The romance melodrama revolves around a famous actor, Shin Joon Young (Kim Woo Bin) and a documentary producer, Noh Eul (Bae Suzy), who, during their teenage years, had a tough and painful split. The pair went on with their lives and as time passes, learned how to tame the pain, but once they bumped into each other, the sting emerges once more.

Not made for the faint of heart, “Uncontrollably Fond” features 20 episodes—each of which are heavy and heartbreaking.
