Storyline

Cha Jin-wook (Sung Hoon) is a chaebol (meaning a large family-owned business conglomerate) and director of a company. Lee Yoo-mi (Song Ji-eun) works as a Nutritionist at Jin-wook's company cafeteria. She is an insecure lady due to her mother's job nature in the entertainment industry.

Both leads met three years ago at a resort and spent the night together. Yoo-mi left without a word after that. Jin-wook could not forget Yoo-mi and became a workaholic. When Yoo-mi started working at his company, he vowed revenge but in fact was looking to rekindle their love.

Jin-wook mistook Yoo-mi's three years old half-brother as her son. Though the misunderstanding was cleared later, this issue estranged their relationship badly. So much so that Yoo-mi decided to leave Jin-wook for good.

By overcaming multiple obstacles, the couple finally ended up together.

My View

Sung Hoon is too handsome. He doesn't need to do anything, just smirk and all girls will melt. Ji-eun is a sweet girl too and the chemistry between both leads is pretty amazing.

I remembered a quote from one of the episodes. "One plus one equals to two, but when two minus one, it does not equals to one anymore". That feel is still in my mind sometimes.

I'm surprised to see a romance drama distributed by OCN channel. As OCN targets mostly on thrillers and crimes.

Rating

5/5 Stars
