This drama is interesting but so depressing.
It centers on three siblings who live depressing lives.
Yoem Ki Jung the eldest wanted to settle down but having problems finding the one. So she said that she would just date whoever ask her and not even for marriage as she is lonely.
Yeom Chang Hee has just broken up with his girlfried who he found to have other ‘boyfriends’ online. The ex told him that he was boring and old fashion. He asked permission from his dad to allow him to buy a car. He said that in the car is where the magic happens. Without a car, he can’t date or get married because he doesn’t have car where to kiss a girl.
His father told him that he was still getting over the fact that he had to bail him out before.
The youngest Yeom is Mi-jung, who was so lonely and just wanted to be loved. But her crush tells their colleagues that Mijung has pretty features, beautiful eyes, a lovely nose, and sweet lips but if you put them together somehow they are bland. Mijung is dull.
Mijung become more introverted overhearing the assessment about her. Her problem just got worst because her bank manager had told her that her total debt is 15Million won and to satisfy the bank, she had to pay 1.5million won monthly. Apparently, she lent the money to someone.
As it is, she was warned that they will be sending an official letter to her home address.
Mijung was in a panic so she went to see Mr. Gu who helps out on their family farm. She begged Mr Gu to intercept the letter for her as she did not want her parents to find out about it.

Mr Gu got her letter from the bank.
Anyway, one day, Mijung came home to find her father and mother looking harassed and worried.
It was because they found Mr. Gu bleeding profusely in the nose. Apparently. he fell down and bumped his nose.
But after he had just come out of the hospital, they saw him buying drinks.
So one evening, Mijung went to see him and asked why he was drinking every day.
He said that because he had nothing to do.
Mijung told him that he wanted something to take off his mind from drinking then he had to worship her.
Worship her and make her feel whole again. Her previous boyfriends have been scums.
At work, Mijung was asked to join a club but she refuse to.
Episode 3
Mr Gu declined to worship her because it was too random. He said that she doesn’t even know his name. He said that he was only undergoing some dark moments so worshipping someone is not on his immediate agenda.
Mr Gu told her to sort out the money issue with her ex.
Mijung got a test from her ex-boyfriend to stop bugging him or he would not pay the debt altogether.
Episode 4
Mijung how lonely Mr Gu looks so she asked him whether he wanted her to worship him to make him whole again.
Finally, Mijung joined a club at work. She chose Liberation Club which surprised her co-workers.
When they asked why she wanted to join the Liberation Club, she said because of liberation.
Mr Gu offered to get the money back from her ex but Mijung turned down the idea because doing so will be stooping down to her ex’s level. Strange girl.
