on bringing justice to the victims of the case when they come together.
