Plot
There is a common Korean belief that anything plus nine (gu in Korean) is always "cursed" and brings about more hardship than usual, including the ninth year of every decade in one's life.
Gu Gwang-soo is 39 years old. He was once the brilliant PD (production director) of the nation's top live music program. But his fall from grace occurs when members of an indie band he'd cast drop their pants onstage and flash the entire country during a live broadcast (based on a real-life incident on MBC in 2005[2][3][4]). Gwang-soo loses his position and gets shunted to another program, spending the rest of his professional life in obscurity. Gwang-soo is desperate to get married, but his workaholic ways leave him little time to date. He often thinks about "the one who got away," his ex-girlfriend Joo Da-in who suddenly broke up with him one day and left him heartbroken. When they meet again, Da-in is a single mother whose life revolves around her young daughter.
Kang Jin-gu is 29 years old. Fashionable and smooth, he is a tour planner for a large vacation travel agency. Jin-gu has been carefree for most of his life, but he faces a rough patch as he turns 29 and starts having to reevaluate his whole future. He has a coworker, Ma Se-young, who's from a small town, is outspoken and rough around the edges but a loyal friend.

But Soo-ah has the entire district's high school boys swooning over her.
