There is a world only for the rich and privileged. There, the laws and principles are different from a normal society.

Rather he is born as an orphan and has lived a life of being treated with contempt. He has no family or educational background. Although he seems like nothing much, he is relatable. Then, he meets a woman. She came to kill him but he falls in love with her. She brings out a real superhero in him. Then the miracles start to happen.

A drama about a man named Kim Ji Hyuk (Kang Ji Hwan), living a third-rated life gets involved in plan to save Kang Dong Suk (Choi Daniel), a rich family's only son who needs a heart transplant.
