2. Character Summary

Namgoong Ho (Seo Kang-joon, 35 years old) - Assistant Manager at Hunmin Confectionery, he has incredible social skills and can become friends with anyone in just 10 minutes. Contrary to appearances, he had nearly seven stepfathers and spent a turbulent childhood under a flamboyant mother with a criminal record for fraud, but it was his girlfriend of 10 years, Im Mi-do, who helped him endure it.

In an interview, Seo Kang-joon introduced Namgoong Ho as "a character who is delicate and affectionate, yet possesses a solid inner coolness," citing "sacrifice" as the keyword that runs through the character. The fact that he works and saves money entirely for his future with Mi-do makes him the epitome of a romantic idealist.😭

Lee Mi-do (Ahn Eun-jin, 35 years old) - A film director. He was a promising newcomer who dominated international short film festivals with his college graduation project, but now he is a character who has hit rock bottom as every project falls through. He is most comfortable with Namgung Ho, whom he met at age 7 and became lovers with at age 26, but his heart begins to waver because of Han Tae-seung, who appears one day.

Han Tae-seung (Lee Ju-an, 32 years old) - A lawyer at Jaegang Law Firm. He is a character who was once the managing partner's loyal dog but comes to desire Imido's trust and affection.

Park Su-a (Jo A-ram, 27 years old) - A new employee at Hunmin Confectionery. A man of principle, he clashes with Namgung Ho at every turn.

3. Relationships as Seen Through Character Relationship Charts

Namgung Ho ↔ Lee Mi-do Met at age 7, started dating at 26, a couple of 10 years 💑

Han Tae-seung → Lee Mi-do : Feelings changed from annoyance → interest → "I want it," recognizing Namgung Ho as a rival
