A historically based, erotic comedy from the writer of Untold Scandal sees Bang-ja, a servant of the noble man Mong-lyong, fall in love with a woman named
Choon-hyang. The problem is Mong-lyong also falls in love with her and orders
Bang-ja to arrange an encounter between them.
With both the Master and the Servant after the same woman, Bang-ja seeks out
the advice of his elderly roommate Ma who teaches him the art of seduction.
Bang-ja does win over Choon-hyang but with one condition: he is to help her
marry Mong-lyong. A cute but cheeky comedy about sexual courtship and a
prevalent narrative transcends the historical setting.
