OH In-sook, who goes by Giselle in the art world, is a failed artist with no fame. During her shift at her part time job, she meets a cunning and canny art sales representative Jae-bum.

He and his colleague James begin to raise the value of Giselle’s paintings with their ingenious sales efforts, with Giselle gaining immense fame. As she is ready to bathe in her success, she unexpectedly dies with an unknown reason, creating a huge shock to the art community. Jae-bum sees this as an opportunity to hike the prices on his deceased client’s paintings and goes all-in.
