Previously, the players successfully raided Club Libido, a hotspot for hallucinogens and drugs, and captured KU Entertainment director Lee Jin Soo (Choi Seung Yoon). Despite securing evidence and handing it over to the prosecution, CEO Kim Yoon Gi (Park Gun Hyung) tried to pin all the blame solely on Lee Jin Soo and use his wealth and connections to cover his tracks.

Now, the players need a more definitive move to ensure justice. They must find concrete proof linking CEO Kim Yoon Gi directly to the case, leading them to plan an infiltration of KU Entertainment.

For this undercover mission, Lim Byung Min and Cha Je Yi adopt a more subdued, nerdy, and casual look to blend in with the other office workers at KU Entertainment.

In other stills, Cha Jae Yi is seen in dynamic scenarios, such as knocking down or grabbing Lim Byung Min by his hair, simulating a dramatic arrest, further raising viewers’ anticipation about their latest strategy. Given their unique chemistry, often showcased through playful bickering, the synergy they bring to the field is highly anticipated.
