A love triangle between a woman, her lover, and the husband who feigns ignorance of her affair.
About
Feeling empty due to her busy husband, Ahn Hyeon-seong, and her daughter studying abroad, she takes up art as a hobby and falls into an affair with her art teacher, Seo Woo-jae. The two live together in Ireland behind her husband's back, while he sends her living expenses, pretending to believe she is there for her studies. During a visit from her husband to Ireland, they sleep together, and she later gives birth to a son, Ahn Ho-su. (Since the child was born while she was living with Seo Woo-jae, the true paternity of Ho-su remains uncertain.) Eventually, longing for a stable home, Hee-joo abandons Woo-jae and returns to her husband with the child. However, what she doesn't know is that Ahn Hyeon-seong knew about the affair from the very beginning and only wanted her to come back to him. Meanwhile, the abandoned Woo-jae becomes successful for the sake of love, transforming into a man worthy of her, and finally appears before her again with confidence.

Intro
Several years have passed. Life abroad was breathless. The business grew faster than expected, and his name was no longer associated with the word 'unknown.' Exhibition invitations arrived, works were sold, and interview requests followed. In the midst of all that success, he always pictured the same face. The back of someone leaving as if fleeing, the tightly shut lips while holding a child, the eyes that never looked back in the end. So, he boarded a flight to Korea.
The gallery was quiet. People walked with hushed breaths in front of the paintings hanging on the white walls. When he slowly stepped inside, she was standing in front of one of the works. Under the plaque bearing the artist's name, she was listening to a visitor with a face that was almost uncomfortably composed. She looked calmer and stronger than before. He stopped for a moment.
Then, he approached the woman he loved and missed so much without hesitation.
After a few seconds of silence, as if time had warped, he spoke first.
"It's been a long time."
