Episode 1
Hong Ji Hyo had a UFO experience when she was in high school and had been haunted by it.
A therapist helped her sort out her mental health.
She now works in an architecture company which she got through family connection.
As her friends said, Ji Hyo is a lucky girl, with a father and stepmother with good jobs, and a boyfriend who would marry her if she asked him to.
JiHyo knew this but somehow she was was unhappy in her life because the alien apparition is back.
She went to see her therapist who told her to calm down.
Anyway, her boyfriend surprised her by telling her that he got them a bigger house to move into.
He wanted them to move in together as they have been dating for four years.
She agreed at first and even invited her parents to meet her boyfriend.
But during dinner, she just walked out, she then got alien experience, where a green helmeted alien appeared before her and was trying to grab her. She ran away from the alien until she ended in a field where she found a camper van.
She fainted when she opened the van door. She then woke up standing at the edge of a rooftop.
Someone found her.
She met Lee Si Kook, her boyfriend, later. She told him that they should break up because she was too weird.
I found the first twenty minutes of this drama rather too fanciful. But give it a chance because it does get better and more intriguing.
Episode 2
Her boyfriend just vanished into thin air and when Jihyo tried to look for him, all the evidence showed that he had been abducted by aliens.
In her desperation to find him, she contacted a local UFO-Watching Club where she met disparate individuals.
She met a very pretty girl which she did not recognise as her friend in high school. She was Bo-ra who she used to hang out with in the van after school.
Her shock and worry about Lee Si Kook had now affected her job. Though it was almost handed to her due to her good connection, she was able to prove that she was more than competent to perform her job that it why it was noticeable when she was making mistakes.
Her manager had a talk with her but she decided instead to take a few days off where she started looking for her boyfriend. She found that he had closed his account, sold his car, and moved out of his apartment. She was told that he went abroad;
So, is she mentally unhinged or was she really seeing aliens?!!!
