Synopsis
“Dam Yeon, the daughter of a fallen apothecary, has a secret.”
First, she entered into a three-year contract marriage with her husband, Deungwol—a fact that even he does not know.
Second, she has been secretly in love with Deungwol for a very long time.
Third… she is still in love with him even now.
Carrying these secrets that only she knows, Dam Yeon accepts a contract marriage with the Deung family in order to avoid being wed to a temperamental widower and to rebuild her family’s ruined apothecary.
However, as time passes, falsehood begins to turn into truth, formality becomes sincerity, and that sincerity eventually turns into pain…
“Even if they were forcibly bound together, it would never be the kind of fated union known as ‘Byeokhap (—a flawless harmony like two jade pieces fitting perfectly as one.”
If that is truly the case, then perhaps it is best to let go and stop holding on.
Original Title: (Byeokhap)
