Plot

Cha-kyung (Han Ye-ri) and Hyuk-geun (Lee Hee-joon) are lovers. Gi-ok (Lee Young-jin), Cha-kyung's long-time close friend, has loved Hyuk-geun since they first met, but has kept her feelings hidden for the sake of her friendship with Cha-kyung. When Cha-kyung unexpectedly passes away in a car accident, the lives of both Hyuk-geun and Gi-ok change.

Even after a year, Hyuk-geun can't accept reality or move on, living in a fantasy in which Cha-kyung is still alive. On the other hand, Gi-ok acts as if the wound is healed and starts trying to act on her feelings toward Hyuk-geun.
