Plot

[edit]

Broadcast journalist Shin-young (Park Jin-hee) is 34, and wants to find love, but it's hard to stay positive when she's faced with high workplace pressure and a string of failed relationships. Just when it seems like her chances may have passed, she meets a musician ten years her junior (Kim Bum), and her former fiancé (Lee Pil-mo) comes back to rekindle the flame. Korean-English translator Da-jung (Uhm Ji-won) desperately wants to get married within a year. She won't settle for anything less than the perfect man, but will that really result in the perfect marriage? Restaurant consultant Bu-ki (Wang Bit-na) is done with the marriage game. She broke off her engagement, studied overseas, and is satisfied on her own terms as an efficient, sophisticated woman.[5][6][7]
