In the quiet countryside of Osaka, Shimizu Erin has perfected the art of peaceful living-and, naturally, cooking. As the sous chef at her uncle's hidden gem of a restaurant, she's content with her routine, even when memories from the past stir up like an unexpected spice in a familiar dish. But, just like her best recipes, life has a knack for tossing in the most surprising ingredients.

Enter Kang Ji-hoon, a K-pop idol who can't catch a fish to save his life, and Park Tae-hyun, his hilarious partner-in-crime who's always one joke away from causing trouble. What starts as an innocent encounter by the lake quickly spirals into something Erin didn't ask for-romance, friendship, and a whole lot of chaos.

Erin's best friend Yuki is more than happy to push her out of her comfort zone, especially when it involves matchmaking with a certain idol. And just when Erin thinks she's got enough on her plate-balancing her career, family, and her new feelings for Ji-hoon-her ex-boyfriend and Ji-hoon's crazy celebrity life decide to stir the pot a little more.

Now, Erin's world is heating up faster than the kitchen stove, and with meddling friends, love triangles, and cultural clashes, things are about to get deliciously complicated. Will Erin and Ji-hoon figure out the recipe for love, or will the pressures of fame and family be too much to handle?

In this heartwarming and hilarious love story, it's not just the food that's getting spicy-so is the romance.
