What is the show about?
After leaving her job, Yu Mi rises to the top as a successful writer, with her “Writer Cell” now leading her life while her “Love Cell” takes a back seat. But success soon starts to feel empty. Her routine becomes dull and predictable, and the excitement fades away. That changes when Sun Rok enters her life. Meeting someone younger than her brings a different kind of feeling, something unexpected that slowly begins to shake things up. Kim Yu Mi, once just an ordinary woman in her 30s, is now a well-known romance novelist. Even then, with no new goals to chase, her inner world feels quiet and lifeless. Sun Rok’s arrival changes that. Through him, Yu Mi realises that writing about love and actually experiencing it are very different things. Sun Rok, a calm and logical editor in his 20s at Julie Publishing, prefers a simple and quiet life. He keeps his distance at first when Yu Mi steps into his space. But over time, that distance fades, and he finds himself drawn to her in ways he did not expect.
