Plot Summary: Min-ho is a musical composer struggling to create a new song. He comes out of the house for a breath of fresh air and to find some sort of inspiration. In the park, he runs into a chinese tourist lady, Ling ling, requesting to take a picture of her. Min-ho initially thought that the lady wants him to pose for her. Despite the language barrier, they eventually understand each other and Ling ling poses for the shoot and they end up adding each other in their Line account.  From the park, Ling-ling heads to the airport for Shanghai, China. Min-ho sends a pic of an item Ling-ling dropped in the park. She replied stating that it's her USB and it's important to her. Min-ho follows her to the airport to hand her the USB. Still in the airport, Ling ling sent a thank you text. Min-ho, who is already outside received the message and a few more. He accidentally hit the send button when the dog startles him with a bark, sending an 'I love you' emoticon. Unable to come up with an appropriate follow up note, Min-ho decides to leave it at that.

Back in individual's own home, they keep in touch via Line App until they have fallen in love with each other. Min-ho tries to initiate a video call but Ling ling just lets her phone ring. She worries about her looks, and just told him that she is already sleepy.

The following day, Ling ling fixes herself and calls Min-ho who is not able to take her call as he is upstairs doing his own preparation for the said video  call. Unfortunately, his stylist answers the call and is mistakenly perceived as Min-ho's girlfriend. Oblivious, Min-ho calls her up but Ling-ling did not take any of his calls. Both of them are downcasted. Ling-ling stays only in bed and refuses to eat while Min-ho appears to be depressed. The stylist feels guilty and responsible for Min-ho's depression. 

Ling ling receives a package with a plane ticket to Korea. She is picked up from the airport and is transported to Min-ho who plays a song to seranade her.

My Thoughts: This mini drama series was created for the Korean search engine site Naver's global messenger 'Line' for China. If you are a LMH fan, then, this is for you! The very light drama is so cute and full of Lee Min-ho's charm. Please do not look for anything deeper as the story is intended for its promotional campaign. 

My Rating: 10/10
