Seo Tae-pyung finds his ordinary life upended when he abruptly transmigrates into Celestial Love, an Eastern imperial fantasy romance novel. Rather than reincarnating as an overpowered heroic conqueror, he awakens as the younger brother of the tragic female lead, burdened by an impoverished noble household and political turmoil. Fully aware of the catastrophic death flags awaiting secondary characters in royal melodramas, Tae-pyung formulates a strict survival protocol centered on keeping a low profile, avoiding the imperial palace, and steering clear of eccentric suitors.
Despite his best efforts to live a peaceful commoner life, his modern problem-solving abilities and practical diplomacy inadvertently capture the fascination of high-ranking royal ladies. From the calculating crown princess to imperial concubines and rival aristocratic maidens, the powerful heroines of the court begin competing for his undivided attention. Trapped in a swirling vortex of high-stakes harem politics and palace intrigues, the exhausted brother must use every ounce of cunning to survive the romantic warfare without losing his head.
