Synopsis

Oh Geun-tae is a country boy with a booming baritone who is discovered by aspiring singer-songwriter Lee Jang-hui and thrust into the bustling world of Seoul's iconic folk music cafe-C'est Si Bon. Unwittingly, he becomes the third member of the yet to be debut "C'est Si Bon Trio" and the begrudging buffer between two rival musicians-the vocal genius, Song Chang-shik and the hearthrob, Yoon Hyeong-ju. Amidst the smoke and chatter of C'est Si Bon's youthful clientele, they meet aspiring actress Min Ja-yong and find themselves completely bewitched. Will their muse inspire them to create legendary music, or tear them apart before they even begin?
