My wife is undoubtedly a goddess, but she is overly virtuous.

I am helpless with my wife. She is clearly a queen in the music industry, but she only enjoys buying groceries and cooking for me. She is the beloved national goddess, yet she only wants to be a virtuous wife and mother. Her fans send me razor blades every day, blaming me for holding her back, but I never wanted this either! Who knew that having such a dutiful wife could also be a burden? And to think, all this happy trouble started from that night when I sat on the rooftop and sang a song called "On the Rooftop".... This is a story of a national goddess pursuing a down-to-earth man, facing obstacles and overcoming challenges, ultimately succeeding in reversing their roles. (No ill intentions, a bit of twists and turns in the beginning, but full of sweetness later on.)
