Min Soo (Yoo Yeon Seok) is a dog-lover who has a beloved puppy named Runni. He is devoted to Runni, but looks to be forced to part with his pet when he meets and falls in love with a woman. He proposes marriage to her and she accepts. But she has a dog hair allergy, which means he will no longer be able to live with Runni. Reluctantly, he decides to look for a new home for his dog, and enlists the help of his older cousin Jin Kook (Cha Tae Hyun).

Jin Kook is a down-on-his-luck cafe operator whose business has just failed. But he agrees to help Min Soo find a suitable “guardian” for Runni. This task proves to be much harder than it first seems, though – the candidates who come forward all appear to be experiencing chaotic challenges. But during the course of the selection process, they get into all sorts of trouble – a fact that leads them with an ever-expanding collection of dogs to care for. Eventually, they have not one but eight pooches to look after. With time running out, will Min Soo and Jin Kook ever find a new home for their pack of puppies?

In South Korea, MT stands for “Membership Training” – and it is customary for groups of students, or sometimes workers, to head out to the countryside during MT to socialize, mix with new people, and play ice-breaking games that help bring people together. So what will happen when five young actors and actresses apiece from three recent hit drama series titles get together? All will be revealed when the cast of “The Sound of Magic” (2022), “Itaewon Class” (2020), and “Love in the Moonlight” (2016) head off on their own MT retreat!

It’s a star-studded line-up of stars – the likes of Park Seo Joon,&nbsp;Park Bo Gum,&nbsp;Ji Chang Wook, Hwang In Yeop, Kwon Nara,&nbsp;Ji Chang Wook, Kim Yoo Jung, and Ahn Bo Hyun are all onboard. But when these actors all get together, fun and games will certainly ensue as groups of actors who haven’t seen each other for months – years in some cases – reunite along with their peers to cook, compete in games, and even operate an outdoor pub. Will the actors stick in groups with their former co-stars – or will new and exciting friendships be formed? Only time will tell!
