Synopsis

When it comes to love, neither time nor love seems to matter.

Through love, we learn to live life, understand others and know the importance of families. In “Love is All Around”, love is shown by two generations of two families. What is a family? “Love is All Around” will show you that love is in fact always all around you in the name of the “family”.

Everyone has first love and this love doesn’t always have a happy ending. Even to Bo-Ra comes this first love and an unbearable crisis as well. The guy she loves with all of her heart turns out to be the son of her mother’s boyfriend. She didn’t know the end of her love would come so soon. Neither did she express her love as much as she could. She never knew that if you lose that opportunity and that moment, love just melts away like ice cream.

Synopsis

It’s a love story between the disobedient student Kang-wook and his teacher Yool-ju set in a high school in Chuncheon.

Before meeting Kang-wook, Yool-ju has been dating Tae-hyeon, a public prosecutor. But over time Yool-ju and Kang-wook fall deeply in love with each other despite social prejudices, the age gap and the teacher-student relation. One day, Yool-ju accidentally kills Kang-wook’s classmate who intentionally harasses Kang-wook. But due to narcolepsy, Yool-ju doesn’t remember what has happened, as she falls asleep during the incident. To protect her, Kang-wook goes to jail in place of Yool-ju.

Five years later, when Kang-wook is released from prison, he meets with Yool-ju again, but Yool-ju is engaged to Tae-hyeon. Learning what sacrifice he has made for her, Yool-ju wants to return to Kang-wook, but this time Kang-wook is not alone — Ja-kyung, his former classmate and currently a radio program host, is beside him. The circumstances hamper Yool-ju from loving Kang-wook, but she is desperate to help him recover the lost five years and become a top-notch cook.
