The Mafia King's Substitute Bride

About this drama

Eight hundred twenty-four characters, and the copy builds a substitution romance with the swap forced from both sides. Chloe was originally the fiancée of Dante, the king of the mafia, and she fled on their wedding day out of horror at the terrifying rumors circulating about him. The vacancy is filled by coercion. Her vicious stepfather threatens to pull the plug on their adoptive mother's ventilator, forcing Lily, the younger sister, to take her older sister's place and marry Dante. Forced into a wedding dress, Lily completes the whole ceremony overwhelmed by fear. The listing then runs its central irony: Dante soon finds this bride nothing like the arrogant and domineering woman the rumors described, since Lily is kind, pure, and brave, even daring to stand in front of Dante's gun to protect a maid. The copy stages that gun-shield moment as the emblem of the difference, courage in the place where the genre expects terror. The development is given as a double movement. Dante is gradually moved by Lily's sincerity and begins to doubt her real identity, and he realizes he has already fallen irredeemably in love with this substitute bride. The description stops there, at the recognition without its consequence, so what the doubt leads to, whether the sister returns, and how the substitution resolves are all outside the text. Thirty episodes, complete, 1,800 views. The catalogue confirms the count. The setup and the falling are fully stated; the resolution is the show's to stage.
