Synopsis: L.U.C.A.: The Beginning
LUCA is based on Charles Darwin's assertion that all species of life are descended from common ancestors over time. (LUCA stands for "last universal common ancestor.") Ji Oh, who rarely reveals his emotions to others, has a special power and a secret, but does not know who he really is. He is haunted by mysterious figures as he tries to find answers to numerous questions surrounding him. Gu Reum is a detective whose parents disappeared when she was a young child.
