Plot summary
Several story-lines take place within the drama at the same time that ultimately all link up to one another.
Jin Joo and Jun Woo
Nguyen Jin Joo (
Though their relationship had begun with a mutual agreement that it was a fake marriage and that they would secretly live as friends (which meant not sharing the same bed), Jin Joo's genuine effort to support him touches Jun Woo's heart and they eventually fell in love. With her mother's illness worsening, Jun Woo quickly begins to help search for Jin Joo's father.
Jun Woo, Ji Young and Young Min
Kang Jun Woo (Song Chang-eui) met Ok Ji Young (Choi Yeo-jin) at Seoul University and they were engaged. However, after Ji Young goes to Chicago to study abroad, she abruptly breaks off their relationship, not telling him it was due to her mother's financial problems. Jun Woo shortly rushes to Chicago and has a violent encounter with her that resulted in Ji Young calling the police. They violently beat Jun Woo and lock him up in an American prison for three months. This severely traumatized Jun Woo, causing him to develop a serious heart condition and melancholia. In an attempt to improve his health, Jun Woo's mother flies to Vietnam in search of a wife.
Three years later, Ji Young marries Kim Young Min (Song Jong-ho). Although unaware of the family feud, Ji Young hides her past with Jun Woo, as well as her strained relationship with her wayward mother, whom she is ashamed of. This ultimately leads to the destruction of her marriage.
Han Sook, Ok Kyung and Sang Il
A lifelong cold war exists between Jung Han Sook (Kim Mi-sook) and Yang Ok Kyung (Kyeon Mi-ri), starting from high school where Ok Kyung steals Han Sook's boyfriend, Kim Sang Il (Im Chae-moo), and marries him after faking a pregnancy. Their two sons Young Min and Young Soo grew up in a luxurious household while Han Sook's family struggled. The feud intensifies when Han Sook discovers that Young Min's new wife is Ok Ji Young, the woman responsible for Jun Woo's condition.
Though from the outside Ok Kyung and Sang Il's marriage seems happy, there is a damaging past. 22 years ago, Sang Il had abandoned his family to go overseas, not contacting them for 2 years. This led to Ok Kyung to fall into depression and started drinking. When he returned, they resume their marriage as if nothing happened, but Ok Kyung secretly dreads what might have happened during his absence.
Sae Mi and Young Soo
Kang Sae Mi (
Their relationship finally blossoms after he helps her win a competition for a hotel gift card for Jin Joo and Jun Woo's honeymoon, although Young Soo had mistakenly thought it had been for them. Sae Mi and Young Soo remain oblivious to the family feud for most of the drama series, but when it is discovered, they are inevitably affected.
