The Tyrant features talented and versatile actors, including Cha Seung-won (playing Lim Sang-won), Kim Seon-ho (playing director Choi), Kim Kang-woo (playing Paul), and Jo Yoon-so (playing Ja-kyung). The trailer began showcasing a glimpse of Director Choi walking somewhere and transitioning to a car accident on a rainy night.
During the accident, the last sample of The Tyrant program sample disappeared, which contained a drug that could develop a superhuman gene. It fell into someone's hands.

Director Choi and Paul confronted each other, with Paul asking about the drug's location and why Choi created an uncontrollable virus. The teaser then showed action-packed scenes of the drug hunt and introduced actors Cha Seung-won, Kim Seon-ho, Kim Kang-woo, and Jo Yoon-soo.
