Cast

He's the chairman of the Jungin Medical Foundation and also the director of a prestigious general hospital while carrying on his duties as a university president. In the professional arena, he is a calculating person who makes management decisions without any emotion, but in his personal life, he displays a liberal and free-spirited streak. He is a natural charmer and attracts many ladies but he always holds back from falling in love. However, his outlook on life is turned upside down after he meets the young and comely ballerina, Ji-min.
A doctor. He's a handsome man and talented surgeon. He lost his mother when he was seven years old and his father was never a part of his life since he was born. So he was taken in by Kyung-san and grew up with his family. He doesn't open up to people easily but he is very tender towards Ji-min.
A prima ballerina. Like her father, she's a warmhearted person and very attractive. For 23 years, she only loved Tae-young but he breaks her heart by abruptly leaving her life. She loses her father, her dreams and the man she loved all at once. Amidst this turmoil, she becomes a changed person.
Jung-ho's daughter and Tae-young's wife. Her first husband died while she was pregnant with their baby and she became a single mom all of a sudden. She falls in love with Tae-young who operated on her ailing daughter Seo-yeon. She asks Tae-young out and they eventually get married. But she constantly worries that he'll leave her one day.
