Summary
Dokyeong, a celebrated actor, finds his illustrious 15-year career teetering on the brink of collapse. Just as he contemplates abandoning the spotlight forever, a mysterious woman steps into his life with an audacious proposition: “I could have a relationship of convenience with you, Dokyeong.” Her offer is a lifeline, a shield against the relentless scrutiny threatening his career. But what’s in it for her? Her own life story is a tragic drama, facing a forced marriage to a notorious junkie. A scandalous alliance of convenience seems like the perfect solution for both.
What begins as a pragmatic agreement soon blurs the lines. As their fake relationship deepens, the stakes rise, and the unthinkable becomes a real possibility: “If things get worse, we might have to get married.” To his surprise, she readily agrees, preferring a contractual union over her grim alternative. Yet, the more time they spend together, the more Dokyeong finds himself falling for the woman he hired to save his career. The boundaries of their agreement begin to crumble, leading to a bold question: “Just asking, can we kiss during the contracted period?” Her response is even bolder: “Mr. Han… Let’s do something more than just a kiss.” What started as a desperate pact to escape their respective fates soon ignites an outrageous rumor, transforming their convenient lie into a passionate reality.
