There, she meets Baek Gun-woo, chef and owner of the restaurant "Warm and Cozy.". Jung-joo met Baek Gun-woo previously during their nineteenth birthday and mistaken that they are twin. Jung-joo first mistakes him for a con artist, because he can't seem to help himself from telling charming lies left and right.
