Synopsis:
Prosecutor Min Tae Yeon is bitten by somebody and becomes a Vampire. Tae Yeon rejects the life of a vampire and he survives by drinking the blood of dead people and lives as a righteous prosecutor .

A mysterious case then occurs and the evidence points to a Vampire as the perpetrator. Tae Yeon now knows that he is not the only Vampire. He also ponders why he became a Vampire and what truths may lie behind their motives.
Slacker's review:
"VP" is an interesting drama of a vampire, who's got a proper job - prosecutor. The drama has 2 main plots, one is to crack mysterious cases, and the other is to find out what happened to Tae Yeon's missing sister, who was also bitten by a vampire. I liked how these 2 plots sort of linked together.
Yun Jung Hoon has not impressed me with his previous works, but he outshines in this drama. Good acting and full of charisma!
Lee Young Ah also looked somewhat different from the past. I liked the tinge of romance b/w Jung In and Tae Yeon. Actually there is no romance per se, but you can feel that their relationship as just being co-workers have moved on to another stage...being supportive and protecting each other.
I believe I might get to see Season 2 soon.
