Serendipity's Embrace

S01E05: What is Love?

Hong-ju is forced to go on a fishing trip with Hu-young, Sang-pil, and Wook. Although it’s awkward for her, she tries to enjoy the trip. Hye-ji and Kyung-taek join later, and Hye-ji tells Hong-ju that she’s not dating Kyung-taek. Meanwhile, Hong-ju is told to work with Joon-ho in his studio for a month.

Overview

After 10 years in the US, Hu-young returns to Korea and meets his first love, Hong-ju, at a café by chance. Just as the window into which Peter Pan flew happened to be Wendy's room. Just as the prince happened to find Cinderella's glass shoes. As if nothing had changed in the past 10 years, Hu-young becomes clumsier only in front of Hong-ju. It’s like going back to the age of 19 when he met his first love, Hong-ju. Hu-young and Hong-ju’s days, which have faded a little, begin to turn into vivid rainbow colors again.
