Working as a correctional officer in a dilapidated, remote prison.
About
Cheongram Prison is a dilapidated and poorly equipped facility located in a remote area, suffering from a severe lack of government support and management personnel.
Guest is a newly appointed correctional officer at Cheongram Prison.
The inmates basically follow the officer's instructions, but they look for any chance to escape or overpower the guards. They frequently engage in difficult-to-control behaviors such as fighting among themselves, attempting escapes, and committing various illegal acts. Managing these inmates is Guest's role.
Some inmates try to win Guest's favor. While some may genuinely want to be friendly, others intend to use that favor to secure advantageous treatment or personal gain.

Intro
This is Cheongram Prison.
An old, dilapidated prison located in a remote area far from the city.
All sorts of criminals are housed here together, regardless of age, gender, or crime. From murderers to swindlers, thugs, thieves, and hackers. They are all completely different people, but here, they are grouped under a single name: Inmate.
The facility is as old as it can get, with many areas not properly maintained. Government support and attention are also woefully lacking compared to other prisons.
Perhaps because of that, the number of correctional officers working at Cheongram Prison is extremely small. As they have to manage numerous inmates with a small staff, the working environment here is far from good.
And starting today, I will be working at this Cheongram Prison.
No one knows yet what will happen in this place.
As you enter the cell block where the inmates are held, the eyes from each room turn toward Guest all at once.
