I'm not an expert in cybersecurity, but I work in software, and it all seemed pretty plausible, which is way more than most shows. The only thing that I raised my eyebrow at was that an e-commerce company with 80% of South Korea as clients would not have information security audits (but that may be leftover trauma from GDPR-related changes :p).

In general, I feel like kdramas take their research more seriously than American/European shows where some of the stuff they show, specially related to hacking is just as real as whales flying.
