Season 1:
Hyun Joo enjoys her happy single career woman’s life. After a water accident in childhood, she realizes that she got married to the same guy in her past three lives which in turn makes her decide not to marry at all in this life. One day, an unexpected event happens to her and it rocks her life upside down.
Hyun Joo gets acknowledged by her colleagues as a competent webtoon producer, but she gets a pink slip from the company due to a conspiracy organized by some webtoon artists. The CEO of Sunwoo Pharmaceuticals, Hwang Ji Woo, runs into Hyun Joo in an elevator, but he collapses due to an unexpected accident.
When Hyun Joo’s mom found out she was fired in her job, her mom insisted to make Hyun Joo go on blind dates. During the the blind date, Do Gyum interrupted and ruined the talk. Her mom got furious and threaten that she must pay back 50,000 dollars when another blind date will be ruined. Do Gyum left his company, and Hyun Joo got scouted in another company.
To all of the encounters, Do Gyum found it suspicious. Ji Woo just once met Hyeon Ju in the elevator, then later scouted her in his company, then appeared in the blind date.
Hyeon Ju hears rumors that Ji Woo might be gay and becomes worried when Do Gyum and Ji Woo decide to become roommates. Hyeon Ju’s friends suggest that Do Gyum might also have feelings for Ji Woo, which makes her even more confused as to what she should do. Meanwhile, Do Gyum’s suspicions about Ji Woo continues to grow.
Concerned that Ji Woo might misconstrue his intention for moving in, Do Gyum blurts out that he and Hyeon Ju are dating. Hyeon Ju is baffled that Do Gyum chose her of all people to pretend to date. Meanwhile, Hyeon Ju and Do Gyum go to Mount Hambaek to do research for Do Gyum’s new webtoon. When the rain starts pouring down, Ji Woo chases after them.
Hyeon Ju hands in her resignation letter, but finding a new job doesn't go as smoothly as she planned. After a futile job search, she decides to use Ji Woo for her success. Ji Woo agrees to all of her demands for the Webtoon Business Team and keeps trying to apologize. Meanwhile, Do Gyum takes Hyeon Ju to a special place on their date.
Despite her intention to use him, Hyeon Ju finds herself feeling concerned and taking care of Ji Woo. When Ji Woo gets drunk at a team dinner, Hyeon Ju brings him home. Do Gyum doesn’t understand Hyeon Ju’s actions since she supposedly doesn’t like Ji Woo. Do Gyum gets jealous as he watches Hyeon Ju continuing to care for Ji Woo.
Hyeon Ju is flustered after hearing how Do Gyum feels about her. Meanwhile, Do Gyum gets called over by Hyeon Ju's parents who are curious to know about their relationship status. Just as Do Gyum tells Hyeon Ju’s parents that his feelings for Hyeon Ju are one-sided, Hyeon Ju comes over unannounced.
Someone posts about seeing Hyeon Ju and Ji Woo after their team dinner on an anonymous online forum. Rumors start to spread online about Hyeon Ju and Ji Woo's supposed relationship. Meanwhile, the Webtoon Business Team goes on its first workshop. Despite Hyeon Ju’s refusal, Ji Woo insists that he join in on the workshop.
Do Gyum becomes furious after reading Ji Woo's wish and causes a scene at the workshop. Meanwhile, Hyeon Ju's attention keeps wandering to Ji Woo's lips, because she thinks her visions are related to anything resembling a kiss with him.

As the Webtoon Business Team returns to daily life at the office after the workshop, Hyeon Ju just seems to get busier and busier.

When Do Gyum hears the news, he rushes to the hospital and tells Ji Woo to leave. Do Gyum and Ji Woo try all means to stay next to Hyeon Ju. Meanwhile, Chairwoman Kim sees Ji Woo and Hyeon Ju together at the hospital.
Hyeon Ju gets back to work as soon as she gets discharged from the hospital. As she feels grateful toward Ji Woo for taking good care of her, she decides to keep the promise and grant Ji Woo’s wish. Later, they meet at Han Seo Hotel, and Ji Woo suggests something to Hyeon Ju.
Chairwoman Kim starts digging deep into Hyeon-ju, and she even visits the grave of Song Min Ju. Ji Woo finds out that Chairwoman Kim has visited the memorial park where Min Ju is buried and finds her suspicious. Meanwhile, Young Soon calls Ji Woo out to treat him to a meal.
Hyeon Ju meets Chairwoman Kim after getting a call from her. She tells Hyeon Ju to be careful of Ji Woo. Hyeon Ju gets the hypnotherapy that Ji Woo recommended and feels much at ease afterward. Meanwhile, the wedding anniversary party for Hyeon Ju’s parents is held, where Hyeon Ju makes a shocking statement.

Chairwoman Kim accuses Hyeon Ju of embezzling the company funds in a board meeting, and Hyeon Ju is put in a predicament. Right then, Ji Woo comes forward and tells everyone that he’ll take full responsibility for it.
Ji Woo holds an extraordinary general meeting where he announces that he’ll resign from his position. Amid the shock, Hyeon Ju tells Ji Woo to let her take care of everything, but Ji Woo tells her that he wants everything to stop and that he’s too tired to go on.
