The Corrupt Official Hides the Status Window

A lifelong civil service exam candidate is sent back to the Joseon Dynasty and must rise to the highest government office—or lose his soul. While walking through Noryangjin, he stops at a cup-rice restaurant, where the owner promises to grant his wish to enter government service. He accepts the terms and becomes Kim Un-haeng, tasked with reaching the position of Chief State Councilor. To do so, he must navigate the dangerous politics surrounding King Yeongjo and Crown Prince Sado, without the modern inventions other time travelers might rely on.
