Ko Nak-Joon is on earth doing jobs and gets back to heaven once he’s done. There, his wife, Hae-Sook is about to come down to Lee Young-Ae in a dream to give her the lotto numbers. She goes down there wearing wings like her husband said and tells Lee Young-Ae the lotto numbers. She makes sure she memorizes them well too.
Lee Young-Ae goes outside and puts down the lottery numbers. As she’s about to submit the numbers, Jang Gi-Hwan appears in front of her and she chases him, missing the chance to win the lottery. She screams about it and is very upset, but later, it seems a romance is blooming between them as he buys her shoes so she can chase after him until he pays back what he owes.
Ko Nak-Joon suggests they should reincarnate, and Hae-Sook happily considers the role.
the center director goes down to earth and runs into Nak-Joon. The two share drinks, and he reveals he and his wife knew each other in many past lives, too. This deeply upsets Nak-Joon because of what he sees.
The couple meets with a program that follows people who reincarnate. Nak-Joon keeps lying, saying he’s on board with the idea. Eventually, the two prepare for their reincarnation and exit heaven. On the way, Nak-Joon carries Hae-Sook right to the end and explains he won’t be reincarnating this time with her too.
He reveals that they’ve actually met 23 times already and he’s given her a hard time in all of them. Thus, he wants her to live happily and better without him down there. The two cry a lot, saying goodbye to each other and eventually, only Hae-Sook chooses to reincarnate.
Heaven is now boring to Nak-Joon without his wife, but he continues to live.
Some 70 or 80 years pass, and the reincarnated Hae-Sook is on her deathbed surrounded by her loved one. As she passes, Nak Joon who is now a grim reaper, appears in front of her and she asks if she lived a good life, he says she did really well.
