A Business Proposal

Kim Se-jeong, the daughter of a billionaire, is exhausted by the endless parade of arranged suitors her father selects. In desperation, she hires Kang Tae-moo, a low-level employee in her own company, to pose as her arrogant fiancé and scare away potential matches. Their contract is straightforward: he plays the role of the insufferable heir, she pays for the performance. However, when fabricated emotions begin to feel authentic and their business arrangement breaches the clauses of the heart, both discover that the most perilous proposal is to risk genuine love. The screenplay deftly walks the line between romantic comedy and social satire, examining how the personas we adopt for societal approval ultimately shape our true selves. It holds up a mirror to a generation accustomed to negotiating even matters of affection.
