Description:

Heartbeat follows the extraordinary journey of a vampire who passionately yearns to experience life as a human. His century-long slumber, meant to complete his transformation, is tragically interrupted a day before its full completion, leaving him in a perplexing half-human state. He soon encounters a pragmatic modern lady whose life is singularly focused on survival, exhibiting no trace of compassion for others. Her initial reaction to his unusual existence is one of complete indifference. Despite their starkly different personalities and desires, fate intricately intertwines their paths. This captivating drama delves into whether this mismatched pair—a half-human vampire dreaming of humanity and a hardened woman prioritizing only her own survival—can bridge their vast emotional gap. Will they ultimately discover love and learn the profound meaning of caring for each other against all odds?
