📌 Synopsis
Kang Sang Ung is an ordinary public servant living a quiet life. However, he hides a strange secret. His superhuman strength depends on how much cash he carries. The more money he has with him, the stronger he becomes. When the cash runs low, his power weakens. Managing this unusual ability becomes his biggest daily challenge.
His girlfriend, Kim Min Suk, is practical and realistic. She understands Sang Ung’s struggles and continues to support him, even though his power is highly inconvenient. Her calm and logical nature balances Sang Ung’s chaotic life.
They are joined by others with unusual abilities. Byeon Ho In is a lawyer who secretly leads a supernatural organization. Bang Eun Mi has telekinetic powers that work based on the calories she consumes. Each of them carries powers that come with serious limitations.
Together, this group tries to protect their normal lives while dealing with villains who threaten to disturb the world’s balance. As danger grows, they must learn how to work together, accept their weaknesses, and decide how far they are willing to go to protect what matters.
