Soo-hyuk makes a living pretending to love people.

As a professional “dating companion,” his job is simple: listen to clients’ worries, comfort their loneliness, and play the role of the perfect partner—sometimes for a dinner, sometimes for an evening, sometimes for something more intimate. Every connection is temporary, every emotion carefully performed.

To Soo-hyuk, love is just another service.

But one day, he meets a client who asks for nothing unusual.

Instead of romance or desire, the man simply wants to share a quiet meal… a conversation… and fragments of a lonely past he has carried for years. There are no demands, no expectations—only sincerity.

For the first time, Soo-hyuk finds himself lowering the walls he built to protect his heart.

What begins as a simple appointment slowly transforms into something real. And as their meetings continue, Soo-hyuk realizes that the feelings growing inside him are no longer part of an act.

After pretending to love for so long, he may finally be experiencing it for the first time.
