tvN’s upcoming drama “Parole Examiner Lee” has released a teaser for its first episode!
“Parole Examiner Lee” follows lawyer Lee Han Shin (Go Soo), who becomes a parole officer responsible for making final decisions on inmate paroles. Lee Han Shin is determined to prevent inmates who show little remorse for their crimes from obtaining paroles through money, connections, or deceitful tactics.
The teaser captures viewers’ interest by showcasing Lee Han Shin’s efforts to become a parole officer. In the video, Lee Han Shin tries to win the favor of Ji Dong Man (Song Young Chang), the chairman of the powerful Ojung Group, by volunteering as his private lawyer. After introducing himself as lawyer Lee Han Shin, he goes to great lengths to impress the chairman, including wearing flashy clothes to put on a performance and even stirring Chairman Ji Dong Man’s bibimbap for him.
In one scene, a voice asks, “How can you side with Chairman Ji Dong Man? Are you really trying to release someone who threatens others’ lives?” The teaser then shows flashbacks of Lee Han Shin’s time as a prison guard, where he helplessly watched someone being dragged away. Ji Dong Man’s son Ji Myung Seob (Lee Hak Joo) appears, arrogantly shaking a parole certificate as he taunts Lee Han Shin, saying, “Didn’t I tell you? You won’t be able to stop it.” This hints at a strained relationship with the Ojung Group that dates back to Lee Han Shin’s days as a prison guard.
Returning to the present, Lee Han Shin asks Chairman Ji, “Please make me a parole officer.” Unaware of his true motives, Chairman Ji casually asks, “Who is this prisoner you’re so eager to keep behind bars?” Building anticipation for an intense showdown between Lee Han Shin and the father-son duo, Ji Dong Man and Ji Myung Seob, of Ojung Group.
