As interest rises in "Melting Me Softly" so too has focus been put on the drama's character correlation chart. The drama's relationships are actually fairly simple to keep track of, as the story deals with relationships between a fairly limited set of cast members.
There are only thee real zones of characters. While Ji Chang-wook's relationships focus on his professional relationships, Won Jin-ah's relationships are more centered around friendships, though neither has a particularly large circle. Then there are the scientists responsible for the two of them being frozen for twenty years, leaving them twenty years younger in the present day compared to their former associates.
"Melting Me Softly" is primarily about culture clash between the past versions of their characters and the future shock related to they're returning to the present day. Both leads have to struggle with the fact that their significant others are in very different spots in their lives compared to when they left - leaving the leads themselves as the only ones who can really understand each other. The drama airs on Saturdays and Sundays at nine in the evening.
