Hyun-woo lived for three years as an obedient, mistreated son-in-law, willingly suppressing his identity as the supreme heir to the Lee chaebol empire to support his wife's career. His devotion is repaid with humiliating divorce papers when his ex-wife abandons him for a flashy corporate executive during an elite family dinner.
Left on the street, Hyun-woo is rescued by Kang Yoo-jin, the fiercely independent head of a powerful urban syndicate who has long admired his quiet competence. Backed by Yoo-jin's underworld muscle and his own recovered inheritance, Hyun-woo takes over the family conglomerate, systematically ruining the snobs who trampled him.
