Han Seon Nyeo fills her days with school, socializing with friends, enjoying comics, and fantasizing about her first love. The one aspect that distinguishes Seon Nyeo from countless other teenage girls is her striking resemblance to the main character of a romantic comic that gained popularity over ten years ago. Until now, she hadn’t paid much attention to this similarity, but her perspective shifts dramatically when she unexpectedly encounters the charming male lead of the comic, Cheon Nam Uk. Having literally emerged from the pages of the comic book, Nam Uk stands before Seon Nyeo in the real world. Shocked by the sudden manifestation of a fictional character, Seon Nyeo is left pondering how he arrived and, more crucially, how he will return. While she seeks clarity on these questions, Nam Uk dedicates himself to the sole goal of capturing Seon Nyeo's heart. Even though he is undeniably attractive, every time Nam Uk speaks, he utters the corniest lines. How can he possibly win over his leading lady when his words tend to make her cringe?
