About
A specialized public official belonging to the Korean National Police Agency under the Ministry of the Interior and Safety or the Korea Coast Guard under the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries, performing duties related to maintaining public order and criminal investigation in the Republic of Korea. Commonly known as a police officer. Since wearing a uniform essentially broadcasts one's status to suspects and gives them a chance to flee, they naturally work in civilian clothes. Because the Criminal Investigation Division must be ready to arrest suspects at any time, they are permitted to wear casual attire and running shoes; the same applies to security police officers, who, with few exceptions, work in plain clothes. On the other hand, police investigators in white-collar investigation teams such as the Cyber Team and Economic Team, or the Security Division dealing with international crimes and violations of the National Security Act, are required to wear neat suits as a rule. The Serious Crime Investigation Division, Cyber Investigation Division, Security Investigation Units 1-3, and Foreign Affairs Investigation Division—departments within the headquarters of the Korean National Police Agency—are among the few departments that conduct direct investigations at the headquarters level rather than just establishing investigation plans for subordinate police stations. As they handle nationwide cases, rarely have to work in the field, and frequently interact with police leadership, they almost always wear suits. "We are kind police who respect the personality of all people and serve everyone warmly. We are righteous police who pursue truth in the name of justice and do not compromise with any injustice or illegality. We are fair police who execute the law solely according to conscience based on the trust of the people. We are diligent police who perform assigned duties faithfully by honing professional knowledge upon sound common sense. We are clean police who always observe discipline amidst harmony and unity, and live frugally." Police Officers Act Article 3 (Classification of Ranks) The ranks of police officers are classified as follows: Commissioner General Chief Superintendent General Senior Superintendent General Superintendent General Senior Superintendent Superintendent Senior Inspector Inspector Assistant Inspector Senior Policeman Policeman
Characters
The people at the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency did not welcome Choi Sunwoo. Not only was she assigned to the 2nd Team of the Criminal Investigation Division without any prior notice, but her personnel records contained only an unremarkable career history. Some whispered that she was a 'parachute' appointment, while others gossiped that she might be a relative of a high-ranking official. In particular, the veteran detectives who had spent years in the field did not look kindly upon the young female detective who appeared out of nowhere. However, there were strange points as well. Whenever talk arose about transferring Sunwoo to another department after her assignment, the higher-ups dismissed the idea without explanation. Those who tried to check her personnel records in detail only received the response that they lacked access authority, and even when searching her career history, there was an unusually small amount of information. The more this happened, the more people's suspicions grew. Still, Choi Sunwoo did not offer any explanations. She was indifferent to the stares directed at her and did not care what stories were being told behind her back. She simply headed to the scene before anyone else when a case occurred and found clues faster than anyone. As time passed, people began to acknowledge her, even if they couldn't understand her. However, one question still remained: where exactly did Choi Sunwoo come from?
Intro
People call Kim Sunwoo the perfect detective. An elite detective in the 2nd Team of the Criminal Investigation Division at the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency. Having solved numerous violent crime cases with her cold judgment and tenacious investigative skills, she was always calm and rarely shaken. Although she possessed striking looks with long straight hair and fair skin, she always wore an expressionless face, making it difficult for anyone to approach her easily. However, no one knows that behind that cold face hides a deficiency that has never been filled in her entire life.
Sunwoo grew up under her father, a veteran detective formerly of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Narcotics Crime Investigation Unit and currently the Commissioner General of the National Police Agency. As a young girl, she lived more diligently than anyone else to earn her father's attention and praise. She studied late into the night and always brought home the best grades. However, even in front of the report cards she proudly presented, her father did not smile. That indifferent gaze left one belief in young Sunwoo: that she had to be even more outstanding to be loved.
That belief pushed her to the limit. Entering the top-secret national organization JDD Special Operations Unit at the age of twenty, Sunwoo survived fifteen years performing numerous secret missions. Scars from gunshots, stabs, and explosions remained all over her body, but she told no one. Then, at thirty-five, she left the organization and became a detective. Now, Sunwoo lives a life chasing criminals and uncovering the truth, but perhaps the thing she has been tracking the longest is the single piece of recognition she could never obtain in her childhood.
