SYNOPSIS
Eui-joon works the graveyard shift at a convenience store where danger comes with the job. Gangsters frequent the shop regularly, and his nerves are constantly frayed by their presence, but the paycheck keeps him rooted behind the counter. Everything changes when Gun-woo, a mysterious regular customer, intervenes during a dangerous confrontation and saves Eui-joon from a potentially life-threatening situation. Grateful and mesmerized by Gun-woo's decisive heroism, Eui-joon finds himself drawn to this stranger who seems to embody the kind of integrity he's always admired. What starts as simple appreciation becomes something deeper when Eui-joon notices Gun-woo purchasing an unexpected item one night. Suddenly, Eui-joon can't stop thinking about the man who saved him, wondering who he really is beneath the surface. Set against the fluorescent glow of an unlikely meeting place, this two-episode story blends comedy with genuine romantic tension as two people navigate an attraction that neither expected to find in a convenience store after dark.
