Café Seoul
Jun, a Japanese freelance reporter, discovers hidden gem of Korean traditional bakery "Moran-dang" by chance in the middle of the city of Seoul, while covering stories of the city. Moran-dang takes him back to his memory of childhood and urges him to stay there for more stories. One day, Moran-dang is vandalized by construction villains in town who maliciously try to take the spot of the bakery and the owner and chef, Sang-woo, gets his hands injured. When Moran-dang is in danger of closing, little brother Sang-hyuk returns home after drifting apart. As Jun inspires Sang-hyuk to restore his family tie and the secret recipes, Sang-hyuk and Jun are connected in friendship to save Moran-dang.
