Plot Overview (May Contain Spoilers)
The series begins with Jeong Jinman (Lee Dong-wook) removing himself from the picture. Jinman’s niece, Jeong Ji-an (Kim Hye-jun) was then left to contend with his undercover weaponry masked in a shopping mall and a slew of death threats from his uncle’s enemies.
This is where Ji-an will remember her uncle’s pieces of advice throughout the series, as she was previously unaware of Jinman’s past and the enemies he left behind. From there, she will meet Jinman’s former teammates, who are tasked with protecting her, and their shopping mall.
Their mission is to safeguard Ji-an and Jinman’s business to prevent the enemies from seizing control. Additionally, Ji-an and her team are responsible for optimizing everything within their bulletproof residence, which boasts numerous concealed passages linked to the shopping mall.
