Baek Soo-Jung (played by Mun Ka-Young) is a powerhouse at Yongsung Department Store, leading the planning team with unmatched dedication. Known for her stellar performance and fearless attitude, she’s not one to stay silent—especially when something bothers her. She’s earned a reputation for standing her ground, no matter who she’s up against in the company.

Then, out of the blue, she crosses paths with Ban Joo-Yeon (played by Choi Hyun-Wook)—someone she hasn’t seen in 16 years. And it’s not just a casual reunion. He’s now her superior, taking on the role of Director of the Strategic Planning Division, and he’s also set to inherit the department store empire.

Their shared history goes all the way back to their teenage years. Back then, they met through an online game, where Ban Joo-Yeon went by the dramatic alias “Black Salt Dragon”—a name that perfectly captured his moody teenage persona. For Baek Soo-Jung, those gaming days bring back some of the most cringeworthy and unpleasant memories of her youth.

On the flip side, Ban Joo-Yeon remembers her as “Strawberry,” the charming girl he fell for during those virtual battles. She was his first love. But just as he mustered up the courage to confess his feelings, she rejected him—leaving a sting that stayed with him ever since.

Now, after all these years, fate throws them back together in the corporate world. Ban Joo-Yeon, once the heartbroken gamer boy, is now her boss. And Baek Soo-Jung, who once left him scarred, is working right under him. What happens when old wounds resurface in a high-stakes workplace? Sparks are bound to fly.
