Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki: Nam Jae-Yeob (Bae Hyun-Sung) attends a prestigious private high school, whose students come from mostly wealthy families. Nam Jae-Yeob looks like a perfect model student with good looks and grades, but this is all a facade.
Kang Geon-Tae (Cha Kang-Yoon) is a scholarship student at the same high school. He comes from a low-income family. Kang Geon-Tae always places first academically at his high school. His immediate goal in life is to attend a prestigious university. He doesn’t have any friends at school except for Joo Hee-Dong (Park Yoon-Ho). In order to survive, Kang Geon-Tae makes a choice and that choice becomes his weakness. Meanwhile, Nam Jae-Yeob grasps Kang Geon-Tae’s weakness and blackmails him to take a university entrance exam on his behalf.
