    In 2012, Se Ri traveled overseas to end her life, but her request was rejected by the institution. They recommended for her to go on a vacation across the country instead, hoping that the experience could change her mind. Stubborn as she was, she went home to Seoul with the same state of mind.
    
    Jeong Hyeok lost his brother in the same year, and he had to go home to his family, leaving everything he built in Zurich behind. Months later, he revisits his old apartment at the Old Town to close that chapter of his life for good.
    
    Autumn of 2013. Se Ri and Jeong Hyeok meet at a century-old lodging and become neighbors: her being the new kid in town, and him being the outgoing tenant. She comes to Switzerland for that long overdue sightseeing, and he returns to the city one last time to finish some personal business. The attraction between them is undeniable, a force that keeps them gravitating towards each other even when all the time they have left is just seven days.
    
    With their pasts and futures holding them back, is it possible to let love bloom in one night?All Rights Reserved
