Gisaeng Lee Sun seeks revenge against Han Seojin in 1930s Gyeongseong, their tragic past fueling a destructive love.
Gyeongseong is a city of desire and turmoil. Within it, a flower blooms without a smile: the gisaeng Lee Sun. After 10 years, she meets again the man who took everything from her, Han Seojin. A pain pierces her heart. Painful memories resurface with every moment. The only way to end it is to seek revenge against Han Seojin. Fate turns into a cruel connection, and a flower blossoms upon hatred. Inflicting wounds, devouring each other, and once again parting ways—all of this occurs in the melancholy city of romance, Gyeongseong. (Source: Naver Corporation, translated)
