If you’re a fan of fantasy romances, do not give this one a miss. It follows Kang Bit-na, a cold and vicious judge who is known for her lack of empathy.

Detective Han Da-on is kind and empathetic but is hiding a painful past. What happens when the two meet and fall in love? Will the judge abandon her mission?
