As Ju Sungji starts working at a new game development company, Hello Studio, she quickly captures the attention of her coworkers as the newest recruit. However, only one person piques Sungji's interest, her direct and no-nonsense team leader Sung Sumin, who she meets her welcoming party. At the party Sungji finds out how little Sumin can handle her alcohol, and watches as she is brought home by the company president, Baek Seju. Soon an intense love triangle develops between the three women.
