Logan is bickering with his girlfriend in the shower when the floor drops out — and he wakes on his back in a dark 1947 room, hands tied, a woman in a suit standing over him. She runs the Ruby Club, has been holding a ring for ten years, and is convinced he is Jade-Faced Yama, the assassin who vanished. Every line he says digs the hole deeper, and by morning he is in her bed, still not knowing the real Jade Face is his twin brother.

About the show

Source: YourChannel official drama page & player — editorial coverage based on the opening arc; series details verified 27 Oct 2026.

Logan is in the shower, the water still running, when the floor drops out from under him. One second he is complaining to his girlfriend about how long she is taking, the next he is on his back in a dark room, hands tied, a woman in a suit standing over him. His first words are the truth: 'Where am I? Why am I tied up? Who are you? Let me go.' She asks why he was at the Ruby Club, why he teamed up with the Irish mob to steal meds. Logan is bewildered: 'I'm Logan. I didn't steal anything. I'm from 2024. I was literally in my bathroom a second ago.' She laughs: 'Why not say you're from Mars, too?'

Then she shows him the ring. It is Jade Face's ring — the ring of the legendary assassin who vanished ten years ago. Logan fumbles with it: 'This is Jade Face's ring, my ring. Wait, this isn't mine. Mine's stainless steel.' He keeps insisting he is not Jade Face, that he is just a regular guy who cannot even kill a chicken. But the serum she slipped him is already heating up under his skin, and his only move is to tell her, 'You gave me sea drug. Get the hell out of here while I can still think straight.' She does not leave. She sits on the edge of the chair and watches him sweat.

By the next morning he is in her bed. She wakes up and asks: 'Gotta ask, are you really Jade Face?' Logan says yes. She makes him prove it — 'Jade face disappeared 10 years ago, didn't he? Where have you been all that time?' Logan can only stammer that he does not remember. She does not push. She tells him he was pretty rough last night, and says she is not letting him go. Logan has not worked out that the woman in his bed has been holding a ring for ten years, waiting for a man who is not him — and that the real Jade Face is his twin brother, still out there.

Ordinary, glasses, and definitely not a killer. Logan was mid-shower when time dropped him into a smoky 1947 room. He has never held a gun, let alone a knife, and his only survival move is to pretend he is the legend everyone says he is.

I'm Logan. I didn't steal anything. I'm from 2024. I was literally in my bathroom a second ago.

The boss who runs the Ruby Club and has waited ten years for Jade Face

Short dark hair, red lipstick, suit and white shirt, she runs the Ruby Club with a grip no one in 1947 Chicago tests. She pulled Logan out of the trunk herself, tied him to the chair, and slipped him the serum to see if he would flinch.

Why not say you're from Mars, too?

The Real Jade Face — The legendary assassin missing for ten years — Logan's twin brother
The Real Jade Face
The legendary assassin missing for ten years — Logan's twin brother

Jade-Faced Yama is the name that made 1947 Chicago sleep with one eye open. He vanished a decade ago, and the mafia queen has been holding his ring ever since. No one knows he has a twin brother — least of all Logan.

Jade face disappeared 10 years ago, didn't he? Where have you been all that time?

Standout scenes

Editorial picks from the opening arc — the shower drop, the wrong ring, and the man she is actually waiting for. No ending spoilers.

Episode 1

The Shower Drop

Logan is in the middle of a normal 2024 morning — bickering with his girlfriend in the bathroom — when the floor drops out. One second he is complaining about the water, the next he is tied to a chair in 1947 Chicago. His first line: 'Where am I? Why am I tied up? Who are you? Let me go.'

Episode 2

The Wrong Ring

The mafia queen shows him Jade Face's ring. Logan fumbles it off his own finger: 'This is Jade Face's ring, my ring. Wait, this isn't mine. Mine's stainless steel.' He swears he cannot even kill a chicken — but the serum she slipped him is already heating up, and she is not buying the act.

Episode 3

Prove It

The queen sits on the edge of the chair and asks: 'Gotta ask, are you really Jade Face?' Logan says yes. She makes him prove it — 'Jade face disappeared 10 years ago, didn't he? Where have you been all that time?' By morning they are in bed together, and she tells him she is not letting him go.

Episode 3

The Man She Is Waiting For

Logan has not worked it out yet, but the ring on the table is the wrong metal, the eyes are softer, the man she remembers never once said he could not kill a chicken. The real Jade Face is still missing — and the woman in his bed has been holding his ring for ten years, waiting for the twin brother Logan never knew he had.

Editor's take

Our editors' notes on the opening arc — personal picks, not audience feedback.

WebDramas editorial · on the premise

A hero who is completely out of his depth. Logan is not a rogue, not a chosen one, not a secret badass — he is an office worker who took a shower and woke up in 1947. Every time he opens his mouth he digs the hole deeper, and the show lets him sweat while the audience is in on the con with him.

WebDramas editorial · on the mafia queen

She is not a rescue. She tied him up, slipped him the serum, and made him prove who he was. She has been holding a ring for ten years, and she is the one who decides whether the man in her bed lives or dies.

WebDramas editorial · on the twin-brother twist

The ring, the missing years, the wrong-metal clue — the opening act plants the bomb and lets you watch Logan fall for a woman who is not yet honest about who she actually wants. The real Jade Face is still out there.

WebDramas editorial · the bottom line

Best for viewers who like mistaken-identity gangland romance with a fish-out-of-water lead; if you want a straight tough-guy anti-hero, Logan spends his first episodes flinching instead. Compared with most mafia-shorts, this one runs on comedy-of-errors tension — the audience knows the con is thin before she does — that gap is both its strength and its limit.
