In this romantic drama, conflicting desires and opposition to a proposed marriage take center stage. When wealthy heir Lee Do-han suggests a sham marriage to the relatively unknown actress Na A-jeong, she seizes the chance despite Do-han's homosexuality. Complications arise when Do-han's ambitious younger brother, Lee Ji-han, intervenes to thwart the relationship, unable to bear witness to the unfolding of their fictitious marriage.
