The annual Winter Solstice Masquerade.
I've always wanted to go. To hide my identity behind a mask and pretend to be someone else for a night. To wear a gown I was utterly unworthy of, one so beautiful it challenged the stars in the sky.  To steal a dance from a dashing man and wonder if he was a prince, a commoner, or someone like me. When I was just a little girl I dreamed of attending the ball, and now that I was, I wondered how different my life would be if that was the real reason I was here. If I simply came to the ball to be swept away on the dance floor.
However, tonight I wouldn't be dancing with a prince. Because tonight, I'd buy my freedom--with his blood.

Ryu Seo-woo is an award-winning best vocalist who tragically died in a plane crash and transmigrated to a BL novel, "Serenade Me, My Angel" which he read out of boredom. He transmigrated into the body of the sub-villain, who shares his name but is a C-list singer with a ruined voice due to throat damage. Living in a decrepit house with his five-year-old triplet sons (Seo-jun, Seo-min, and Seo-jin) who despise him for years of neglect and abuse, Seo-woo is determined to rewrite their lives. The novel's main couple: the stoic CEO Moon Woo-seok and his innocent, angelic singer Jin Yu-jin are destined for a happy ending. In the original story, Seo-woo's character dies in a fire, leaving his genius triplets to be adopted by the main couple. However, the transmigrated Seo-woo has no intention of dying or letting the original plot play out. Can he win over his sons and forge a new path?
