Set during the Joseon dynasty, the series details the story of Ok-nyeo (Jin Se-yeon), a girl who was born and raised in prison, and her adventures with the mysterious Yun Tae-won (Go Soo). She later becomes an advocate for the poor and is unfairly accused through the Waeji-bu, the private litigation system in Joseon.
Lim Kkeok-jeong and Hwang Jin-yi were only mentioned, but they were not helping roles, and there was no appearance of Dae Jang Geum. Rather, it was Yoon Tae-won, Sung Ji-heon, and Myeongjong who helped the most.[11]
