Drama I will watch in the near future

KBS02

We have been living in a country that is generous to small and big of all corruption for a long time. When such tolerance has been rotten to the core, a man proudly shouts out for the fact that when one should be punished when one earns ill-gotten money, and those who regard such wickedness as normal should also be punished. Sung Ryong joins the TQ Group to make more money with his inborn persistence and extraordinary brain but ironically saves the crumbling company, fighting injustice and absurdity.
