Synopsis
Average office worker's secret crush on coworker evolves into unexpected romance through casual relationship.
Park Seon-woo considers himself nothing short of average: a simple man with a loving family, laid-back style, and no dating experience. Yet he harbors a massive, secret crush on his absolutely dashing coworker, Jeong Tae-moon. Over the years, Seon-woo has accumulated a number of obscene fantasies, picturing himself kneeling and submitting before Tae-moon, completely lost in pleasure. In Tae-moon's eyes, however, Seon-woo is all but ordinary. His crush is obvious, his fashion sense outrageous, and his oversized glasses downright ridiculous. When Seon-woo accidentally discovers that Tae-moon likes men as well, he can only think of turning his dreams into reality. Due to an absurd misunderstanding, they start a casual, physical relationship—but as Tae-moon begins to notice Seon-woo's true charm beneath all the eccentricity, he may find himself falling for the weirdest guy he has ever met.
