I've been watching a lot, a lot of Korean dramas lately. And, oh how I love (and hate) all the cliches that come with Kdramas. You know them: Four characters: two males, two females. An OTP and the two secondaries that make the OTP miserable - cause they can't get a clue. The bitchy secondary girl that doesn't know what she had until she loses it. The crazy or sweet secondary guy that just wants the love of the female lead. The male lead that wants secondary girl, and fights with the lead female nonstop - but only to cover up his feelings. The third-level characters that are all either jerks or sweethearts. You know the cliches.

Well, because I've been watching so many Kdramas, I've started to think: "Hey, I could write that!" (And, I do need the cash.)Sadly, I'm not a writer and I'm not Korean. So, I leave this plot summaries to you: for your own joy.



Park Ji Ah wakes up one morning to find her father missing. Not only is he missing, but so is their 6,000,000 won - the money had they had been saving for something important. Not believing her father could abandon her, Ji Ah decides something is amiss. To get more information, she visits her father’s friend, Ahn Hwan Gyu, who leads her to the rich Na family.

The Na family are the heads of the Paq Group, one of the largest companies in Asia. The family has three children: oldest son Dong Won has just returned from Boston, middle son Si Won, who spends most of his work days and nights having affairs with women from the company, and youngest daughter Hye Won, who is trying to finish university and find her place in the world.

Choi Hae Sook is the newest co-worker that Si Won is having an affair with. Her boyfriend is Nam Kyung In, a man of poor means who fakes being rich in order to hang onto Hae Sook.

Second Summary/Same Story

Oh, there are many more. It's a pity really.
