The story revolves around the four Hwang brothers (plus one estranged father) who live together on their family farm, Ojakgyo. The twist? Their father, Hwang Nam-pal, has been missing for eight years. When a sharp-tongued city reporter, Baek Ja-eun (Uee), loses her job and gets dumped, a series of chaotic events leads her to a contract marriage with the grumpy eldest brother, Hwang Tae-hee (Joo Won). Forced cohabitation + family secrets + rural vs. city clash = classic K-drama gold.
Fans of slow-burn romance, found family tropes, and anyone who misses the golden era of KBS weekend dramas.
