Mimi (Korean: 미미) is a 2014 South Korean television series starring Shim Chang-min and Moon Ga-young.[1] It aired on cable channel Mnet from February 21 to March 14, 2014, on Fridays at 23:00 for 4 episodes.[2][3][4]
The horror/mystery/romance drama is inspired by the 2007 Lee Myung-se film M.
Min-woo is a 28-year-old introverted writer of webtoons who has partial memory loss.[5] One day, he finds a memo on his desk calendar, and because of it, writes a new webtoon titled December 8, which becomes an instant hit. But as the webtoon gets even more popular, Min-woo feels pressure from work and begins to suffer from severe headaches. He strives to recover his lost memories from the time he was an 18-year-old high school student, especially those of his first love, Mimi, as he unravels their mysterious fate.[6][7][8][9]
The official theme of the series, Because I Love You, was performed by Wendy (Son Seung-wan) who later would debut in now-popular girl-group Red Velvet along other SM rookies, Kang Seulgi and Bae Joohyun (Irene).[16][17]
It aired in Thailand on PPTV beginning March 15, 2015, dubbed as Patitin Rak Raek Pob. ("ปฏิทินรักแรกพบ", literally: Love at First Sight Calendar).[18]
