Love Next Door plot
The plot of the show follows two childhood friends, Choi Seung Hyo and Bae Seok Ryu, who become distant with time and yet found themselves in each other’s lives in adulthood. Their mothers became close friends when the two were just four years old, leading Seung Hyo and Seok Ryu to spend much of their childhood together, even bathing at a women's bathhouse. Now, as adults, their paths cross once more.
Choi Seung Hyo is one of Korea's most prominent young architects, leading a prestigious architecture company named In. He leads a seemingly perfect life and is known for his striking looks and charismatic personality. However, Seung Hyo carries memories he'd rather forget, most of which involve Bae Seok Ryu.
Bae Seok Ryu had a smooth journey growing up, consistently ranking first in her school and approaching everything with boundless passion and energy. After graduating from university, she secured a position as a project manager at a major company. Despite her success, she inexplicably quit her job and has remained unemployed since. It’s in this phase of her life that she reconnects with Choi Seung Hyo.
Years later, their paths cross again as adults, revealing stark contrasts in their lives. Whenever they meet, they both start bickering about the simplest things. However, deep inside, they both care for each other’s well-being.
