Synopsis :
Lee Eun Jae and Yeon Hyung Woo fell in love at first sight without knowing that the other was a divorce lawyer. They had met at a baseball game, ended up getting caught by the cameras, and kissed in front of Korea through the JumboTron. But as all whirlwind marriages go, the spark fizzled quickly as they realized that both had very different personalities. Hyung Woo is neat, while Eun Jae is messy; Hyung Woo is willing to take on cases pro bono, while Eun Jae worries constantly about the cash flow for the company.

When their married friends also come running to them wanting a divorce, Eun Jae and Hyung Woo seriously wonder if that's a solution for their problems as well. Hyung Woo then lends his best friend Go Ki Chan some money, which infuriates Eun Jae. He goes running for a loan to help back it up, but then discovers something strange with their bank account. Why did Eun Jae list Hyung Woo as a roommate, and never register their marriage in the first place?


Remarks :
You know what I love about this show? It’s just simple, steadfast, and best of all, it’s earnest. No fancy tricks, not even many surprises. But I walk away from it feeling like every character was worth meeting, and that love – real, everyday kind of love – is worth the risk.

And I love the finale. What a heartwarming, funny, adorable finale for a heartwarming, funny, adorable series. So often, dramas waste their last episode being something other than the show that it was for all the other episodes. But this show goes out the same way it started, just with more heart, more happiness, and most importantly, more growth for all the characters.
