Synopsis

Han Hae Na is a seemingly ordinary high school teacher, but her family harbors a secret. For generations, members of her family have suffered from a curse, which causes them to transform into a dog every night at midnight for six hours after kissing someone. The only way to break the cycle is if the other person kisses them, while they are in dog form. Understandably, Hae Na avoids kissing anyone, but this naturally makes romantic relationships quite difficult for her. One night while intoxicated, Hae Na ends up kissing a fellow teacher, Jin Seo Won. But even more unfortunately, Jin Seo Won has a deep-seated fear of dogs due to a childhood trauma.
