Hold On Me - Mr Plankton [ Hae-jo ]

(Female x oc) (kdrama)

Hae Jo has always lived his life on the fringes, a lone drifter making ends meet with his odd-job business. With no family to call his own, he's learned to endure life's unpredictability-until a devastating diagnosis of a terminal brain condition threatens to put an early end to his solitary existence. As he grapples with the news, Hae Jo makes a desperate wish: to experience love, real and true, before his time runs out.

Fate seems to hear his call when he meets Leena, a spirited and resilient Indian woman living and working in Korea. Struggling with her own challenges far from home, Leena's path crosses Hae Jo's when she finds herself in need of help that only he can provide. What begins as an unlikely friendship slowly deepens into something neither of them expected-a connection that feels as destined as it is fragile.

As their bond grows, Hae Jo and Leena discover the beauty of love in its most raw and vulnerable form. But with time slipping through Hae Jo's fingers, every moment becomes precious. Together, they must navigate the bittersweet realities of living fully in the face of uncertainty.

Wistful, heartwarming, and achingly tender, Hold On Me is a story of two souls finding hope and meaning in the unlikeliest of places-and the transformative power of love that transcends borders, time, and the odds.
