Synopsis
Wheelchair-bound Empress Stella navigates love, duty, and self-worth in an arranged marriage with the Emperor.
In a world where duty and desire intertwine, Stella enters an arranged marriage with the Emperor—not out of ambition, but because her heart has chosen him above all else. Despite facing physical challenges that keep her bound to a wheelchair, she dedicates herself wholeheartedly to both her role as Empress and her relationship with her husband. However, as she navigates the complexities of palace life and imperial responsibilities, Stella finds herself at a crossroads where love, loyalty, and self-worth collide. When circumstances take an unexpected turn, she must make choices that will redefine her understanding of love and power in ways she never imagined. (Source: Naver Corporation, translated)
