Synopsis

Lee Yeon-seo (Shin Hye-sun) is a supremely talented and successful ballerina who can say anything that she wants with her family's Fantasia Ballet Company but suffers a devastating accident during acting on stage that leaves her blind. She is bitter and abusive towards her staff, including her loyal secretary and butler, her sly family, and everyone else. Dan (Kim Myung-soo) is an optimistic, carefree angel who is always getting into trouble. In order to return to heaven he is given the seemingly impossible mission of finding true love for Yeon-seo, but ends up falling for her himself.[2]
