Wake Me Up, My First Love

Episode 1

A prince is dodging an arranged political marriage, refusing to go home until he finds the love he lost. Somewhere across the world, he holds on to what's left of her — a photo, a memory — and steels himself.

Meanwhile, New York's most feared mafia, the Scorpion Gang, carries a reputation more nightmare than fact. Word on the street paints their boss as something monstrous. So when a nervous visitor is told the boss wants to see him, he can't hide his shock: the boss is a woman.

That's the first crack in the legend — and the first hint that Alexander and Cathy are circling the same missing person without knowing it.

Episode 2

In the family's grand house, the housekeeper lays it out cold: Cathy, leader of the Scorpions, has been in a coma since a car accident three years ago. Alexander's exceptional genetics make him the chosen candidate — cooperate in donating sperm to create an heir.

He's appalled and refuses on principle. But the offer keeps sweetening: a personal nutritionist, one month of care, generous compensation. When the pressure doesn't let up, he flips. Fine — he'll do it. But first he wants his phone back, because he's got something to show them.

Episode 3

Alexander finally stands before the comatose boss — and she opens her eyes. He blurts that she doesn't look like a mafia boss, then realizes she's awake and furious.

Cathy assumes he's some sick intruder and threatens him with the Scorpions. Michelle bursts in, overjoyed: the boss is finally awake. Then comes the awkward explanation — this man was brought here to help her have an heir.

Cathy is disgusted that they'd pick a random man for this. Michelle insists it was the elders' order, worried she'd never wake. Cathy's answer is flat: Alexander can leave. But when he tries to go, she stops him.

Episode 4

Cathy has a new rule: nobody learns she's awake. Alexander isn't going anywhere until she says otherwise. He promises to stay quiet — she trusts promises about as far as she can throw them.

Then the story turns tender. A memory surfaces of the accident three years ago, of someone searching for a lost love, of a promise exchanged: no matter what, they'd find each other again.

Back in the present, Michelle warns that the elders are getting bold — someone brave enough to move against Cathy. The pieces start clicking: the crash, the coma, the convenient heir demand. Who benefits if Cathy never wakes?

Episode 5

The answer sharpens. The three elders believe Cathy has no hope of recovery, and with morale at rock bottom, they're planning to seize leadership. They've been scheming for years — and the accident may not have been an accident at all.

Cathy's done hiding. She orders Michelle to organize everyone for a meeting tomorrow, refusing to wait even one more day. There's no time to be careful.

Elsewhere, Alexander is still hunting for the girl from his past, a searching voice cutting through: he's traveled halfway across the world for her. He has no idea she may be closer than he thinks.

Episode 6

Alexander learns the hard way not to walk in without knocking — Cathy's house, Cathy's rules. He apologizes, but she's already moving, giving him a short window to change before dragging him somewhere.

"Where are you taking me?" She doesn't repeat herself. He changes, nerves fraying, every word he said playing back in his head.

There's a quiet, aching beat underneath the tension: memories of a bench, of having everything and losing it. Cathy hands him something to wear, checks the fit, and then it's time to go. Whatever she's planning, Alexander is now part of it, whether he likes it or not.

Episode 7

The meeting is a trap for the doubters. The elders sneer that Cathy can't possibly host anything after three years — what's she going to do, give a pep talk from a hospital bed?

She walks in instead. She calls out every whisper made behind her back, mocking how quiet they go in her presence. When they call her a hospital patient unfit to lead, she makes her offer: pick your best man. If he can beat her, she'll step down.

Michelle panics — Cathy can't fight this guy. But Cathy stands ready. Anyone else?

Episode 8

Cathy wins the brawl, and the elders immediately move the goalposts. Fighting doesn't count in the mafia — any fighter could do that. So she flips it back: are they rebelling? The Scorpions have rules, and guns don't get pointed at family. Michelle is told to stand down.

Then a new condition: the leader must produce an heir within three years. Cathy points out the suspicious timing — the accident came right after she took over. Could there be a traitor among them?

Her countermove stuns the room. Everyone, meet Alexander — her fiancé, and the future father of her child.

Episode 9

The room erupts. The future of the Scorpions in the hands of a nobody? A disgrace to the whole gang? Alexander quietly notes the more they push back, the closer he gets to freedom.

Then a rival arrives: Andrew, leader of the Skull Gang, who claims he didn't need to solve their engagement while she was in a coma. He rushed over the moment he heard she was awake. Marry him, he says, and her problems vanish — a Scorpion-Skull alliance no one could challenge.

Cathy isn't moved. After what he's done to her, does he seriously think she'd forgive him? Andrew insists he's always loved her.

Episode 10

Andrew doesn't take rejection well. He warns that Cathy is basically a corpse and he won't honor a marriage to a dead woman. Michelle fires back that he can't abandon the boss when she needs him most.

Cathy refuses to forgive him — this bastard put her through hell while she was fighting for her life. Andrew pleads family and responsibility, then turns ugly: fine, don't blame him for what happens next.

The threat lands, and the room tenses. The line has been drawn. Andrew has shown his hand, and Cathy's next move will decide everything.

Cathy just woke up and already has a gang, a fake fiancé, and a rival gunning for her — start the binge and see who blinks first.
