Left to manage his family's assets by his parents who are abroad for business, Ho-jae has all the necessities to live a life of ease and comfort.

However, his relationships with women are a far cry from genuine connections. He seems to be using his status and wealth to manipulate them into his bed, without any real emotional investment.
