What happens

Missing You (Korean: 보고싶다; RR: Bogosipda; also known as I Miss You) is a 2012 South Korean television series starring Park Yoo-chun, Yoon Eun-hye, and Yoo Seung-ho. It aired on MBC from November 7, 2012, to January 17, 2013, on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 21:55 for 21 episodes. Middle school sweethearts Jung-woo and Soo-yeon were separated in a horrifying tragedy that continues to weigh down on them as adults. Now a guilt-ridden detective, Jung-woo has been desperately searching for Soo-yeon for years, but when he crosses paths with her again, she has already become someone else with a new identity. The show's depiction of the rape of the teenage female protagonist (albeit off screen) caused controversy among viewers and netizens. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
