Plot

In the heart of Seoul, Nam Hong Joo, a woman gifted or perhaps cursed, with calamitous prophetic dreams, lives a life tinged with the constant dread of the future. Her world, primarily shared with her mother, Yoon Moon Sun, a resilient widow managing a quaint restaurant, is intruded upon by a pair of newcomers - Jung Jae Chan, a fresh-faced prosecutor, along with his younger brother, Seung Won, who take up residence across the street. Hong Joo's eerie ability to foresee tragic events, an unwelcomed inheritance from her youth, had always left her powerless to prevent the impending doom. However, a twist of fate occurs when Jae Chan is haunted by a sinister premonition involving an accident that entangles Hong Joo and Lee Yoo Beom, a cutthroat attorney who happens to be Jae Chan's former mentor. Summoning his courage, Jae Chan ventures to thwart the course of destiny, consequently saving not just Hong Joo but also Han Woo Tak, a dedicated young police officer. This daring act triggers a peculiar phenomenon; Jae Chan, Hong Joo, and Woo Tak begin to experience dreams about each other, hinting at their lives inexplicably intertwined. As the trio grapples with their shared visions and the uncanny bonds that tie them together, they embark on a quest to decipher the reason behind their connection. Will they be capable of unravelling the mystery that brought them together? More importantly, can they use their unique abilities to shield those they hold dear from the impending peril that their dreams foretell? This fascinating drama captures their shared struggle against an ominous future they can predict, but can they change?
