They have been enemies since ancient times, and this hatred has only intensified until a tragedy occurs. At a ball, Romeo, the son of the Montague family, accidentally meets Juliet, the daughter of the Capulet family, and falls in love at first sight. However, the long-standing hatred between the two families does not allow them to be together. Romeo cannot endure the torment of longing and comes to Juliet's window at night. Perhaps fate has its way, Juliet is also standing by the window, thinking of her beloved. At this moment, the power of hatred can no longer separate the two hearts that are tightly bound by love. They secretly marry in the church. But the fierce love also leads to a fate that is bound to be uncontrollable.
