Although she led a sheltered life within the temple walls, one day she happened to see some gisaengs in the marketplace. Wanting to learn how to dance, she goes to a gisaeng’s house, where she meets her mother for the first time. Jiny shows outstanding talent for playing the geomungo (a traditional Korean instrument) and for dancing. Meanwhile, she falls in love with Eunho, who is from a powerful noble family.
