Plot
editThis series tell about a love story about people who just aren't that interesting, what real-life romance actually the only person to have ever gone through a forced love story.
One day, you fell from the sky.
I never knew loving somebody could bring so much happiness.
I see the world differently because of you.
I am a different person because you live in my heart.

Dan-Woo (played by Danwoo Jung) is a man in his mid-thirties who's been bumming most of his life around the international acting circuit and career path which is far less interesting than it sounds. He's never even had a serious girlfriend, but that changes when he meets Elisabeth (played by Elisabeth Garcia), a French writer.
Danwoo likes communicating with someone who doesn't make him feel like an idiot, while Elisabeth likes the attention. This is the entire basis of their relationship. However, they later break-up hardly after told Danwoo's flashback, as his current-day relationship with Ha-Na (played by Park Ha-na). Neither Elisabeth nor Ha-Na particularly wants to hurt Dan-woo's feelings, but it's only the latter woman who recognizes that Danwoo's long term needs sometimes necessitate her saying things he doesn't want to hear.
This is a sweet and moving story about people who try to use romance to escape loneliness, only to realize that an absence of loneliness isn't the same thing as happiness. Even a break-up isn't the end of the world, Danwoo did manage to meet Ha-Na after all. Even if this was less because Elisabeth taught him how to love as it was because Danwoo had the sense not to attempt that same mistake again.[4]
