Season 1 saw Jeong-won and Gyeo-wool finally end up together after Gyeo-wool's intense love confession with the two sharing a passionate kiss. 

Ik-jun too, confessed his feelings for Seong-hwa and said he'd wait for her response after he returns from his symposium in Spain. And now, with season 2 in tow, Seong-hwa will have to face her feelings too.

Jun-wan and Ik-sun too, progressed in their relationship, however, they are yet to come clean about it to Ik-sun's brother, Ik-jun, who is also Jun-wan's best friend.

And finally, Seok-hyeon finds out that his father left all his wealth to him and has kept nothing aside for his pregnant mistress. With his father's will stating that Seok-hyeon has to run the company, he makes a hard decision and chooses to pursue his passion of being a doctor.
