Synopsis
In modern South Korea, low-ranking prosecutor Jinhwan finds himself on a perilous collision course with the nation's most untouchable elite: the chaebols. Working between Seoul University Hospital and the prosecutor's office, Jinhwan and his colleagues are determined to expose the truth. When a major scandal involving a powerful president erupts, they quickly learn some secrets are too big to bury, and some forces too entrenched to challenge. The deeper they dig, the more they uncover a vast web of corruption reaching into society's highest echelons. Jinhwan battles against figures like Chairman Jo Jung-hyeon, whose immense influence mobilizes entire law firms and sways public opinion, turning every legal maneuver into a high-stakes chess match. He faces adversaries who operate with impunity, manipulating the justice system and covering up mysterious disappearances. Warnings to "back off while you still can" become a constant refrain. With his career, reputation, and life on the line, Jinhwan fights against overwhelming odds. Can one determined prosecutor stand against a system designed to protect the privileged, or will he be crushed under the "Buddha's palm" of untouchable power? This gripping legal and medical thriller plunges into the dark heart of South Korean society, where justice is a luxury few can afford, and even fewer dare to fight for.
