Park Jae-chul (Choi Bool-am) is an old sailor and a father to three sons and one daughter, Park Dong-gyu (Park Sang-won), Park Young-gyu (Cha In-pyo), Sang-ok (Seo Yoo Jung (ko)), and Park Min-gyu (Song Seung-heon). Park Dong-gyu is working man and carries the responsibility as the eldest in his family. He's in-love with Yoon Soo-kyung (Choi Jin-sil), and they work together to overcome all difficulties to get married. Park Young-gyu dreams of nothing but money and marrying a rich girl one day. While serving in the military, he tricked a naive country girl Mi-sook (Kim Ji-young) whom he promised to marry. Mi-sook becomes blinded by love and provided all his needs. Park Sang-ok is the only girl in the family. She's a college student. Their youngest Park Min-gyu is quiet and introverted. He distances himself from his family and people because he's troubled by the fact that he's from another mother. Though he's a talented painter, he doesn't use his talent much. His brother Park Young-gyu and the rich girl Shi-yeon (Lee Bon (ko)) always stand by his side and push him to be better.
