Ocean Likes Me

Han Ba Da is a talented chef with a dream: opening an udon restaurant right on the beach. But his crippling shyness makes serving customers nearly impossible, leaving his little seaside shop empty. Enter Tommy, a free-spirited, homeless musician with a cheeky grin and a head for business. After a chaotic first meeting involving a car accident, Tommy insinuates himself into Ba Da's life, helping him transform the struggling udon stand into a local success. As they work side by side—cooking, singing, and watching the endless ocean—a tender romance blooms between the grumpy, anxious chef and his bubbly, persistent muse. But when Tommy's own musical ambitions call him away, Ba Da must learn to let go and trust that the ocean will bring them back together. A healing, wintery romance about self-discovery, found family, and the quiet beauty of second chances.
