Oh Ssu-Ni ([[Jang Na-Ra]]) is a musical actress with a bright personality. Suddenly, she marries Emperor Lee Hyuk ([[Shin Sung-Rok]]). There, Oh Ssu-Ni goes up against absolute power of the palace and fights against the power. Meanwhile, she falls in love with Na Wang-Sik ([[Choi Jin-Hyuk]]) who is a bodyguard of the imperial family.
