The series is the third installment of the revenge trilogy by director Park Chan-hong and writer Kim Ji-woo, following Resurrection in 2005 and The Devil in 2007.
Han Yi-soo (Kim Nam-gil) loses his father and narrowly escapes death because of the owners of Gaya Hotel Group, the family of Jo Hae-woo (Son Ye-jin), his first love. A wealthy and influential Japanese businessman adopts him, and 12 years later he returns to Korea with a new identity as Japanese-Korean businessman Yoshimura Jun and carefully laid plans. Hae-woo, who believed that Yi-soo was dead, becomes a prosecutor to find out the truth about what happened to him. The two become caught between love and revenge.
This production marks Son Ye-jin's return to television three years after Personal Taste in 2010, and the first acting project for Kim Nam-gil since being discharged from mandatory military service. Regarding his revenge trilogy, director Park Chan-hong explained that the first part, Resurrection focused on the man seeking revenge; then part two The Devil included the victim of revenge in the story; and the last third took into account both the victim and perpetrator to the story structure.
