When Netflix announced the new series with an amazing cast and crew, netizens couldn’t contain their excitement. We all can’t wait!
A story about the dreams and love of young people who also carry wounds and trauma. Go Gyeom (Choi Woo-Sik) becomes a movie critic after working as an extra actor. He loves movies so much that his goal is to watch all the movies made in the world. Kim Moo-Bi (Park Bo-Young) then comes into his life. Go Gyeom is very curious about her and he even likes her name that sounds like “movie.” Kim Moo-Bi began to work in movie industry due to her love and hatred for her father (who loved movies more than her) and her own curiosity on what exactly is a movie. She has a quiet and peaceful life in the movie industry, but Go Gyeom, who stands out too much, suddenly appears in front of her and causes change in her life. Meanwhile, Hong Shi-Joon (Lee Jun-Young) thinks of himself as a genius, but he is still an unknown songwriter. His ex-girlfriend Son Joo-A (Jeon So-Nee) works as a screenwriter.
