Summary (warning:  contains spoilers): Sun is an aspiring chef who, unbeknownst to others, has a disease that will eventually cause her to go blind.  She and her boss (Tae-bin) initially spar with each other, but eventually fall in love even though his best friend (In-ha) is also in love with Sun and his best friend's sister (Ji-ho) is in love with him.  Once Sun's disease becomes known, however, their relationship falls apart due to Tae-bin's difficulty in accepting Sun's disease and Sun's refusal to accept Tae-bin's pity.
