One day ahead of his solo career, Do-guk, who has an innate charisma and unaffected personality, wants a collaboration with Flea, who runs a music YouTube channel he enjoys listening to, and strives to reveal Flea's identity.

In addition to this, Yeon-oh was cast as Lee Mak-chun, who forms the love triangle between Han-joo and Do-guk, Kang Seong-yeon as Han-joo's mother, and Yang Dong-geun as Han-joo's father.
