Ka Seop was an orphan girl and grew up with the circus. Instead of being treated as family, she was sold by the circus leader to an elderly government official as concubine. When she became pregnant, she was rescued by Ah Saeng, a member of the circus and the two ran away. Unfortunately, she was hunted down by other circus members on the order of Lady Jeong who feared that Ka Seop's pregnancy would be the downfall of herself and her disfigured daughter. Ka Seop was burned alive and her spirit sought out those who did her wrong.
