Kang Min-ho (Jung Kyung-ho) is a cold-blooded corporate raider who takes no prisoners. He is a scoundrel investment banker for Gold Investment, seemingly the world's largest financial service firm. As a cynical, self-defensive, suspicious sociopath, he wears people down with his tenacity and takes advantage of them with his delusions of grandeur. However, Min-ho has his own story of how he became evil - it was because of his uncle's betrayal. His father was overthrown by his uncle and it caused his family to hit bottom. As Min-ho vows to get revenge, he meets Soon-jung (Kim So-yeon), the daughter of his father's former secretary who betrayed him and who now works for his uncle. One day, he has a heart attack and is taken to a hospital. He miraculously survives his heart attack after undergoing a heart transplant. His heart is actually from Dong-wook (Jin Goo), a young detective and Soon-jung's fiancé, who suffered from brain damage from a mysterious car accident. After receiving a new life thanks to the new heart, he is no longer the cold and callous person that he has been and undergoes a profound change to his personality, talking differently and warming up people. But he still pursues his plan to get revenge on his uncle even though his emotions get in the way at times. He gradually learns the meaning of happiness when he finds Soon-jung, whom he wants to cherish and protect. His heart becomes tender and his eyes swell with tears when he works with her. He falls in love with her without realizing it.
