Yoo Yang faces daily challenges working in customer service and tries to make it through each day without too many scars. She’s a part of the so-called Sampo Generation, a new generation of young professionals who eschews courtship, marriage and childbirth because of the tremendous social and economic pressures facing them. Yang instead takes great delight in food and loves to go around to find and eat great food. But when Yang meets the devilishly good-looking Park Byeong, who shares her attitude and also inexplicably finds her irresistible, will her attitudes about life and love change?
