Yoo Yeon-woo heads to Palawan Island in the Philippines for her cousin’s wedding. Suddenly, a tsunami hits, and she gets swept away, only to be dramatically rescued by Major Kang Jae-hyun of the Naval Rescue Squadron. She figured that was it for their connection, never imagining they’d meet again.

“How many Instagram accounts have you made to pick up girls so far?”

“Excuse me, I didn’t quite catch that?”

“Oh, don’t pretend you didn’t hear me!”

Years later, they meet again in Korea. Jae-hyun is still super handsome, capable, and while he doesn’t talk much, his actions are totally sweet. Sweet enough to offer a contract relationship with a ridiculous proposal.

“Until your mom is stable, I’ll pretend to be your girlfriend, Major Kang Jae-hyun!”

But this guy isn’t an easy catch.

“What do you get out of this contract, Ms. Yoo Yeon-woo?”

What do you think, obviously? It’s you, Major Kang Jae-hyun.

“Who do you think confessed first? Honestly, I’ve never confessed to anyone in my life.”

“Should we say I confessed first?”

At Jae-hyun’s words, her eyes sparkled for a moment.

“I guess that would be better, wouldn’t it?”

The man who disappeared into the sea three years ago now washes into Yeon-woo’s daily life like a wave.

“I grabbed onto you because I don’t want to lose you now. You, Yoo Yeon-woo.”
