Plot

Yoon-Seo (Han Suk-Kyu) is a renown writer who comes from a wealthy family. One day, he comes across an infamous "erotic" story that inspires him to write in the same genre. Yoon-Seo takes up a pen name and writes his first erotic novel, which becomes a hit. Especially so with the housewives. For his second novel, Yoon-Seo enlists the help of the local police chief Gwang-Heon (Lee Beom-Soo) to illustrate his stories, but Gwang-Heon lacks the experience and imagination to draw the illustrations. Yoon-Seo soon manipulates Queen Jung-Bin (Kim Min-Jung) into their forbidden quest, which quickly backfires ....
