When violinist Anna Sun accidentally achieves career success with a viral YouTube video,she finds herself incapacitated and burned out from her attempts to replicate that moment. And when her longtime boyfriend announces he wants an open relationship before making a final commitment,a hurt and angry Anna decides that if he wants an open relationship,then she does,too. Translation: She's going to embark on a string of one-night stands. The more unacceptable the men,the better.
That's where tattooed,motorcycle-riding Quan Diep comes in. Their first attempt at a one-night stand fails,as does their second,and their third,because being with Quan is more than sex - he accepts Anna on an unconditional level that she has just started to understand herself. However,when tragedy strikes Anna's family she takes on a role that she is ill-suited for,until the burden of expectations threatens to destroy her. Anna and Quan have to fight for their chance at love,but to do that,they also have to fight for themselves.
