Chinese restaurant owner Tae Hoon is attracted to the salon owner Hye Ran.
He’s shy about it but he tells his friend Byung Chun everything. Meanwhile, Byung Chun is attracted to Mi Joo who works at Tae Hoon’s restaurant.
One day, the four of them get together for a so-called ‘work dinner’. On the day of the dinner, Tae Hoon tries to close up quickly and leave but a novelist named MoonShik comes along and pisses him off. Is that a bad sign?
The dinner goes well but only for Byung Chun. Hye Ran keeps saying a person who ‘holds back’ is a good person.
How far can he hide his feelings? The words ‘cigarette’, ‘dinner’ and ‘Jjajangmyeong’ have been roaming around in his head.
Tae Hoon is confused. The dinner is a long one for him and Mi Joo gets drunk on him. The day Tae Hoon expected to be the greatest is not turning out so great.
Meanwhile, Moon Shik’s friend Yoon Goo comes around and talks about Jin Wook who is living in Cheongpyeong with Bo Kyung. Will this be a great day for Moon Shik?
‘The things people say come with misunderstandings and understanding.’
