Daniel Bae (Charles Melton) is a poet who is taking a challenge to convince Natasha (Yara Shahidi) that love is real and it still exists because Natasha does not believe in love. Daniel takes it upon himself to get Natasha to fall in love with him in 24 hours.

In an interview with People Magazine, Yara explains the significance of this love story.

“We’ve witnessed on a regular basis that there has never been a moment in which people of immigrant families have had the peace of mind that where they’re going they’re able to call home. And because of that, it was really important that this storyline was made so serious and taken as seriously as the love story itself. It is not peripheral to the storyline.”
