Plot

Woo Shin-hye is a divorcee who lives with her vain mother and two beautiful daughters — the older one who cares deeply about her image but is secretly a slob, and the younger who is intelligent and seemingly kind, but has a sly and cruel personality. They are filthy rich thanks to Shin-hye's beauty salon. Yeol Suk-hwan is a widowed and enthusiastic single father who works at a Youth Centre to support his poor family. He lives with his greedy but kind mother-in-law, and three children — two sons, the oldest who is a bread errand boy and is bullied in school, and the youngest who is an innocent but slow child, as well as a smart, strong but homely daughter who others mistake for an older woman.

Shin-hye and Suk-hwan unexpectedly fall in love and marry. Now that the two families live under the same roof, conflicts constantly arise due to differences in personalities and lifestyles. However, they work their problems together and help each other out, successfully or not, and they eventually become a real family.
