Summary

A comic action drama about an NIS agent who hides his identity and enters high school disguised as a student to find the missing emperor's gold bullion.

Byungmoon is Korea’s most prestigious private high school. Students are divided into levels based on their parents’ wealth and background. No one takes a second glance at the weak; personal gain and good results are deemed the highest priority, and all kinds of corruption take place in this miniaturized version of society.

A new student transfers to this school. His name is Jung Hae-sung. He hides his true identity as an NIS agent and becomes an undercover high school student. Hae-sung realizes that while the school looks fine from the outside, it is total chaos on the inside. It is a rat race among the students, their parents, and the teachers, driven by greed and desires. Hae-sung came to the school to find the hidden gold bars of Emperor Gojong, but he finds himself getting involved with other students and the school’s affairs.

There is a classmate who reminds him of his younger self, a younger student who seems bright on the outside but has many concerns weighing her down, and a teacher who is an old friend and his first crush. Hae-sung begins to change as he meets various people at Byungmoon High. As he changes, the school and its students also start to change.
