Synopsis
After getting into a paragliding accident, South Korean heiress Yoon Se Ri crash lands in North Korea. There, she meets North Korean army officer Ri Jung Hyuk, who agrees to help her return to South Korea. Despite the tension between their countries, the two of them start falling for one another.
A subplot follows Goo Seung Joon, a fraudster seeking refuge in the North, and Seo Dan, a musician and Jung Hyuk's fiancée.
THE CAST
CHARACTERS SUMMARY
MAIN CHARACTERS
A captain in the Korean People's Army serving in the DMZ and the head of Company Five, and the youngest son of the Director of the General Political Bureau. A gifted pianist who studied in Switzerland before his military service, he gave up music after his older brother's mysterious death. Regulations demand Se Ri's execution; he hides and protects her instead.
A third-generation heiress and the illegitimate daughter of the chairman of Queens Group, who built a successful fashion brand and was named his successor. A tornado sweeps her across the border while she is paragliding. A steely pragmatist at first, she softens over her time in the North.
A musician, and Jung Hyuk's fiancée.
A British-Korean businessman and Se Ri's former fiancé — charming, persuasive and unscrupulous. He embezzles a fortune from her brother and flees to North Korea to evade the police and Interpol.
