In the drama, Ji Sung plays the role of Inspector Jang Jae-kyung of the narcotics team at Anhyeon Police Station, who receives the respect of juniors and the trust of seniors within the police force.

Thus, he keeps his distance from friendships, police work, and family by staying away from things that he think are dangerous. He is a person who is passionate about police work without any weaknesses and has the conviction to always stick to her principles.
Portraying Oh Yun-jin, an opinionated and outspoken reporter in the social affairs department of Anhyun Economic Daily is Jeon Mi Do. She is a Joan of Arc-like character who rushes at old-fashioned comments regardless of their status, and because she is the type of person who can’t ignore anything that isn’t right, she was unfairly dismissed from her previous job.
