Lee Yeon Jae works at travel agency Line Tour as an under appreciated assistant. She's often tasked to do menial jobs by her boss, but she never refuses out of fear of being fired. Lee Yeon Jae supports her mother and without her job believes she will not be able to get married. One day, because of a car accident, Lee Yeon Jae goes to the hospital. There she meets Dr. Chae Eun Suk. As children, Yeon Jae and Eun Suk were friends, but Eun Suk now acts as if he does not know her. Dr. Eun Suk informs Yeon Jae that she has a tumor and needs another examination. Yeon Jae goes back to the company and asks for a day off to get the medical examination. Instead of getting the day off, Yeon Jae is assigned to be a guide for high profile client Andy Wilson. Kang Ji Wook is the only son of Line Tour's company president. He is good looking, physically fit, rich and the successor to the company, but he isn't excited by anything. His father planned his marriage to Im Se Kyung, the daughter of conglomerate Seo Jin.
