close LoginDoes a high school senior only have to study? A naive high school girls big plan to get married!
is a special love story of a high school senior at a girls school with an IQ of 98 but ranking first in looks in her school and of a poor college student studying law.
Eun-min meets Tae-kyeong, a college student, when she goes to the university library to run an errand for her sister. She instantly falls in love and lies to him about being a scenario writer and starts dating him. Tae-kyeong of course also falls in love with the charming Eun-min. However, Eun-min’s lie doesnt last long. Eun-min and Tae-kyeong meet each other again as private tutor and student…
Tae-kyeong tells Eun-min, who hates studying more than anything, that she should do something else if she doesnt want to go to college, and drags her to the HAJA Center. The reason she listened to him without any further worries is because she believed that he would not ask her to do something thats not right. She has faith in him. She thought that she would be able to live a different life if she were with him. Tae-kyeong was the first thing that had ever been only hers. Therefore, Eun-min decides to get married to him! The marriage was her first accomplishment. The ten-million-won-leased room in the basement that the in-laws found for them has no windows. But why worry about not having a window? One can just draw windows on the wall, place a bucket under the leak in the ceiling and hold a rat-catching event with Tae-kyeong in case there are rats! For some time at first, poverty was just a game for her…

Kim Tae-kyeong (College student 25) / Hong Kyeong-min
The second of three children of Kim Cheol-hwan and Jang Soon-ja.
He has always been lonely growing up with a strict and too serious father and a mother who was always busy due to hard living conditions. He made his own lunch box, studied on his own, and had to check the weather forecast to see if he had to take his umbrella on his own. Although he hasn't received an allowance since middle school, he managed to buy a computer and clothes on his own and even treat his friends so that they wouldn't realize how poor he was. He thinks that there's no need to blame his poor parents, because he can always get what he wants with his own efforts without burdening his parents. He proudly thinks of himself quite highly as a person. He himself believes that he is well-off compared to others, including his parents and siblings despite his background. With the right height and decent looks, his intelligence was also confirmed when he entered the best school in Korea. He is a young man with a fervent soul, confident that he has a good personality and good values. He's never in his life brought contempt upon himself and he's never been really scolded by his parents. He's been complimented by people in town and been recognized by teachers and friends. Fiercely independent and with a strong sense of responsibility, he is also very sincere and possesses reasonable values. Despite his young age, he is very strong, stable and has high self-esteem. |

Seo Eun-min (senior at a girl's high school 19) / Lee Young-ah
Second daughter of Seo Jin-heung and Jang Yeon-sook.
She thought she was special. She thought she'd always play in a flower garden. Never in her wildest dreams had she considered of putting mud on her hands, walking in mud or being looked down on by others. She is a bright, cheerful and fearless child who once thought that even car accidents that often happen to others would escape her! If the first hardship in life was her parent's divorce, then the second hardship came with her marriage to Tae-kyeong at an early age. She starts to have a terrible relationship with her mom after she gets married to Tae-kyeong and moves into a windowless ten-million won leased room in a basement. One can just draw windows on the wall, place a bucket under the leak in the ceiling and hold a rat-catching event with Tae-kyeong in case there are rats! For some time at first, 'poverty' was just a game for her... Although she thought all she had to put up with was the discomfort of being poor, she gradually comes to realize that poverty damages one's self-esteem and brings self-contempt. The poverty she experiences through her marriage to Tae-kyeong makes her grow up really fast. |

Seo Eun-joo (Eun-min's sister) / Choi Jeong-yoon
Scenario writer. When it comes to work she is very precise, but has no interest in housework whatsoever and doesn't have the slightest motivation to do it. Since she was little she liked to wear pants more than skirts, and had more boyfriends than girlfriends. Although she may seem a little wild due to her informality and over-confidence she is actually an honest woman with many lovely traits. She is easy-going and social and strongly dislikes anything serious. She will tape her torn skirt with scotch tape and staple buttons back on that fall off; she cleans her room once a month at the most. It's a disaster to the point that she has to jump over her belongings and kick anything that gets in her way.
