"The wild pear that didn't ripen in summer—that child walks in." Twenty-one-year-old Bae Gong-ju has never left her small village. One day, a new boxing gym opens in town, and when she goes to sneak a peek, a handsome man she’s never seen before approaches her. "Want to grab a cup of coffee? Let’s go to a cafe." Having worked in the pear orchards among elderly women since she was young, Gong-ju never had many opportunities to mingle with others, and this strange man’s sudden approach feels surreal. Although his strangely intrusive demeanor feels awkward, a corner of her heart keeps fluttering. Since that day, Cheon-yeok has been visiting the pear orchard every day, slowly seeping into Gong-ju's familiar routine... His nonchalant yet affectionate gestures, his unhesitating gaze, and an attraction that is hard to explain. A strange encounter that began in the sweltering heat of summer. How far will the relationship between these two, as clumsy as an unripened pear, eventually ripen?
