In a city of glittering skyscrapers and ruthless ambition, a quiet book editor, Hana, becomes an accidental pawn in a high-stakes corporate game. When the Hanseong Group's heir, Minjun, finds his fiancée has run away, he offers Hana a deal: pose as his bride for a Christmas wedding. The price? He'll save her family's failing publishing house.
But their simple contract explodes into a web of deceit. As fake smiles turn to unsettling truths and staged affection blurs into something dangerously real, Hana realizes she's no longer just a stand-in. She's become Minjun's most valuable asset and, perhaps, his most terrifying obsession. Trapped in a gilded cage of her own making, she must navigate a world of power, lies, and a love she never saw coming.
She replaced the real bride. Now she's the real deal.
