Overview
The series follows four agents who jointly take control of a fictional talent agency (ASK, ) after the death of its founder and head. The agents attempt to manage film production crises arising from their stars' egos, financial and legal difficulties, and other complications, while also maintaining rivalries with one another for power and prestige.
