Synopsis

Young-Jin, a 27-old-lady with natural born pride and desire to succeed and be recognized is not backed up at all by her poor family; rather she needs to take care of all of messes and fusses that her grandfather, father, and younger brother committed. Having nothing to trust except for her own body and soul, she exerts herself to finally be appointed as a bodyguard of the Blue House of Korea known as Chungwadae. At the Blue House, Young-Jin meets Gwanpil, a smart, excellent, cynical and charismatic colleague, who by instinct recognize each other as formidable rivals. They bump into each other at every course of training, extremely competing to beat the other, and what a mischievous fate! They end up being partner to protect Suho, the only son of Mr. President for 15 months. Suho is an unstoppable rascal with high intelligence and violent nature. Suho is the key person who discloses the past of Gwanpil and realizes the true virtue of family and love. By describing two vivid characters Youn-Jin and Gwanpil, [Formidable Rivals] shows the life of bodyguards who by nature cannot be spotlighted. This is the story of the others, non-heros, who support protagonists. They also have their own way of life, own value of family and love.
