After another code-blue incident with her sister, Bo Nui begs her fortuneteller to keep her sister alive. The fortuneteller tells Bo Nui that she has to sleep with a man born in 1986 (the Year of the Tiger), or her sister will die.

When she realizes that Je Soo Ho (Ryu Jun Yeol), the CEO of a game development company, is just the man, she tries to pursue him. Meanwhile, Gary Choi (Lee Soo Hyuk) is a tennis star who moves in next door to Bo Nui because he used to have a crush on her as a boy and pretends to be 30 to get close to her. Han Seol Hee (Lee Chun Ah), Gary’s manager, can’t understand his sudden interest in living in a small apartment and taking time off from tennis. Can Bo Nui find the right man and romance him for one night in time to save her sister? “Lucky Romance” is a 2016 South Korean drama series directed by Kim Kyung Hee.
