Hwasa is an independent state located in the northwest of Thailand near the Mekong River. Seeking to open the country and make it known worldwide, the government holds an auction to find a company to produce a documentary film to promote the country. Nai (Chakrit Yamnam), the company owner, and Gigi (Kanokchat Manyaton), his girlfriend from GNN, a famous documentary production company in Thailand, participate in this auction. Nai's company has a secret weapon superior to its competitors: Naewna (Chantavit Dhanasevi), a talented creative director who happens to be Nai's younger brother.
All three are impressed and admire the beauty of Hwasa very much, especially when witnessing the royal ceremony celebrating the harvest. King Thul (Polwat Manuprasert) brings Princess Lolita (Ungsumalynn Sirapatsakmetha), the beautiful, innocent, and cheerful crown princess, to visit the people. Nai and Gigi are charmed by Princess Lolita's loveliness and brightness. However, Naewna is shocked because Princess Lolita is the same person he argued with at the market earlier that afternoon, simply because he snatched the last piece of dessert from her, making her very angry with him.
After Nai's company is entrusted with producing the promotional documentary for Hwasa, Naewna proposes a semi-reality travel documentary concept. Princess Lolita would be like an ambassador of Hwasa. Naewna plans to tell the story through a young adventurer who hears about the beauty of the Princess of Hwasa, travels to the country, encounters its beautiful nature, learns the culture and way of life of the Hwasa people, and finally decides to live there forever. Naewna intends to play the role of the adventurer himself.
However, Princess Lolita disagrees because she doesn't want to work with Naewna, the man she dislikes. She suggests that Gigi contact Patai (Son Songpaisan), a hot Thai drama actor she is crazy about, to be the adventurer character. Only then will she cooperate. Gigi and Nai immediately agree, making Naewna unhappy and wanting to quit the project. In the past, he and Patai were university seniors and juniors who were rivals, constantly competing, especially in love. Naewna was heartbroken when Khing (Keerati Mahapreukpong), the beautiful girl he liked, chose to date Patai instead.
This makes Naewna hate Patai even more. However, he is forced to continue with the project because Nai and Gigi have a severe argument. Gigi breaks up with Nai, threatens to withdraw all her shares from the company, and announces she will contact Patai to work with her before Nai and Naewna can. Meanwhile, Patai is bored with life in the entertainment industry because P' Fin (Piya Sawetpikul), his personal manager, double-books jobs, causing everyone to misunderstand Patai as a demanding, stingy superstar. Therefore, Patai decides to work with Naewna to teach P' Fin a lesson and escape the chaos of the Thai entertainment industry.
After the three arrive in Hwasa, they are shocked to find that Gigi has persuaded the Princess to reconsider the plot. She suggests Princess Lolita be the sole lead. While the Princess considers Gigi's proposal, Nai and Naewna come up with a brilliant plan: they must make the Princess truly fall in love with Patai. To achieve this, Naewna has to tutor Patai intensively to act like the character in his drama, which matches Princess Lolita's ideal type. The drama role is very different from Patai's real personality. Naewna has to get close to Chiffon (Wichayanee Pearklin), Princess Lolita's nanny, to trick her into revealing information about the Princess. Chiffon falls for it and agrees to cooperate. When Lolita sees Naewna flirting with Chiffon, she is angry, but since Chiffon falls deeply in love with Naewna, the Princess doesn't dare hurt her nanny's feelings.
When Patai learns which drama character Princess Lolita likes, he is shocked because it was his worst performance. However, he follows Naewna's advice because he genuinely starts falling for Princess Lolita. No matter how Gigi and Fin try to threaten him, Patai doesn't listen because without Naewna, he wouldn't know how to act to make an optimistic girl like Princess Lolita truly like him.
After filming proceeds smoothly, the unexpected happens. Khing travels to Hwasa to serve as Patai's personal stylist. This is actually Gigi's plan to cause a rift between Patai and Naewna. It succeeds when they fight, but it's a fight where both push the other to take Khing. When Nai finds out, he begs Naewna to court Khing to pull her away from Patai, who is doing well with the Princess. Wanting the work to go smoothly, Naewna agrees to Nai's proposal but is miserable because he realizes the person he loves is not Khing, but Princess Lolita.
Khing becomes the issue that breaks Chiffon's heart and makes Princess Lolita furious. She thinks Naewna is a playboy deceiving Chiffon. She constantly argues with Naewna. Patai has to step in to reconcile everyone because he fears that if the Princess gets too angry to work, they will be separated. Patai goes as far as begging Khing to pretend to be a "Tom" (tomboy) so Chiffon won't be heartbroken, and then fixes the relationship between Naewna and Chiffon to please Princess Lolita. Seeing Patai sacrifice for others surprises Khing, as in the past, he only thought of himself. Khing agrees to pretend to be a tomboy and tells the Princess and Chiffon that she and Naewna are just friends. Once Chiffon is happy again, Princess Lolita is nice to Naewna and suggests he marry Chiffon. This hurts Naewna deeply, so he avoids the Princess, letting Khing and Nai work in his place while he escapes to calm down outside the city.
Without Naewna, Patai doesn't know how to act and says everything wrong to Lolita. Eventually, Princess Lolita realizes that Patai's "perfect man" persona came from Naewna's guidance. Patai consults Khing about his relationship with the Princess. After Khing gives him advice, he realizes that the person he truly loves and who understands him best is Khing. Seeing things getting complicated, Patai reconciles with Naewna, admitting he knows his own heart and doesn't love Princess Lolita. Naewna understands and agrees to return to filming.
Just as filming resumes smoothly, Prince Jean-Paul (Akarat Nimitchai), Princess Lolita's prospective fiancé, arrives to cause trouble. Prince Jean-Paul executes a major plan to make Naewna and Patai fall out again, also changing how Princess Lolita and Khing view them.
What is Prince Jean-Paul's plan? And how will the love stories between Naewna and Princess Lolita, and Patai and Khing, conclude?
