Title auto-translated
by Hong Sungsu
Seong Jae-rim, the 64-year-old chairwoman of the powerful Seongha Group, has been given a terminal cancer diagnosis with little time left. Her family pressures her to resolve the question of shareholding inheritance before she dies, while she herself struggles to put defensive measures in place — all of it feeling hollow in the shadow of her approaching death. Then Dr. Song Mu-han of Seongha Pharmaceuticals pays her a visit and shares what seems like a casual travel story, but is anything but. He tells her of a miracle drug called Recovery Half, capable of restoring every cell in a terminal patient's body to half their cellular age. The drug's stunning success in clinical trials is confirmed through its first and only test subject, Jang Il-jun — a man who becomes invaluable to Chairwoman Seong. Two people brought to their knees by unfulfilled desires and broken relationships, weeping at the empty edge of their lives, find themselves bound together by fate as the first and second subjects of Recovery Half. If they could return to who they were at the midpoint of their lives, could they dare to love again?
