Synopsis
Cheol-ho is a spinal cord injury patient who became paralyzed below the neck due to a sudden accident.His only guardian was his father, Seong-gyoo, until he died in cancer. Seong-gyoo, a wealthy man, foresaw that leaving his son with a large inheritance and no family would make him vulnerable to exploitation by unscrupulous individuals seeking money. To protect Cheol-ho, Seong-gyoo legally acknowledged Ji-eun as his daughter after thirty years of estrangement. Upon gaining legal recognition as his daughter, Ji-eun discovers that she has also been appointed as Cheol-ho's guardian. Even more shockingly, Ji-eun finds out that Seong-gyoo has tricked her into a financial trap that requires her to keep Cheol-ho alive for over 10 years if she wants to be eligible for any inheritance. If Cheol-ho dies before 10 years passes, Ji-eun would not be able to inherit anything-this is what Seong-gyoo's will says. One day, the family is visited by Kang-hee, a massage therapist born with visual impairment. She possesses a special skill known as echolocation. he learns that there are conspiracies building around his fortune and even worse, people who want to kill him. She finds out she is also part of the dangerous game.
