The story starts with a fire incident and all the firemen who entered the building in the blaze were killed by the fire. The fire incident news report was focused on the story of Isaac Ki (Jung In-Gi), chief of the fire brigade sent his men in the blaze and caused them all to die and then he fled the scene as an error of his misjudgement as reported by the news reporter, Sophia Song (Jin Kyung).
This caused a chaotic situation for Marco Ki's (Nam Da-Reum) family and end up causing his mother to commit suicide with him and his brother ends up in jail over night due to Sophia's untruth story.

Fatefully, as he is growing up he meets with Sophia's ex-husband and daughter, Trina Choi (Park Shin-Hye) and takes on a new identity as Darren Choi (Lee Jong-Suk). Trina is someone with Pinocchio Syndrome hence she cannot lie.
