Plot

Julian (Kim Joohyuk) has lived off with the money he lures from his rich female customers. But now he faces usurious debts from a hasty expansion of his business, and he will be killed unless he clears the debt in one month. The only way to save himself is to pretend to be the long-lost brother of an heiress and kill her to get her huge fortune. Min (Moon Geun-young), the blind cold-hearted heiress likes Julian, she slowly opens herself to him, and he, too, falls for her. But Julian has to pay his creditor and what makes it worse for him is that the illness that took Min’s eyesight relapsed, threatening her life. This story takes a terrible turn when Julian becomes guilty, and pained with guilt.

gollark: Hmm. With enough use that might actually become problematic.
gollark: It would have been terrible if they didn't.
gollark: I imagine the drama would be something like "but this causes too much instant gratification, being able to just autoincubate everything".
gollark: Go to Suggestions/Requests! Best way to get your ideas ignored and cause drama simultaneously.
gollark: You should prōbably fog it.
