In a realm where demons exert their evil will over the mortals and cultivators, none is as powerful – nor as wicked – as the Demon Lord (Luo Yun Xi). But he was not always as evil as he is now. He was once a very different and more ordinary prince, albeit one who was born with the bone of evil. As such, demonic forces planned to suck him in and make him their most powerful weapon.

Some 500 years later, the powers of good hatch a plan. They plan to send a powerful woman back in time to find the prince – named Tan Tai Jin – in the Jin Kingdom. And this woman will take on the identity of his wife...and destroy him before he can transform into the monster he is now. A woman named Li Su Su (Bai Lu) accepts the mission. She goes back in time, taking on the role of the mortal woman Ye Xi Wu, the daughter of a great general – and the prince’s wife. But when she meets the prince, things get complicated. Romance blooms between them as the cycle of death and reincarnation begins to spin. Could love – and not violence – help save the world from evil?

Oh Ha Ra (Kang Sora) is a hotshot divorce lawyer whose nickname in legal circles is “the “goddess of litigation.” One of the reasons she is such a dab hand at divorce proceedings, perhaps, is the fact that she has divorced her long-time lover and fellow lawyer Goo Eun Beom (Jang Seung Jo). But her relatively uneventful life is turned upside down when she is unexpectedly reunited with her ex-husband – in the law courts!

The duo is forced to work together – leading them to butt heads and reignite past grievances. While their professionalism prevents them from telling each other what they really think in public, tempers begin to fray...and risk boiling over. The tense atmosphere is not relieved in the slightest by fellow divorce lawyers Kang Bi Chwi (Jo Eun Ji) and Kwon Si Wook (Lee Jae Won), another pair of advocates who always seem to get under one another’s skin! Will Cupid rescue this group of lawyers – or will chaos break loose in the courtroom?

History is littered with the tales of the nine-tailed fox, a legendary creature who seduces the innocent in order to satisfy their craving for human flesh. Though there are few in this modern age who believe in the ghost stories of the past, there are some, like Nam Ji Ah (Jo Bo Ah), who are convinced the legends of old are full of more facts than fiction. Determined to prove to the world that the monsters that lurk in urban myths and ancient legends are, in fact, real, Ji Ah has plied her talent as a television producer to create a show that does just that. With an iron will and nerves of steel, Ji Ah hunts down the weird, unusual, and sometimes dangerous subject matter to showcase on her program.

During one such pursuit, Ji Ah comes across Lee Yeon (Lee Dong Wook), an irresistibly handsome and incredibly intelligent man who is so well put together that he seems too good to be true. Convinced there’s more to this man than meets the eye, Ji Ah keeps a close watch on him, but the more she observes him, the more convinced she becomes that he’s just like every other man in the world, cold and heartless. If only she knew the truth!

A nine-tailed fox who has only recently settled in the city, Lee Yeon has wrecked more than a little havoc since his arrival, as he has a penchant for cleansing human spirits. Fully aware that Ji Ah is tracking him, he does little to arouse her suspicion; but when his blood-thirsty step-brother, Lee Rang (Kim Bum) shows up, things get a bit more complicated. Will Lee Yeon be able to save both himself and Ji Ah from the wrath of his vengeful brother?
