Plot

Dear Hyeri brings a unique storyline of a hardworking yet struggling news announcer, Joo Eun Ho, who has been working in the same job for the past 14 years. Even after so many years in the line of work, she faces harsh criticism at work while being emotionally exhausted. 

Joo Eun Ho is still reeling from the immense hurt caused by her breakup with Jung Hyun Oh, with whom she had spent 8 years of her life. They part ways due to conflicting views on marriage. After the breakup, their relationship turns sour, and they become enemies at work. 

Unlike Eun Ho, Hyun Oh is one of the top announcers and is respected by everyone at the broadcast station. 

Joo Eun Ho ends up developing a dissociative identity disorder after her younger sibling goes missing and she goes through a painful breakup with Hyun Oh. This emotional exhaustion gives birth to her new personality, Joo Hye Ri, who is the exact opposite of her.

But things get complicated when Joo Eun Ho’s contrasting personalities and her double life begin to smash into one another as both of her lovers, Jung Hyun Oh and Kang Joo Yeon, meet. 

What will happen to Joo Eun Ho and her complicated love stories with two different men?
