Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©

Moon Joo-Ran (Kim Tae-Hee) grew up in a wealthy family. She is now a housewife and married to Jae-Ho (Kim Sung-Oh), who works as a doctor. They live in a house with a yard. Her peaceful daily life is abruptly shook when she notices a strange smell in her backyard. This leads to Moon Joo-Ran eventually investigating her husband and meeting Chu Sang-Eun (Lim Ji-Yeon). Chu Sang-Eun lives a completely different life from Moon Joo-Ran. She grew up in a poor environment and, even now, suffers from financial difficulties. She lives in a shabby rented apartment with her husband Kim Yoon-Beom (Choi Jae-Rim). Kim Yoon-Beom works for a pharmaceutical company. Sang-Eun is subject to domestic violence by her husband Kim Yoon-Beom. Her life is completely miserable. One day, she receives a phone call that Kim Yun-Beom is dead.

Mara Jan 16 2025 4:09 am I'm now in Episode 3 but the pacing is so slow and long-winding, and there's lots of staring and nothing going on, maybe to stretch the story. I started watching this because of Lim Je-Yeon (while waiting for the next Tale of Lady Ok episodes) and the gorgeous Kim Tae-Hee. But then after a few suspenseful scenes there's nothing much going on. I hope that after this episode things start to speed up and be more exciting.

ling Aug 30 2023 9:00 pm sorry to say but its so boringgg

Josephina Emike Jul 21 2023 2:17 pm Very depressing and boring movie ,lesson learnt :in marriage men should be careful what they indulge in…

Dutchess Jul 16 2023 7:16 pm I like kim tae hee, but i watched ep 1,kinda boring, sorry

Nia K. Haryanto Jul 14 2023 9:06 pm Nice drama. The theme is unusual. Unique and exciting. Always like Kim Tae Hee's drama. Hopefully there will be more different dramas like this again. And waiting for Kim Tae Hee's drama again. Bravo!

Pat Jul 14 2023 12:47 pm Not a fan of the cinematography. The movie felt slow I ended up skipping scenes while watching. This would be a more interesting watch if it was a movie instead. Thank goodness there are only 8 episodes.

Creme Jul 14 2023 9:16 am It was unbelievable how jae ho died just falling off few stairs.

Kristine Jul 14 2023 7:49 am I thoroughly enjoyed it. How in heck did that baby survive? I really don’t understand how the woman got prison time for killing her husband. He tried to kill her, he tried to kill the other woman. In America that would be Self Defence. I don’t think the woman pushed down the stairs was a minor. She was a con. I don’t actually blame him. Loved the battered woman’s mother. She did her role really well.

Cath Jul 14 2023 6:04 am I was hooked with this drama until the ending. Worst ending.

Leon Jul 13 2023 7:01 pm Everythin seem so good, beautiful... this the very end... absolutely wasted the whole series.... and bad, lame ending

TV Jul 12 2023 11:21 pm total flop, cinematography wise it was really good but for me it kinda tried to be a copycat of little women where the poor chasing the rich for money relating it to a death of someone. so meh :/

Umaira Jul 11 2023 10:04 pm This is the winner of My Fav K-Drama this year Cinematography, writer, actresses, all aspects And the ending so smooth so peacefully.

sf Jul 11 2023 1:24 pm It was a good drama, but the end disappointed me. Personally, I would have ended it in another way.

Manda Jul 11 2023 5:16 am Wow! First episode. It already blew my mind. I keep on pin pointing who did this and that. That creepy house from parasite really makes the people there crazy and insane. ???. Every epeiaode makes you think who the real culprit is.

Bengi Jul 10 2023 4:37 pm Kim Sung Oh's act is impeccable, the other two actresses are great but he is really touching nerves in scenes where he is talking with Chu Sang Eun, I love the scene where they were sitting in a coffee, the show is going well but it is so slow that some people might find it boring, but I really enjoy it, can't wait for the final episode.

bearme Jul 09 2023 7:09 am Lim Jiyeon range is insaneeee it's amazing I didn't remember her character from the glory at all.

Kristine Jul 08 2023 10:44 pm Wow. Really enjoying this. Very artsy. Twisty. Only seen clips of Glory but she is playing a different character. Quite a range. Very talented. Music done well. Feel for the neighbor lady across the street. But there are more episodes. Maybe she will change too? Can someone tell why security gets called and not police for a domestic?

Mao Jul 06 2023 8:51 pm Wait, it'll only have 8 episodes??

Uli Jul 06 2023 6:41 am Aaaaahhh the cinematography is so beautiful, the angle shot, the bgm it's so dark. But I have to disagree with most of the ppl ... I don't think LJY plays different character from her recent drama 'The Glory', same facial expression and that lip biting. It's like Park Yeon-Jin live the life after she get out of the prison. Sorry.

L Jul 05 2023 1:01 pm Even lee soo min deserves no sympathy, just 15 and this vile. She jumped infront of his car, he insulted her whatelse he would have done, ne t she firces her way into his house lying so shamelessly and provoking hus son for no reason. She got what she asked for.

sf Jul 05 2023 12:10 am I'm afraid I have to disagree with how the drama goes. I blame the criminals but I hate the blackmailers and Chu Sang-Eun is a criminal and blackmailer too. Vile creature and I do not feel any pity for her.

k Jul 02 2023 11:23 pm Why do I feel like Seungjae the son has something to do with joo mi murder? Also what about dr park’s father? Did he kill yoon boem?

Hunh Jul 02 2023 7:12 am Joo ran is the most irritating character ever seen in dramas. Infact lets blame the drama directors or producers who in attempt to get artsy went stupidly overboard in how choppily they showed her character that they almost turned the viewers into psycho cases. Okay in 1st ep we see joran has some bad past fair enough, that was portrayed in the most choppy way where one scene appears then suddenly second weird scenes appears as if there is no flow in scenes. Lets say viewers will tolerate this torturous editing in 2 episodes but it has been 4 episodes out of 8 episodes now and we still don't know what is her past, why is she so miserable and psychotic, why she suspects her husband all the time like why is she always in this constipated state, atleast explain it now instead of throwing in disjointed scenes because this part should not be suspence at all it is just part of her background and explanation why her character is so tortured and should be disclosed clearly to make viewerd understand why she acts this way, but no all they give are broken flowless string of scenes jumping from one point to another.

This is why am not entirely blaming the character for being so frustrating because much of it seems to be the fault of makers who presented her in this badmanner.

Jo ran is frustrating how she is always miserable and looking for something. Woman why are you so sus of your husband, and even if you are why you want to collude with a hideous looking another sus woman to go after your husband. Like you are not trusting the man you lived with for decades but ready to trust a crook woman and on top of all she seems to be partbering with her against her own husband. It is like she isn't just mentally ill but is extremely stupid as well.

It is so clear that sang eun killed her husband. I feel that jo ran's son is a murderer that was why he was sympathizing with the neighbour murderer woman.

Now lim ji yeon, making hideous faces and overacting doesn't mean good acting. Her character isn't even supposed to be so vile as she is presenting it.

k Jul 01 2023 3:04 am The real culprit is Jooran because she has mental illness. Her memory seems mixed up not in order. I think husband tries to cover her up.

sidie Jun 30 2023 1:32 am These Two women were born for each other!!!

In Jun 30 2023 12:47 am I think Chu Sang-Eun will end up living with Moon Joo-Ran and family..

Ar Jun 28 2023 5:35 am The plot is amazing and already anticipating for the next episodes. However, the pace is just toooo slow and the movements are like intentionally slow..

Ms.bong bong Jun 28 2023 2:00 am why i think joo ran is the culprit. moreover, her psychology is also disturbed and her seems to be suffering from delusions. She could have killed soo min, then her husband covered everything up. #justopini

Happy98 Jun 27 2023 6:20 pm 8 episodes are healthy amount of this kind of drama. Idk how many times i got suffocate along the episodes. I can't get rid Kim YoonBeom crawling scene in JooRan's dream. The terrific when you thought "thank god it's a dream" but you still dreaming and it got worst. The camera work, the editors are doing great, but the dialogues could be better imo.

Billion Jun 27 2023 2:38 pm Sang eun's character's psychoticness seems very artificial and forced to me maybe because it has become a trend to show abused characters this way in dramas that it seems caricaturish, like we just saw her being abused by her stupid husband few times and then next we see her always acting like an aggressive lunatic giving hideous slanted smiles, we dont see her having a scammer past like her husband but suddenly she is moved by his words "those people deserve punishment" and is now going after others blackmailing.

Tintirintintinn Jun 27 2023 9:21 am Great cast. Esp the two women! Great acting.

Mai Jun 27 2023 8:56 am Everyone busy commenting the actress, they forget about how the story, the cinematic and the sound can be so dark and triggering. Every role in this drama has mental issue. I rate this 8, hope this has good and clear ending so i can give 9/10.

G Jun 27 2023 6:30 am I want to watch this movie but too disgusted just a glimpse of Lim Ji Yeon. Maybe its better that she just end her career.

My Jun 27 2023 3:06 am I don’t know maybe it my second time watch Lim Ji-Yeon and don’t feel a thing she might be a good actress to other people but to me l don’t seem it. Sorry l might make other not happy about comment but is just my opinion.

Guuyui Jun 26 2023 9:08 pm It is quite hardcore dark drama!! It is good but if you are already in bad mood, this will make you feel worse!! But you can't stop watching it!! It has only 8 eps but now I think that is a good thing for our mind!!

K Jun 26 2023 7:54 pm My advice is never eat apple like lim ji yeon , the way she was eating it would ruin teeth and gums also majority korean celebs have front upper teeth veneers done, dunno how she ate like this if she had veneers, she would have had to visit her dentist for damaging them.

Norizam Jun 26 2023 5:45 pm So happy to see Kim Tae Hee..... always love her acting and she is so beautiful too..... cant wait to watch the coming episodes.... why is it only 8 episodes.... bcos normal Korean drama will have 16 episodes.....

Jaz Jun 26 2023 3:25 pm This is definitely not a drama that you can just watch in the background while you play with your phone. If you don't get it, that means you're not paying attention. It's one of the best shot and acted drama in a long time. It's absolutely beautiful and Lim Ji Yeon is excellent.

sf Jun 26 2023 12:46 pm Sang-Eun is disgusting. Everything about her makes you vomit.

Kaz Jun 26 2023 10:33 am I feel exhausted when watching episode 3. Don't get me wrong, this series is one of the best at cinematic, but this should be in a movie like Parasite, especially for camera angles like that. We don't usually need a TV series like this because it's no entertainment.

Gjlas Jun 26 2023 2:31 am It is a bad environment in that family!! Her son can grow up like his bad father hmmm not good at all!! He seems obey to his dad ans drink milk even though he can not eat it!! Dad is creepy!! Sang Eun killed his a**hole husband for her baby son's sake!!

Kristine Jun 25 2023 10:48 pm The house is outside Seoul. Not necessarily expensive.

Truth Jun 24 2023 8:26 pm @Zkxpaj oh that makes sense, because the house seems worth 4-5 million dollars atleast. Prolly palstic surgeons or some very popular specialists can make this much.

One thing was very weird everyone was feeling the smell but why not the husband? It seems kim tae ri's mental issues are a resukt of meds her husband feeds her.

Adrian Jun 24 2023 7:15 am Anyone else having a hard time finishing an episode in one sitting? I fall asleep in the middle that I watched the two episodes in 5 days. The cinematic style is gorgeous but it's also distracting and confusing. So confusing that I read spoilers and recaps on various threads. I cannot tell if the scenes were flashbacks or some dream sequence. I am not as intrigued as I should be. I'm still finishing this, I love the actresses involved. Maybe they'll pull a surprise on the coming episodes.

IzzMH Jun 24 2023 4:03 am I want to watch this drama but I have a hard time to even finish episode 1. Cane here just to check if the drama has 12 or 16 episodes and I'm glad I checked. Will try to be patient and finish this (because of the good review from people who read the novel)?

Zkxkapj Jun 23 2023 8:23 pm I know that famous and good skilled doctors can be super rich but he could bought that huge house with his dirty money that he earned from pharmacy company!!

Truth Jun 23 2023 2:49 pm The cinematography is definitely very godo and production quality, the house and sets but story telling is poor, not that story is bad, but the way scenes are woven togetger it feels so disjointed and frustrating. Like sudden jumps or sudden scene changes kind of thing. Specially when it comes to kim tae hee'scgracters,makers were going for artsy feel and went overboard into something. The show has both it's highs and lows.

1st ep was the most confusing one because you wouldnt even know what was happening.

Doctor's house is so beautiful, was just wondering could someone like him albeit he is rich but not super rich afford this mansion, this is first tine seeing such a huge lawn for a house in korean dramas, in kdramas mostly lawns for villas are small and only huge when they are giant estates of charbols and thenthose lawns are not lawns they are huge fields like lets say in Mine.

Maria Errica Lim Jun 22 2023 11:07 pm The drama is so mysterious and intriguing. The sound and the cinematography suits the storyline of the episodes. The house looks so haunting, no wonder this was chosen for the movie parasite. So interesting, that the actress and the point of view shots helped me analyze the episode better, I could almost imagine the stench that comes from the yard of Kim Tae Hee. She could really deliver her acting skills with not much lines but with the expression and aura she exudes. Looking forward to watch the episodes unfold, as this stars my new favorite visual to watch. I started to notice Lim Ji Yeon on Glory and she definitely rocked her character there. Then I became so interested that I searched for more of her dramas. O loved her character at High Society, she definitely oozed chemistry with Park Hyung Sik. I also watched Obsessed and her character is surprisingly different and the acting was perfectly delivered in a different level with Song Seung Heon as the one so obsessed with her.

Beauty Flower Jun 22 2023 8:56 am This drama made me curious what she will doing in the next episode.

ari Jun 21 2023 7:12 am is the house from Movie Parasite?

Lia Jun 21 2023 4:35 am @Little Peony : Yess I totally agree with you!! My theory too!! But that pink phone is too strange it has some secret photos and bad clips hmm!! Maybe dirty husbands did something wrong behind their dear wives and now they must pay for that!! And our two main leads will work together for revenge haha

Little Peony Jun 21 2023 4:30 am My theory Sang Eun killed her husband since she put something on his drink She drove her husband car. She blackmail Park Jae Ho using the photos from the pink phone.

Park Jae Ho did not meet Kim Yoon Beom on that night but he went outside to dig out the corpse and buried in another place.

Lin Jun 20 2023 11:23 am @Nikki wdym? It's totally a different house. Although it does have the same vibe.

BEATRICE Jun 20 2023 7:46 am It somehow reminds me of the movie Stoker. Not storywise but the overall construction of it.

BEATRICE Jun 20 2023 7:43 am The cinematography of this drama is movie worthy! Every shot is beautiful. Plus, no need for unnecessary music in the background which shows the actors acting skills more. If you're a mediocre actor this drama will expose you. So far I'm loving it.

Niceguy Jun 20 2023 6:35 am @Nikki : Yess, you are right!! And maybe is the house and neighborhood area in drama The World of Married too!! It is a rich area for sure!!

Nikki Jun 20 2023 4:58 am Their house in this series is the house in the movie Parasite! Stark and stunning, perfect setting for the mysterious.

Dissu Jun 20 2023 12:23 am Who killed?? The biggest question!!!

Ludy Jun 19 2023 9:33 am The plot and trailer feels interesting and exciting. With the same director of Mr. Sunshine, The King of Eternal Monarch, and 2521. Hopefully this drama will be a hit despite of that it will be air on ENA channel.

Aoi Jun 19 2023 4:40 am I hope that after this drama, people will not look down on normal housewives!! They may look meek and nothing special, but they can kill you someday hahaha

Gyan Jun 19 2023 2:22 am It is finally aired today!! Hope it is good

Ritaz Jun 18 2023 6:25 am I don't know why but I see that they are really look alike each other

Kaasw Jun 15 2023 6:32 am Kim Tae Hee is really so beautiful for her age!!! I think this role will suit her well!!

Ian Jun 13 2023 10:53 pm Kim tae hee's long hiatus and being a mother made her a better actress she is now. Her acting seems matures and deep since she came back. Wouldve been a better fit as main lead of the Glory. Hye kyo's was just week and boring. Good thing she has fame which land her her baeksang award. Anyway, you'll see what I'm trying to say since this show has Lim Ji yeon, try to compare.

Dryween Jun 07 2023 11:29 pm When your enemy at first finally becomes your ally at last!! U go girls!

Kdrama9jafan Jun 01 2023 3:17 am I think I'm going to follow this series.It looks interesting Yoo??

managerkuk May 31 2023 11:29 am the funny thing is lim ji yeon is slowly becoming the 4th member of the troika

SHK KTH JJH - Waiting for drama.

dk May 28 2023 6:57 am Oh why just 8 eps?!!

alala May 24 2023 11:53 pm Oh I think that This will have many twist plots for sure between two women!!

Rotairi May 23 2023 4:42 am Ok I already see sistermance and chemistry between our two main leads okay!! :p

piok May 22 2023 9:04 pm I see that Ena station really makes dramas with women rights main actresses recently!!!

me May 22 2023 2:19 am Looks promising and interesting. I hope it holds up with the two powerhouses of Kim Tae-hee, and Lim Ji-yeon.

Lee May 21 2023 11:11 pm Lim Ji Yeon has now acted with both married couple Kim Tae Hee and Rain. That notion is flying over everyone's head.

ayubisf May 17 2023 2:43 am Finally a drama comeback for Kim Tae-hee after 3 years of wait. Can't wait to see her duet with Lim Ji-yeon who also starts to get more recognition after her duet with Song Hye-kyo in The Glory!

pursuitofc Apr 17 2023 2:29 am Looking forward to both queens performance especially Lim Jiyeon. I started becoming a fan of hers because of The Glory and her acting was beyond excellent. Can't wait for what she gonna bring to the table with house with a yard
