Plot Summary: Oh Hana and Choi Won have been long time friends and neighbors for the most part of their lives. They have been together through thick or thin and a witness to each other's milestones for nearly twenty years. Now, both in their early thirties and still single, Oh Hana receives an email from Won who jokes about the symptoms of premature aging.  Wanting to debunk the myth that men are like grapes that makes a fine bottle of wine as they age, while women are also like grapes but shrivels comparable to raisins, Oh Hana makes a bet that she'll get married soon enough before she turns thirty-five. However, she finds out that her boyfriend cheated on her when the latter breaks up with her to marry another woman who is already carrying his child.  Oh Hana pretends that she is okay and decides to drop by to her ex-boyfriend's wedding to wish them well. However, Choi Won ends up creating a scene and making his bestfriend look bitter in the eyes of the about-to-wed couple.

Getting anxious for still being single at her age, Oh Hana meets a young man, who happens to be an intern in the office she is working for. She seems to be flattered with all the attention she's getting from him, but she later on sees the young man's unfavorable motive for wooing her. Choi Won on the other hand is being sought after by his junior but is not at all interested in her. Choi Won's attention has continuously revolved around his bestfriend and nothing else. Even his sister could attest to the fact that she has never heard her brother talk about any other girls except Oh Hana. He does not have any favorite food except the food that his bestriend's mother prepares. There is really nothing much to tell about him and nothing exciting really going on in his life.

Unexpectedly, Oh Hana's ex-fiance, Cha Seo-hoo, suddenly shows up in Choi Won's office to confirm if his  relationship with his bestfriend hasn't changed. Choi Won's unwelcoming behavior creates an unpleasant atmosphere between the two. Seo-heo surprises Oh Hana when he visits her in the office.

Choi Won becomes over protective with his bestfriend and he is doing his best to keep her from the person who has hurt her in the past for not showing up on their wedding day.

My Rating: 10/10

My Thoughts: I would absolutely recommend this drama series - very cute and sweet!
