After Ah-Ryung’s death in the first episode of The Player 2: Master of Swindlers, Ha-Ri continues his work with his other two fellows. Meanwhile, Jae-Yi pushes Ha-Ri to let her take her sister’s place as the group’s driver. The team leader refuses, but Jae-Yi is determined.

Jae-Yi even calls up the cops on them and reveals the truth while forcing them to get in her car. This is when she showcases her driving skills and proves she is as talented as Ah-Ryung. With her on the team, Ha-Ri’s heists continue. Meanwhile, a businessman named Kang Do-Young grabs attention with his scheme that offers people a good investment option. However, a few days later, news states that his scheme has failed and all those middle-class people have lost a whopping amount.

One day, Ha-Ri receives a letter leading him to Pattaya, Thailand. There, he meets Jung Soo-Min (Oh Yeon-So), and a flirtatious relationship starts between them. She wants him to set his next target on fraudster Do-Young. When she invites the swindlers to Do-Young’s party, a man fires a gun at the host. Ha-Ri jumps in to save Do-Young but also advises the man to run and save himself. Later, Ha-Ri and his team learn that the man’s wife invested all her savings in Do-Young’s scheme. After it failed, she died due to severe depression.

Meanwhile, Ha-Ri plans a strategy with his team to scam Do-Young and steal the money he stole from 1,200 commoners.

The Player 2: Master of Swindlers‘ first episode further shows Ha-Ri meeting Do-Young as one of his juniors in school. He asks the fraudster’s help to invest in his company, which scams people. The next day, Ha-Ri and Byung-Min, disguised as rich people, visit Do-Young in a secluded building.

Ha-Ri assumes his plan is working, as Do-Young shows interest in his scheme. When Ha-Ri mentions that Do-Young will have a 50 percent share, the latter begins to laugh. Suddenly, the atmosphere changes and Do-Young says, “Don’t you think I know you will try to steal my money if I rush to hop on board?” With bodyguards pointing guns at them, Ha-Ri and Byung-Min try to calm down Do-Young and state that there must be some misunderstanding.

The episode then focuses on a woman coming down the stairs. Do-Young turns around and asks, “Did I misunderstand?” Ha-Ri becomes shocked as the woman turns out to be Soo-Min. She comments, “What did I tell you? I told you they are all scammers,” and points at Ha-Ri and Byung-Min.
