Playing Ep 01

Summary:

In this emotionally charged drama, we follow the poignant tale of a man who's held onto a childhood memory of a radiant bride he once encountered. This bride, a vision of beauty on her special day, etched herself permanently into his young heart. Fast forward two decades, and fate intriguingly weaves its thread, bringing the pair together once more under dramatically different circumstances. Now, he nurtures the earth, tending to the cultivation of healing herbs, while she has navigated the complexities of marriage, becoming the spouse of a prominent figure in the world of medicinal commerce.

Their seemingly separate lives intersect after she uncovers a hidden truth that sends ripples through her existence; her husband has not only been unfaithful but has also set up a clandestine residence for his passionate escapades with his mistress. This revelation rocks her world, yet societal expectations and the weight of her family's honor compel her to suffer in silence, even after her husband's demise.

When the mistress becomes with child, thought to be sired by her late spouse, her sense of duty prevails over the betrayal. She brings the mistress into her home, offering shelter and considering her akin to a sister, a testament to her immense strength of character and benevolence.

But complexities deepen further as it's hinted that perhaps there is more to the narrative than what meets the eye. The protagonist's confidant is privy to truths untold, casting shadows of doubt and mystery. As the tale unfolds, entanglements of the past and present draw us into a web of deception, tradition, and the enduring search for love amidst the trials of life.
