Aiba Mion, a 25-year-old woman, moved to Tokyo from a rural area after finishing university. She landed a full-time job at a Tokyo clothing company and was placed in a role as a store employee. Mion aspires to be part of Tokyo's trendiest crowd, enjoying life with her stylish coworkers and fashionable outfits. Her monthly salary is 150,000 yen, leaving little left over after rent and some entertainment expenses. She typically eats beef-rice bowls and commutes to work by bicycle each day. Mion also attends matchmaking events where men pay for her company. Feeling stuck in her current situation, she believes marrying a wealthy man is the way out. However, a doctor she is interested in rejects her due to their differing lifestyles. Things take a turn for the worse when she hits a dead end in her job. One day, Mion receives an invitation to a high school reunion with the "Glorious Seven," classmates who won a swimming competition 10 years prior. She sees this as an opportunity to find a potential spouse in her hometown, away from the pressures of city life. At the reunion, Mion is impressed by the success of her former classmates, especially four of the men who catch her eye. As she struggles to choose between them, she is unexpectedly kissed by Honda Ryusei, the captain of the winning team. This leads to a shocking revelation that changes everything. Additionally, Mion learns that despite appearances, her friends are also facing challenges in their lives. Will Mion be able to find the ideal marriage partner in her hometown?

In this unconventional and self-referential Korean series filmed through the lens of a computer webcam, a filmmaker attempts to create educational how-to videos about his artistic journey. However, what unfolds is a candid glimpse into his comically uncomfortable personal life, showcased through his messages, video chats, Photobooth images, Final Cut projects, and browsing history. Expect to encounter drunken impulse buys, extortion, and droopy nipples throughout. (AsianCrush)
