About The Man in the Shadows

Seo Chang-dae has only one dream: to change the world. That is why he joins the campaign of politician Kim Woon-bum and, in order to have chances in the face of the controversial party in power, Seo resorts to aggressive propaganda. Kim becomes the most influential politician in the opposition, but unlike Seo, he doesn't believe that in politics everything is allowed. The gap between the two grows, and one day the party in power makes a surprising offer: Kim to be its candidate for the presidency of the country.
