Plot
In the bustling world of Tokyo, Kohei Namiki (Hidetoshi Nishijima), a single man on the brink of his 40s, ekes out a living with a part-time job at a security company. Despite his charming looks and winsome personality, Kohei often finds himself being manipulated by those around him. With a heart brimming with dreams but a life hemmed in by familial responsibilities and financial constraints, he yearns for a star that seems forever out of reach.
On an ordinary day, Kohei's life takes a dramatic turn when he's assigned as the personal bodyguard to the stunningly beautiful actress, Han Yoo-Na (Kim Tae-Hee). Yoo-Na, an epitome of perfection, is a paradox wrapped in enigma. She revels in the simplicity of everyday life, savors ordinary Japanese cuisine, and never hesitates to lend a helping hand. Beneath her radiant exterior, however, lies a lonely soul grappling with the harsh realities of the entertainment industry and a secret that threatens to shatter her world.
Initially, their worlds clash, the humble bodyguard and the glamorous superstar, like parallel lines refusing to meet. Yet, as the days pass, a bond kindles between them, reshaping their relationship over the course of 99 days. As their contract nears its end on the 100th day, they stand at a crossroads. Their choice could alter the course of their lives forever, but what path will they choose?
