Jae-Hyeon Sin possesses a strange ability—the power to see illegally withheld taxes as numbers floating above people’s heads. When he exposes corruption within his own company, he’s fired and branded a traitor. Shut out of the private sector, Jae-Hyeon joins the government, determined to hunt down white-collar criminals who exploit tax loopholes for profit. As the self-proclaimed “Tax Reaper,” he uses his gift to bring justice where the law often turns a blind eye.
The Tax Reaper turns an unglamorous topic—tax law—into a sharp and oddly cathartic vigilante story. Instead of fists and blades, the protagonist wields audits, evidence, and absolute moral clarity.
What makes the series compelling is its target selection. These aren’t cartoon villains, but realistic abusers of power: executives, officials, and businessmen who hide behind legality. The supernatural element enhances the narrative without overshadowing its grounded critique.
This is perfect for readers who enjoy justice-focused stories with intelligence over brute force.
