Day by Day
하루하루
Synopsis
Sa Jinheon, the CEO of a food service company who lives for his own ego and indulges in a promiscuous lifestyle, discovers that someone is impersonating him on the LGBTQ+ social media app “Rainbow Bridge.”
The culprit turns out to be Lee Haru, a shut-in working part-time at the gym Jinheon frequents.
“I’ve already saved PDFs of everything. The lawsuit is coming soon. See you at the police station.”
Terrified by the threat of a lawsuit, Haru goes to Jinheon’s company. While trying to flee in a panic, he ends up damaging Jinheon’s sports car.
“You couldn’t… find it in your heart to let it slide… could you?”
“It’s not a small amount of money. 12 million isn’t exactly pocket change, now is it?”
“I don’t have any money… Can I pay in installments?”
“It can’t be helped, then. If you don’t have money, you’ll have to pay with your body.”
Forced to work off the repair costs through manual labor, Haru begins working as a housekeeper at Jinheon’s house, marking the start of their bickering cohabitation.
At first, Jinheon’s only intention is to boss Haru around with menial chores.
“Welcome home.”
But at some point, Jinheon realizes that he quite likes the sight of Haru greeting him when he returns from work.
Lee Haru is a small pebble tossed into Sa Jinheon’s monotonous daily life.
What kind of ripples will that pebble create in his once-still lake?
