In times when one who slaughters animals was called a butcher and looked down upon, a The Slave Hunters was considered even more lowly than beasts for their job of hunting down human beings. But Dae-gil (played by Jang Hyeok) decides to become such a The Slave Hunters to make a living after he becomes the only one left of his once-wealthy upper class household which has exterminated from a fire set by a servant under his control. Dae-gil, who takes on the boss of the top Chuno gang of the Joseon Dynasty, composed of Jang-goon (Han Jeong-soo) who ruins both himself and his family after failing to pass the military service examination and former thief Wangsoni (Kim Ji-seok-I), one day receive a request to capture Tae-ha (Oh Ji-ho), a man slave in government employ, who has taken flight. Dae-gil, who must catch Tae-ha in order to maintain his reputation for the job and also to accumulate wealth in preparation for his old age, becomes involved in the mission he must complete while avoiding the threat of a mass of servants who have formed a society.

Meanwhile, Tae-ha, a former military officer who falls from grace after the prince he served becomes assassinated, decides to run away from his life as a slave to achieve his dream of enhancing national prosperity and defense of the country. He does not have an easy time living as a slave on the run but his feelings start growing for another runway slave Hye-won (Lee Da-hae) who actually used to be Dae-gil's first love Un-nyun. The TV series will premiere on KBS2-TV on January 6, 9:55 P.M.
