Love in the Big City: the plot, Nam Yoon-su and more

The synopsis of Love in the Big City reads,

"An audacious tale of two roommates, one a gay man and another a straight woman. Through the eyes of Mi Ae begins Go Yeong’s clumsy love story. Stories of laughter, tears, and wounds between a mother in denial of her son's sexuality and his being unable to escape societal judgment."

The narrative of the drama, which is based on the novel Love in the Big City by Park Sang Young, revolves around Go Yeong, who eventually encounters a pure and unparalleled love with Gyu Ho, but is compelled to let him go.

Following Gyu Ho's departure, Go Yeong accompanies a stranger to Thailand and embarks on a late monsoon vacation. As he reminisces about the cherished moments of the past that can never be relived, he achieves profound personal growth.

The plot explores the concepts of love, denial, and self-discovery as Go Yeong ultimately undergoes a transformative relationship with Gyu Ho before circumstances necessitate their separation.

The drama has Jin Ho-eun and Nam Yoon-su featuring in the lead roles. In addition, it also has a supporting cast of Lee Soo-kyung, Lee Se-he, Oh Hyun-kyung and also Kwon Hyuk.
