Jung Eun’s friend Yoo Kyung, however, is jealous of their relationship.
At the age of 25, Jung Eun works as a part-time actress while waiting for her mother to find her.
On the other hand, Yoo Kyung struggles for her debut as a film director and meets producer Young Jo.

tank you
very poor SJE, very pure person, but her best friend always take advantage
Enjoyed initially, but after episode 14, find it quite rediculous for a person so naive as be used again & again by a friend.
The story is quite intriguing except I’m not use to KMJ big eyes & pouty lip. Just my opinion.
I will definitely watch this drama. I am so glad that Han Hye Jin got the role. I am so happy that she has a new drama. I know that this drama will become very successful. I know that this drama will carry many awards. I am sure that Hye Jin unni will have an award to this drama. If this drama will be available in the market, I will surely buy it without second thought. Because I really really love the dramas of Hye Jin unni.
Keep up the good work unni! Aja! Fighting! Saranghaeyo unni!
Frumoasa poveste, am vazut primele doua episoade cu subtitrare in engleza si mi-au placut tare mult.Astept cu nerabdare ep 3. Succes!!!!!!!!!!!!
Finally Joo Sang Wook got leading man role. Hes underrated but he don’t have a big star charisma, though.
I really love the story and also the lead casts ! I really ? it ! Can’t wait for this ! =)
