Lee Jun Seong, fresh out of military service and determined to start anew, finds himself trapped in an unplanned abduction scheme, leading to a whirlwind of emotional upheaval and inner turmoil.

Speaking about his role, the actor shared, "Jun Seong is unlike any character I've portrayed before. I aimed to authentically depict his raw emotions, such as the wrinkles on his face and the flushed complexion that surfaces when he's angry".
