It isn't rare anymore to hear about a young single mother working hard to support her child. But what's so special about Hana is her powerfully positive attitude toward life, despite the difficulties of raising her 5-year old daughter Mimi on her own. After a brief 2-year marriage and severing ties with her parents, Hana begins working as a waitress at a local café to earn an honest living, but in a turn of events, lands an exciting job as a weathergirl on a television network, which leads to a string of fateful encounters. With just two short days of intense training, always-smiling Hana takes her place in front of the camera. As pressure mounts on her to perform professionally while still being a good mother for Mimi, Hana finds support and solace in supportive friends like Keito whom Hana leans on, sisterly colleague Marie who advises her on the art of parenting, and heart-throb TV producer Shujiwho emanates worldly wisdom. During the course of the story, Hana and Mimi develop a loving mother-daughter relationship with an unbreakable bond, although that bond is tested numerous times.

This success story of a single mother's struggles is certain to provoke laughter, tears and inspiration.
