Overview
Hwang Shi Mok underwent brain surgery as a child to curb his violent temper, which left him devoid of emotions.
Hwang becomes a prosecutor known for his piercing intelligence and logic, but he is ostracized because he lacks empathy and social skills.
He is also one of only a handful of upright prosecutors who have refused to take bribes.
One day, he encounters a stabbing victim while investigating corruption.
He meets Lieutenant Han Yeo Jin at the crime scene. They join forces to root out corruption at the prosecutors’ office and solve a serial murder case.
