Seo Hae Won has just moved to a guest house in Seoul. On the rooftop of the guesthouse is a restaurant called "Tasty Florida" run by 4 close friends. A chance encounter with Baek Eun Kyu while on his way. To the guesthouse creates some type of attraction between the two guys. Baek Eun Kyu, who is the chef at the restaurant, runs the place with his best friend Ji Soo who own the restaurant, The two have been friends for over 15 years. For some reason Ji Soo also takes a liking for Seo Hae Won, and before you know there is an awkward love triangle between the three with two men fighting over the newbie without caring for his feelings. Eventually everything falls in place where Ji Soo realizes that he cannot force himself on the mutual love that the other two guys share with one another.
First thing is that I cannot understand, why would two friends who have known each other for over 15 years would get into some pretty dramatic arguments over a boy who they barely know, whether he is gay or not or even whether he likes either of them or not. No importance is given to Seo Hae Won as a character. The backstory of the two friends is never really unpacked that could give us more connection with their characters. They are both extremely good looking for sure and act alright, but its hard to connect with either of them. All this while Seo Hae Won continues to be just there. The other friends that were part of the hotel had not much to offer in the whole situation. Even the attraction between Seo Hae Won and Baek Eun Kyu was sudden and random. None of them really shared any sort of interesting chemistry. Rather than making a love triangle, which didn't make much sense, the film would have been much better if the relationship of the main couple was given more attention and their back stories were better established.
