Seoul: Before its major success at the Tony Awards earlier this year, where it won six awards including Best Musical, the South Korean original musical "Maybe Happy Ending" had been a beloved show in its home country for years. Initially conceived through a local cultural foundation's program in 2014, the musical was lauded for its innovative setting, fresh concept, and subtle emotional depth upon its 2016 release in Seoul.

According to Yonhap News Agency, the musical has now been adapted into a film by director Lee Won-hoi, retaining its Korean title but known in English as "My Favorite Love Story." The film is ready to meet audiences on the big screen, preserving the delicate charm of the original's quiet and thoughtful storytelling.

Set in near-future Seoul, the story follows Oliver (Shin Joo-hyup) and Claire (Kang Hye-in), two obsolete helper robots living in separate apartments. Discarded by their human owners in favor of more advanced models, they lead isolated lives, longing to be useful again and rediscover their purpose.

Their unexpected connection begins when Claire knocks on Oliver's apartment one day to use his charger. Though the two robots are not programmed to feel love or deep emotions, their awkward small talk becomes more comfortable as they spend time together, exploring the city and listening to music.

As their feelings for each other grow, they embark on a road trip to Jeju to find James (Yoo Jun-sang), Oliver's former beloved owner. What starts as companionship blossoms into a love that neither fully understands.
