Red Sleeve actor Lee Se-young will play Park Yeon-woo, a Josean Era lady whose spouse dies on the first day of their marriage. When someone threw her into a well, the former would not even have time to grieve his demise. Park Yeon-woo would soon find herself in 2023 South Korea, where everything was foreign and strange to her senses.

However, things will take a dramatic change when Park Yeon-woo falls for Kang Tae-ha, who mimics her late spouse, and her plan to return to Joseon is jeopardized. Fans are looking forward to seeing how the pair will portray themselves in The Story of Park’s Contract Marriage.
