What do you do when you're supposed to be boyfriend doesn't have the time for you leaving you hanging and dateless all the time. Who do you call? The backup boyfriend. In comes your on-the-go best friend who always acts as the backup boyfriend. It's easier to pretend since you have feelings for him before. But what will happen when fate plays with you, and your backup boyfriend falls in love with you, and wants nothing but to be your real boyfriend? And to add to the complications, your backup boyfriend/best friend is your boyfriend's boss who is keeping a secret identity. Who will you choose, the boyfriend whom you love but doesn't have the time for you, or the backup boyfriend who gives his best to show how much he loves you but is keeping a very dark secret from you.

When your CEO is colder than a tax audit, allergic to emotions, and famous for firing people mid-sentence, the last thing you expect is to catch him ugly-crying over a K-drama in the office at 2 a.m. But that’s exactly what happens to me — Hailey Park, his overworked (and underpaid) assistant — when I accidentally walk in on Ethan Jang, Seoul’s most feared corporate shark, sobbing into a tissue, whispering, “Don’t die, Eun-bi…” Now he’s bribing, threatening, and borderline begging me to keep his little secret. Except keeping it isn’t so easy when: He starts quoting romantic K-drama lines during board meetings. Our “pretend dating” scheme (to avoid a scandal) somehow turns into him practicing confession scenes with me. And worst of all… I might actually be falling for the man who once told HR I “breathed too loud near his espresso machine.” He’s all logic, I’m all chaos. He’s corporate stoicism, I’m K-drama-level dramatic. And together, we’re rewriting the script — one accidental heart flutter at a time.
