Dan-bi, an aspiring children’s book author with a heart full of whimsical dreams, lands an unexpected job on a Youth Protection Team, tasked with cracking down on illicit online content. Her ambitions take a wild detour when a twist of fate binds her to a shady contract with Hwang, a charismatic titan of the web erotica industry. Forced to pen steamy stories under his command, Dan-bi grapples with a world far from her fairytale ideals, stumbling through the unfamiliar terrain of sensual prose. Yet, with the quiet support of Jung-seok, a jaded colleague navigating his own career crossroads, and sparks of inspiration from her friends’ colorful pasts, Dan-bi uncovers a surprising knack for storytelling that ignites her confidence. Forbidden Fairytale is a vibrant, heartfelt journey of self-discovery, blending sharp humor and unexpected warmth as Dan-bi learns to rewrite her own story in a world where dreams and reality collide.
