## Executive Summary & Cultural Positioning

Melting Me Softly is a 2019 South Korean television series that aired on tvN. The story follows Ma Dong-chan and Go Mi-ran, who were participants in the 24-Hour Frozen Human Project, an experiment intended to freeze them for one day but which instead kept them frozen for two decades.

The series stars Ji Chang-wook, Won Jin-ah, and Yoon Se-ah. To survive after waking up, the characters must keep their body temperature above 30°C. The production was created by Studio Dragon and produced by Story Phoenix.
