The story follows the romance, marriage, and estrangement of Yong-ki (Lee Jung-jae) and his long-suffering wife, Jung-yeon (Lee Young-ae). They both defied his parents' wishes to marry, but it appears that his parents' fears that things would never work out are coming true. Yong-ki maintains a positive demeanor while turning down mundane job offers in the hopes that his comedic talent will be noticed on a popular talent show for which he is auditioning. Meanwhile, Jung-yeon must support them both while also bearing the pain of a miscarriage that Yong-ki is attempting to forget. To make matters worse, Jung-yeon discovers that she's dying from a terminal disease and though Yong-ki suspects that something is wrong, she never tells him about her illness. Through the silent suffering and the estrangement, both husband and wife believe their marriage is over. But what they fail to notice until it is too late is that they still love each other deeply but both have been overcome by the trials life has thrown at them.
