Be Melodramatic — Season 1
Stepping into their early thirties, three close-knit friends find themselves at a crossroads – chasing ambitious dreams within the relentless world of entertainment. As they hustle to build their careers, they're also grappling with the complexities of love, the weight of expectation, and the ever-present challenge of balancing personal aspirations with professional demands.

Im Jin-ju, alongside her companions Lee Eun-jeong and Hwang Han-ju, shares the story of how their lives intertwined to form an unconventional kinship.

As Han-ju’s world welcomed a fresh face, she remained perpetually vigilant regarding a pressing matter of fried chicken. Meanwhile, Jin-ju embarked upon a revealing exploration of JBC Station.

A promising agreement takes shape between Son Beom-su and Jin-ju, while Eun-jeong embarks on a fresh endeavor, and Han-ju finds himself free from solitary striving.

A night of drinking brought Beom-su and Jin-ju’s paths together, intertwining their lives in unexpected ways. Meanwhile, Eun-jeong found herself intrigued by a possible participant for her next documentary project.

With a plan for revelry in mind, Jin-ju and her companions headed out, only to find themselves drawn to a promising new restaurant that proved an excellent alternative. Meanwhile, Beom-su was steeling himself to persuade JBC to greenlight t…

When a serious challenge arose, Jin-ju would remain utterly motionless, whereas Han-ju met it directly—by granting their adversaries precisely what they desired.

Each romance unfolds from a declaration—a thing, it seems, remarkably difficult to put into words. While Jin-ju wrestles free of her creative impasse, Beom-su finds himself developing an affection.

Jin-ju and Beom-su found themselves at odds, weighing the merits of two competing production houses. Meanwhile, Han-ju and Chu Jae-hun’s quiet dinner was unexpectedly broken by the arrival of a most unwelcome guest.

A nervous tension settled over Beom-su as a bright, ambitious junior colleague began to commandeer the production team. Meanwhile, Eun-jeong found herself acutely noticing Hong-dae’s lack of presence.

Whispers about Jin-ju’s history, both recent and long ago, began to circulate swiftly through the writing community. Meanwhile, a coarse and abrasive director tested Eun-jeong’s composure.

Whispers began to drive a wedge between Beom-su and Jin-ju. Meanwhile, Eun-jeong’s brother, Lee Hyo-bong, urged her to consider seeking professional help.

Beom-su confessed what he felt, only to find his words sparking an unexpected argument. Eun-jeong’s imagined scene of Hongdae abruptly shifted, taking on a jarring and unsettling tone.

An acutely embarrassing moment created tension between two people, yet unexpectedly strengthened the bond between others. Despite some setbacks and complications, the production continued its progress.

Seeking respite from the heat, Beom-su, Jin-ju, Han-ju, and Jae-hun set out on a brief excursion. Meanwhile, Eun-jeong visited an orphanage and encountered another supporter there.

A sudden shift in the production timeline, accelerated by an unforeseen incident, drew Beom-su into a relentless series of meetings—a development that left Jin-ju increasingly frustrated.

Jin-ju settled in to craft fitting conclusions for her characters’ stories. In turn, those closest to her found a sense of resolution and embraced what lay ahead.
