Villain Detective is a Chaebol

You are a chaebol, but what does that have to do with me?

Pressure came down from above to halt the investigation.

The suspect, they said, was a chaebol (a conglomerate heir).

But what can I do?

I’m a chaebol too.

Inspector Lee Hyunsoo, known across the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency as the ‘Villain of Violent Crimes Division 1,’ has a secret power — the ability to foresee brutal incidents before they happen.

Seven years ago, he lost his parents in a hit-and-run accident that he had foreseen but couldn’t stop. Since then, Hyunsoo has made it his mission to bring down the powerful who believe they are above the law.

When the Chairman of Jisang Construction’s son, Ji Soobin, commits a fatal drunk hit-and-run, and the Mayor of Hoseon-gu’s son, Park Seokhyun, is implicated in a r*pe-mu*der case, Hyunsoo ignores all political pressure and dismantles their cover-ups one by one.

Yet behind the detective’s badge lies another truth — Lee Hyunsoo is a chaebol himself. After exposing corruption inside Daesang Group, the group disowned their third son, Hanseok. Then the Chairman left his entire fortune — three trillion won — to Hyunsoo, Hanseok’s son, as a gesture of gratitude for the only birthday letter he had ever received.

Now armed with immense wealth, foresight, and a burning desire for vengeance, Hyunsoo prepares to deliver his own brand of justice — not just against Seoul’s corrupt elite, but against the very relatives who mu*dered his parents.

A detective with foresight, a fortune born of tragedy, and a blade sharpened for revenge — this is the story of a man who delivers his own brand of justice.
