On a special day when it is said that spirits come to visit the living, eighteen year-old Kim Yoon-Yi gets sent into the past. Year 1452 is a year of turmoil. At the Joseon court the King, a Prince and Ministers battle for power. Neither wants to give in, using whatever means possible to best each other. There is nothing one wouldn't be willing to do when a single wrong step can mean either great success or swift demise. While young Yoon-Yi learns to adapt and survive in this new and dangerous environment, she finds a bond that is stronger than time itself: love. For her it was a first love born in the past, for him it is something he cherishes in the present. But what about the future?

As Kim Jong-Seo stopped speaking, Yoon-Yi felt a small tremor coursing through her body. For a moment she felt scared. Was he going to withdraw his approval? Was he going to say that they couldn't be together?
This very thought made Yoon-Yi's heart sink and she held her breath. Kim Jong-Seo's next words, though, gave her sublime happiness.
"Shin came to me a while ago and told me he would like to marry you. Of course, I gave him my permission immediately. I saw no reason to delay such a happy event. However, he said he wanted to wait until after his military examination results came out."
Without realizing, Yoon-Yi let out the breath she had been holding. So that was it. It wasn't the fact that she was not allowed to be with him, but that she had to wait a little longer. Her face broke into a beaming smile and she bowed her head.
"That is nothing, uncle. I can wait."
