After being accepted into a new school, Taeoh’s impressive grades draw the attention of the town bully, Kang Inha. The illegitimate child of the head of the Kangoh Group conglomerate, Inha has spent his life living as an outcast, using his connection to the group to intimidate people into doing what he wants.

Together the pair form an ambitious alliance, working tirelessly, seizing opportunities, and becoming the embodiment of excellence, with Inha in the spotlight and Taeoh secretly pulling the strings. As they get closer to their goal, their friendship and plan begins to falter with the surprise arrival of Hyewon, a beautiful woman with a similar past intellect and drive as Taeoh. As the series unfolds, a complex web of lies, betrayal and ambition gets weaved ever tighter threatening to bind the trio together or cut them down completely.
