Synopsis

Shin Joo-yeon is a 33-year-old fashion marketing director at a home shopping channel company. She's developed a tough prickly outer shell in order to succeed in the workplace, and has almost given up on the idea of true love after countless failures in the relationship department. She becomes involved in a love triangle with two very different men.
Joo Wan is a 26-year-old songwriter and carefree spirit who returns to Korea after seventeen years living abroad. Up until the age of 9, he was practically raised by his mom's friend and her daughter, Shin Joo-yeon. She only remembers him as a kid she was forced to play with him when her mom was busy, while all his early memories from bath time, to play time, to learning how to tie his shoe, include her. Upon meeting again, he aims to heal Joo-yeon's jaded sense of romance.
Kang Tae-yoon is Joo-yeon's senior colleague and mentor, a workaholic perfectionist who does whatever it takes to meet his goals. He's smooth and refined, but inwardly he doesn't really believe in love after getting his heart broken by his last girlfriend.
Oh Se-ryung is a model-turned-stylist who is Joo-yeon's constant rival at work. She's uninhibited, honest, and always true to her emotions. Though Se-ryung has a line of guys waiting to date her since her school days, Tae-yoon is the only man she's genuinely fallen for, and she'll do anything to get him back.
Lee Min-jung, Jung Hee-jae and Lee Woo-young are Joo-yeon's best friends and office mates. Min-jung prefers casual, no-strings-attached hook-ups, so she's thrown for a loop when her usual sex partner Ahn Min-seok unknowingly moves into the apartment next door and she finds out that she's pregnant with his child. Hee-jae's longtime boyfriend is studying for the civil service exam, but her scrimping and saving for their future is beginning to take its toll on their relationship. Despite being the only male in their circle of friends, Woo-young is considered one of the girls since he was raised by a strong-willed mother and several older sisters; he's always there for Hee-jae and tries to get her to try new things and loosen up.
