Do-Yun Cha decides he isn’t looking for 'true love.' In fact, he wants a fake marriage. One fateful night, Ha-Yeon, who's known him since their college club days, confesses to Do-Yun that she wants in on his passionless arrangement. The problem is... she has a long-time crush on him! Can she convince him to fall head over heels for her? Or will he catch wind of her hidden intentions? (Source: Tapas, edited) Note: Includes five extra chapters.
