Meanwhile, Han Sun Hwa and Yeon Woo Jin appear as younger versions of Choi Yeon Soo and Han Jung Hyun, who live during a time of oppression and resistance. They became entangled as though they were destined, but they inevitably have to keep secrets.

Han Jung Hyun is an agent with the National Intelligence Service (NIS) who’s been hiding his true identity after he fell in love with Choi Yeon Soo, and they went on to get married. His life gets caught up in an uncontrollable whirlwind when his wife becomes nominated for the CIO position. Lawyer Choi Yeon Soo made the pursuit of justice and truth her life mission, but when she’s considered for the post at the CIO, she encounters a shocking truth.
