In short, the father kidnaps his daughter's crush so they can get married. He refuses, and they part ways. Then her entire family is murdered. The sole survivor, while trying to escape her attackers, she falls off a cliff and loses her memory. By chance, her lover finds her and, to protect her, makes her believe they are siblings.
Willing to protect her even at the risk of his own life, he shows his care for her. At the same time, unaware of the feelings she harbored before the accident, she appreciates his closeness and appears at ease.
When a potential suitor presents himself, he finds it difficult to play the brotherly role because jealousy takes over.
Then she regains her memory and not only remembers the family's extermination, but also his rejection of the marriage. At that moment, their relationship change.

From episode 36 onward, I struggled to watch the series and took a break because the woman lead character was getting on my nerves.
In fact, resentful that he had rejected her a year earlier, she pushed him away and denied their love. Then she played detective to find out who was behind the deaths of her family, completely excluding him.
Thinking about how close he had been to her and how much he had done for her over the past year, I found her quite selfish and ungrateful.

In addition to the romantic interlude, there is the thriller part that forms the basis of the entire story.

The ending was a bit tight, but I liked it because all the issues were resolved, everyone received justice, the reforms were implemented, and last but not least, as the enterprising girl she has always been, she makes a symbolic gesture that recalls the past. I won't say more.
