Plot
Episode 1
Anna Jo (Han Ye-Seul), daughter of real estate giant Richard Joh and sole heiress to his incredible fortune, gets fed up with the dreary New York weather and decides to take off for Korea. Meanwhile, Billy Park (Kim Seong-Min), her unhappy husband, has been living in Korea for the past three months to stay away from her, under the pretense of working at Anna’s resort. Anna arrives in Korea. However, while driving herself home, she gets lost and ends up getting stuck in a deep ditch.
Jang Cheolsu (Oh Ji-Ho), who lives with his three nephews and runs a small, jack-of-all-trades interior/construction/engineering company, spots Anna’s car on the road. Cheolsu is a man who loves his money, and he quickly jumps at the chance to fix the situation for Anna, provided she is willing to fork over $30. While Cheolsu is struggling to lift the car out of the ditch, Anna wipes the mud off her shoes using Cheolsu’s coat.
While doing so, she mistakes the red paint on Cheolsu’s clothes as blood, and she goes even further by mistaking the mannequin in the backseat as a dead human corpse. Naturally, she is scared out of her wits. The lightning and thunder outside only help to escalate Anna’s fear and tension.
Meanwhile, Cheolsu misunderstands Anna’s behavior as a trick to steal money from him, which is understandable, as she is holding his coat with his money inside the pocket. Suspicious of her actions, Cheolsu slowly approaches the car, while Anna frantically searches for something to defend herself with. She finally locates a shovel. Cheolsu draws nearer and opens the door. Just then, Anna gives the door a swift kick, which knocks Cheolsu to the ground…
Episode 2
Billy, claiming he’s never been happy since he got married, asks his wife for a divorce. But Anna refuses, saying he’s the first and only family she’s had since she was 12 years old. She says the only way they’ll ever be apart is if she were to die.
While drinking whisky in her lavish yacht, a drunken Anna takes off her wedding band and throws it on the floor of the deck. Forgetting that she herself had thrown the ring, she then beckons at it to come back.
Slipping and sliding drunkenly over the deck of the yacht, she bends over to fetch her wedding band. Just then, the boat tips heavily to one side, forcing Anna to lose her balance and fall over the side of the yacht.
Meanwhile, emergency rescue workers retrieve Cheolsu from the sea after almost drowning himself in an attempt to salvage his work tools. The rescue workers take him to the hospital. After he recovers consciousness, Cheolsu swears revenge on Anna and throws a fit on his hospital bed. Just then, he hears a voice from beyond the curtains, telling him to keep it down. Realizing he’s heard this voice before, he pulls the curtains back to see a disheveled Anna, looking pale and hurt on her own hospital bed.
Cheolsu, by now uncontrollably angry, is about to rush her when Anna, looking quizzically at him, cocks her head to one side and asks, “Do you know who I am?”
