Hello, My Twenties! — Season 2
A year has passed since the events that closed out the first season, and life at the Belle Époque is marked by both bittersweet farewells and fresh beginnings. The close-knit community grapples with loss as they bid adieu to one of their own, while simultaneously opening their doors – and their hearts – to a new arrival who promises exciting possibilities and potential romances.

The Belle Epoque quartet found themselves with little recourse but to lower their standards considerably.

A cold dread seized them all. Jo Eun, Ye-eun, and Eun-jae recoiled, but it was Jo Eun who seemed utterly shattered by the unexpected presence of the stranger in their bathroom. Panic flared, a sharp, suffocating wave washing over the room.

Seeking respite, Jin-myung persuades the housemates to apple picking, using Ji-won as a convenient pretext. But beneath the surface of this outing, a shared need for a moment of peace underlies everyone's desire for a change of scenery.
When Eun-jae returned from her meeting with Jong-yeol, she was greeted by a small gathering of friends. Meanwhile, Ji-won made a visit to her elementary school art teacher.
The fragments coalesced in her mind, a complete picture of childhood memories finally forming. Meanwhile, Jin-myung wrestled with the weight of the promise she’d made to Heimdal.
