After living through and remembering seventeen previous lives, twelve-year-old Juwon Yun’s heart can’t be moved by anyone…except a strong, lovable boy named Seoha Mun. Just before she can let him in on her secret, however, their time together is abruptly cut short—until she reincarnates less than a year later. Now, as Jieum Ban, she’s determined to make her way back to Seoha’s side…but he’s haunted by the memory of Juwon dying in his arms, so romance is the last thing on his mind! Will Jieum be able to overcome her own past self and find happiness in her nineteenth life?
Jieum has finally reunited with Seoha, but picking up where they left off isn’t as simple as just asking him out. So she hands him an ultimatum: She gets three chances, and if he rejects her each time, she’ll give up! When an opportunity to meet with Seoha outside work hours arises, she realizes that Juwon’s death has affected him more than she expected. To make things more complicated, the closer she gets to Seoha, the more entangled she becomes with the people from her previous life—which can only spell trouble! With Seoha’s trauma preventing him from moving forward and Jieum’s own fear of telling him the truth holding her back, how will she get him to open up to her?
When Seoha finally remembers how he and Jieum first met, it answers some of the burning questions he has about this strange woman—but not enough to lower his guard. Meanwhile, Chowon is finding Doyun to be an impenetrable fortress, and she’ll do anything to bring his walls crumbling down. Love looks like an uphill battle for Jieum and Chowon…or so Seoha and Doyun would have them believe!
An impromptu seaside outing gives Seoha the push he needs to bury the hatchet with Chowon, freeing him from the ghosts that had been haunting him. Jieum, on the other hand, is trying to piece together the years she missed—until she’s caught red-handed by her former sister in a moment of carelessness! With one seemingly ready to move on and the other clinging to the past, will Seoha and Jieum finally be able to admit how they truly feel?
Now that Seoha has finally agreed to go on a date, things seem to finally be breaking Jieum’s way! Or so she thinks…except Chowon can’t seem to shake her suspicions about Jieum’s strange behavior back at her family’s summer home—and ultimately comes to a shocking conclusion! To further complicate matters, Doyun happens to overhear Jieum’s confession about her identity…Will she be able to smooth things over, or is her 19th life destined for failure?
Jieum and Seoha’s first official date ended in complete disaster, and now Seoha isn’t answering any of her calls or messages! When Seoha’s persistent anxiety surrounding their relationship reaches a breaking point, Jieum must ask herself what’s truly best for him—reveal that she’s actually Juwon Yun, or keep it a secret forever? And even if the truth does come out, will it be enough to save their romance?
In a desperate attempt to alleviate Seoha’s pain and guilt, Jieum tells him the truth! The fact that the first and only love of his life has reincarnated as someone else is a hard pill to swallow, and yet the resemblance between Jieum’s and Juwon’s mannerisms is undeniable. Not to mention, Jieum knows about the contents of the wooden box—a secret Juwon took to an early grave. Eager to finally put this chapter of his life behind him, Seoha’s more determined than ever to catch the mastermind behind their car accident—no matter the cost!
Seoha’s investigation of the car accident from his childhood comes to a head when his favorite uncle is attacked! It’s time to confront the mastermind, which changes Seoha’s familial relationships and finally puts his memories of Juwon Yun to rest after twenty-three years of regret—but what does that mean for his relationship with Jieum Ban? Meanwhile, a relieved Doyun lets his guard down and accidentally reveals his true feelings for Chowon. After countless rejections, will Chowon allow herself to hope for more?
The cat’s out of the bag now that the whole office knows about Jieum and Seoha’s relationship, but it doesn’t bother Jieum in the slightest. She has no plans to let anything get in between them—until a sudden reunion with someone from her distant past leads to a discovery that endangers her future with Seoha yet again! Meanwhile, when Chowon decides to move on from her unrequited love once and for all, Doyun is faced with an ultimatum—will he take a chance on romance or give up on Chowon for good?
Although the revelation of Jieum and Doyun’s connected past looms over both couples, Jieum adamantly refuses to give up on Seoha—even if it means losing her chance to break free from her curse! After all, one lifetime with him out of many is better than a singular one without. But when Seoha learns the price she’s willing to pay, he must decide whether their relationship is worth such a sacrifice. With everyone’s happiness at stake, Jieum is determined to finally uncover the secrets of her first life!
Jieum uncovers the truth behind her past life with Doyun! When she calls Seoha to share the good news, he picks up just in time to hear her get kidnapped…But when Jieum comes to, she finds herself stuck in the memories of her first life. Now being held hostage by, not only those seeking to use her as leverage, but her own past self, will Seoha be able to save her before it is too late?
