Set in the seaside town of Gongjin, the story tells of Hong Du Sik, who has come back to Gongjin after spending 5 years in Seoul, carving out a career and facing the death of his good friend .

At his lowest, it was Gamri, and old granny who texted him when he was about to kill himself, who saved him. Unable to forgive himself for his friend’s death, he moved back to Gongjin and started out with life again, but hiding himself and his capabilities by doing odd jobs, living his life lesser than he is, contented with just helping out with meagre chores like catching anchovies and mending fish nets.

He meets Yoon Hye Jin, a dentist who has moved to Gongjin, and they fall in love. Not knowing that they have actually met more than once. The first time when she was a kid with her family, he tried to make her laugh when his grandfather was taking photos for her family.

Another time, she was angel who dialled for help when she saw his alone in patient clothes on a bridge.

When Dusik hid himself and refuses to acknowledge his feelings, thinking he is undeserving, Gamri said to him

“we all know you have had a tough time and we all appreciate how you go around helping people but go and live your life. Eat good food and be happy. Then you will be happy and your loved ones will be happy.”

In the last episode, Gamri wrote a letter to him when he find himself wrestling with his past.

Seeing what Granny wrote reminded me of myself, it made me think of the time i was in a wreck and how gor gor would prepare food for me and nurse me back to wellness and balance.

She said the same, that no matter what, eat I must.And i shouldn’t even skip a meal so that I have strength (to stand up back and go on.)

I was retrieved with the oats she cooked and the soups she warmed up for me every night.

And now I understood why, like granny, perhaps she felt that preparing food —and seeing that I ate well, was the only thing she could do for me.

And I ate them all and came back.
