The slated drama is based on the eponymous 2022 novel by Hwang Ui Geon. The source material charts the scandals surrounding high society and the nightlife scene. The narrative follows a chaebol heiress who lives a life of misfortune. She is an illegitimate child and finds herself embroiled with a star host at a secret club in the affluent and posh neighbourhood of Cheongdam-dong. Subsequently, the two unite to protect each other from looming threats and malice as they find true love.
For the drama, the makers approached Ahn Hyo Seop for the role of Cheon Gook (“Heaven” in Korean). He is a former taekwondo athlete and the top host of a secret club called “Si Bel Homme” (meaning “handsome man” in French). Flaunting his enviable height and athletic physique, Cheon Gook takes over the nightlife world after his stepmother disappears with his late father’s life insurance payout. This leaves him with a substantial sum of inherited debt.
Meanwhile, fans are already in a frenzy as they await to see the star in a chiselled physique. Moreover, his anticipated fluttering romance with the chaebol heiress has also contributed to the heightening excitement.
