After losing their most precious possession amid secrets and desires, Park Jin-hee and Nam Sang-ji's characters return under false identities to face the truth. What begins as a relationship based on revenge evolves beyond conflict to solidarity and understanding, with a richly constructed “womance” at the heart of the story.

Twins, tragedy, and metamorphosis

Park Jin-hee takes on a major challenge by playing 2 twin sisters, Kim Myung-hee and Kim Dan-hee. The eldest, Myung-hee, is a kind-hearted nurse who aspires to a simple and happy life. But her reality is brutally shattered when she discovers an unexpected truth, before meeting a tragic fate.

After her sister's death, Dan-hee learns the true circumstances of the tragedy. She then renounces her own existence and chooses to live under Myung-hee's identity, determined to carry out a methodical revenge to take control of the Adele group. A radical transformation that makes her a woman driven by anger and strategy.

An alliance forged in pain

On his side, Nam Sang-ji plays a woman whose life is turned upside down after the sudden loss of her family in an accident. Driven by a desire for revenge, she abandons her name and her past to become Chloe Lee, a world-renowned brand consultant. Under this new identity, she infiltrates the Adele group to orchestrate her revenge, until an unexpected obstacle threatens to derail her plans.
