Bumping again, still no luck!
Sorry this will be pretty long-winded because I’ve tried to find it multiple times and no one seems to know.
This is a show I watched on Netflix probably 3ish years ago. I’m fairly certain it isn’t on there anymore because I’ve tried to find it and I can’t. It was an Asian (Korean I think? Maybe Japanese? I can’t remember) romance show that centered around three girls and their separate romances. The girls were best friends.
The main girl was a student, and had her romance with a fellow student who was secretly a famous musician (I think his stage name started with a W?) and they had a sort of “I hate you but secretly I like you” thing going on. I think she was forced to work with him for the class. One scene with them I remember in particular is when she suddenly got sick with food poisoning and he took her back to his apartment so she could diarrhea with nothing but a foldout divider separating them, then he went and bought her stomach medicine. At some point she found out about his secret and he ended up taking her to this house he was shooting a music video at. He also had some weird lust-y side romance with a famous artist. I think he started getting close to the main girl but at some point they stop talking for maybe a year, for what reason I can’t remember (probably start of season 2). She had a baby she had to take care of sometimes (I think her sisters baby?) and he would continually confront her and try to convince her to give him the time of day. The last scene I can remember with them is them on a rooftop together.
One of the other girls is an office worker. She was very stressed and pressured a lot for one reason or another, so she started going to get massages. I believe it was a family owned place, and she found her romance in her masseuse. He was always very sweet and would give her roses, and I think he walked her home a few times.
The other girl was the train wreck friend. She had a history of dating musicians who were on tour and going on the tour bus with them, then getting left behind once they got bored with her. She had finally moved on from that and said she wanted to date someone seriously. She started working as an assistant to a director on a movie set. She quickly fell head over heels in love for the leading man, who was a very serious older guy, and was supposed to be a pretty big deal and a great actor. I think maybe he had been out of the business for a bit and this movie was him coming back, if I remember right. She would keep trying to impress him and get his attention by doing tasks for him, meanwhile not doing the rest of her job very well.
There was also some side-story happening with a girl who I think might have been the main girls sister. I think she found out her husband had been cheating on her and she confronted his mistress, but I can’t remember what came of it.
That’s officially everything I can remember from that show. I think maybe the title had something to do with a tree or a flower but I could be totally wrong. If anyone has any idea I would be so grateful. I’d like to close by saying it wasn’t a good show at all, but it holds a special place in my heart and I’d really like to find it for some nostalgia. Thanks for your time!
