Plot
Gu Seo-jin is a third-generation chaebol who runs the theme park Wonder Land. He seemingly has everything — looks, brains, and fortune. But a traumatic incident in his childhood resulted in Seo-jin having a split personality — unlike his usual cold, ruthless and reclusive self, the other personality is the polar opposite, sweet and gentle Robin. Because of this, Seo-jin vows never to date or marry.
Seo-jin wants to get rid of the circus show at Wonder Land due to low ticket sales and high overhead costs, but he butts heads with circus master Jang Ha-na. Ha-na vows to save the failing circus and dreams of revamping it back to its former glory. She soon finds herself falling for Robin.
