The romance drama revolves around housemates in their 20s and 30s who are happy-go-lucky and enjoy the freedom they have with each other. Ji Hyun Woo portrays Cha Kang Woo, a good looking psychiatrist with a bizarre personality. Kim So Eun portrays Lee Na Eun, a freelance copy editor who despised dating for the past four years.

Before the premiere night, the cast shares three insights that viewers should expect.
A light-hearted drama that has kind and relatable characters
As a handsome psychiatrist, Ji Hyun Woo mentioned, "As what the title holds, there are times I also felt the same way about myself. The story carries kind and relatable roles that hopefully may influence the viewers. The character as Cha Kang Woo made me like him as the drama progressed. Another interesting role is Lee Na Eun's who will soon discover more about herself and be comforted as our journey comes to comfort each of us and the viewers as well."
A person achieving personal growth while in a co-living space
Kim So Eun shared how the story will cover people who are living together in one space but are not related by blood. The drama will help each character in the story to grow emotionally as they find one another a pillar to hold on in times of hardship. Though for the actress, it is hard to get help towards another person who inflicted the pain as well. But as time goes on, healing comes in.
She explained, "May this drama and the way we convey the story will be a gift to those people who are going through hardships. People who have suffered and feel worn out through their mind and body."
A heartwarming drama that blossoms sweetly
According to Park Gun II, the concept of the drama differs from other shows, which is hard to be seen on screen these days, due to its delicate and warm stories. The actor explained that the most important part is that it will heal the viewers and people who are in the same situation.
In regard to the point of interest of the show, the actor shared, "The other highlighted part of the show is how the actors portray each character and their chemistry with each other. It is exciting as we deliver each personality and try to heal along the way. The people and the story it brings grows in a somewhat unusual environment. I wish as the viewers watch and support us, may they also find healing in many ways."
