In this 12-part drama, Lee Jeong-eun (Kim Sung-ryung), an Olympic gold medalist who was appointed as the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism, goes through a week of her political commentator husband Kim Sung-nam's (Bek Hyunjin) kidnapping.

Director Yoon Seong-ho will direct the drama, while creator Creative Group Songpyeon and new writers will be in charge of the screenplay.

In addition to Kim Sung-ryung and Bek Hyunjin, Bae Hae-sun, Lee Hak-joo, Jung Seung-gil, Lee Chae-eun and Heo Jung-do make up the cast.
