Can corporate politics turn a bad person into a good person? Kim Seong-ryong is a skilled accountant who works for gangsters. He makes his way into a company called TQ Group as a middle manager in the accounting department with the intention of embezzling money from the company. As he contends with hot-shot accountant Yoon Ha-gyeong, financial prodigy Seo Yool and peppy intern Hong Ga-eun, Seong-ryong finds himself embroiled in office politics and notices other shenanigans by those in power that threaten to bring down the company. Seong-ryong slowly comes to realize that he’d rather fight against corporate corruption and fight for employees’ rights than complete the mission he originally came to do.
