A trio of closest friends remains together through thick and thin as they navigate life, love, and grief on the verge of reaching 40. Cha Mi Jo (Ye-jin) is the director of a dermatology clinic in Gangnam. She is a kind character who grew up in a prosperous home with all she could want. Jung Chan Young (Jeon Mi-do) aspired to be an actor but instead became an acting instructor. Although her demeanor may appear direct and unpleasant, the sincerity in her statements makes her a difficult figure to dislike. Jang Joo Hee (Kim Ji-hyun) is the cosmetics manager at a department store. She has yet to have a romantic connection because of her shy attitude.
