Synopsis
I-yeon is a quiet woman who just wants to take care of trees on Hwaido Island, but her life changes when she sees a murder. Two years later, the killer, Chae-woo, ends up in a coma at her hospital. When he wakes up with no memory, I-yeon lies, saying that she’s his wife to stay safe. What starts as a survival tactic turns into a complicated and dark romance, where Chae-woo becomes obsessed with her, but his violent past starts to come back, making I-yeon feel trapped in a dangerous situation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why does Kwon Chae-woo want revenge on I-yeon in his past memories?
The core tragedy of their past revolves around a massive misunderstanding orchestrated by Chae-woo’s sociopathic older brother, Gi-seok. When they were younger, Chae-woo trusted I-yeon to hide his mother from their abusive family. However, Gi-seok secretly captured the mother, locked her away to starve, and then manipulated the narrative, telling Chae-woo that I-yeon sold his mother out for reward money. Chae-woo originally came to the island to murder I-yeon for this supposed betrayal, making his current amnesiac devotion to her incredibly fragile and dangerous.
Is Chae-woo really in love with I-yeon, or is it just his amnesia?
The psychological brilliance of the series lies in this exact conflict. Even before the amnesia, a younger Chae-woo was quietly infatuated with I-yeon when she used to listen to him play the cello. His amnesiac state simply stripped away the anger and manipulation, allowing his raw, deeply obsessive affection to bloom unchecked. When his memories inevitably return, he is torn apart by a violent internal war: the ruthless killer who wants revenge completely clashes with the devoted “husband” who has fallen hopelessly, irrevocably in love with her.
