Jaehyun’s normally bleak and mundane life was turned upside down when he had to end his bachelor life by adopting two kids out of the blue. Things took another 180 turn when he reconnected again with his long-lost best friend Kim Yerim, and the two of them learned what it takes to be happy.

 
 
 

Foreword

 
the pursuit of happiness.

For Jung Jaehyun, life is an obligation that he had to go through. Jaehyun spent 28 years of his life in a boring, mundane, lifestyle. Everything was done in moderation. Everyone wondered why a handsome bachelor with a stellar career and good family background like him hasn’t married yet? Isn’t marriage supposed to bring him happiness? Well, Jaehyun himself is not sure what is his parameter of happiness.

For Kim Yerim, life is a challenge that she had to overcome. Yerim spent 28 years of her life in solitude and struggle. Everything was a hardship. Everyone wondered how life could be so cruel for such a beautiful woman like her. Well, Yerim has never been truly surrounded by happiness.

The two people’s life were entwined as they embarked on a journey together in pursuit of the true meaning of happiness.

 

“Love comes when you least expect it.”
