  • Lee Min Ho as Lee Yoon Sung/Poo Chai (Johnny Lee)
Lee Yoon Sung is the "City Hunter". His ultimate goal is to avenge his father's killers as the City Hunter. Using the dead Korean-American John Lee's identity, he gets his Doctoral degree at MIT, and enters employment at Korea's presidential palace. While taking revenge, he falls in love with a presidential guard called Kim Na Na. He tries to protect Na Na from the many enemies hunting him down.
She is a judo master, forced to fend for herself at an early age after her mother was killed in a drunk driving accident and her father was placed in a coma. She has to take many jobs in order to support herself. Her exceptional skills in martial arts allowed her to be chosen as one of the president's bodyguards. During her time as a bodyguard, she falls in love with Lee Yoon Sung. Unknowningly shooting him in the shoulder while he was city hunter, she later discovers his identity and tries to aid him in his revenge.

The story starts in 1983. The South Korean president and his delegates are visiting Burma (now Myanmar) when a bomb planted by North Korea explodes, killing some high ranking officials. This historical event is called the Rangoon bombing (also known as the Rangoon incident). To strike back, five South Korean officials plan an underground operation to enter North Korea and kill North Korean agents. Unbeknownst to the South Korean president, Lee Jin Pyo (Kim Sang-joong) and Park Moo Yul (Park Sang-min), two bodyguards at the Blue House (South Korean presidential palace), organize a 21-men troop to execute the plan. However, as the operation is taking place, five high-ranking officials change their minds and abort the plan in order to avoid an international crisis if the mission is discovered. Their major concern is that the United States will withdraw its nuclear protection if the mission is made public.
The operation is successful, but as the troops swim to the submarine which is supposed to take them back to South Korea, snipers from the submarine shoot and kill all of the troop members, except Lee Jin Pyo, while they are still in the water. An already injured Park Moo Yul uses his body to shield Jin Pyo, thus saving his life. Jin Pyo swims back to shore and returns to South Korea, where he finds out that there are a total of five officials responsible for aborting the operation.
Vowing to avenge his fallen comrades, including his closest and best friend Park Moo Yul, he kidnaps Moo Yul's infant son and flees to Southeast Asia'sGolden Triangle, specifically the mountainous Burmese-Thai border. There, he raises the child as his own and trains the boy intensively in combat. Following an attack on the village, Jin Pyo confesses his long-term plan for revenge to the child, Lee Yoon Sung (Lee Min-ho).
Seven years later, after successfully finishing his college years and attaining a doctorate in the United States at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Yoon-sung returns to South Korea to fulfill his step-father's plan for revenge. He enters the Blue House as an IT expert under the National Communication Network Team. He is warned by Jin-pyo not to trust anyone and never to fall in love, as doing so will put the people around him in danger.
In Blue House, he meets bodyguard Kim Na Na (Park Min-young). The story of love and revenge begins. Eventually Kim Na Na helps him to take revenge, as they discover that they have the same goal in mind. Both of them start working together, but problems occur during their revenge plot.
A twist occurs as the full truth is revealed. Lee Yoon Sung discovered that his biological father is the president, Choi Eung Chan, the last of the five council members who decided on killing the special ops team that was sent to Nampo waters in North Korea. Choi Eung Chan is also the last target of Lee Jin Pyo, and supposedly, the city hunter's last target as well.
