Synopsis
College student becomes romance novel villainess, defies fate to rewrite her story in unfamiliar world.
Kim Jiyeon, an ordinary college student on break from her studies, unexpectedly finds herself transported into the pages of a romance novel called "Saint's Flower" that a friend had shown her. Now living as Iolara—a character who appears later in the story—she must navigate a world that isn't her own, where she seems destined to play the role of the antagonist. In this unfamiliar realm of romance and intrigue, Jiyeon discovers that her character is widely reviled as the villain who opposes the beloved female lead. However, as she begins to understand her new identity, she realizes that the truth about Iolara may be far more complex than the novel suggested. Determined to forge her own path rather than accept the fate written for her character, Jiyeon resolves to survive in this new world on her own terms. She faces the challenge of being seen as the villain while staying true to herself, all while discovering what it truly means to be the protagonist of her own story.
Kim Jiyeon, a college student on hiatus living an ordinary life, suddenly finds herself transmigrated into the romance novel Saint's Flower shown to her by a friend. She becomes the character Iolara, who only appeared halfway through the novel. The romantic world of the female lead and the male lead, which clearly isn't hers. Still, she thought she could be happy as one of the characters in the novel. Like she had become the novel's protagonist. But everyone despises her. Hates her. She's Iolara, the villain who torments the female lead, a fake saint. But it's not true. Iolara herself was the true saint. Returning to the beginning with the blessings of the gods, she didn't need her family, the people who hated her, the position of the saint, or her beloved fiancé. She was going to walk a different path from her past. "Even if this world tries to make me a villain, it doesn't matter. I will survive and be happy!"
