As he rolls around, he overlooks the fact that Soo-ok, whom he saw for the first time in the world of Namchang, is a homogeneous human being with him and asks for a suit. Su-ok spends his childhood in the arms of her mother, who is both princesses, and comes out of college, but her lover Deok-ki learns about Su-ok's living environment and abandons her. Around the time Su-ok, who suffered a broken heart, is the main object and is self-disciplined, he meets and falls in love with Dong-sik. As Dong-sik gets hurt, Su-ok comes to Su-ok and insults him.
