Kang Do Chang (Son Hyun Joo) and Oh Ji Hyeok ( Jang Seung Jo) are detectives in the South Korean port city of Incheon. But they are polar opposites: While the former is a grizzled veteran of almost two decades who uses his experience and personal connections to crack cases, Oh Ji Hyeok is his foil. Instead, he is cool, calculating, and prefers to delve into criminals’ minds to look for clues. The duo has formed an unlikely partnership, but they will need to pool all of their skills if they are to crack their toughest case yet.

Troubles begin when they investigate a savage beating at a seedy underground club – as well as a serial killer who seems to have a fondness for preying on young women dressed in white. The mystery leads them to the TJ Group – a powerful family-run conglomerate. The family that runs the group appears to be at war with itself. And amid all the chaos, a number of key players emerge, including Cheon Na Na (Kim Hyo Jin) and the TJ legal chief Woo Tae Ho (Jung Moon Sung). Could the TJ Group and its feuding family operators be the key to the crimes? Only Incheon’s finest detectives can find out!

Mr. Baek’s star driver is Jung Eun Ha (Park So Dam), who has a 100% record of delivering even the most difficult packages. 

But Jung Eun Ha is in for a shock when her latest delivery turns out to be a young boy (Jung Hyun Joon). And this is not just any boy: He is the son of a client who has become involved in a gambling ring. And he has a key to a bank account – and millions of dollars worth of funds. All of a sudden, Jung Eun Ha finds herself at the heart of a high-octane chase – with a corrupt cop named Cho Kyung Pil (Song Sae Byuk) on her tail.
