Dong-man often chats and gains hacking tools and information through the dark web with the moniker "Bird" with Kang Seon-ho (Jung Jin-young), a hacker with the alias "Yoon". While following a lead on a case of a cryptocurrency illegal gambling site which caused the death of his fiancée, both Seon-ho and Dong-man cross paths unwittingly which leads to bad blood.
Having no dream about his future, Seon-ho chances upon Oh Kang-hee, Krystal Jung (who dreams of being a police officer) and falls in love with her at first sight. Following her footsteps, he too enrolls at the police university where he meets Yoo Dong-man again.
