The Innocent Villain

The Innocent Villain follows Jiho, a talented but underestimated artist who is betrayed and abandoned by those he trusted most. Once dismissed as talentless and useless, Jiho faces a pivotal choice: surrender to defeat or rise above the lies and deception that sought to bury him. With the unexpected aid of a mysterious ally, K, Jiho embarks on a relentless quest to reclaim his name, expose the deep corruption lurking beneath the industry’s glamorous surface, and exact revenge on those who wronged him.



As Jiho navigates a treacherous world of betrayal, jealousy, and public scandal, he learns that true power lies not just in success but in forgiveness and unity. Together with his loyal friends and newfound family, Jiho challenges the systemic darkness that threatens to consume them all.



The Innocent Villain is a gripping tale of resilience, the cost of ambition, and the blurred lines between villainy and heroism—where the fallen can rise to become legends, and the quietest voices can spark the loudest revolutions.
