Description:

After eight grueling years, psychology doctoral candidate Yu Nana's PhD thesis is rejected yet again, leaving her feeling utterly hopeless as her friends celebrate careers and marriages. Just when she believes all doors have closed, a bizarre opportunity appears by chance. Nana receives an unexpected email from Sasai Eisuke, a Japanese businessman who found her photo online. He claims Nana is the perfect double for his deceased fiancée, who, disliking photographs, left him with no visual memories. Eisuke requests Nana travel to Yufuin, a beautiful hot spring town in Japan, to pose for pictures in his fiancée's likeness. His extraordinary offer? A traditional Japanese inn, a ryokan, in exchange for her help. This peculiar proposition forces Nana to choose between her lingering despair and an unforeseen journey that promises a new beginning.
