A second teaser has dropped for SBS’s upcoming drama “Payback”!
“Payback” tells the thrilling revenge story of those who risk everything to fight a money cartel that has colluded with the law. The drama will give viewers both thrills and catharsis through its portrayal of those who refuse to remain silent and fight against incompetent and unjust authority in their own way. Lee Sun Gyun stars as reclusive money dealer Eun Yong and Moon Chae Won will star as Army Major Park Joon Kyung, an elite judicial officer and former prosecutor.
At the start of the second teaser, Eun Yong speaks to a room full of people sitting at computers. He calls out to them, “This operation is one that can only be successful if we become one.”
After, Park Joon Kyung sneaks into an empty office late at night to secretly open a safe, take out a document, and forge it with the chairman’s stamp. Park Joon Kyung is eventually taken in for questioning and her senior prosecutor Hwang Gi Seok (Park Hoon) stares her down coldly while overseeing the investigation.
Young prosecutor Jang Tae Choon (Kang You Seok), who is also Eun Yong’s nephew, finds himself working with Hwang Gi Seok who tells him, “The code of laws is an ideal, but this is reality.” Displeased with their cooperation, Park Joon Kyung firmly tells Eun Yong, “If they’re on Hwang Gi Seok’s side, they’re enemies. It’s the same even if it’s prosecutor Jang, your family.”
Eun Yong explains, “There’s no way to win cleanly in this dirty fight. We cannot go up against president Myung using law and principle.” That’s when chairman Myung In Joo (Kim Hong Pa) appears, previewing the vicious crimes he’s been committing while thriving as a key player in the corporate bond market.
Although the fight is sure to be a tough one, Eun Yong does not back down. He proudly states, “I’m a shopkeeper. I will buy the entire South Korean prosecution with money, not law.” Chairman Myung taunts, “Now that we’ve drawn our swords, let’s fight until the end.” Eun Yong responds with a warning, “Instead, do not touch my family.”
