First, it’s big spoiler, but YUmi ends up married with another guy, and it isn’t ahn bohyun character, woong or jinyoung’s character babi yoo. 

There is several differences between webtoon and the drama for eg: chae ugi name is different, because on the webtoon, his name is wook. Sia is saeyi. For season 1, it seems they tried to change the character name to make the viewer (who is the webtoon reader at the same time) doesn’t know the whole story.

Okay without further ado, this is the overall story of YUMI CELL, webtoon version:

We know already about who is Yumi Kim as an office worker. At the beginning of the story she develops a crush on Wook (chae ugi). She meets her new team member Ruby, who is also interested in Wook. Obviously this annoying girl name Ruby might be already everyone detestable character from the drama. Who doesn’t dislike her fake attitude? But later in the webtoon, she is actually pretty sweet and become yumi’s best friend. 

One day Wook talks with Yumi and alludes to her that he's not into girls. Wook also sets Yumi to go on a blind date with his friend, Woong Ku. (Played by ahn bohyun) Initially, she didn't see herself with Woong.  Woong first impressions doesn’t appealing at first for Yumi, yet his kind action steal her interest in the end. 

After the hospital trip they officially begin dating. They also have regular common fight just like any other couple. In the webtoon, woong has friend name Sia (or sae yi in drama). She is also intervene too much to Woong’s and Yumi’s relationship in the webtoon. Still, her figure isn’t the main reason of the problem between Yumi and Woong’s relationship. Yumi successfully addressed the issue and Woong also is being firm and scold Sia’s wrong action, drawing a line. Keep in mind that it’s woong’s first relationship, so he is pretty much newbie and still has a lot of things to learn.

Woong doesn’t have any interest in marriage. Although later, Woong changes his mind. But woong’s business went bankrupt, yet his ego won’t let him to leech into Yumi’s kindness. He wasn’t being honest to Yumi about his struggles and Yumi wasn’t attentive enough to realize the change of Woong’s mood. They’re eventually broken up (Later, yumi learn a skill to be attentive, so she can tell when Babi changes his feeling or feels disturbed. Yumi learn a few things with her failed relationship with woong)

They dated for 1 year 4 months and 1 day.

During the same time, Yumi met Babi Yoo. After her breakup with Woong she found herself having feelings for Babi. She saw that babi also become single after seeing him no longer wearing a couple's ring, that he used to wear for so long. Yumi also was worried that if she confessed people would think Babi made her break up with Woong. She was also worried about how Eda would feel as she also had a crush on him. After some denial, Finally she confessed and the two started dating. 

Yumi and babi dates like a couple in Korean drama, Babi is a perfect boyfriend that is so caring, attentive  and able to see Yumi’s emotion clearly. One day, Yumi decides to pursue her dream as writer and resign from her job, thus she no longer have income at 33 yrs old. (Her mother is angry because of this) Because of that her cheapskate cell is on her job to control yumi’s expenses. Since she needs money, she sell an electric rice cooker that she won from writing contest online. Woong who is now work in a new company after his company went down, want to buy an electric rice cooker to steam a bun. Yumi and woong eventually met again when wong buy Yumi’s rice cooker.

At that time Yumi has realized the real reason why Woong want break up with her and has regret that she can’t be more attentive about the hints and accompany him in his down time as gf, but also blame him that he can’t be honest. In the end she is already moved on and now in relationship with babi, while woong is still single and can’t move on from yumi. (Even sia or saeyi tried to seduce him, woong ignores it, saeyi gives up to pursue woong and date another man she eventually broken up too because she know she still loves woong). In other side babi gives yumi his complete trust to end her pass relationship cleanly, because he realize that it’s the correct thing to do based on his experience. ( babi was once in woong’s position)

Yumi reject woong’s move to get back together coldly and inform him that she is happily dating now. Woong gets heart broken.

One day, Babi inform yumi that he gets promotion as manager. Because of that he needs to move back to Jeju. They eventually decide to have long distance relationship. Since yumi is still unemployed and she need money to buy a flight ticket to Jeju (to keep up their relationship), she decide to start a part time job in a book store. In there she met a loving couple who helped her with her writing. But Yumi get depressed because she failed in every writing contest. She compares herself with her same age friend who has become a manager or a chief by now.

Yumi thinks it’s the time to accept reality that writing might not for her, so she accepts an offer to work in her previous company, get her old job back for 2 months as replacement for her friend’s maternity leave. Babi finally moved back and they can date again in person. Babi has been a caring and warm boyfriend.

Woong finally has become so successful that he is the ceo of a big game company now, he has a sport car & big house. Meanwhile, the novel that Yumi had sent to a contest caught the eyes of Daeyong ahn, the chief editor, who saw potential in her work. He tried to give yumi a contract. Later Dayeong realize that Yumi is his first love, but Yumi doesn’t even remember him.

Yumi’s dream is finally comes true. At first Dayeong ahn has a hidden motive too, as he used to like Yumi back in university life. He tries to pursue Yumi without knowing that yumi is in relationship. When he knows and see babi as yumi’s boyfriend, he is given up and falling in love right away with yumi’s colleagues, they ends up together. Yumi meets Control Z (Yumi’s illustrator). They ends up as friend from enemy. Yumi shared to him that babi never once get upset in almost 2 years of their relationship. But control Z said that 2 yrs is the time when a man slowly shows their inner feeling or true self. He also thinks that it’s weird that yumi hasn’t get a single fight with babi yet. Yumi thinks: isn’t it because her relationship with babi is casual?

In between, Babi decides to try to carry on his family’s business as tteokboki restaurant seller. He opens a small store and hire a part time worker, who is a female university student name Daeun. She is cheerful, bubbly, positive, energetic and clumsy, but cute. Since they’re always together, eventually babi unconsciously falling to her charm. One day yumi asks babi whether he thinks daeun is cute, which babi can’t deny and said she is cute. Yet, with his smooth talk, he follows up that yumi is lovely.

Babi realizes that he often acts too kindly and make people misunderstood his kindness gesture as flirting. His sweetness (to other girl) has been a main reason of  his pass break up. One night, the part time girl went home without jacket in cold night. Babi is a gentleman, he offers a jacket to her. He pause and realize that yumi might not like it, thus he is hesitantly give his spare jacket in the store and not something he is wearing. Yumi accidentally met the part timer and realize that it’s babi’s jacket. She confronts him, babi admit it’s his jacket, but makes excuses about the reason why he lend it. He said it’s because he needs her not to be sick because the store is busy and he can’t run it alone if the part time girl is sick. It might be true, but deep inside something is changing. He also questions his reason himself. He also doesn’t write an “I love you” messages like he used to. 

Days pass, yumi gets busy with her writing career and babi also is busy running his tteokbokki store. Yumi realize there is something makes babi feels gloomy. (Remember she learns to be attentive from her failed relationship with woong). Babi seems less enthusiastic when met yumi that day, she asks what happened. He said because it has been busy in the store since he needs to train a new part timer from the beginning since daeun quit. (Daeun quit because as helpless romantic, she is falling in love with babi, so she decides to quit because babi already has girlfriend)

Yumi asks why his old part timer quit (daeun), but babi also want know too and doesn’t have an answer. Yumi feels somethings is wrong, her intuition tells her something else so she confronts babi to tell his real feelings. Babi tried to avoid it but eventually admit that he feels sad because the part timer quit. Yumi realize babi might have like another girl unconsciously. Because of that yumi decides to end their relationship, in their first ever fight.

Babi and Yumi, after dating for 1 year 11 months and 2 days, breakup. Yumi decides to focus more on her writing career. Her love cell is disappeared and now her writing cell becomes her prime cell. Meanwhile Woong, who also works with Control Z, reunites with Yumi after a long time. (Actually woong tries to set up himself with yumi under Control z excuse)

At first woong want to boast his success in front of Yumi. Later, woong realizes he still have lingering feeling toward yumi and decides to pursue her again. Yumi isn't looking for a relationship at the moment though. At that moment Yumi doesn’t have any feeling toward Woong and she is just barely broken up with babi. She lost her love cell and her writer cell becomes the prime cell. Yumi isn’t capable to love. In other side, Woong finds out that Yumi has broken up with her bf, thus he is no longer hesitant to approach yumi.

Babi comes back to yumi and says he wants to try things again, he apologized and yumi ends up agreeing to start dating once more, albeit hesitantly. She rejected Woong’s approach and advise him not to waste anymore time or waiting for her. Yumi said woong is a good man, and hope someday he met someone good. They eventually decide to stay as friend. Yumi and babi is getting back together, but they end up act dishonest toward each other. There is no longer excitement in their dating life.Later, yumi realizes she is not in love with Babi anymore and breaks up with him for good. Babi accepts it because he is already can feel that. Babi ends up get into relationship with his part time girl and decide to get married after dating for 1 year and several months. Meanwhile since yumi love cell is disappeared, she doesn’t have an urge to start a romantic relationship and decide to focus on writing. Daeyeong ahn the chief editor, was appointed Soonrok Shin as yumi’s editor. Yumi didn't mean to but she found herself with a crush on Soonrok. Eventually Yumi and Soonrok began dating in secret because they are coworkers. Into the future, Yumi and Soonrok get married, and Yumi becomes a famous romance novelist.
