In the midst of their wedding preparation, Anna breaks up with her fiance, when she learns that he has repeatedly been cheating on her during their four years of intimate relationship. A while after this devastating separation she meets Adam, an old family friend who is back in town for a short vacation. As the couple connect and start dating each other, Adam finds Anna a far more interesting woman than he remembered. This is because he learns she is able to taste colours, emotions and even events. She claims that when she was in love, she could physically taste happiness in her mouth. While Adam falls deeper in love with Anna, he experiences strangely intertwined sensations of reality. On the other hand, downhearted Anna hesitantly is not able to reciprocate Adam's crazy affection and tries to keep her distance. Adam's madness grows his dual sensory reaction into a level that he becomes able to taste colours spontaneously. But when Adam tries to open up about his symptom, Anna thinks he is mocking her which makes them get in to a fight. As Adam is confused by his love for Anna, as well as his newly self-discovered symptom, Anna decides to put an end to this one-way relationship and pursue her happiness elsewhere. She marries her colleague, but even that cannot bring her back the taste of happiness until she finds herself pregnant and feels the joy of unconditional love of the child.
