She could have anything she desired with her vast money, except Tae-yang, the son of her maid. Tae-yang was always there for her, sometimes as an elder brother, sometimes as a teacher, helping her through life. Her obsession for Tae-yang becomes dangerous as she is willing to do crazy things for him. After Ae-ra killed her sister and frames Jung Gyeol's father, Se-rin goes berserk and tries to kill Jung Gyeol's family. Se-rin plotted evil schemes against the latter but failed. After the accident of Tae-yang, she blames Jung Gyeol for her misfortunes and tries to kill her at the hospital. Se-rin's wicked plan backfires at her and switched souls with her.

The main protagonist and villain (when Se-rin inhabited her body) of the story. She managed to remain caring and hopeful despite her poor financial position. She was, however, rapidly worn out, largely as a result of her husband and his family. Her husband's behavior abruptly altered after their honeymoon, and his family started to neglect her. She was able to put up with it because her father-in-law, Man-joong, and the chairman of the YJ Group liked her. She was unaware that her friend Ae-ra and her husband were having an illicit relationship, though. In order to get her to spend private time with her spouse, Yu-jin, Ae-ra exchanged her birth control pills for her respiratory medication and gave her a drugged tea. But something strange took place. After consuming the poisoned tea, Jung Gyeol had visual loss due to drowsy driving. In addition, Ae-ra accused Jung Gyeol's father of murder after learning of her pregnancy.
