In an instant, their fates are connected -- and from this encounter unfolds a saga that spans half a century. In the aftermath, a young girl named Jade is sold to a courtesan school. When Jade befriends an orphan boy named JungHo, who scrapes together a living begging on the streets of Seoul, they form a deep friendship. As they come of age, JungHo is swept up in the fight for independence and Jade becomes a successful performer with a noble romantic prospect. Soon Jade must decide whether she will risk everything for the one who would do the same for her.
