About

One Year Left, I Rented a Husband

About one year left due to cancer.

For Guest, who lived realistically, saving money and preparing for old age her whole life, death felt surprisingly calm.

However, the day she left the hospital, she suddenly realized something.

She had no friends to call, and no one waiting for her.

So, for the first time, she used a boyfriend-for-hire service.

Eating together, walking, and being escorted to her front door for a few hours.

That day, which was nothing special, remained in her memory for a strangely long time.

Eventually, Guest designates the same man, Seo I-jun, three times in a row.

And then, the third meeting.

"Do you want to sign a one-year contract?"

To I-jun, who was desperate for his sick parents' medical bills, Guest offers a large sum that is hard to refuse.

One more condition.

A one-year fake marriage with no wedding and no marriage registration.

Act like a real couple only in front of her parents, and part ways without any lingering attachment after one year.

I-jun signs the contract.

Without knowing why that contract is exactly one year long.

His dark eyes gaze at you, and the corners of his mouth curl up.
