The gangster Fang Zi (played by Kim Joo-hyuk) finds a well-known local popular novelist and asks him to organize his story into writing... Fang Zi comes from a humble background and, at the age of thirty, becomes a personal servant to Lee Menglong (played by Ryu Seung-bum). Menglong falls in love at first sight with the daughter of the brothel owner, the courtesan Chunhyang (played by Jang Yu-jin). Although Fang Zi also has feelings for Chunhyang, due to his servant status, he can only support Menglong to showcase himself. The old caretaker Ma, who shares a room with Fang Zi, learns of his struggles and advises him on how to help facilitate a connection between Menglong and Chunhyang while also gaining her favor. Thus, Fang Zi secretly begins a rivalry with Menglong, and Chunhyang's mother is also a master of seduction. A competition of affection begins among the three, leading to an uncertain outcome. The film is adapted from the classic Korean novel "The Tale of Chunhyang."
