Full Summary:
For college student So-hyeon (Lee Yeon-hee), it was love at first sight when she meets Ji-wu (Jeong Il-woo). A rather embarrassing incident at a party enables So-hyeon to finally converse with Ji-wu, and she jumps at the opportunity to ask him to help build her alcohol tolerance. Meanwhile, Ji-wu, who had taken a semester off from school to nurse a broken heart, is slightly baffled by the new blooming romance with So-hyeon. Hippie-like activist Jin-man (Eom Tae-woong) finally returns home after six years of traveling around the world to give free hugs to strangers (he basically stands around with a sign that reads "free hugs"). He tries to trace back his former girlfriend ? "the second half of my incomplete heart" ? and the only way he can reach her is to retrieve his old cell phone number. The new user of his old number is Su-jeong (Lim Jeong-eun), a hotshot worker at an advertisement firm. Although Su-jeong has an excellent career, things aren't going so well in the love department. She is constantly being rejected by Jeong-seok (Ryoo Seung-yong), a gifted copywriter and single father suffering from the loss of his beloved wife. She learns to persist as she tries to pave a way into the heart of Jeong-seok and his young son. "My Love" does offer some genuinely endearing characters and stories. The subway lovebirds ? Ju-won and Se-jin ? picnic on the train, play hide-and-seek and demonstrate every possible way to spend an entire day and night on line 2 via Seongnae station (although there are parts that should read "do not imitate"). Newcomer Lee Yeon-hee, who debuted opposite Kang Dong-won in "M", gives a charming performance that strikes a comparison to Jeon Ji-hyeon in "My Sassy Girl". Several people experience a miracle of love under the spell of a solar eclipse. Se-jin is obsessively in love with a very bizarre young woman named Ju-won. So-hyun confesses her feeling for Ji-wu by clinging to him and asking him how to become a strong drinker. Jeong-seok is a single father working as a copywriter, loved by Su-jeong, whose advances he rejects every time. Jin-man is a free-hug activist who returns to korea to meet his old flame.
