Choi Kangjoo, the current heir to Taeyang Group, had been arranged to marry heiress Jang Yigyeong when she suddenly disappears. The Jang family, desperate to maintain the engagement, finds a poor village girl, Na Doorim, who looks exactly like Yigyeong, and convinces her to masquerade as the missing heiress in exchange for a sizeable sum of money. Doorim's sweet and sunny personality captivates Kangjoo but he has no idea about her hidden identity nor about his family's hundred-year-curse. What will happen when these two people end up falling in love with each other?
