Storyline:

Moon Cha Min is the son of a wealthy chaebol family and also the CEO of a social club. He doesn’t care at all for women who dream of having a fairy tale romance like Cinderella. He is also an arrogant person. Cha Min becomes involved with Shim Jae Rim, who begins to work as a manager of his social club. She got the job at the social club in hopes of finding her own Prince Charming and getting away from her poor existence.

By working there, she grows as a person and gradually accepts her life. She also becomes more independent and doesn’t look for someone to rely upon. Cha Min and Jae Rim, who are totally opposite from each other, soon develop a romantic relationship.
