Geumje 1992
A mother who is a newbie in the village of Geumje was bragging that her daughter was so pretty she could easily win the Miss Chili Pepper contest.
Her audience of ahjummas were not exactly impressed. They told her that Geumje is famous for its pretty women. Past winners of Miss Chilli Pepper are real knockouts. They then pointed to a woman carrying a big plastic sack of green soft toys.
The woman who was bragging was surprised at how beautiful the woman was who got more stunning as she approached them to buy some eggs.
When the beautiful woman left, the ahjummas gossiped that despite being so beautiful, Han Jeong Suk has a hard life. She is married to a loser so Han Jeong Suk had to take many side jobs to supplement her husband’s meagre salary.
Han Jeong Suk worries about money especially when their young son started school. Their son had to use a hand-me-down backpack meant for a girl but Han Jeong Suk said that it was unisex. She felt guilty about it as her son’s schoolmates have new shiny and appropriate bags.
Han Jeong Suk works as a housemaid at O Geum Hui’s house. O Geum Hui is married to a pharmacist, who was rather sexist and wanted his wife to be circumspect and quiet. But sometimes he also wanted for her to cultivate some hobbies and make friends with other ladies married to businesmen for networking just like Heo Jeong Ja whose husband is the president of the golf club.
Life for Han Jeong Suk was hard but it got harder when her husband lost his job after beating up his supervisor at the factory he worked for.
Han Jeong Suk worried about not being able to pay their rent. Thankfully she managed to save a little for rainy day. But when she went to get it, the money was gone. She found out from her drunk husband that he had invested their savings. They later had a big bust up so her husband left their house and went to stay with their married bestfriends.
After a few days, Han Jeong Suk went to their friends’s house to see her husband. But she had the shock of her life after she let herself inside the house and found her husband in fragrante delicto with their female friend. The marriage was over.
Desperate for money, the rather prim and proper Han Jeong Suk now willing to try anything including being a salesperson of sex toys and rather skimpy lingerie. This was the time when the villagers relies on BHS and the popular film was The Silence of the Lamb so it is still very conservative.
Han Jeong Suk and Seo Yeong Bok had gathered ladies for their first sale party at O Geum Hui’s house. It was full of curiosity, hilarity and shock especially when a vibrator started vibrating and got passed from hand to hand of screaming ladies.
Heo Yeong Ja was so shocked at the crudeness of the sex toy, she reported Han Jeong Suk for prostitution after the party. The police came to investigate as Han Jeong Suk and Seo Yeong Bok were packing up their products. The police were rather surprised at what they saw but did not spot any male at the house so there was no further action taken.
Han Jeong Suk and Seo Yeong Bok need to make money fast so they need to familiar themselves with what they were selling so they can be conversant of their product especially when O Geum Hui curiously asked if using a vibrator really sends you to heaven.
Han Jeong Suk said she will find out herself and let her know the next day. Aww she did find out and there were fireworks in the sky🔥🔥
Han Jeong Suk and Seo Yeong Bok formed their salesperson team with the addition of O Geum Hui and Lee Ju Ri.
Prudish O Geum Hui managed to convince her husband to allow her to join the sales team after she wore a skimpy satin nightdress which sent Choi Won Bong into ecstasy and they had fun that night. LOL
Meanwhile, a policeman who has just returned from abroad had joined the local police. He was a germaphobe and standofish. He is handsome and well monied. He rented a rather remote house that overlook the village. He insisted that he wanted someone where with a basement.
In his basement he started his investigation with a wall papered by photos of every one in the village.
