It features the story of an heir (chaebol) who finds his dreams.
Kim Young Dae (Extraordinary You, Perfect Family) will take on the role. Fans have responded to the announcement with split votes.
Kim Young Dae's fans were pleased for his new leading role, but some others critiqued the work and said they were not satisfied with acting.

Additional critics mentioned annoyance at a perceived trend of pairing actors like Ra Mi Ran and Jo A Ram—both expected to 'carry' performances—with significantly younger male counterparts.
The K-drama community is rife with debate on an emerging scandal among fans over a supposed casting trend in the industry, and social media is ablaze with chatter about it.
