The gloomy painter young master x Oriental slave, European overhead background.
Male protagonist: An artist suffering from lung disease, born into a noble family but gloomy and withdrawn. He has a deep obsession, hoping to paint the colors he wants and be recognized by the art world, but he fails to realize that he is born with a "curse".
Mistress: An oriental slave with black hair and eyes, submissive but hiding rebellion. She used her singing voice and skills to help the young master overcome many obstacles, but after discovering the secret of his "curse", she lost trust and missed the opportunity to save the young master.
They all said that Young Master Arthur of the Dymock family was handsome, but unfortunately he was a painting enthusiast. His paintings were worthless and no one would buy those dull charcoal doodles.
But the young master still had a soft spot for black and white compositions, and even bought an oriental slave with black hair and eyes as a model for inspiration, named Asang.
Through countless tracings, the young master's admiration for Asang turned into a persistent love, and he even made an exception to create a colorful oil painting for her - however, the curse-like bright red image and ominous composition made this painting known as "Devil's Egg" among art critics.
The old Viscount could not bear the thought of his son's reputation being ruined by an Eastern slave. So, they shouted "Kill the black-eyed devil" and dragged the bloody Ah Sang out of the mansion.
The young master's lung disease is getting worse day by day, but he keeps tracing the same painting over and over again, leaving only darkness and scarlet in the painting.
They all said that the young master's time was running out and he would never be able to escape the devil's curse.
On the last winter day when the lake was frozen, flames engulfed the studio and "Devil's Egg" disappeared.
Concept: The natural "curse" is destined to prevent the young master from achieving artistic success, and is destined to prevent him from protecting his lover - this is a Gothic love tragedy that transcends identity and race.
