Their confrontations throughout the series are tense and nerve-wracking. Kim Ui-sung joins as Jo Chul-ho, a hacker of North Korean defector origin.

The mystery crime thriller centers on a cynical lawyer invited to a wish-granting app called "Code." Strange incidents follow. Yu Su-min, who directed Weak Hero Class 1 and 2, directs.
