When Holy Source (Dong-wook Kim 饰) was still a prince, he met the minister Shin Cham-pan's daughter, Hua Yan (Yeo-Jeong Jo 饰), by chance and fell in love at first sight. However, his mother, for her political ambitions, promised Hua Yan to his half-brother as a queen, leading Holy Source to leave the country. Hua Yan, who was in love with a servant named Quan Yong (Min-jun Kim 饰), inadvertently learned that she was to enter the palace as a concubine, and in an attempt to elope, she was caught by her father and had to enter the palace to protect her lover's life. Five years later, the prince fell seriously ill. Under the schemes and arrangements of his mother, King Holy Source returned to the palace to inherit the throne as a puppet emperor, and Hua Yan's father was persecuted and executed by his mother during a coup. At this time, King Holy Source encountered Hua Yan, who had become the imperial sister-in-law, and the constraints of power ignited his forbidden desires. Meanwhile, the household servant Quan Yong, who failed to elope to save his life, was castrated by Shin Cham, and in order to take revenge and ascend to power, he became an inner servant, enduring humiliation to survive. Set against the backdrop of palace intrigue, the fates of the three intertwine, brewing a tragedy amidst the conflicting contradictions of love, desire, power, passion, and hatred.
