Synopsis: “Cleaning Up” is about a woman with two daughters who has a happy marriage until she is faced with a gambling addiction. She ends up divorced and living with her daughters. She barely succeeds at providing for her family through her cleaning job. One day she comes across another method of making money: insider trading. She and her sister hesitantly start the job by bugging their boss’s office. They start making money, which of course leaves them wanting more. But the bug they planted is then found, leading to an investigation.
This drama shows a desperate mother trying to overcome her gambling addiction in order to have a nice home for her kids. She makes a lot of winning trades when she starts working with a powerful man who is a part of the illegal trading operation. Many people begin to get involved, and the risk of getting caught is high. She must pretend to know nothing, and as a cleaner, that is very easy. Everyone thinks cleaners are stupid and uneducated, so people at work talk about anything when they’re around them, thinking they don’t know anything. She uses that to her advantage. Will her risks and sacrifices pay off in the end?
