Synopsis

Lee Jung-hee is the second daughter of a family who owns a lingerie factory. She leads a group of teenage girls who have chaotic adventures together. She meets Bae Dong-moon through a group date, and Dong-moon immediately falls for her. However, Jung-hee has a crush on Son Jin, a cute looking senior student of a boys school, and begins to follow him around to attract his attention.

One day, Park Hye-joo, a transfer student from Seoul, joins their class and becomes the center of attention, creating jealousy and friction among the heroine and her friends. Despite Jung-hee's attention, Son Jin is attracted to Hye-joo. However, Hye-joo has no romantic feelings for Son Jin, as she is interested in Joo Young-choon, an ex-gangster now turned local handyman.

This is the story of their growing friendship, as the heroine and the new girl start to bond despite their initial rivalry.

There is also a darker side to the story, with a mystery surrounding an increasing number of sexual assaults in the city. And at the local toy factory, female workers begin disappearing one by one.
