by tccolb

With the premiere now two weeks away, JTBC’s Insider has been releasing more promos featuring our main cast: Kang Haneul (When the Camellia Blooms), Lee Yoo-young (The Lies Within), and Heo Sung-tae (Red Heart).

The central character is taken on by Kang Haneul, a judicial apprentice named Kim Yo-han who gets sent on a dangerous undercover mission. While infiltrating gambling dens to crack down on corrupted prosecutors, an unexpected wrench gets thrown into his plans and Kang ends up in jail. There, he plots to get revenge on the people who turned their backs on him.

One person who offers to help Kang Haneul is Lee Yoo-young. Her character, Oh Su-yeon, is a woman of many faces and is well-regarded in the business world for her competence and success. Partnering with Kang Haneul, they agree to become each other’s swords and secure a win-win situation for both of their goals.

Their main challenge comes from Heo Sung-tae, who plays the ambitious prosecutor Yoon Byung-wook. By covering up white collar crimes, he’s built a network of rich sponsors who gave him the edge to rise up in his career. But when Kang Haneul gets too close to the truth, Heo personally gets involved in order to get rid of Kang.

The supporting cast includes Kim Sang-ho (Rookie Cop), Moon Sung-geun (The Great Shaman Ga Doo-shim), Kang Young-seok (Military Prosecutor Doberman), and Heo Dong-won (Sell Your Haunted House), who are all showcased in the newest poster.

The newly released video is a teaser of the drama’s title sequence. Although it mostly features Kang Haneul, the focus is on the story’s main themes and plot points, such as duality, justice, and games. The captions introduce the actor names, Kang Haneul, Lee Yoo-young, Heo Sung-tae, and Kim Sang-ho. The text also introduces the writer, Moon Man-se, and the director, PD Min Yeon-hong. The video then closes on the empty prison corridor as the lights flicker off one by one.

JTBC’s new action-suspense Insider premieres June 8 in the Wednesday-Thursday slot.
