Spoilers

The Killing Vote will introduce Park Hae Jin as an investigation officer named Kim Moo Chan. He works at the regional investigation unit of the Southern Provincial Police Agency as the head of Team 1. Park Sung Woong will appear in the mini-series as a long-term prison inmate named Kwon Suk Joo. He kills the person who sexually assaulted her daughter, 8, and turns himself.

Kwon Suk Joo was one of the most respected people in Korea because he was a famous legal expert. Even after going behind bars, people respected him as a teacher-like figure. His inmates and others in the prison referred to him as a professor. With the three-dimensional character, unwavering eyes, and a deep, low voice, he hides his emotions and walks the line between good and evil.

Lim Ji Yeon will feature fifth-year lieutenant Joo Hyun in The Killing Vote. She works at the Cyber Security Bureau of the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency. Although she received praise for her talents and got specially hired for the Cyber Investigation Team in the past, she became someone who is always under fire.

The other cast members of this legal drama are Kim Yoo Mi, Shin Jung Geun, Kim Kwon, Seo Young Joo, Choi Yu Hwa, and Kwon Ah Reum.
