In episode 3 of the tvN Wednesday-Thursday drama 'Stealer: Seven Notices of Joseon', which airs on the 19th, Hwang Dae-myeong (played by Joo Won), an official at the Cultural Heritage Administration, is put into the auction house held by Kim Young-soo (played by Lee Deok-hwa) and shows off his potential as an ace.
In the previous broadcast, the thrilling action of Hwang Dae-myeong's alter ego, Skunk, was shown, but this time, public servant Hwang Dae-myeong's outstanding performance will be depicted. When the celadon inlaid chemical vase, a national treasure-level cultural asset, is in danger of being auctioned off, Hwang Dae-myeong is selected as the special ace to save the Cultural Heritage Administration in crisis, showing a charm that cannot be hated.
The person who put the celadon bottle up for auction is Kim Young-soo, director of the Mugung Museum of Art, and there are suspicions that the cultural assets he possesses are treasures forcibly looted during the Japanese colonial period. In particular, since he was born into a pro-Japanese family and held various important positions until after liberation, enjoying the ultimate in greed, it is predicted that a formidable fight will begin in front of Hwang Dae-myeong, who must recover the celadon maebyeong.
The released photo shows Hwang Dae-myeong and Jin Ae-ri (Choi Seol), the youngest employee of the Cultural Heritage Administration, who eventually entered the auction house. Unlike Jin Ae-ri, who clearly looks nervous, Hwang Dae-myeong is shouting to fight with a confident attitude. I wonder whether Hwang Dae-myeong, who has so far received only disapproving looks from his colleagues, will be able to return home with a celadon bottle in his arms using the 10 billion emergency budget.
Meanwhile, Kim Young-soo is sitting in the exhibitor's seat, watching the auction with ambitious eyes. There is a bloody atmosphere surrounding him, and attention is focused on the number of dice he will throw.
Above all, standing next to Kim Young-soo is the killer Jo Huin-dal (played by Kim Jae-cheol), who committed a merciless murder in order to obtain the Chosun Tongbo that was breached last time, so it is presumed that his The influence was behind Jo Huin-dal's actions. Tension creeps in as Kim Young-soo's ulterior motive to gain control of Joseon with an unprecedented assassin under his command.
