Nayeong, a 29-old-single mom, goes through the baby care with help of three best friends of her late husband. Nayeong, born with natural optimism and somewhat recklessness, just lost her husband and depends on three distinctive characters. Suhyeon is a competent fund manager and most successful among friends, but most narrow-minded and stingy. Gwanghui is a handsome cartoonist with good taste of fashion, but an ultimate cynic. Gyeongtae is a young and good-looking detective, but too shy to speak in front of girls. Three guys at first feel burdensome when Nayeong asks for support. As time goes by, however, they start to feel a deep emotion toward the baby and to Nayeong as well.
