What happens if you drop four "city boys" into the wilderness of Lapland, Finland? Cha Eun Woo, Lee Je Hoon, Lee Dong Hwi, and Kwak Dong Yeon are about to find out! Trading in their cushy apartments for a cabin in the woods, where running water and electricity are luxuries, they'll have to chop wood, bathe in a river, and more.

As the two begin to grow closer, they learn important lessons about life and love, including the importance of loving yourself.

Stress is no stranger to the members of Marketing Team 3 of the home appliance department at the Gaus Electronics HQ. The firm is a busy, multinational company, but this is a team that most workers dream of getting out of – and where chaos is no stranger! Some 10 employees make up the team. These include Lee Sang Sik (Kwak Dong Yeon), a man with a positive personality who often misjudges his coworkers’ moods, causing trouble as a result! There is also Cha Na Rae (Go Sung Hee), the hot-tempered assistant manager!

Also among their number is Baek Ma Tan (Bae Hyeon Seong), the heir of the owners of Gaus Electronics’ fiercest rival – Power Group. He was born with a silver spoon in his mouth, and has never known hardship. But he shocked his entire family when he decided to join Gaus as a junior employee! His polar opposite is Geon Gang Mi (Kang Min Ah), who comes from more modest origins and has always tried to pull herself up by her bootstraps – pushing herself to succeed at every step (although she does have a tendency to change when she drinks alcohol!). While they seem to have very little in common at first, they slowly begin to form a bond, with possible sparks of romance in the air! Will any of the marketing team succeed in escaping? Or will they eventually find a way to quell the workplace chaos?

This drama was based on a web-based cartoon of the same name by Kwak Baek Soo. The cartoon was serialized from 2011 to 2019.
