Seo Jun Gyeong is a successful OBGYN who runs a practice with her best friend. But, although her professional life looks perfect and put together, her personal life is complicated and dysfunctional. Her family’s struggles revolve around an accident that happened seven years ago, causing their mother to lose one of her legs. Jun Gyeong feels responsible for the accident, since their mother was on her way to see Jun Gyeong when it happened. And her mother’s anger and resentment toward the world after the accident only make Jun Gyeong’s guilt worse.

But when her mother suddenly passes away, the whole family is left struggling between grief and relief. In the midst of this turmoil, Jun Gyeong meets a handsome neighbor who she is attracted to, even though he is not all like her ideal type. And the more she gets to know him, the more conflicted she feels. But as she begins to heal from her loss, Jun Gyeong begins to learn the value of living life to the fullest and embracing happiness over expectations.

Seo Jun Gyeong is emotionally guarded and cautious. She has channeled all her energy into professional success so that she can avoid difficult personal relationships. But meeting Do Hyeon will help her to break down some of those walls and learn to be vulnerable. Seo Hyun Jin  is great in these emotionally complex roles. She has a quiet grace that can easily seem distant and cold. But she also connects well to deep emotion and can portray those feelings to the audience. I thought she was a perfect fit for this role.

Ju Do Hyeon is a musician who writes music for commercial purposes. His erratic working hours give him an unconventional life style, which can make him seem lazy or professionally unsuccessful. Do Hyeon notices Jun Gyeong in his neighborhood and finally gets the nerve to approach her. He sees her sadness and lonliness, and it makes him feel a connection to her. And as they spend time together, he will continue to fall for her.

But Ju Do Hyeon has a secret that he doesn’t like to share. He has a son with an ex-girlfriend. Although they are not still together as a couple, Do Hyeon is eager to be a father to his son. And when his son, Daniel, comes to stay with Do Hyeon, Do Hyeon will be pulled between his jealous son and the woman he has come to love.

Ju Do Hyeon has been hurt in the past, and this has made him nervous about romantic relationships. He also knows that being a single dad is seen as a flaw by many. Because of this, Do Hyeon doesn’t often share how he is really feeling, and this will be a constant cause of friction between he and Jun Gyeong.  I’m not very familiar with Chang Ryul’s past works, so I was surprised by how much I enjoyed his performance in this drama. I loved his calm stability and the warmth he portrayed. I hope to see him as the leading man in more dramas to come.

Seo Jin Ho is Jun Gyeong’s father. He spent the last seven years as the caretaker for their mother, who lost a leg in an accident. But following her death, Jin Ho is lonely and aimless, until he meets Ja Yeong, who is the tour guide on his trip to Jeju. And slowly, he will give himself permission to live the rest of his life to the fullest, as his wife would have wanted.

Seo Jun Seo is Jun Gyeong’s younger brother. He is a graduate student who is studying to become a lecturer. But he is drifting through his life without really knowing what he wants. When his best friend finally confesses her feelings to him, he suddenly begins to gain confidence. And with her by his side, his life starts to find meaning and purpose.

Jin Ja Yeong is a tour guide who meets Jin Ho when he takes the trip that would have been his anniversary present to his wife. As a widow herself, she understands his pain better than anyone, and the pair bond as she helps him find healing.
