Narco-Saints is a South Korean crime drama television series that premiered on Netflix in September 2022. The gripping series follows the story of Kang In-gu, an ordinary entrepreneur whose life is turned upside down when he gets caught up in the dangerous world of drug cartels.

After losing his business and livelihood, Kang In-gu becomes desperate to provide for his family. He takes a risky job from a mysterious employer that requires him to transport narcotics. Unbeknownst to Kang In-gu, he has become a pawn for an elaborate plan masterminded by Jeon Yo-hwan, a National Intelligence Service agent trying to expose a massive international drug ring.

As Kang In-gu gets sucked deeper into the drug trade, he quickly rises up the ranks to become a drug lord known as a "Narco-Saint." Kang In-gu attempts to take down the powerful drug cartels from the inside while avoiding capture and protecting his family.

Jeon Yo-hwan aids Kang In-gu's mission by feeding him strategic information to dismantle the cartel's operations. The two make an unlikely duo as the upstanding agent and degraded drug lord team up for a noble cause. However, Jeon Yo-hwan's superior Choi Chang-ho has suspicions about his underling's side dealings.

Narco-Saints explores the gray morality of fighting evil with evil. Kang In-gu descends into the darkness of the criminal underworld with the hope that he can eventually shed light upon it and bring down the cartels that are poisoning societies around the world. His noble intentions become muddied by his growing power and influence as a drug kingpin.

The action-packed drama series escalates as Kang In-gu wages war against several cartels at once while trying to avoid being killed or arrested. With Jeon Yo-hwan's help, he gains intelligence that allows him to outmaneuver his enemies. However, the intricate game of deception becomes increasingly complex and dangerous.

Through its captivating plot and multi-faceted characters, Narco-Saints provides insightful commentary on the global drug problem. The show represents the cartels as an intricate web of corruption that infests governments and law enforcement agencies around the world. Kang In-gu's quest starts off small but expands into an international operation targeting drug rings across Latin America, Europe, Africa and Asia.

Backed by stunning cinematography and production values, Narco-Saints provides an electrifying look into covert operations against unimaginably powerful adversaries. The series is anchored by an incredible lead performance by Ha Jung-woo as the unwitting hero sucked into the drug war and challenged with wrestling with his morals. Supporting roles portrayed by Hwang Jung-min, Park Hae-soo, Jo Woo-jin and Yoo Yeon-seok are also highlights of the stellar cast.

Critically acclaimed for its ambitious scope, high-stakes drama and resonant themes, Narco-Saints is essential viewing for fans of crime sagas and international intrigue. Though fictional, the show insightfully examines real-world issues surrounding the global drug trade's corruption and the extreme lengths gone to combat it. Kang In-gu's thrilling journey through the narco underworld will leave audiences pondering grave ethical questions long after the credits roll.

Narco-Saints is a series that ran for 1 seasons (6 episodes) between September 9, 2022 and on Netflix
