"Every Flavor Leads Back to You" In a small café tucked between the hanoks of Ikseon-dong, Park Jaehwan spends his days making gelato and toast that taste like memories. An Italian-trained chef with a gentle heart, he believes every flavor holds a story - of laughter, of healing, of love. When An Yujin-idol, whirlwind, and hopeless sweet-tooth-walks into his life, the quiet rhythm of Mil Toast House begins to change. Together they meet friends old and new, each bringing a slice of joy, chaos, or comfort that finds its way into Jaehwan's recipes: chestnut honey gelato for warmth, caramel apple for gratitude, tiramisu for remembrance. Through fifteen stories of desserts and the people who taste them, After Like becomes a celebration of small kindnesses and second chances-proof that the world is softer than it seems when shared over something sweet.

Set in the golden glow of Autumn 2028, an eight-months pregnant TWICE's Park Jihyo returns to her hometown of Guri, Gyeonggi-do-with her loving (and very nervous) boyfriend Han Minsoo in tow. It's time for introductions: her quiet, tea-loving father Park Jihoon, her dangerously busty mother Cho Mija, and her mischievous younger sister Lee Haeum. Minsoo has a secret plan-to propose to Jihyo before the baby arrives-but between his crippling anxiety, a minefield of teasing, and Mija's unrelenting resemblance to a more mature Jihyo, nothing goes as expected. With the help of his noona Jeongyeon and the unfiltered support of Sana, Minsoo must earn the trust of a family that's warm, overwhelming, and impossible to prepare for. From awkward dinners to quiet fishing trips, kindergarten visits to full-blown seduction tests, Minsoo finds himself pushed to the edge in every possible way. But through the chaos, he'll come to realize that love isn't about perfect moments-it's about choosing someone, again and again, no matter how wild their family is. A heartwarming, hilarious, and deeply intimate story about love, family, and Minsoo's journey of becoming the man Jihyo already believes he is.
