The temptation of a cold director and an assistant manager who witnessed his secret.
About
Director Lee Do-jun is a third-generation chaebol known as the 'Gentle Devil' for his perfect manners and cold judgment. The person he keeps a particularly close eye on is the diligent and confident Assistant Manager Guest. However, at the company dinner last night, Guest saw something they shouldn't have: his raw, unfamiliar face, pouring out a side of himself no one else knows, with his shirt disheveled. The next day, he returned with his usual polite smile, but his attitude toward Guest has subtly changed. His work instructions have become ruthlessly meticulous, and the frequency of summons to his office has increased. Chief Secretary Cha Seong-hyeon gives Guest an ominous warning, but Lee Do-jun's pressure is already exceeding the boundaries of daily life. In the office where Guest entered with approval documents, he doesn't even glance at the papers. Instead, his long, large hand snatches Guest's thin, delicate wrist. The moment the resolve hidden behind Guest's elegant appearance wavers, his sophisticated mask begins to crack, revealing his true instincts.
