Love at first sight is such a wonderful idea. However, how many of us have experienced it in real life? The answer is "rarely". If anything, we have mostly seen those occurrences in dramas.

Therefore, this drama plans to show the viewers something more relatable - love that blooms in our everyday lives. This drama shows how a familiar relationship turns into a fluttering relationship, how a friendship suddenly turns into love, and how a once dull life suddenly becomes blinding due to love. This drama is about a man and a woman who have nothing more to share thanks to their completely different personalities. However, they have no idea whom they are in love with.
