literally. After crash landing on Earth 400 years ago, Min Joon has diligently
observed humans for centuries, ultimately coming to cynical conclusions. On top

all the more reason to believe he's superior to everyone on Earth .
in the present he works as a
college professor and finds out that due to a comet coming in three months, he
will be able to return to his home planet. In the meantime he accidentally
meets famous actress Cheon Song-yi, the biggest Hallyu star in Korea, when she
moves in next door to his luxurious apartment and also turns out to be
attending his classes at college. Song-yi is an obnoxious, entitled attention
seeker, someone who became a top star in her teens and never learned how to
live a normal life. Min-joon finds out that Song-yi looks like the young girl
he fell in love with in the Joseon era. He tries to keep himself away from her,
as he needs to leave the planet..
For the first time after 400
years in Earth, this beautiful man from outer space starts to understand real love.

a star since childhood and was once crowned South Korea’s “national
sweetheart.” Her fame gradually vanished after one of her rival stars was murdered
by the evil guy in the show. Jun gives the character life by playing her as a
proud (about her beauty), creative and outgoing
girl , but vulnerable at times
“She is a perfect goddess in one minute, and
then in the next minute, she is a completely silly girl.”
