Plot[]

In a high school in Chuncheon, a rebellious, disobedient student named Seo Kang-wook meets a young and naive teacher Lee Yeol-joo, and despite everything, they fall in love.

Initially, Yeol-joo paid a lot of attention to Kang-wook, recognizing his inherent intelligence and talent and hoping to steer him to the good path. This attention later coalesced into attraction and then love, grudgingly admitted. Yeol-joo herself was in an apparently steady relationship with a promising police inspector, Kim Tae-hyun, who cares for her a whole lot more than she does in return.

A narcoleptic, Yeol-joo accidentally kills one of Kang-wook's friends, but she passes out and remembers nothing. To protect her, Kang-wook takes the blame and goes to jail, but not before convincing Yeol-joo that her memory of killing the man was just an episode of narcoleptic hallucination.

Five years later, Kang-wook finishes his sentence, but Yeol-joo is now engaged to Tae-hyun. Still unaware that she is the real killer, both Kang-wook and Tae-hyun work together to protect her from the truth. Later learning what sacrifice he has made for her, Yeol-joo wants to return to Kang-wook, but this time Kang-wook is not alone—Ja-kyung, his former classmate and currently a radio program host, is beside him. The circumstances hamper Yeol-joo from loving Kang-wook, but she is desperate to help him recover the lost five years and become a top-notch cook.
